That's awesome Fiona, what role are you playing? Good luck!

I finished All the Bright Places last night and think I deserve a day off today to properly process the story. Oh my heart.

I may need to reread soon - as a listen :)

That's one of my all time favorite books! I bet the audio is fantastic.

Thanks Rachel, wishful thinking! Those are great books, I hope you enjoy them.

Do you think the 4 in Connect 4 can be the 4th in a series or the title has to have a 4/four?

It's helpful that we can use the names of items on book covers. I need to plan some reading.

Rachel - what Gaiman do you think you'll be reading?

wow, awesome job Shamber!

7 down - candy land

oh boy, looks challenging but fun.

8 down - Connect 4
9 down- Ouiga?

How did you like Cinder?

I feel conflicted! Part of me is very excited. Ready Player One is awesome and it would be fantastic if the sequel had similar exciting and endearing qualities without just being more of the same. But I am skeptical. Ready Player One is SO unique and well done and while there is plenty of story left to be told after the conclusion it felt, to me, like it ended on the right note. I'm not sure if he would have the same characters or a whole new cast. I know I will read it and am hopeful that Cline can capture the same magic he created with the first book, I'm just not sure a sequel is necessary.

Thanks Myzan!

Spreadsheet question - I've been updated the general spreadsheet where we list each book we read and what categories apply. Are we also filling out our other team spreadsheet, with the specific cards needed, at this time or do we wait a little before we start that? Thanks!

Surprise date with hubby and time with your girls sounds really nice!

Having a great weekend, perfect mix of plans and down time (aka reading! )

oh good to know! I do a lot of audio books. Where did you find the info?

I found this is the Questions? thread

Are audiobooks allowed
Audiobooks are okay to use. You'll use the information from the default edition

I don't see anything about hours but I could be missing it

Rachel wrote: "Does anyone know how long an audiobook has to be to count?"

I would think it depends on how long the paper version of the audiobook is.

I nominate White Oleander by Janet Fitch
