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

Alison, we're starting in Venice and then work our way down to Rome and Naples:-)
I've started reading My love lies bleeding for another challenge, unsure if we can use it in Olympic.

Finished Odinsbarn, it is currently on decorations in event 5, but can be moved if needed:-) I will probably be on the phone and ipad app for the next three weeks or so, so be patient with me:-)

Finished Extinct for a Reason: A Field Guide to Failimals and Evolosers, what a drag to read. I'm afraid I didn't have the sense of humor required for this book...

I can read Extinct for a Reason: A Field Guide to Failimals and Evolosers for event 2, it's only 112pg so can fit it in the first slot in leg 3.

I will try to do as much reading as possible before Sunday, that's when I leave for Italy and can't guarantee how much reading I'll be able to do. after that. I'll bringA Storm of Swords: Blood and Gold, but other than that Will only have e-books mostly (I do have a tendency of buying books at the airport though:P)

Finished 12 years a slave=)

One question: is there a limit how many books can a person read for chariot decorations section?"

Good question!

Fine by me=)

5 hour sprint completed and results sent to MODs.
I finished , put it on decorations in event 5 since there are flowers on the cover. Not sure what else it can be used for, but it is 297pg so it could perhaps replace a book not started in event 2 and 3 if that's making things easier for anyone=)

Also started . It's more than 500pg and has a tailring on the cover (they said use your imagination when decorating the carriage). Other than that I don't know what use it'll be. There is an MC that becomes an asassin/fighter in the story, but since I read it during the sprint I'm not sure if we can use it as a coaching book or if it even fits the criteria well enough?

The MODs account. If you look at the event 4 info they put out earlier (Olympic events file) there is a direct link to message them=)

Finished Mistaken Identity for event 2

No, they didn't respond.

Well, it's good the boo..."

I got a respons on my message after at few hours. They just said thank you and that the results will be published when all the sprints are done=)

Super!:-)

No problem, I can probably find something to read to replace it anyway:-)

I checked the pages on Amazon, it says 170 so based it on that. Read it on Amazon Kindle App and it also says 170 pg...

If someone could take the 3 hour on Friday that would be great! I seem to remember that Kate could read on Saturday? That way I can read a sprint on Sunday as well=)

I just finished the 1 hour sprint, will send a message to the MODs now with the results=)

Finished To Wed the Fae Prince for event 2.

I can do the 1 hour sprint tomorrow=)

I've already started 12 Years a Slave so I if Vikki can read for the animal I prefer not to swap:P

If Kate is ok with taking two long rounds that's fine with me. If Dragana does the 2 hour on Friday I can take 3 hour sometime this weekend or the 4 hour if someone else do 3 on Saturday. If it's a crisis I may be able to do the 5 hours sometime during the week after work, but 6 hours is impossible I think. The thing is I leave for Italy next Sunday and have a visitor Saturday so it's no use for me to try long reading rounds after that...=)

I can also do the 1 or 2 hour sprint tomorrow. Saturday or Sunday are good days for one of the longer stretches, preferrably 4 or 5 hours=)

Didn't plan on reading it, but since we're struggling on that, I'll take one for the team;)

I think I'll do the audio version, that way all the hours driving won't go to waste:P
