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

Done, TC. I'm reading Stormwalker after which I'll read another S book. I'll also start a U book. Under the Never Sky looks good. Karen, how's it so far?

I'm reading which will work for P, E so far. I think it should also work for S and N but I'll confirm.

The will also work for N (char N'tan) and S (char name S'lel). If you wish to use follow the GR book page, then we'll just rearrange. I still have which will work for S & N. I can read another one, possibly 2 books depending on which letters are needed.

I finished and yesterday 22 July.

I now have a question - when I search for dragonflight, the search page shows it as being #1 in Pern. But the book page shows that it is #1 in Dragonriders of Peru. In the book details it is shown as #1 in Pern series too. So can we still use it for P?

I have to say that is . It was like everybody and their dog loved the book. I just found it more boring than funny. It was getting to winded up to sustain my interest. And this is the reason why I'm hesitant to give Discworld series a try.

Hi Team! I didn't get any reading done over the weekend. My uncle visited but more importantly, I got a new phone (Nexus 5) so I'm the shiny new phone stage. Fiddling around, transferring stuff etc.

So far, these are the stuff I'm planning to read next:

P: Dragonflight by Anne McCaffrey - Series name is Pern.
S/N: Stormwalker by Allyson James. S - Title; N - character Nash (I think. Will confirm name)
S: - Seduction by Amanda Quick.

Ugh. I didn't manage to get any reading done today. I started Miss Wonderful but ended up putting it down as I wasn't in the mood for it.

I have my uncle visiting tomorrow so I don't think I can do much reading tomorrow too.

I finished Surrender very early this morning. It works for I - character Isabelle or N - character Cleo Nettleship.

Great job., Team!!

Okie, I have an O book and a N book. I'll let you know once I finish either of them.

@TC - What letters are we missing for the fourth read-through? I can plan my next read based on that..

@TC - I've never seen a Perry Mason show, if you can believe it. Though I have heard plenty. I should check it out once.

@Karen - Really, I can't pick out one single character. There's Hermoine - one of arguably better portrayal of a female character in a YA fantasy. She's kick-ass but not in the physically strong method but in her intelligent, rational way. I loved how JKR made her the most intelligent student in her year. Period. Or Phedre and Joscelin from the Kushiel's Dart. They're one of the strongest character pair that I've read. Even after all the trials, their strength of character and loyalty and their love is just amazing. Lastly (only in the list), is Ganesh and Vasanth from Tamil Author Sujatha - they're such a fun pair and they made me read more books in my mother tongue.

I love that card, Karen. It's so familiar. Also familiar is, "Let me just finish this chapter". My family, especially Hubs hears that a loooot.

This week has been proving to be excellent. I finished another book - Mrs. Drew Plays Her Hand by Carla Kelly. I really liked it. Very refreshing to read a HR that is not set in London, balls etc. It's fully set in the country. The hero is a such a beta hero that I loved it. I loved the way the Fletcher fell for Roxie and her kids. And when there was a cause for serious misunderstanding, both the characters handled it very well. Highly recommend for HR lovers.

The book works only for C (title) or F (character Felicity, Fletcher).

I may get to another book - I usually don't get much reading done over the weekend.

Done, TC. I knew I was missing something. I'm now reading Trust Me now. It can work for T(title) and I (character Ian). I should finish it by today.

I'll come back later. I'm a lot sleepy. Baby decided to get up at 3 and play. Fun!

This challenge has been good for me. (Or this week) I finished another book - Family Man by Jayne Ann Krentz. Typical JAK book so an escapist + comfort read kind of book at one go. It can work F(title). Also, there's a character Nate who plays a significant role in the book. If we can use the character, then it'll work for N also.

Good Morning, Karen! The weather forecast said it might rain in the morning but no such luck. Bright and sunny. I think the day's going to get hotter.

Karen, I think I'm the opposite. I don't think I can live anywhere but the tropics. Of course, I've never properly seen the four seasons (and never snow) so I can't really say.

I finished Imprisoned by a Vow yesterday night (15 July). It was pretty good for a HP. The heroine Leila made the book - she was really strong. The hero was more of a cardboard character but given the word count, you can't really have both the h and the H having issues. The ending with the h annoyed me so much that I kept wanting to bash the hero.

I have another I read coming up - Imprisoned by a Vow. It should be a quick read as its a HP

The most weird thing I have is if I log in to GR from my phone. Sometimes, GR says the cookies have corrupted and I need to clear out all my cookies, log in again. I don't think it's a browser issue as it happens only with GR.

I just finished Indiscreet. 15 July. It was really good. It's a gender-bender i.e the female MC disguises herself as male for a while in the book and that part was really done. I really liked it. I'm definitely checking out more books by this author.

I finished my book - Light in Shadow just now. An ok, light read. Off to the next one. Should we post a review too or is just tagging on the shelf enough?

My reads are a little unpredictable nowadays but here are the books I've lined up:

T - Light In Shadow by Jayne Ann Krentz (character Ethan Truax)
I, C - Indiscreet by Carolyn Jewel (Title - I, author C)

I'm planning to listen to Dead Beat by Jim Butcher but I'm not sure if I can finish by July 20. I'll also list books tomorrow.
