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

@Michelle - I totally understand! I tried to start the second book but I just kept putting it down for other books. I may have to give it another attempt.

@Rachel - Great update! The margin of difference between the other teams and us is something we can easily overcome. So go team!

Tea - I think there's another participant called Tia. That might be the reason but I could be wrong.

Leslie & Melissa - good luck with aDwD. I really need to continue with the series. I've read the first but haven't progressed beyond that, unfortunately.

I started Jim Butcher's Codex Alera series last week of December and now I'm planning to finishing it. It's a epic fantasy and so far, it's really good. The biggest plus point is the world building. It's damn good. Though I wouldn't say it's a negative, I wish Butcher created a more flawed lead character. Tavi is like almost perfect. He becomes almost-perfect. So far, this year I've finished up books 2, 3 & 4. Two more to go and all of them are chunksters. Can we get a reward for finishing chunksters? Pretty please? *Puppy Eyes*

Off to start

OK folks - I was checking the team totals and we are at the bottom with 31 books. Team A has some 50+ books already! Has all of us signed up to the challenge widget and tagged the books to the correct shelf? Let's get reading.

Sounds good Rachel & Rebecca! I can help out with anything like checking in once a day etc. just let me know which ones. I'd volunteer more but my RL is sort of full now and it's cUtting into my reading time. But I'll be glad to help out.

I like the name too!

I can be a backup - maybe we can rotate duties so that one person doesn't end up doing much? Or split the duties among the volunteers (ex: one person check the page count) one person co-ordinating everything. That would make things easier on everyone. That's just my suggestion.

LK (if that is you in disguise): That image is totally over my head. I don't get it :(

Oh, I'm also loving the Dresden series. I started Butcher's fantasy series last year (I'm so enjoying saying this even though it was only a week ago!) and it's also very good. That said, I have to continue the Dresden series. I'm upto book #8, I think.

Count me in for the read. I just have to remember when the date rolls out :P

Happy New Year folks! Happy Reading!

I've already started with my first book of the year -

Sign me up please!

I can understand, LK!

Not a good time for you, huh?! Hope you take things slowly, LK! And loads of rest. Please don't strain yourself.

Oh no, Lisa Kay! How did that happen? One of my uncles had it long time back and it was bad for him!

Thanks Diane & LK!!

Forgot to update! I'm done finally :) 2004 was the killer until I realized that I had the book but didn't know :P

Post #16: 75/75 FINISHED

Congrats, Dawn!!

Congrats, Dragana! Sorry I missed it.

Thanks, Sashana! The ones I have are 200 pages. Are they ok?

Are graphic novels, manga allowed?

I'll take your word on it. I haven't heard them speak actually.
