Karsyn  (imzadi) Sorry I didn't get mine up earlier, not much today again. This book is not what I thought it would be, so it isn't grabbing my attention, but it's not as awful as I thought it could be once it got weird. I need to just get it finished up and move on to something good. At least Allegiant comes out Tues. :)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) read a thon ends tomorrow but final updates aren't due until the 21st. But they're due by 3am my time so I will be submitting our final update on the 20th. So feel free to read up until the last minute if you have time. Every page will help. I can read up until 11 am tomorrow morning so I will have an audiobook going all morning while I clean my house and go to the gym. I'll give everyone a chance to do a last check-in before I do our final submission.

ilovebakedgoods (Teresa) (ilovebakedgoods) | 362 comments I only got to read 20 pages of a book I started today. I'll add to spreadsheet. I don't think I'll be able to update it again before the cut-off tomorrow because I have too many things to do that require me not logging into the computer in the morning.

Well at least I think I made my count - barely.


ilovebakedgoods (Teresa) (ilovebakedgoods) | 362 comments I lied... I woke up early and was able to read and post this before the cut-off! I read another 40 pages. Not much but at least I'm over my personal goal. I'm adding to spreadsheet.

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) OK so right now we are at 19948 pages. Holding off on our final update because Vicky said she might get some more in this morning. No biggy if she didn't but don't want to submit too early and miss any.


message 146: by Vicky (new)

Vicky (librovert) I got another 8 pages in for Curse of the Blue Tattoo, lol.

That should put me at 1729 total.


message 147: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) I'll turn our final update in very soon. Gotta get dinner in the oven and might take dog for a super short walk first.


message 148: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) I was hoping for one last update from Marianne. Debating if I should wait a bit. I'll be up for another 2 hrs so maybe I'll wait a smidge more just in case. But I have to turn it in tonight. It's due by 3am my time and I am not going to be awake at that time.


message 149: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) I am really tired so I am just doing our final update now. I'm sorry if we ended up missing some pages but I'm kind of thinking everyone who has anything to report has done it by now.
