Volunteering for Dez!

I have 3 - 400+ pagers coming up. I'm working on 2 at the moment and then another!

ETA: This is what I'm trying to finish this month, shouldn't be a problem unless something WILD happens.

The Red (Tiffany Reisz): 235pgs
Demons of Good and Evil (Kim Harrison): 464pgs
Lore (Alexandra Bracken): 480pgs
Certain Dark Things (Silvia Moreno-Garcia): 272pgs
Twisted Games (Ana Huang): 456pgs
You Shouldn't Have Come Here (Jeneva Rose): 350pgs

I'm probably going to start these sometime next week, but I definitely won't finish for June:
Empire of Storms (Sarah J. Maas) : 689pgs
Tower of Dawn (Sarah J. Maas): 688pgs

The end of the month will be a little busy for me, so I don't know if I'll get to more than above, but it's always possible!

Finished my map book! :)

Just started Fable - it has a map!

Sorry about yet another sudden disappearance, but if all goes to plan, that should be the last!

I was whisked back to the hospital last week, with a very seriously infected gal..."

Oh good! Let the healing finally commence!!

I just started a 400 pager last night because I just couldn't wait... and promptly fell asleep during the first chapter... but it will help with the 400 tower!

Finished my chipmunk book :)

Alrighty, my guess is it'll take me no more than 2 weeks. I'm giving myself extra time, in case I am busy or the books drag in the middle, and I only read these at night in bed. I will try to start them the last week of June then. I have some other books I want to catch up with anyway.

I'm trying to decide when to read Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn. Both are 600+ pagers, but I plan to do the tandem read everyone recommends, so I'm not sure how long it'll take me. Should I plan to have them finished in July? We only need 3 more 600+ books, and I know several people are reading the BOM.

I'll be starting Fable (Adrienne Young) next week, so that can work for a Y :)

Its a short one, so I'm thinking I'll have it read soon."

I'm glad you did Sonia, because I did the same thing, plus my library wish list and audible.... and was NOT impressed with my findings, especially considering the length of time it took me to search... haha

I started it late last night because I was so excited after finishing Queen of Shadows, and had to force myself to stop halfway so I could get enough sleep to function today. In hindsight, I slept terribly, so I probably should have just finished it, since that would have been a preferrable form of sleep deprivation...

FYI - I know "X Marks the Spot" is one of the "themes" for chipmunk. I don't know if we will get anything else for that, but I'm (finally) reading Magic Tides and there is treasure on the cover.

I can read Second Chance Angel, but I have to finish my library books first. So I have a book and a half in front of it. Maybe around Friday or Monday... is that too long?

The book I just finished deals with adultery!!

The Villa (Rachel Hawkins)

Yep, seems like a site-wide issue. Can't do a thing! I sent a message to GR, but I'm sure (I hope) they know already and are working on it.

And none of my books are working at the moment for Chipmunks.. boo

Ack! Demons of Good and Evil is out too! It's a wild release day!! I am in the middle of all these great books and MORE BOOKS.... MORE BOOKS I can't read yet, it's killing me.

I KNEW I should have checked my email!
