Lisa - (Aussie Girl)’s Comments (group member since Sep 26, 2012)

Lisa - (Aussie Girl)’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

Yes, I sent Abir a PM on 15 May but haven't received a reply. I don't think she has been active on Goodreads for a few months, I hope she is okay. I know she was really busy with work and study and hopefully that is taking a priority now.

So Louise and Namita still reading for Stop 7. Do we want to start thinking about stop 8, the final one for this Itinerary?

Detour - Read a book with top shelves 2005 or the stop is Palmas, Brazil.

Missed out on doing the DQ's for Mort... but looking forward to reading it anyways. It will be my first discworld book.

Finished . On shelf and s/sheet.

Is this okay for - Men only ( one okay) on cover with something blue?

- One man with a blue sky.

Finished . On shelf and s/sheet.

Great going Tina. I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad I didn't get to do questions for the Backroom BOM. Sad for not getting the extra points but glad I don't have to think of how to tactfully phrase naughty questions..hee hee

Finished I actually used the kindle edition. On shelf and sheet.

Finally finished this one - . Really recommend it if you love historical characters brought to life in a good story. 5 stars. On shelf and sheet.

And now for something a bit lighter on - for one of the more unusual tasks.

Enjoy your Eurovision Karen. Bummer that (view spoiler)[ Australia is already out of the finals.. (hide spoiler)]

I spent the day with the oldest two grandkids, 7 and 5, ferry, Aquarium, Wildlife Zoo and lunch at Pancakes on the Rocks. Nanna is exhausted but we had a wonderful day. Time to curl up in bed with my book.

Everyone enjoy your weekend.

Finished - 5 stars. Great series with horrible crimes but the developing character relationships are awesome.

** This one fits 90 - Author initials AM but have used the Bingo Jelly Baby - it is in the text when a character tells an anecdote about how he gorged on them as a kid - "haven't been able to look at a Jelly Baby ever since." Thought it would be a trickier one to get. I'll be reading another Angela Marsons next month so if it's free I'll do Task 90 then.

Don't worry, Tina. It fitted some other tasks. 😊

Celia, I'd say the satire or the footnotes but probably leave it to the Capts to fit where they think best.

I’m changing my C book to another one that I am currently reading - and have reserved one of the A books seeing as my R has been pinched!"

Great thanks Maddy> Could you go through the steps so I can *Maybe* do it next time.. (No promises I'm a spreadsheet newbie, LOL)

Help.. I started to add the letters of Stop 7 to the spreadsheet. How to you add more lines for letters? I couldn't work it out? One of you spreadsheet wizards do your magic, LOL.

I have sent an message to Abir to see where she is at as well.
