Gen’s comments from the Crazy Challenge Connection group.

Ok then, our name will be Story Legends, chosen by the majority. I'll go ahead and send a message to southpaw to announce our team name.

I see everyone has confirmed their participation in this challenge. It's crazy what I can miss in just 8 hours. ouf.

Now we just need a name, here are the "nominees":

Book Warriors
Story Legends
7 Deadly Sins
7 Sexy Bookworm Bitches

Post you choice below.

Thanks for the support Cynthia!

Well that still depends on the choice of the other members.

Actually, I would like to be captain. *super shy* If nobody would mind.

I'm in!

I'll read To the Edge for the suspense shelf.

I finished a A Discovery of Witches and I gave it 5*. I found it amazing, I loved the story, the mysteries, not to forget the ROMANCE. Ah, Matthew, what a man (vampire).

I'll read Fifty Shades of Grey for the chick-lit shelf.

I finished Jane and I gave it 4*. I never read Jane Eyre but I saw the movie (love Michael Fassbender), and to me, this book was almost as good but I thought it was too similar (duh! it's a retelling).

I'll read Jane for the mystery shelf.

I'll read A Discovery of Witches for the novels shelf.

I finished Ready Player One for the own self and I gave it 5*. It is now one of my favorite novels, and I can only describe it as AMAZING. I was never a fan of the 80's, but this book made me want to watch the movies, tv-shows and listen to the songs mentionned in this one.

I'll read The Color of Magic for the favorites shelf.

I'll read Ready Player One for the own shelf.
