Sonia’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

Oopppsss.. Sorry Diane.

I planned a whole trilogy for next round.... I'm shocked with myself. LOL

I think by then we had moved for first 2 page tags - I always prefer those to MPG, so it was a bit easier. Think Memories of a Geisha or Harry Potter.

Even so. Meh.

LOL"

Don't get me started with the randomizer... it *hated* me during brown wheel.

My entire team was begging for a re-spin the third time we got classics in a row. It says something when I agreed having helped the re-spins creation.

It was so bad.. .but so bad, that Cat ended up having to spin the wheel three times on the last round. The darn thing wanted us to read the classics AGAIN. TWICE.

Right?!

Finished Love Springs Eternal. And that ending was... EXPLOSIVE. We knew eventually those events would surface. But I need the next one for yesterday!!!!

Since #6 is still untitled for now... I'll have to resign myself to wait.

Anyway... I do most of my readings on friday nigh/saturday... so, I'm hoping I'll be able to fit a couple more. A little behind my proposed number, but not as bad as it could be.

Is that the thanks I get to try to help?!

Fine.

I got tagged ROMANCE

*goes away with a really smug smile*

But with purpose! :P

Yeah, know the feeling.

Word: Vampire/Tag: Romance. As I said on my thread, my KU is going to be used so hard that my kindle will feel thoroughly read by the end of the round.

Weeeeelllll.. since I was self-preparing for a bad draw, I went and searched a little, and discovered that Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia and most of Paulo Coelho's books are tagged spirituality. The advantage of Paulo Coelho is that they're also fiction, so characters count. Plus, he writes in Portuguese, meaning translator names. Oh, and did I mention that my favorite trilogy from him is an O series? And the great thing about that trilogy, they're all standalones. They're just bundle up because of the "personal growth in a week" theme. The Devil and Miss Prym is a bet with the devil, sooooooo.

We have been given our Round 2 spell-out word, and it is
WEREWOLF.

We also get bonus points for reading books tagged Young Adult at least ten times.

Start planning if you like, but ..."

I love E's and W's.... but I won't trade my word/tags with you, sorry.

Vampire spell-it-out with romance tags.

*looks at kindle & all KU possibilities*

Oh baby, you're going to be used so hard, that by the end of the round you're going to feel thoroughly read!

There are a lot of books, like the entire HP series, with classic tags.

But I am glad with the one we ended up with. I am happy n..."

I did.

chip'n dale were all squealing around so loud that focus on work till you woke up and I could start nagging was hard. Really hard.

Judith wrote: "Don't lie, I heard you wanted Ghost/Spirituality or Zombie/Nonfiction

haha"

No... I was looking at books that could fit, because brown wheel randomizer hated me.

Seriously, if we got classics or horror after they stole Sammy and Claire from me, I would have a serious hissy fit.

I knew being a MM reader will eventually pay off.

Good morning beautifuls!!!!

Since RL has been a drag, meaning my headaches are flaring... which in turn require meds... hence, every time I try to read is like this:



Anywoo, I am darn stubborn, so, I shall read all my promised books. At least I hope so. I'm claiming one at a time though, since keeping to plans has been harder than usual.

That goodreads edition says it's only 128 pages... way under the page limit for wheels. So it can't be used either way.

Sorry :(

I usually check it on ArBookFind

Me and Judith, I think. We weren't lucky with the randomizer, though
