Proud of you Noa!

I was going to start the clock one or have you already done it?

Karen, are you going to continue on with the Outlander series or was one book enough for you?

It's kind of nice after the frantic reading of Uno just to meander through a book. I'm enjoying it before the onslaught of WOBBLE, LOL.

M- Connection: Morland Dynasty series.

I probably will because I like small town romance contemporaries set in the US which often have these things. Although while I'm away for 3 weeks I won't get a chance to read as much so go for it . I don't mind whether separate or together whatever you guys decide on is fine with me.

Here's another vote for Anna Karenina. Many people who know say this is perhaps the best book ever written. But the characters were all so flawed and the writing itself was long winded. It does adapt well to a TV drama series though, I much preferred watching the BBC version than actually reading it.

As for contemporary romance novels I really hated Thoughtless that someone had also already mentioned. I couldn't stand the heroine or the premise of the story.

wow, Noa. That's great. No clock for me so far but I'll see what I've got on the TBR.

I've finished the BABY one.

Finished Lake /Ocean.

Next up Green Dress.

Yes, that incident is certainly one of the most contentious incidents in the novel (and there is another one later on) which has caused lots of discussion amongst fans. As you move through the books the historical aspect and the attention to the details of living in the time period become equally if not more important as the romance.

No problemo, Karen. I'm guessing this is a pretty relaxed challenge. I've put in a few but the next couple of books I'm planning to read don't fit and then WOBBLE starts...

How are you enjoying Outlander. Is it your type of thing?

I found this guilty pleasure for Baby- I love the cheesy name.

Finished my road Book with 5 big stars. It was the final book linking a series and a spin off series and ticked all the boxes.

I'd say pick which one you want to read the most, Dion. Hope your performance went well on the weekend.

Thanks Noa... (view spoiler)[ It was relatively painless, LOL and I guess I'll get better at it, wink.. (hide spoiler)]

Is there a number of pages requirement for Bingo?
