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

I’m looking at this crossword puzzle for words on my phone & jotting them down, but I think I’m getting eye strain now. Lol

This one is fun. Found another 7-letter word. I’m finding others too. The wriggly lines are fun.

Just found a 7-letter word. I’m looking for those first.

BTW, I only got in 6 of my 6.75 books this week since How We Fight For Our Lives was "poetry" which is a total JOKE! But it is what it is!

IF we need more BINGO words, I can come up with some.

Carmen, I posted which is over 52% brown, according to TinEye. It might be better used for BINGO if the color will be questionable.

Oh, sorry.

Carmen, Ryan’s parents lived in a deluxe home. We both read From Lukov with Love so if you’re not already using what we both put already that’ll work.

Lol you’re right Trinia!

Plethora, I wasn’t getting notifications a couple days so it must be an issue they had.

I volunteer to do DQ’s for Team Jealousy.

Gosh, Carmen, thank goodness you were't hurt! In the city I live, I swear our drivers are reckless and think no one else is on the road! I've witnessed people RUN through both red lights and stop signs, not roll or ease through but run! My son-in-law was in his 3rd accident with this past year. The latest one in a roundabout with a young inexperienced driver on the inside and he was on the outside lane. She decided she was going to go OUT of the roundabout and hit his brand new car he bought about 3-4 weeks ago. He was upset but when he saw she was just a young girl he felt bad for her. LOL But thank God no one was hurt!

I read How We Fight For Our Lives today and for the LIFE of me, I can't figure out why but it has "poetry" as one of the genres on the MPG. I didn't read any poetry. He talks about how he wrote poetry and the PRELUDE has "Elegy with Grown Folks' Music" which is 1 1/3 pages, and I guess that one is considered poetry. Then at the very beginning of each section, PART ONE, PART TWO, PART THREE is a two-line poem (or saying) and one has four lines. PART FOUR has a letter introducing the section. I don't see that as poetry, but at any rate now I can't use it since we can't use "poetry."

At least it wasn't a LONG book like The Odyssey. It was only 192 pages.

That’s a good question for the captains to ask! Maybe that penalty is eliminated during this mini-challenge.
