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

Hey everyone. I'm not dead, I promise. Thanksgiving was just very busy.

I completed Anybody Home? and am about to put it on my shelf.

Quick question: I just started Second Rite which is 400 pages. To be clear, it would have to be 401 pgs to use it for over 400 on the spreadsheet, correct?

A quick thing - you've added HappyHead to the spreadsheet, except we can't f..."

You should be able to now. Melissa had messaged me and I took care of it before I posted here. I finished it super early in the morning but got it on both Read and my challenge shelf with about an hour to spare. 👍

Just double checking, for the mini challenges, the books we use cannot be started before today, correct?

Yeah, for some reason, the only thing I could get to pop up was a two book set of the series (also called HappyHead). No more than hit send and tried again, oop, there it is lol

Just finished Resurrection and updated the sheet/added it to my shelf.

I'm focusing hard on getting Resurrection finished and attempting one other book by the 26th. Resurrection will for sure be done.

I'm having a hard time finding the other one here on Goodreads, so if I could have a few more sets of eyes? It's Happy Head by Josh Silver.

Never mind. I found it literally a minute later. 😅

First book finished!

Thank you!

Call me Ms. Problematic. My ARC is listed on GR but doesn't have a page count. The bookfunnel app as well as my friend (the author) say it's 305 pgs. Do we have a GR librarian amongst us that can add it?

Screen shot from book funnel:

Awesome. Figured I'd double check on the off chance they aren't

Quick question for planning: do ARCs (advance reader copy) count? The ones I'm asking about have Goodreads listings but aren't available to everyone.

Thanks!

Hey all!

I'm Bobbi and I'm from Michigan in the US. I am my mother's caretaker so I'm around at least once a day. I'm the owner of 3 dogs and two cats.

I read a little bit of everything as I'm a moodreader, but if I had to narrow it down to my top 3, I would say horror, romance, and fantasy. The only genre I just don't click with is cozy mystery and I'm not sure why. 🤷‍♀️

I'm looking forward to getting to know you all and play with you/be bored with you lol.

My bookshelf for this challenge: NBRC Boring Life Wheel 9

It's that time of year. Everyone has romance on the brain lol

This is me, but with the letter P. 🙃

The book I added to week 5, I left 10 pages to finish after the turn over. I just added today's date so I didn't forget later, mon capitàns.

Oh, thank the stars. So much easier!

So happy to hear you're feeling better, Suzanne!
