Congrats!! Thanks mods!

I finished mine.

Thanks Judy, Christina and Ashleigh!! This has been fun.

I'm reading The Hating Game which should work for an office romance. I will finish that before the deadline. Not sure if I will get another in. Also, this will then be my eighth book which is 1 over my limit.

I finished Edgedancer just earlier. I got caught in a big jam today and had extra time to listen (literally, the only plus point, horrible otherwise)

I found Lift ok - I didn't really like her from that one chapter. She's not my favourite character but not the worst either.

(view spoiler)[ There is many different groups working - The Ghostbloods, the one Amaram is in (forgot the name). How are they different? I am so curious about the Diagram and the actions of the Taravangian and how they contradict with Dalinar (of course I could have missed something)

So does that mean that if Darkness comes across Syl (as an hour spren) he will change his path / goals?
This is what I was thinking too - Didn't he know of the return of the honor spren? I think Syl was the first honor spren to bind so maybe he was not aware.

the Assassin said he didn't kill Lift as "the sword likes you". I'm confused as to his role now. Is he good or bad?
I guess Szeth is conflicted because he has seen the return of the Voidbringers which is a direct contradiction of what Darkness/Nale says. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.

I just want to say - what an amazing imagination Sanderson has. I had stayed away from longer books because of the time constraint but audiobooks is helping me bridge that. I am now looking forward to exploring more the 'Cosmere' books.

I just started it today.. Somewhere in chapter 2 now. I intend to continue reading the series.

Based on books 1 and 2, they use it without realizing.. I think they even breathed out stormlight.

I didn't do the first books with you guys.. But I was reading it before I knew of the BR.. and wow, the second blew me away. I finished it late last night - I had to stop the audio and read it instead because I just couldn't wait. I will be starting Edgedancer soon. Will you be reading Oathbringer immediately after?

Were you reading Words of Radiance? I just finished it and it was awesome!! But I also don't know what to pick up next.

Ooh, I will update the spreadsheet soon.. best of the books I've read so far. I've also started Words of Radiance but I will take another 1-2 weeks to finish it. Only about 13% in

Done, Judy.

All good, I added the date!"

Thanks Judy!

For the region tags - do they have to be tagged or does it count if the location is seen on the main page?

I finished The Lost Hero. I am not able to update in the spreadsheet now but I can do it later

I'll finish my Greece book hopefully today or early tomorrow. It's 500+ pages so I hope we can get the page bonus too.

I'm read the Greece now but your Greece will help with the next round I guess.

I need to finish up another book and then I'll attempt to start the The Lost Hero. It's been a while since I read it and I want to re-read before continuing the series.

@Jhmingos - could you do Thailand? I couldn't access any unless it's a guidebook 🙃

I can do the Greece. Either a hqn (<200 pages) or maybe something by Rick Riordan.

I also want to apologize - my job is new, long commute and they have blocked google docs - the combo of all that is making it difficult to check and update the spreadsheet regularly. It's easier for me to do in the weekend when I can sit with my own laptop. I hope to get into a rhythm soon.

Yeah, I was planning on doing the book addition and everything tomorrow. I think I read more than 7 again (what a problem, huh!) so I wanted to get the best 7 off.

Another reason why I didn't add them to wheel shelf. Can I add all of them or only 7 books? I will do the BOM discussion tomorrow evening and add them to the spreadsheet.

I think the green cover book (is it Only Hard Problems?) was short so I didn't think of counting it for the challenge.

I haven't added to the spreadsheet yet but I've read a #6 in series. Not sure if that will help.
