Vicki’s Comments (group member since May 01, 2018)

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

CAPTAINS: I added characters' names to the following posts: 682, 736, 737, 759, and 760

I don't know if any of them will help, but I do have a V and Z which are sometimes harder to find.

That's good to know! Thank you, Sarah.

Good luck! I can't even remember names most of the time when I finish a book and have to look it up lol. My memory is terrible but..."

Erin, that's why I said I'll add the names I can remember. While I was on vacation I wrote down the names of book characters as I read, but when I thought we didn't need them anymore I stopped. MY memory is so awful that sometimes I literally can't even remember the MC's name, no kidding. I have to look back or at the book jacket or whatever. It's awful!

Okay, Erin, I’ll add the names I remember. Thanks.

Don't worry, we have still 6 days to go"

Should I go back and add the characters' names that I can remember?

Thanks, Ashley. It is massive and so sad for a lot of people. When I was still there people were preparing for a hit because even if it didn't hit land, they were talking about up to 30 inches of rain! Landslides occurred right away and the combination of the erupted volcano and rain evidently is not a good one! Hawaiians can use our thoughts/prayers.

Thank you, Julie. I'm glad to be home and that's something I normally wouldn't say after being in Hawaii. LOL

My apologies to the entire team for holding you up! I honestly forgot about this challenge because I had not added it to my SS before I went to Hawaii.

Thank God my sister and I left Hawaii the night before the storm hit. It was our planned departure date/time but it was scary watching the hurricane as it approached the islands! Winds at one time were 180 mph and I've never been in a hurricane so I was definitely scared.

I added two books today but I wasn't able to fit either in a spot for the Tri-Wizard tasks. :(

Question: I thought for some reason that we no longer needed to add the characters' names, but I see that some of us are and some aren't. Should I add them or do we not need them anymore?

But we have still a bunch of other tasks what we still need to finish :)"

Oh, okay, I thought we needed two books read. I'm looking to see what other books I have that will work for other tasks.

Just thought I'd try since I'm already reading it. LOL

Is it too much of a stretch to use for #71 "Read a book with a feast or dinner item on the cover"? We all drink something as part of our dinner, or does it have to be a solid food/soup?

Nikki wrote: "I actually have both Nine's Legacy and The Fallen Legacies on my ereader, so I can take one of those if it's still needed!"

I can read the other book, Nikki. Just tell me which one you are going to read. I can do the other one today.

I'm not sure which books for sure that we need read, but I don't mind reading the one that Kristina read if someone will give me the name of it and I can get it.

And what are the two that she read that were barely over 100 pages? I can check on those as well and let you know if I can get them and read them. I'll see what I can do.

If I read a book for "love in the title" can it be in the series title?

I've read the first two books, so I could read The Rise of Nine (book 3) if that helps/works.
