Sha’s comments from the The Perks Of Being A Book Addict group.

I read an anthology where each story happens in a different place. Can I use any of these places for the setting?

Sorry about the slowdown. I'm going to be busy till the 25th. :/

tbh that's what i was thinking too when i saw that prompt. any book ending with babies ever after. //snickers

is passionfruit the same as passion? because i do have a romance novel i'm reading...

i made a mini challenge tracker sheet because i was starting to get confused. feel free to take it down if that's not okay.

I keep side-eyeing passionfruit. I have no clue how to fill that.

:/ That's disappointing. I tried reading one and couldn't get into it and I was hoping it was just my mood being a diva again.

I've read most of the Lunar Chronicles and had mixed feelings about it, which I know is down to me being picky. :D Friends have read it and loved it and figuratively smacked me over the head with the books screaming "what is wrong with you?"

I really like all of the T. Kingfisher fairytale retellings because she zeroes in on the parts I want retold. Indexing (modern day police procedural ft. fairy tale incursions) was really fun too. Oh, and Deerskin and The Goose Girl.

Nah. Sleeping Beauty.

Thanks, Kelly. :D I added them to the tbr space elevator.

I love fairytale retellings so much? The last one I read was The Raven and the Reindeer (Snow Queen) and I'm a little restless for another, for some reason.

@Kelly Ooh, fairytale retellings I love those. Which ones?

Kelly wrote: "The cover I’m reading has a stomach on it. And he’s kinda shredded haha."
oooh i like that. it should work. :D

I'm usually in the middle of multiple series but I think i'm only actively reading two series-books right now? does waiting for the next book in an ongoing series count?

yep, so long as it's one of the cards in our hands. We have a Red 2 in one of the hands so it can be used for WD4. But we don't have a green 1 so we can't use that.

the book i'm reading has a character named moon

Okay so you know how every hand has a Color Card in the last line, right? When there is a WD4 you read a book that fits any of those color cards.

How do wild cards work?"
i think i answered this already;

1. Wild Draw 4 cards; where you have to read a book which satisfies the requirements for any colored card you have that month.
2. Wild: where you need to read a book that satisfies the requirement of any other card in the same hand.

let me know if that hasn't cleared it up. :)

kaylee, where in the spreadsheet do we note down options for mini challenges?

don't we already have books allotted to those?

Yes.

Any word on the mini challenge?

DNF reviews are easier than other reviews because you have so many emotions and they all need to come out. Preferably in a torrent of rage. That's how it's for me, anyway. XD

Really positive reviews are very hard because there is so much to say and how many superlatives can a person use before it gets weird? //stares despondently at The Iron Will of Genie Lo

Mikayla, I was filling up the spreadsheet and noticed you'd put Officer Woodwork and King Clarksen in the slots? That wouldn't count as per the FAQs.

Never read warriors so I'm no help there. Is the reservation because they are animal stories?
