I think it's for the challenge. I'm not sure what pages I should put down.

I really liked The Witness. Normally her stand alones don't grab me like her trilogies do but this one is probably my favorite.

Can't you just click the hardcover version and choose "switch to this edition" and use that one for your count?

Finished A Perfect Blood yesterday during the only part of the day that I wasn't drugged up too much to read. (I had gum grafting yesterday)

Now I'm trying to finish some partially read ebooks so I can go on to the two new library books I picked up:
Divergent and Home Improvement: Undead Edition.

I don't know how to do that. (never mind, I figured it out. thanks Teresa)

Just a quickie while my code is compiling - work today is still on fire!

TEAM A:1257
TEAM B:1291
TEAM C:1324
TEAM D:1170

Team C is unstoppable. Good thing we're having a Read-a-Thon next week. Almost there, only 3 days to go.

Happy Readings!!!!

Nancy, I think what you're saying is that you want to update your reading status, but because you have the wrong edition selected, the page number isn't accurate? Is that right? You can change the edition easily by choosing "More editions..." in the top right corner of Green River, Running Red: The Real Story of the Green River Killer--America's Deadliest Serial Murderer's page, then selecting the edition you have.

Edit: saw that you figured it out. I was on the previous page!

Just finished up will be starting a new book for sure tomorrow for a team challenge. Probably will pick up something to start reading today though, just haven't decided what exactly that will be.

Stephanie, how are you liking the Fever series?

Finished and started . Will be leaving tomorrow for Mississippi and will not ba back until the 17th. Will update progress when I return. (Won't have computer access until I get home.)

Have a safe trip.

Finished , can't wait to see the movie :)

Now working on and

hi. I'm just checking in so everyone knows I'm still alive and participating ;D.

I'm going to be starting today.

Nancy I understand you mean. click the book to open it and you will see the summary for it. On the right it shows other editions and select the one that matches your edition you are reading. It will ask you if you want to change to this edition.

Edit: Me too. LOL I guess I should look to see if it still needs to be answered.

Thanks for trying to help.

Completed today. I have just over 100 pages left in , so I should be able to finish it tomorrow and have a clean slate for starting the Read-A-Thon.

I've finished .

I'd like to read , by Barbara Kingsolver someday. It's been on my TBR for years.

I just finished reading it and it was amazing. Now i'm little sad that it's over :(

It was excellent. I was listening to the audiobook which could have used multiple narrators to help distinguish whose chapter I was listening to - but still very well narrated. I kept stopping the book to tell my husband or daughter-in-law something that had just been said. Very good prose.

New Rules for Round II

Sign-ups Round II thread

I am reading on my kindle and I am loving it. I got it only for .99

Finished just in time to start the RaT with a clean slate! Starting in the morning.

This is one of my favorite books of all time. It really sticks with you.

Good morning, A-Team! Hope everyone's gearing up for our Read-a-Thon!

ShoSho, technically it starts in two hours, at 8:00 PDT, but if you want to go ahead, we won't stop you. :-D

For day one of the Read-a-Thon, I plan to read:


What about all of you?

R-A-T Update

Completed The Llama of Death: A Gunn Zoo Mystery by Betty Webb

Books read: 1
Pages read: 257
Pages to go: 1743

I started my first book for the R-A-T: . So far it has some funny moments but I'm not sure what I think of it overall yet.

I just finished , which I liked a lot more than I thought I would.

Later tonight, I should finish , the newest book in one of my favorite series.

Books read: 1

@ Ashley I really enjoyed both Masque of the Red Death and The Name of the Star. Hope you like them! Let me know what you think.

@ Ashley Marie I keep forgetting Scarlet is out! Ahh, I need to read it.

READ-A-THON UPDATE
Listened to around 6 hours straight of Under the Jolly Roger: Being an Account of the Further Nautical Adventures of Jacky Faber, which amounts to about 206 pages if my calculations are correct.

Pages:
206/1300

I am still reading and I don't know what I am going to read next

I am reading . I wasn't that into the book till I reached page 192 (and sneaked it on work for the read-a-thon) and now I just can't stop reading it! I'll probably will stay up late to finish it, 6 chapters left.

It's super good so far. I'm about 250 pages in, and I'm glad I'm reading it for the 'thon. I'd be power reading it anyway, so it might as well count for the week!

READ-A-THON UPDATE


DAY #1
Pages Read: 247
Books Read: 1



Books I'm planning on working/finishing during the RaT week:

I'm reading for the read-a-thon. It's very intimidating. I've never read a book that was over 1000 pages before.

Grr Goodreads is not letting me add my books. It keeps saying No Book Found :(

Gah I was just going to add the books I read and going to read but the add book thing doesn't work!

Same here

Looks like everyone is having issues! Perhaps they were performing maintenance behind the scenes or something.
