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

I finished Girl Mans Up and added it under letter I but it can also fit letter G, M, P, and R.

I’m ready to move on but I say we give the others time to read their book and Slytherpuff time to fix her book issues so she can stay on the team.

Is anyone still planning to read this? There was a start for Nov. 15 but I just now saw this.

Jenny, would you want to read in December? Maybe towards the beginning of the month?

I'd love to read The Odyssey with you, preferably in February. I might be gone a lot in January.

GO, Cecily! Woot woot!

I’m conflicted this year because two of my daughters are having dinner at their places. I’ve never had to decide between two places before or end up going to two different places which I’ll end up doing.

One of my grandsons is going to come spend the night. He’s 16 and lives a little over an hour away. So he’ll want to go to both places and see his cousins. I really do hate that we’re splitting up this year but it is what it is.

I won’t have to cook anything so that’s nice. The last few years we’ve had Thanksgiving at my daughter Heather’s house and I haven’t had to cook. She puts on a good spread. Lol

Life isn’t perfect so we deal with the ups and downs the best we can. I have a TON of things to be thankful for this year, and that’s what Thanksgiving is all about to me. Thinking of and sharing what you’re thankful for.

Great! I’m glad it worked out for you to use it.

For this week we can do "Pilgrim" or "Colonial" as the word in the text. Ironically Crazy Rich asians kept having that word but I think it fit better finishing..."

Okay, I'm going to remove it from the word in text then and hopefully someone else can fill that one. :)

LOL It seems as though you are like most of us...human! :)

Good luck, Erin!

Question: I added ONE book for two different bonus tasks but not sure if that's allowed. I added it just in case someone can't find the word in text. I am definitely adding "word in title" for bonus points, so anyone can feel free to remove my book for "in text" if they want to or if it's not allowed to have one book for two, feel free to remove it or tell me too. Man, I'm too wordy! LOL

My library still doesn't even have it and, after looking it up again today, I realized that not only doesn't it have it but it never even ordered it! 4 other libraries in our system ordered it so once it arrives to those libraries, I'll have to wait for the book to be sent to my library before I can even get it. I think I'll have to buy this one in order to read it and do the questions for BOM points, or whatever.

Wow! We did really great this past week. I am ready and have begun for week 4. lol Let's GOOOOOOOOO TEAM!

My library still doesn’t even have the book in. I might have to bow out or break down and buy it.

How does everyone like it so far?

Erin, is finally at my library so I'll pick it up today or maybe tomorrow. I'll read it for next week's PILGRIM.

I also moved to next week simply because I'm reading another book that will fit the G letter and Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy fits quite a few letters, so I placed it under letter R but it actually fits all these: G, L, M, P, R so I know you move books around a lot and I won't know which letter will be most needed.

Or is that TMI? Lol

I think next week will be the perfect time for me to finally read The Iron Fey series! I assume that will count for I and the article THE can be left out , right? There are several books in the series. :)

Do we get extra points for the letter I?

I still will be able to finish my books, all except Empire of the Storms because that STILL hasn’t arrived at my library. But my others I’ll get done.

I am on my phone so I can’t tell what letter we need but I just finished an R book that I don’t have on the SS. I’ll update when I’m home.

Congratulations, Ashleigh!

I’m ready to move on! I also agree with Samantha & Diane and think that’s fair.
