Nyssa’s comments from the MobileRead Book Challenges group.

Thank you, both! :)

Where is this year going so quickly!?!

I've been reading quite a bit but have been terrible about keeping up with my various goals - Buddy Reads, Popsugar, KU, etc. I have no idea where I am or what I'm doing book-wise! It's both sad and comical! LOL

As for "the real world," I am now a licensed insurance agent and have completed my newest position's first (of six) weeks of training.
This will be the fourth campaign I've worked on at my employer, and I'm excited to learn something new. The best part is that my license stays with me even if I leave the company.

Congratulations on the new role! Hopefully, with time, you'll develop practices that make it feel less taxing.

I read Fairy Tale last year and really enjoyed it. It was the first King novel I've read in decades. I hope you find it to be a good read, too!

It's great that the house is coming along so well. :)

Thanks (((Hugs Back)))

I'm having a biopsy done on Thursday, so fingers crossed."

So, I realize that I never followed up on this.

My body painfully rejected the idea of the biopsy, and they were not able to complete it. They want me to get additional ultrasounds in a few months.

In the meantime, I've been reading and working like crazy.
Which leads me to a new poll: Which Bookstagram Recommendation Should I Try First?

Lovely! 🙂

(((HUGS))) I’m so sorry Steph.

Thank you all.

I'm having a biopsy done on Thursday, so fingers crossed.

LOL. I honestly can't remember if I liked them as a kid, nor if I liked Nancy Drew. I know I read a few.

They both sound intense and interesting!

Good luck with Brave Sgtory!!

Hi Christa!

I also hate driving in real life and will not drive on the highway!

It sounds like your wrist healed nicely. :)

I hope everything goes well with work this summer!!

Best wishes with the renovations! They sound both exciting and stressful!

I finished a book!

...that is all"


Hey, DP!

Ditto what Christa said about wanting to continue a series just for the cost to squash the idea.

I hope you found other good reads this month!

Hi Stephanie,

I hope May is treating you well. Good Luck with the medical issues.

Hi GA.

Checking in. I hope all is going well with you.

Wow, it's been about two months since my last update!
Well, in that time:

- My work situation has become annoying. I'm waiting for this campaign to end in July and am curious about my next one.
- My family and I have had to deal with ongoing medical issues.
- My buddy-reading schedule has disintegrated into a puddle of goo.

But I am still reading daily, so that's always a plus.
As for now, I'll focus on whichever series captures my attention the most.

Oh My Goodness, Christa!

I wish you a complete and speedy recovery!

You are the third or fourth person I've heard compare Oberon to Scooby Doo. LOL

I agree about the chemistry, but I am also a HEA girl at heart, so their romance doesn't bother me.

It's that fact that Atticus apparently (view spoiler)[ends up alienating everyone and alone (hide spoiler)] that ruins the series for me.
