No problem Berit! I agree, we've all worked great as a team.
Okay, I finished Speak, I think I saw that movie on Lifetime, It seemed really familiar to me, now I'm going to start The Naturals, really excited about this it seems different from a lot of the other stuff. I'm going to encourage my daughter to read this after I'm done, she's been binge watching Criminal Minds, but she doesn't like me to recommend books to her, and then hides it when she reads books that I told her were good ;-)
Was speak good? I was going to read that, but never got around to it
It was good, but I think she could've gone into some issues a little bit deeper, and I am around teenagers all the time and I just don't see them acting the way they are always pretrade in books. My daughter is a cheerleader and they always have the cheer girls being super nasty, it would be nice for them to have a nice cheerleader every once in a while ;-) also my son was a high school athlete and a lot of the stereotypes completely do not fit him at all, so sometimes it gets to me. Also the parenting is always ridiculously horrible in these books.
Haha I recommend books to Noella too but we always seem to be reading books the other hasn't read :P
Hey guys, do you think "Déjà Date (Better Date than Never series, Book, #9) " is valid for BAT? That's including the series name
Guys I don't think I can really do any challenges, because the library is having their holiday and it is closed. I will see if I have some books for a description but I doubt I do.
@MarkusHave you tried Scribd? You can sign up for a month's free trial :)
, Hoping it works ;-) We'll figure it out, it will get done, somehow, someway, Christina, not quite sure about that BAT description
Ok that's alright. I started Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight for BAT and can always use that :)
I have used the free trial already, I can still read for pages and maybe a few descriptions, haven't reall looked yet.
Aww ok. I'm guessing the library doesn't have an ebook lending facility either? That's alright. Pages help :P
That's fine Mark as you can read for pages or whatever works, it's all good!
I forget what it's like not to have an endless amount of books at my instant disposal!
I could read Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry for book about bullying, it looks like the main is bullied. Can anyone let me know?
I already did that description, and haven't you already done that? It can fit romance, can you fit your romance book somewhere else? It's a good book if you just read it for page count that's fine :-)
LOL! Maybe there is a secondary character name Sarah somewhere in that book ;-) just read it and enjoy and don't stress!
Oh I absolutely forgot about doing bullying! I could do the book published in 1995 and read High Fidelity, don't think it would be of much help though.
Mod
May I use The Field Guide as 100 pages? There are some pictures. Thanks"
It looks like that one only has a word count of 9844 words, so we wouldn't be able to count it unfortunately. You could submit it for 40 pages if you've already read it.
Mod
You can use that ☺
Mod
Can I read Shock of the Fall for trees on the cover or is anyone already doing that?
Thanks Sarah!I think Anna was going to do trees but it might as well be first come first serve since there's less than two days left! thanks Markus!
I think we used your books for a lot of game 3 part 1 ;)
Done with the other J book. I'll start on U in a few hours. I'll post the review for both when I'm done with U.
@Sarah I did not finish Cider House Rules, can I submit the pages that I've read, and do I use the edition I'm reading or calculate pages read with the edition containing the highest page count? I got to 47% done.
Oh good! If you're reading like a crazy person you want to be reading books you like ;-)
Mod
You can calculate it from the edition with the higest number of pages ☺ I think it will be like 458 pages?
Was it bad?
@Sarah Ok, thanks. It's not a bad book, it's just kind of slow. Much of the story is a bit redundant.
I really like that book, but it's probably not a good quick read ;-) I just wrote a couple reviews, will post them when I get back from getting my nails done :-)
I'm about halfway done with Bridge to Terabithia. I should be able to finish it tonight and write a review when I get off work!
@Berit I like the book, it's just really long. I was listening to the audio book and the narrator is not the best so maybe that's part of the problem. lol.
Mod
yesterday. Listening to a really long, slow book for hours on end gets a bit old.
I do a lot of audiobooks, but I need to be cleaning or exercising or doing something or I lose complete focus :-)
Ugh! Sorry guys. My U book is only 99 pages long. :-(I'm going to look for another one. If I can't find a new one I will reread one of the U books on my list.
What a bummer! Just a page short ;-)
Okay, believe it or not I think I'm going to finish all 37 descriptions by tomorrow morning, so I should be able to redo probably one description, that is my goal anyways :-)I'll definitely do Sarah so we can finish off part one on the fourth game, unless Jackie has posted her review or wants us to post a review, I'll go check up on her progress :-)
I know and my rereads are much longer. oh well, that just means more pages for us.
Nikinnia if you have scribd Try up to date by Susan Hatler. That's what I did. It was short and sweet!
Well done berit. You're a legend!
@Christina Yes I have scribd, but I'm more than halfway done with the other one. Thank you anyway. I do want to continue that series. I got the first one free on amazon, and didn't know it was on scribd.
Cool! No problemsYou're owning game 3 :p
It looks like I can only complete one more description for game 4 part 1 which is BAT. Currently half way :)
Just finished Bridge to Terabithia! Writing up my review now!
Fantastic! About to finish my animal book :-)
Yay! That means we're really close to finishing Part 1 again!
Yes, we just need Sarah, fingers crossed, Jackie sees this and has finished her book :-)
We're doing such a fabulous job :D
