I thought that was such a fun book! What do you think?
I will look for one that fits :)

I am going to try to add my books too. Yes, I think I'm waning a bit with recording the foods in my books!

We had Thanksgiving this past weekend - lots of food, lots of turkey! I hope all of you who celebrate Thanksgiving had a good one :)

I just finished A Thousand Ships - good on the mythology. I just went to see Black Panther, and now I am longing for more South American / Central American mythology though. Any thoughts?

I hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving had a good day!

I am done for the week :)
No Collapsing Empire for me!
I did find a red Janet Evonovich book for next week though :)

I'll look through some books at school tomorrow for a good E one.

Long and science :) Which one?

Kerri wrote: "Definitely weekend cramming! I have all of next week off, so hopefully I’ll be able to read more."

Excellent! Do you have any that you are really looking forward to?
I got some cleaning done while listening to a couple books today, which was good.

Take care of yourself first. This is just a fun challenge :)
Are you getting more migraines than usual? I hope you are finding relief.

I added a "timers" tab to the tracking spreadsheet that has live timers for all 5 rounds for easy reference! 21 Hours and 12 Minutes to go..."
Nice!
I like the timers!
Yes, I could read the Interdepency book - or jump to another letter. I'm not far into it yet.

Do we still need an I? I will dive into the I book tonight - finished 3 today.

I'm sorry Alicia. What a strange thing this COVID is. I hope you breathe better soon.

Finally, some of my characters ate.

I’ve got an E

Yes, this is a super busy week at school (conferences, reports, concerts). I’ll be on more this weekend!

I totally agree. I had a hard time breathing with COVID. Thank god I got it after the "jabs"!
My characters in my books are not eating enough. I keep telling them to slow down and grab a bite to eat. Maybe have a romantic dinner, but they don't listen.

Phew, I know. Getting the weekends to cram is really awesome - as I don't get as much read during the week.

Welcome Jean!!

There's several series within the Cosmere and any of them can be a jumping in point. Most worlds within the Cosmere aren't aw..."

This is amazing! I am printing it out now for future reference. Thanks Vicky!!

Nice! I've never read a Brandon Sanderson book before. I just started Skyward. What would you recommend?
