Laura’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

That makes too much sense, Stacie. 🥴

I don't see a link. The only links are see are to the official spreadsheet.

It counts. The challenge ended this afternoon (1:00 pacific time), but we have 24 hours to update spreadsheet.

I finished my last 2 in the knick of time. I’ll get the spreadsheet updated later this afternoon.

I read City of Bones. It has been on my TBR for more than a year.

It's not on the spreadsheet but it is on my shelf."

I'll get that added right now. :)

Quick update on the mini: We have completed 3 of the sections!
Book Chains, Squares, and Pairs!

For the stories, we'll throw anything that doesn't fit elsewhere, and see what we come up with.

We need 4 more read by a team mate during Tower teams, but before the mini started on July 15. Michelle read some short Bride Of ... books which you can find on the Overflow Books tab if you're interested.

11 more books that have been on your TBR for at least a year. These can't be re-reads.

4 more books with an instrument on the cover or in the text.
1 more book with song lyrics or a poem quoted in the text.

1 more ball outfit on cover and 1 more party location on cover.

I would think that works.

Countdown to the end! I think that's mid-afternoon on Monday for me.

I'm not Lisa, and, admittedly, I just read what she tells me to for Warships because I don't have a clue what we're doing, but her attack for Round 5, message 88, doesn't include F8. So I think we're good.

I'm here!

What are you all reading this week? What tasks are you reading for to help us finish strong?"

Some for the series chains, some for the read by team member, some for the squares, and some for my Turf Wars team, that I'll fit in here where I can. :)

If you click on Top Shelves, Vanessa, it has to be on the first page of tags.

Anyone who likes a good non-fiction, The Woman Who Smashed Codes: A True Story of Love, Spies, and the Unlikely Heroine who Outwitted America's Enemies works for Feminist, and I really enjoyed it. If it comes down to it, I may listen again.

Better you than me! 😂

I’m reading one for another challenge that works for war!

G2 - Dystopian

We have 15 books in our Bank. We could probably attack Week 6 with at least three on each one and still have a significan..."

I'll see what I have this evening.

I bow to you superior understanding of this game!

I’ll have my other Space Opera book finished late this morning. I can grab the other Middle East book we need. I should be able to finish it before I go to bed tonight.
