Too bad, I just finished Oona Out of Order and am currently reading Open Book!
How are we deciding what letter to read....should I start checking my book stash now?
Where do we find tags for a book? Is that under the genre/top shelves section?
Yes, that's my challenge shelf.

No, my kids were actually really great on the trip. At the time they were 8 and 11, bu there was no fighting, they were helpful, etc. If I took the trip now with them, it would definitely not be as peaceful! LOL!
I enjoy suspense/thrillers, contemporary fiction, romance/chick-lit, historical fiction.....Fantasy books (besides Harry Potter!) are not my comfort genre reads!
My name is Nancy and I live in New York (United States). I've participated in other team reading challenges with NBRC, but I believe this is my first Wheel challenge.....so bear with me! It seemed like something fun for the summer! My favorite road trip was three summers ago when I took my two kids on a trip around NY state. It was something I wasn't sure I could do on my own, but we had a lot of fun and got to see some fun sights.
My fantasy road trip is a cross country trip to visit the National Parks.
I don't read a lot of travel books and a book about a road trip that I've read isn't coming to mind!
Just finished my last book! Hope it's not too late!
I should hopefully have my book finished soon! I definitely read more for this challenge than I usually do! This challenge was a lot of fun and you all were great teammates!
Wow, great job everyone! I'm back from my trip and sadly did not finish any books. I am about half-way through one that I may hopefully finish within the next couple of days!
Okay guys, finally finished
last night! It was so good! Not sure how much reading I'll be getting done in the next 12 days. I am off on a week-long road trip with my kids tomorrow. Since we will be pretty busy, not sure how much reading time I'll be able to get in. We did pick up Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on audio today. So, if we finish listening to that, it will be a biggie! I won't be bringing my laptop and the phone app is pretty bad. Plus, I won't have much internet connection (we'll be staying in a cabin in a state park!).
I'm still reading Handle with Care. It's a great book. I just haven't had a lot of reading time! Great job to everyone reading so many books! Not sure how you guys do it! I think my goal for the year was 75 books and some of you will surpass that in the couple of months of this challenge!!

I was never able to get online and post the books I finished while on this trip (long, exhausting days of meetings) and my free evening last..."Megan - I got married 13 years ago. We honeymooned in Venice and Florence, Italy. It probably cost a couple of thousand dollars but I honestly don't remember. I was teaching at the time and we got married right before my spring break. So we actually left our reception early to catch a flight so we could spend the most time in Italy!! You should definitely not stress about it and if money or time is an issue, I know some people go away for a romantic weekend and then save and then take a more extravagant honeymoon later.

I read the first book in the Never Never series and wasn't a fan! But I love Colleen Hoover otherwise! It Ends with Us was so good! I agree that she's grown as a writer and her newer stuff, minus the Never Never series, is really good!
Hi team! I've recently finished
and
which were both really good! I gave up on
after a couple of chapters and am reading one off my own shelf by one of my favorite authors
! Hope everyone is getting some good reading time in!

Hi guys, I know I've been pretty quiet around here but finished another book! I'm off tomorrow for our annual 4th of July family get-together in Rhode Island. While I'm taking several books, I most likely will not get a lot of reading done! I also probably won't be online a lot. I'll be back sometime Wednesday and will catch up then!Hope everyone in the US has a Happy 4th of July!
