Sorry, I missed this message until like yesterday. XD Have you read it already???
Girls, I am quite new to audio books but I started enjoying them. Do you have a favorite audio book of yours to recommend? :)
Kathryn wrote: "Petra I'm new to audiobooks as well! I'm on my first one, Red Rising, which is quite good. Also, I seem to buy books everywhere I go! I went to the cinema today and came back with 4 new books :)"
Same here... My problem is that I live in the Czech Republic but love reading books in English - and it's really painful to buy English books here so I have to order from the UK usually and the P&P is killing me! So I usually read ebooks :D as for audio - I am currently listening to Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and it's beautiful!! :)
Kathryn wrote: "Yeah I have, I'm sorry :( but I can still chip in in a BR thread if you want"Nah, it's cool--sorry I missed your message! Was it as awesome a read as I've heard from others?
Kathryn wrote: "Not really. I didn't think it was think special - it was boring and I didn't think it was exactly a "thriller" as it was described. I rated it 2* - just haven't actually written the review yet."Really? That's bad, I was planning to read it... one day :D
Kathryn wrote: "Not really. I didn't think it was think special - it was boring and I didn't think it was exactly a "thriller" as it was described. I rated it 2* - just haven't actually written the review yet."Oh, boy. XD
Kathryn wrote: "Do we have a strategy for picking boxes or are we just picking random ones?"Good question... I've been picking random ones...
I've been picking at random too. XD
Kathryn wrote: "I've been "stalking" some of the other teams threads and they seem to have strategies...oh well. :)"Well I think the only way how to find out which box is which number is to pick for all books read in a week the same number right? then you can devide it by the number of books you read... bummer if you pick zero... :D
Kathryn wrote: "I guess so haha! Btw am reading book #4 right now, and have an audiobook on the go. Reviews should be up by Wednesday - don't worry I'm not slacking Hehehe :)"
I am reading The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry and I love it! It's short and amazing! And I am listening to Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore - not the best thing ever but still pretty good!
Kathryn wrote: "I'm glad you're enjoying them! I'm reading Salt and Storm (Fire and Flood #2) by Victoria Scott, and my audiobook is Red Rising by Pierce Brown.

I love holiday too! I finished all my exams in May and I had incredible June as a reading month! Although I should start working on my master thesis... :D
I haven't been able to get completely into reading... I have had to work but after tomorrow it'll b full mode...
@Kathryn thanks for the updates .. makes choosing the boxes much easier :)
Yay xD go team ^_^
I am starting a book with over 1000 pages... so I may not look like I am reading, but I am, trust me girls :D

Does anybody want to read
from July, 30? :)
I am reading one book at the moment and it's a BR .. Hopefully I'll be done with it tonight .. But it's ramadan and my reading time is very limited :(
Mid month personal summary (because Kathryn made it look so cool):I've read 9 books so far (approximately...2,965 pages total, because several were shorter than my usual) I've really enjoyed three or four of them, hoping to get several more in before the end of the month, with two buddy reads planned.
I'm about 32% through my current read, which I'm REALLY enjoying; should be able to knock the rest of it out tomorrow after work, seeing as it's my Friday.
Not been reading as much lately as past months; I've been completely exhausted and have instead been coming home to nap after work most days. Oops.
How is everyone?!
my mid month summary:I've read 11 books / 4100ish pages
Reading one book right now
I plan to read 3 by this week all BRs
Didn't plan for the rest of the month
I am currently 40 % in The Way of Kings... what a big book! For the second half of the month I have planned 5 BRs but I think I can read a bit more as I am particiating in TBR Takedown 2.0 readathon
WOW Petra .. Keep it up :)
I have one review to write and 3 BRs left :)
I'm done with one book (not BR) and i think I'll be done with another and put the reviews up today :)
Let's do our best ;)
Go Reds ❤️
All my review are up! It was a crazy reading month! :)
I'll have one more posted before the end of the night. :)
I'm planning to finish 2 books today both BR .. Maybe a third but I am not sure .. hopefully we get back to first place :)
