I had a busy day at work, so I couldn't post earlier and I was worried about missing the deadline.

I'm sure you'll get round to it, but my Taken By The Dragon King is not on the spreadsheet..."

It's under 160 pages... I had it there till I noticed it was with 0 points... then scrambled brain *really* looked at page numbers

Yeah, no repeats, please!

Although, it allowed for me to fulfill the wish of being able to work remotely from home.

Some clients still want us to go to their offices sometimes, but it's mainly at home.

My weekend was kind of busy (this week/weekend will be even worse) so I still have 150ish pages to read of my current book:


If everything goes alright, it's good for an E or an I, which can in turn allow for a bit of word tetris if needed be

Can you add this one to your challenge shelf, please? We're still counting it, since you have it marked as read. Is just to make checking more easily.

Thanks :o)

Updated to here. Shelves checked.

So, word for next round is out - no ss tabs yet. But, for those who like to plan:

word: APPLES NEVER FALL
colour: GREY
tag: ZOMBIES

Already had words with Cat in regard to the tag, but, she simple pointe out "the wheel had spoken, who am I to argue with the wheel"

Since I know how disgruntled the wheel can be when we try to bend the rules and re-spin, no counter arguments from me.

Yes,


Oooohhh that one is on my list too. Not enough tags, but I like her books. Even if the main character is one step away from the looney bin.

No problem. It was mentioned on the captains group since it would be nice to be able to use all of them.

Update --- This book is..."

Thanks Maritza!

But, we can't use Contemporary-Romance. It has to be the exact word. Meaning, Contemporary, on its own. Which this book also have, but only with 1 tag, and it has to have a minimum of 10 tags.

Good Morning!

So, somehow I managed to give the GO to the project from hell yesterday - and yes, I even had to miss Portugal's game and we won 6-1. AND I MISSED IT!!!

Anywoo, to finish the day in a positive note, my niece was having troubles falling asleep, so I ended up cuddling with her being the big spoon and reading on my phone. It took 5 minutes for her to fall asleep, but I also needed the cuddles. LOL

I started . One of this days I need to get my hands on the audio version, so I can feel Lucas's arrogance and Andrei's sexiness.

And tomorrow's a Portuguese holiday - got to love December - and I have nothing on my radar besides a tutoring session middle afternoon and going to the gym late morning. I need to let all the accumulated energy and stress go, so, since there is no body balance class available due to said holiday, I might opt for a body combat one. Sometimes we meditate, sometimes we punch and kick.

And maybe sleep. Sleep is important. Definitely reading :o)

So, what are your plans for the rest of the week?

Ouch. Not good.

I am a spammer magnet though! I noticed that this morning. I post, they post. It's weird."

I believe it's a matter of time zone. And they tend to pick the recent threads.. so... it happens.

As long as it is because we have lots of completion posts... I'll deal with it. It's a matter of sharing the link with one of the mods and they take care of it. (It's one of the tasks I don't miss not even a little bit... apart from the kicking from the group satisfaction, LOL)

Btw, Cat thought I was calling you a spammer magnet!

*giggles*

I needed a break from container alignment and font size check. I prefer web apps to other software, but, my current testing project is a static site. Which means, things to test are mostly images, texts, alignments, animations and navigation. It didn't start ok, and with the mobile and tablet versions, I am a bit tired of looking at the same thing over and over.

Which is ridiculous considering my love for re-readings. But yeah. Deadline is today, so. Almost over... for now :D

To Get to the Other Side by Kelly Ohlert

Tags: YES
Color: NO

..."

MIne is still good, this one has 21 tags

The site that shall not be named says yes... I was having doubts...

Well... even my fantasy books are mostly contemporary since I tend to prefer paranormal to high fantasy. So. This tag is perfect.

Uhmmm lemme check the dec 2 releases that are waiting for me...

Meanwhile, the Unbreakable Bonds new covers (2021 kindle editions) are mostly black, and contemporary, and one of the 4 friends is named Ian.

The only one I can't re-read is (I think I read it for last towers)

It is a bit darker than Ella Frank. But I just finished an assassins & mercs universe from Jocelynn Drake and am not ready to move on (next one comes out in January) so, maybe a re-read will help with that.

I'm itching towards her Lords of Discord series, but if I start with the Variks now, I'm pretty sure I'll be caught in obsessed mode.. Almost did back in UNO when I tried them the first time... I managed to talk about them non-stop till I make Claire read them. So... Better stay away from that, unless we need the precious "V" letters.

I will.

Maybe it's a MM romeo & juliet?

At least they are both out. You have no idea how much I grumbled at the end of Danger Zone. Or was it Classified? Maybe both.

I'm pretty sure I threw my kindle at the end of Prime Time. I should know better by now... but nope.. still fall for it EVERY. SINGLE. SERIES

Uhmmm methinks it's time to read The Malvagio Duet:



colour, check. shelf, check. Maybe I get lucky and it has an I too.
