I only read the first 4 chapters but already love the different styles the author has for each character - it's really interesting how much you can transport with style of narration - just wow!
I started the book two days ago and love it!

That was the same I had to do on my iPad and my eReader - now I can use my online library and two of my shops are using the same format as well and usually it's working fine :-)
I downloaded my copy as well and now I'm looking forward to our discussion :-)
Sally906 wrote: "I did that - but having problems downloading - my kobo ap keeps saying I should be signed into adobe - but can't find where to do that in my app.."In my my eReader I had to add my Adobe ID in the option area - if you can't find it try to look up online a handbook for your eReader or if it's only an app I would contact the support and ask how to do it.
I'm going now to my local hot spot and hope I can download my copy without any further issues.
I have the same issue here in Germany - I already sent a message to their service email address - let's hope they can solve it! I would really hate to miss the buddy read and I don't have the money right now to buy it :-(

Wow, that's great, thank you!
Perhaps I'll do both - just for fun and only counting one for the challenge - we'll see :-)
A Question for both Finish This Sentence Challenges:I read much in German and Polish would you prefer I provide a literal traslation of the title (if different from the English - no link possible in that case) or that I use that of the English edition (with a link)?
It would be pretty bad if I couldn't use the books from the library or from my family and I'd need at least twice as long to complete the challenge :-(
It was so much fun last year - I'm in again :-)Paint your house with books
