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

Our next genre is Chick Lit. I was just thinking the other day that I had lots of C. Let me go see where those books are now.

I finished all the three books - , & . I think that's it for this week.

Ok then, I'm reading (fits R, A, S) and then (fits F, A, S). I will hopefully finish off (fits B, T) before Sunday. I have four chapters remaining on the audio.

I might not be able to check in tomorrow, Friday. If I can't, I'll do an update by Saturday.

I finished the the Apprentice. I liked the addition to the series - I was able to connect with Jane better in this book. She's really amazing. I'm definitely picking up the next book in the series.

tc, is there any letter than we need or can I just read any book? I'm still debating on my next book.

Thanks, Ange. Last week for a really good one for the team as well. We're doing a great job with the reading!

Wow, TC! That's really impressive.

I finally finished . It will work for Y - (char Lily Yu), R, T - (char Rule Turner). I will most probably finish off which will work for S - title, A - char Ava before I sleep today.

My next week will be very busy. Starting tomorrow, I have a lot of religious ceremonies this week. Only Tuesday and Wednesday are technically free but it will be gone in preparation. My reading time and GR time will definitely be limited.

I'll probably check-in late tomorrow morning. The books I'm definitely reading are:

- Serendipity by Lisa Clark O'Neill
- Mortal Danger by Eileen Wilks
- The Apprentice by Tess Gerritsen

Rest of the books depend on the time and the letters. I'll decide after checking in tomorrow.

My last book for this week - Just This Once by Rosalind James. It works for R - author, E - Escape to New Zealand series, D - character Drew, A - char Arianna, M - char Matt.

A very ok read - slightly boring. On the other hand, I'm proud of myself. I've finished 8 books this week. A record definitely.

Looks like a fun day, TC! Enjoy :)

I finished on 9 August. Works for L, D - char dallas, A - Austin, M - Cameron McQueen, R - Rawley.

Ah, Ok Karen.

I finished Promises by Marie Sexton. It works for M (author), L (char name Lizzie), R (char Matt Richards)

I can probably get in one another book - either (R - author or D - char Drew) or (L - author, D - char Dallas, M - char Cordelia McQueen)

I finished The Surgeon - I really liked the book; they mystery was written well. I was completely engrossed in it. The only not-so-great point was Jane Rizzoli - she was a little prickly but I admired her determination. I'm still reserving judgement about her. I already downloaded the next book in the series - another good series that I'm looking forward to read.

Karen, Susan Elizabeth Philips is the name of the author. Sorry, I should have been more clear. Does middle name of author count?

Thanks, TC. The series just came on my radar and my library had a ready copy. I'm getting lucky with my books.

I have a question: Will Susan Elizabeth Philips count for letter E?

From the reviews I've read, it says she'll appear only in the second book. Apparently, there's a TV series based on this series..?! I didn't know. Anyway this is the review I'm basing it on : https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

If you shift my Abercrombie book from G to D, the Safe-Keeper's to I, then the Surgeon can fit G. Sorry for the trouble TC but I'm really excited to read the book now and I'd rather not put it off.

Oh yeah, I was about to ask that, TC. I thought the game has 2 more weeks left. I would like to continue with the game as well. I'm having so much fun with it. And it's so good for my reading and TBR. I would definitely like to continue as well.

I finished up

by Graeme Simsion - works for D (char Don), R (title), G (author)

by Jacqueline Kelly - works for E (title), M (char Margaret).

Planning to start by Tess Gerritsen - will work G, R (char name - Rizzoli)

I finished two books so far - both have a lot of characters than can work for us:

- This took me a while to get through because it had a lot of gore that I had to stop reading and it was slightly long. It took me a while to get into but once I did, I really liked it. I would definitely be continuing the series.(works for G (Glokta), L (Logen), D (Dogman), M (Marvoria))

- A very quiet fantasy that I really enjoyed. A perfect counterpoint to the Abercrombie book. (D - Damiana, R - Reed, I - Isadora, A - Angeline)

My next two books:
- The Rosie Project
- The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate

I can probably get to more this week. It looks like next week will be slow for me.

When is your library getting it? But I think you should probably get it - it's worth buying.

Aright go ahead, TC. I checked the rules of the team challenge and it meets the page count.
