Allison Ann’s Comments (group member since Oct 19, 2014)

Allison Ann’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

I'm trying to finish off my last couple of SRC books and I'm reading the most inane YA fantasy romance of my life and the stupidest chick-lit garbage ever and I'm sad. I wish they at least worked for a goal here but unfortunately not.

Sometimes reading feels like work. :D

How about The Raven Boys for that one?

Nice points Donna!

Updated to here.

We have a lot of books where people's hands are literally tied up, but none with this meaning of the phrase. Bummer.

NEW GOAL -- Read a book where at least 5 people are killed.
Used - where an entire jet full of people are killed.

NEW GOAL -- Read a book where MCs attends a concert/art exhibit/theater show.
Used Kari's - rock concerts.

NEW GOAL -- Read a book with the phrase "hands are tied" in a book.

Anyone? I'll be home in about half an hour, I'll go through some books then.

I needed a quick read tonight and forgot to bring a book so I read this - . It has an ocean on the cover so I'll add it to the goals.

I couldn't believe we didn't already have an ocean cover. Of course the last two books I read before the challenge started were ocean covers, so I guess I was thinking about those. :)

I bet mine is worse than yours. Check out this beauty - it doesn't even have an author, just a publishing company. :P

I actually have to read my lowest rated book soon for another challenge. I don't know if I'll beat you or not - we can have a race. :D

Maybe I should become a book editor, there's clearly a need for good ones out there. It's sad enough that authors can't seem to catch their own spelling, grammar and word use errors, but if the person who is being paid to fix those errors before publication can't do it either... Well I once again weep for humanity.

I actually read my second lowest rated book already for this challenge. :(

Used The Brethren for the 2001 goal.

NEW GOAL -- Read a book shelved (listed on the first page of the "top shelves" of the book) as available - plurals and minor spelling variations are acceptable.
Used The Doll Maker

NEW GOAL --Read a book that is on your "to read" shelf with the lowest GR star rating.

I'm good and I'll finally be done my 2001 book by tonight. Had to make more cheesecake last night and I'm on my way out now to deliver them before work. At least no midnight delivery this time. :) And the bears are sleeping.

Have a great day teammates.

Absolutely Ariane. :)

Updated to here.

Yay Tara! Let's hope your slump is gone. And the text of your book starts with "the" in case we get that goal again. How far south are you in Illinois? Most of my relatives live up near Rockford but we have some guests from further south.

PRESENT GOALS

LALINE -- Read a book with a ship on the cover

ALLISON -- Read a book shelved (listed on the first page of the "top shelves" of the book) as 2001 - plurals and minor spelling variations are acceptable

DANIELLE -- Read a book with a picture frame on the cover.

DONNA -- Read a book with a pumpkin on the cover.

ARIANE -- Read a book with the name of the tarot card "The Hanged Man" in the text or title.

Covered the "horror" goal.

NEW GOAL -- Read a book shelved (listed on the first page of the "top shelves" of the book) as 2010 - plurals and minor spelling variations are acceptable.
Used The Titan's Curse

NEW GOAL -- Read a book with the name of the tarot card "The Hanged Man" in the text or title.

I have a book that will work for this goal, but I have to read 4 books in sequence before it. So maybe someone will find it earlier.

Luckily enough we don't get snow much."

Snow is the best part of winter. I love snow!
