Laura..devouring books like crumpets’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

I'm the same... I have the Paris apartment on Scribd so may try to read it but it's not my usual genre

TBH i have so many series on the go Fantasy wise.....probably around 30 or 40 but i pick and choose as im a bit of a mood reader at the moment im loving the Immortals after dark and shifters unbound, i just read two of each but i can feel my shifter mojo waning and fancy reading about the fae so will probably pick up something holly black next.

Whats LITRPG! LOL sorry

Yes i love Nocturne falls im up to the Vampires Fake Fiance they are on KU i been saving them for fall when i feel all halloweenie, i dont have Audible i use Scribd instead it has alot more choice for my type of reading. and i tend to audio book more than i read, my kids dont leave me alone long enough to concentrate so i may get an hor at night, whereas with audio i listen during housework and driving

Hey guys nice to meet you! I'm Laura 34 from the isle of wight in England, but live in Greece after my holiday romance with the greek barman got serious when I was 19, married and two kids later I love it here, I work part time in a boutique by day and help out at the family restaurant some nights, my youngest has Autism so don't like leaving him too much, still we work seasonally for 7 months so have my winters off... more reading, but we have an olive grove too so usually set out to make our own olive oil during Oct/November.

I have played tower teams twice in this group but I'm a mod in another so I usually run 2 big team challenges a year, our current big bang theory one finishes September so I'm all ready for this!

I audiobook alot so may do notebook too..... unless I'm driving.....

Brilliant!

ahhh so they can be the same words?

i sent you message Mahi as still no access

Midnight sun is a paperback so search is hard but I remember the restaurant scene from twilight so had a quick look...


page 209 I have "I'll have a coke"


sorry just popping this here as they don't eat or drink much if memory serves me correctly, so if i could Have coke for this one it would be great

Totally joined my restaurant rocks!!!! Luckily a team has taken me under their wing!

Looks interesting from October season slowly finishes here so will be reading way more.

I have to say i preferred the last tower teams challenge, this one did get a little confusing for me when we joined teams and had to pre claim books... But the rest i loved as always


thank you captains for all your hard work its really appreciated xxxx

in tower teams the Larger the page count the more points we got? i wasnt sure if the same applied here?

Thats a relief! yay on Gabriella! do page numbers count like in tower teams? I did look and it seems like it doesn't but wanted to check.

I should be able to read a bit more the last 2 months, I'm in Greece we work seasonally so things will be dying down then, kids will go back to school, and I have a load of my family here from England until the 22nd of September so once October rolls in I'm free as a bird. Just September i can only commit to 15 books... Can we start books before challenge?

ok rrequested
