Welcome to the virtual mountains! Good luck with your climb!

Good luck! Glad you're joining me for a virtual climb.

Good luck! [I know better than to think I won't buy more books... :-) ]

I'm participating in both TBR challenges this year. Thanks, Bev, for creating this one! I admit that I feel guilty when I read a borrowed book over one on my TBR pile. Quick question: Do books borrowed from friends, or listened to on Spotify or other services count?"

Any book that you do not own and cannot keep counts.

I know what you mean---I was very tempted to commit to Mt. Seleya just so I could say I had visited Mr. Spock's home world. :-)

Good Luck with your virtual climb!

Yes, you can't beat Max. I have a feeling I'll wind up on Mt. Crumpit with you....

You are welcome! I'm just glad that so many folks are enjoying the challenges with me.

So, glad you found us. I just knew that I needed to make this one after I kept getting questions about library books, etc for Mount TBR. Especially since all of the library challenges that I used to do seem to have disappeared.

Welcome to the virtual mountain climb, Mimi!

Me too! I always get itchy towards the end of the year to get started on the next year's challenges. (Nevermind that I'm not done with this year's yet.)

Welcome to Rum Doodle! I'll see you at the top.

As long as they are not something that you buy and keep. I don't do Kindle (or other e-books), so I don't know how they work. I'll have to trust you all on those. :-)

Hi, Abi and Tari! So glad you're climbing the virtual mountains with me.

So glad you're joining me on the virtual mountains! Good luck clearing those shelves.

So glad you're joining me on both mountain climbs!

Yeah...me too. That probably explains why I can never quite make it to the top of Olympus in my own stacks....

Well, it is my home planet ;-)"

Welcome, Gayle! And I am SO glad to see that someone is going to try and visit Vulcan in 2019. :-)

Welcome to the virtual mountains! Good luck with your 2019 climb.
