Lauren | 247 comments No update for me. Unfortunatly I have too many other things going on in my life right now to read tons of books like I was last round. :(

Laura (apenandzen) OMG Luann, I can't believe you're still winning! I thought you were gonna take it easy this time? You are the Shelf Queen!


message 15: by Kristen (new)

Kristen Harvey 132 shelves
11 books

I'm not doing great. :(


message 16: by Luann (new)

Luann (azbookgal) | 1020 comments Well, Laura, I'm also participating in this OTHER challenge that is pushing me to read. :) And so far the books I'm reading for THAT challenge have still touched shelves - even though I touched ALL the YA shelves right away.

But I also want to put in a plug for picture books! Some of the BEST books out there are picture books! And you NEED to read at least a few of them to touch several of the shelves: childrens-picture-books, picture-book, picturebooks, and picture-books. That's four shelves. And while you are touching those, you will probably touch a few others with those same books - especially among the children's and kid's shelves. It's okay to read a few picture books!

What do you mean? You are way ahead of me!!


message 18: by Kristen (new)

Kristen Harvey For that amount of books.. I guess I just read too many of the same types of books.

Roseann | 66 comments I thought we did updates every week. I will add them here now, let me know if I have to add these to next week also.

I now have a total of 9 books with 164 shelves.
(I read quite a few this week as I am finishing my Spring Challenge and I was sick in bed with the flu)


message 20: by Luann (new)

Luann (azbookgal) | 1020 comments Roseann, we do updates every five days. Give us the total number of books you've read and shelves you've touched since the beginning of the challenge (May 1). So each time your report will include the numbers from the time before and any new books you've read and shelves you've touched since then.


message 21: by Roseann (new)
