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

I'm leaning toward Title starting with U or spell it out. I don't have any books set in Japan or written by a Japanese author.

Are we ready to talk about Stop 4?

Detour - Read a book with a title starting with U or

Spell Out - Hiroshima, Japan or

Read a book set in Japan or by a Japanese author.

Thanks Sophie for all the work you're doing for our challenge enjoyment. Really looking forward to making a start tomorrow.

Thanks so much. All good to go..

I hear ya, Sammy...🤣🤣🤣. Let the (friendly) games begin...

Hi guys,

Sorry to hassle, I guess we are a competitive bunch. Looking forward to the challenge. 😉

Finished for I - - 3 stars.

For the question - Character with a name such as Joy, Harmony, Grace - does it have to be main character? Can it be a secondary or unimportant character if they still have dialogue and interact with the main characters? I'm thinking of a personal assistant for example.

Oh you organised girls! I've gone as far as looking at the tasks, those 100 pointers are quite tricky.

Great reading Abir and Namita. I'll be getting to my I book this week.

Okay, I gave in and signed up. Powerless to resist..sigh.

It's taking a lot of willpower not to sign up...

I'll take the I with

I'll vote for spell it out for this round. I like a good book set in Russia but don't have any on the TBR unfortunately at the moment.

Thanks for that Sally. That helps a lot.

Finished my three names -Susan Elizabeth Phillips and added it to the spreadsheet.

Yes, me as well. It's annoying, isn't it. Hope the Goodreads Powers That Be are fixing it.

I've got my three names up next - - Susan Elizabeth Phillips
