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

Imagine GR removing the auto-check for "Notify me when people comment" but not "Add to my Update Feed" one *smh*

I'm from Canada (Eastern Standard). My list is here.

I read mostly LGBTQ+ books, non-fiction, historical fiction and YA. I love reading classics too.

Hi everyone! (also not sure if it's okay to check-in, waited a couple hours and no movements)

Excited to start this challenge, I haven't played for a couple years, kept missing the sign-ups. Can't wait to get back to the team challenge that introduced me to GR team challenges <3

*Also currently participating in Turf Wars.

LOVE this!"

Same! And I kept missing the sign ups these past few wheels. I'm so glad I caught the email just in time this year!

Just to be sure. I get that we can't use the same task # twice, but there are multiple times the same task (example: Recommended by a different team). So can we use the same task twice if it's a different #? (Am I clear?)

Title challenge: Wheel-a-Thon V

The Night Circus


Round Three [Word - PUB QUIZZING] :

I'm currently camping I might need a little help with the SS all the info are already there but maybe I'll need someone to mark it as read on the ss. (not done yet)

Round 2, I have 4 books in my 2020tbr that would work for the Y with the Author and I should be able to read 2 of them.

Finished my first book and will start a new one tomorrow. As it's pretty late I'll update the SS tomorrow.

I found it thank you so much!

"Donna has set up a tab on our SS for each of us"

Yeah I can see the tab with the 200 tasks but I can't find the one for each of us. Is there a way you can send me a screenshot or something?

I'm halfway done with my first book The Nowhere Girls, I'll try to finish it for Thursday. I'm on a new medication that blurs my vision and I've had a hard time reading, I hope the side effects will fade soon so I can read faster/more books.

I have a question about the tasks. I read somewhere that each of us had assigned some tasks, is that accurate? Where can we see which tasks were assigned to us?- I looked at the SS and couldn't find anything - or can we complete any task?

Book suggestions!



Pretty much all YA though.

Still 1 hour to wait, we'll be starting soon!
Happy reading to y'all <3

I will probably be reading The Nowhere Girls first and then maybe The Night Circus (thanks for the recommendation I totally forgot I had it in my tbr)

Hi everyone!

I'm Catherine, it's my second wheel and I'm already excited. I really need to tackle that tbr pile that just doesn't end. I hope I can read a couple of them during those few weeks.

I'm a student currently on a medical break so I have a lot of time on my plate for now. (I'll just need to spend it wisely!)

My favorite book genre is any book with queer themes/characters, I read fiction and non-fiction. I am currently reading an historical fiction: Under the Udala Trees.

I'm soooo sorry those finals are taking up all my time. I feel very useless to this team. Plus I'm working tonight and all day tomorrow. I'll try real hard to finish the book I'm currently reading before the cut-off (well, before I get to work tomorrow morning), but I can't promise anything.
Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.
