Connie wrote: "Completed The Fault in Our Stars by John Green 2/16/2014. This is contemporary fiction for string ? maybe 11??
Sarah is getting back to me on this."

Lynn, I think Sarah decided to count this as contemporary because E :) wants to read the YA for this string. On the GR recommendation list it appears as contemporary and YA.

[Lynn]

All above noted.

BINGO indeed Marnie! String Two now completed.

[Lynn]

Completed my dystopia book and recorded above.

[Tasha]

Finished The Faithful Spy for a BINGO (!!) on String 1. Woot!

^^^That was a suspense/thriller. I know there was some question about whether all those reading suspense/thriller would be counting so let me know of this one works. :)

[Rusalka, Moderator]

Completed The Secret Life of Bees for
String 7:
- Chick Lit - Rusalka

Date... welllll... 18/2/14 for me but it was the 17th for most of you. Not sure how you want to mark that. I started the Toppler on the Sunday not the Saturday...
Oh shut up Rus, it doesn't matter. 18/2/14

Edit: and now reviewed.

[Lynn]

All above reported, including my completed fantasy read for string 3.

[Sarah]

I think Deedee completed her ChickLit - I think she mentioned it in the other thread - might be worth checking.

[Lynn]

I've just looked at her comments page and I can't see anything to say she's finished a book. She talks about starting her chick-lit and sorting out what other books she can read, but not that she's finished one yet.

Unless I'm missing something?
