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

Am I still able to do The Witch’s Heart for BOM points?

I'm sorry I don't think I'll be able to get anything else in for monsters today. I've been trying to find some short ones for the last Kraken (ship and 8) but can't find anything. I have to head into work in a minute and I definitely know I can't do an audiobook this afternoon because I'm working with someone else today. Sorry...

I bet they're happy you're back!

Thanks to whomever updated the ss for me

I finished Pillars and will mark it as read, I’ll log it on the ss in a few minutes. My computer is updating right now…

That's so funny, Rebecca - when I first read 'ball,' I thought of sports, too, lol.

Great minds think alike!

Does a ball outfit/setting have to be from a ball/dance or can it be from a sport?

I could not sleep last night so I finished The Cursed Child and I'm a little more than halfway through Pillars. I'm hoping to finish it by this evening.

I'm sorry you're feeling so badly. I suffer from allergies as well and it's not fun especially when you hit the territory you're in with it. Steam/hot showers help immensely. I hope you feel better!

Thanks, I’ll let you know but I think I’ll be able to get both in

That’s wonderful!!!

Ugh, but at least that’s easily replaceable

That's huge progress. Hopefully the hole is small and easily repaired. Did it damage your belongings? You probably can't tell yet...fingers crossed everything is unscathed

Listening to POE @2x should take about 21 hours so it shouldn't be a problem regardless of whether I listen to it at work or not. I'm finding that I'm enjoying the higher speed. I need to remember this for future re-reads of other books

Judith wrote: "Alright, I add in the banked books for the other tasks."

Thanks Judith, I hope your morning is going better than last night. I'm thinking about you all and hoping that things go smoothly.

Whoop whoop on both accounts! I've read both books before and loved both. Pillars is in my top five books of all time and I've been saying that I want to do a re-read of it forever.

Also, I can read Harry Potter and The Cursed Child for book 8 if it will count since I know there is something wonky about plays counting

I'm going to attempt to listen to for our new Kraken because I noticed that we have 2,3, and 4 banked for it (or I think we do lol). I should be able to finish it in time for the deadline. I'm going to try leaving it on at work and hoping no one notices. Let me know if I shouldn't do this and should try for something else

So in other words don’t read the last page of any book until after the mini starts unless we’re using it for Trojan wars or monsters lol

That’s a bummer, I’m so sorry Judith. I hate adulting a lot myself. Good luck with the insurance etc
