I'm still working on my 800 pages description just in case. I'm taking a break to eat supper though and then back to Unremembered.

I'm reading Unremembered right now it has at least 320 pages."


This version has 433 pages :) :) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Whatever edition you have, you at least have to get to page 275 to fulfill your 800 pages (if my math is correct).

You guys are very close to finishing the second game and getting those 40 bonus points! You just need to finish
- Read a book set in a boarding school
- Roll a five or an eight – read 800 pages of your choice (can be made up from more than 1 book.) ☺

Tati Morning, girls!

Finished my J book ( Jackaby (Jackaby, #1) by William Ritter ) and moved on to a M book ( The Master (The Game Maker, #2) by Kresley Cole ) but I can't guarantee I'll be done with it by the end of the day

message 1318: by Tati (new)

Tati Ubah, to find a buddy read, go to this thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

and post the books you want to read. If someone else is interested, you then set the date and the thread and discuss the book on that thread.

Tati I'm fairly confident I can finish The Master until tonight, but that'll be it, I won't be able to finish another book today.

Thank you! You've done so much for this team!! It was a pleasure being on your team this month. Thanks for all your reading :)


message 1333: by Tati (new)

Tati Yeah, I've read like crazy this month, it's a wonder my eyes didn't fall out.

Danielle, it was a pleasure being on your team, your organization skills made it so easy to figure out what needed to be read (and they made me a little jealous LOL)

LOL thank you - its one of my great pleasures in life. I would be the world's best secretary / personal assistance, I promise you that :D LOL I would love to be a mod one day, doing all the tracking and updating work, I can't imagine how Sarah keeps up with this large group! ...

You are my hero Sarah! :) I'm so glad I found this book club though - it really is the best, this is my second month (I started with May's Bookish Blocks) and I love it!!!

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Danielle I was thinking it seems unlikely at this point that we are going to finish part 3 so if we shift some things around we might still be able to do part 4. What do you think?


message 1336: by Tati (new)

Tati What do we still need for part 4?


message 1337: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Tati wrote: "What do we still need for part 4?"

U,M,N,J and if my shifting works we'd only need M and N.

Tati wrote: "What do we still need for part 4?"

If you (Tati) finish M, we only need U, N, & J but I don't see how we could move anything around - what did you have in mind Bookbuyer?

It's too bad I couldn't stick with Under the Never Sky for U :( I just don't have time now... 12 hrs & 16 mins left & I have a work party I can't get out of tonight.

Well at first I though that Jessica had posted her reviews for the 800 but I went back and she didn't (why is it crossed off on your list btw?). So if she does since hers can't be switched to anything in JUMANJI then instead of mine going for the 2nd round hers can and my two books Jewel and Unremembered can be used for J and U.

I crossed it off because she said she was done reading & she'll be posting her reviews this evening, so they are done.

That would work, Bookbuyer!!! But we need someone to read N!!! Edita - can you read N instead of horror???

Still at 50% but it's a pretty fast read. Except for my nap I had a 90% chance of finishing it already. I'm getting back to it in a few.

KK. So can we do that switch? Then we only need 'N'.

Danielle ♥ (readwithmedani) | 2410 comments JESSICA when you post your reviews for The Shadowhunter's Codex & The Bane Chronicles for 800 pages, please post them towards Round/Game TWO! We are switching some things around for more points (read above :) ) Thanks!!!

Yeah I doubt you can. And I doubt I can finish The Selection and read a "N" book today unless I find a really short "N" book and abandon The Selection!!
