Oh no worries! ;) u have a tough job. Im going to go sleep a little. I love both reading and sleeping so much I wish I could just do them both simultaneously heheh.

Yup sure, I understood that.... just another option for them :)

Kazen wrote: "Possible Chain B (all these people already have books, but it provides jumping off points):

A Darker Shade of Magic - Pragya
Magic of the Angels - Ray
Angels Burning - Karin

We can add on books that begin with MAGIC, ANGELS, BURNING, and maybe even MOON with a bit of rearranging.

"

I can doBurning Up

I wont be able to start my book until tonight since I have guests coming and an incredibly cute toddler!

I haven't stated any book-list but if u visit my 'to-read' folder, you could pretty much use any of them. (there has been 3-4 that i wasnt able to get and some r marked 'unpublished tbr' other than that just let me know what u want and i'll answer asap as to if i can get them.

Ah I love waking up to see so much activity :) it means it's almost time to read!!

Cool! That way we can see who hasn't gotten a book yet and make sure that they do. I'm off to see if I can get in 1 more book in 1hr 38mins ;)

....Before.
Before I Fall (Pragya)
Fall with Me (Toni)
Me Before You (Annabeth)
You....."

Thanx Ray :) I added it to my post so it will be easier to see whats there and add to it. I'm keeping both so if books can be added to either ones we'll have a 5 or a 7

Oops didnt see ur msg since hadnt refreshed the page.. :) Who else hasnt gotten a book in yet?

So far these are the String of 5s that we have (i think)

Primal Bonds (Ella) / Bonds of Trust (Kazen) / Trust No One (Karin) / One to Keep (Margaret) / Keep Me Posted (Ray)

Before I Fall (Pragya) / Fall with me (Tori) / Me Before You (Annabeth) / You own me (Karin) / Me talk pretty one day (Ray)

String of 3s
Firefly Hollow (Tori) / Hollow city (Pragya) / City of thieves (Lory)

Before I Fall (Pragya)/Fall with Me (Toni)/Me Before You (Annabeth)

Any add-ons?

Woohoo! Our first string of seven!!

Finished
Babygirl and the Mean Boss by Pepper Pace
1st July
136 pages
Contemporary

We could also do it this way, Ray, if u dont want blood:the stuff of life-->
EITHER
Broken Promise(Karin)-->Promise of Blood (Rose-longer book, but I've been dying to read it)-->Blood Money(Tammie)-->Money for Nothing(Brianna)-->Nothing but Trouble (Ella)

OR

Broken Promise(Karin)-->Promise of Blood (Rose-longer book, but I've been dying to read it)-->Blood: The stuff of Life (Ray)-->Life after Life(brianna)-->Life and Death: Twilight Reimagined (Ella- also very long-700+ pgs)

Anyone have a book beginning with TROUBLE?

Kazen wrote: "I like this idea - fighting books won't be the easiest to come by :"

Yes especially since they have a specific type of fighting/ boxing requirement. i have books with lots of fighting but its just gangster mafia books and they don't qualify.

Ray (user2637) wrote: "Another option for this would be
Visibily Broken (Ella)-->Broken Promise (Karin)-->Promise of Blood (Rose-longer book, but I've been dying to read it))-->Blood Money (Tammie)

And then something starting with "Money". That would get you a shorter book, Ella. "

I could do that but it would still be good if someone got 'visibly broken' since its a MMA fighting based book and would make a good coaching book for challenge 4 of olympics

Ray (user2637) wrote: "Rose wrote: "We should all just read cozy mysteries. They always end/begin in death, mystery, or murder. lol"

Hahaha, I have 7 that end with "murder" and 1 that starts with it."

I have one that begins with Murder... maybe we should start a 'Murder connection' :)

Anyone who takes books from Netgalley, I just got a new one that would make this 5 (but since i've already got a book here I cant use it-- >Visibly Broken

It would then go in front of
Broken Promise(Karin)-->Promise of Blood (Rose-longer book, but I've been dying to read it))-->Blood: The stuff of Life (Ray)-->Life and Death: Twilight Reimagined (Ella- also very long-700+ pgs)

Ray (user2637) wrote: "Adding to make a triple into a quadruple.

Kazen................./ Karin.............. / Margaret......./ Ray
Bonds of Trust / Trust No One / One to Keep / Keep Me Posted"

We've got 5 Books!!
Primal Bonds (Ella) / Bonds of Trust (Kazen) / Trust No One (Karin) / One to Keep (Margaret) / Keep Me Posted (Ray)

Rose wrote: "Broken Promise(Karin)/Promise of Blood (Rose-longer book, but I've been dying to read it))/Blood: The stuff of Life (Ray) also works"

Okay here's my first tie-
Broken Promise(Karin)-->Promise of Blood (Rose-longer book, but I've been dying to read it))-->Blood: The stuff of Life (Ray)-->Life and Death: Twilight Reimagined (Ella- also very long-700+ pgs)
