Nicole B | 185 comments The Nine Worlds in Norse Mythology Challenge looks interesting :) Here are where my books fit so far

Asgard (1/5)- Read a book with plenty of sky on the cover - The Giver (The Giver Quartet, #1) by Lois Lowry

Midgard (1/5) - Book tagged as LGBT Unspeakable (?) I think its tagged as it anyway

Niflheim (1/5) - Read book set in cold place Lying and Kissing, mostly set in Russia in the winter.

Flying home again this evening so will hopefully finish the 2 books I've got on the go at the moment. For now it's back to the boring task of packing

Once I'm back I'll look at the Norse Mythology worlds. Think what I've read should fit some of the categories from a brief flick through.


message 411: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments Finished Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter (thank goodness) and posted in the thread.

I think it should fill "Goal: - Read a book shelved (listed on the first page of the "top shelves" of the book) as next-up - plurals and minor spelling variations are acceptable "

- Read a book with a briefcase on the cover

- Read a book where someone “comes out of the closet”


message 416: by Stacie (new)

Stacie (thesebooksaremyfriends) I feel like we should use a boon for one of the first two goals but that's just my opinion.


message 417: by Tina (new)

Tina | 97 comments I'm currently reading White Horse, where the world is about to end. But I don't know if everything will turn around toward the end... But perhaps that will work anyway for that goal?

I did plan to suggest end of the world one since nobody so far mentioned they have book that fits :)


message 427: by Stacie (new)

Stacie (thesebooksaremyfriends) So I don't know if this counts but in Raw, the two MCs have a relationship that they first keep from their friends and then eventually they "come out" to everyone. Also the male MC comes out as a (view spoiler) using a plastics business as a front.

I just read it again. No they don't, but Dorian has been having a crush on Caius (one of the MCs), since forever, which he admits to Jasper. Does that count as coming out?

RebeccaS that sounds v weird

Finding Pretty Girls v disturbing. I want to know what happens but there's a limit to how much of it I can read at a time.

Added it to books read.

Hiii!!

Pretty Girls didn't get any less disturbing - definitely not one for squeamish readers. Not sure I'll read other books by Karin Slaughter as I found parts too gratuitous.

Made it home in one piece and even had the luxury of 3 seats to lie down on for the trip home. Midweek overnight flights are pretty empty.

Also finished Catilina's Riddle which contains 'aggregate'!!!


message 438: by [deleted user] (new)

Yayy!!!! The dreaded aggregate is done with! Awesome, Sophie.

Complete coincidence - finished it and thought I'd just check on the off chance. One of the great advantages of ebooks is definitely the quick search at the end


message 440: by Stacie (new)

Stacie (thesebooksaremyfriends) New goal:

Read a book where a character is a succubus/incubus


message 441: by Stacie (new)

Stacie (thesebooksaremyfriends) Do we get to use Pretty Girls 3 times?

Well 3 different people read it so yes.

Great :)
*sigh* I guess I now have to start paying attention to things in aggregate book :P
Or start something else entirely *rubs hands in glee* :D

No need :)
I started rereading Angels & Demons and since it's longish, I'll just read something else in between :) Now I don't have to hurry with it, so thank you

I'll go see if someone is hiding in closet to push him out :P


message 446: by ❀Tea❀ (new)

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9625 comments No, wait! Anita's book has coming out

*goes to update spreadsheet*

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9625 comments NEW GOAL

Read a book that was originally published between 1951 and 1999

I think one of mine could work
*goes back to check*

Using The Voyage of the Dawn Treader



Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter Y

Used Luck in the Shadows
