Hello! Are you looking for someone to sprint with?


message 9009: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) I can sprint if someone is up for it. Need serious motivation to get through Red Rising (Red Rising Trilogy, #1) by Pierce Brown


message 9010: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Sarah, I will sprint too! I need motivation to get through Me Squared


message 9011: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) Not heard of that one, you'll have to let me know what you think. I know Trinity didn't really like it. Do you want to do short or long?

faerie queen (missbookworm24) | 9 comments Sorry i might sound weird, but what do you mean by sprinting? x


message 9013: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Yeah, I am not enjoying it. :( Let's do a 15 minute one! Maybe at :05

Well this is the reading sprint thread. We pick a time and length and we read as much of the book we are currently reading as possible and at the end of the sprint we come back and say how many pages we read! (:


message 9015: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) We set a time, and how long we'll 'sprint' for, and then during the sprint you basically just read whatever book you're reading and try not to get distracted by goodreads etc. ☺

faerie queen (missbookworm24) | 9 comments Oohhh coool! I'd love to do that

Okay how is :05 (time we start) for 15? (how many minutes we read)


message 9018: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) I can do that ☺

I hate reading books that aren't good. They always put me in reading slumps.

I hat..."



It's when you get loads in a row that its even worse. this is just rubbish though. I feel like i should like it, but i haven't got a clue what is going on anymore. Should hopefully finish soon though!


message 9037: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah I could see how that would be bad. I read the synopsis of the story and it seemed pretty good, but it's too bad that it isn't that good. And there is nothing worse than reading a book and being totally confused as to what is going on.


message 9038: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) It just started as one thing, and then went off at a tangent. I don't like it :(


message 9039: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments I have 58 more pages of my book and I wish I could read a better book with my time! :( blahh..
