Completed my first book for the challenge, first book in a new series. We Are Toten HerzenIf you like vampires then check it out.
Nice one, just realised I can do the author using more than one name, read a Dr Seuss book yesterday, he also wrote under Theo Le Stigg.
Always here to help you learn new stuff, no matter how un-useful it may be.
Well good luck to you guys. I'll read through the list and even if I do think this one is a bit easier (at least on the first look) I'll pass it. Need to work through my shelf instead lol But I'll be your cheerleader or your mean boot camp coach
Is that you finished with the series? Surprised you kept going to the end. Very tough.
Finished A Brief History of Seven Killings to fill in Jamaica in round the world and in the 2016 challenge a world event.Awful book.
Read Ellie the Homesick Puppy published in 2010 for the read your age challenge and also fits nicely in the main challenge as a book about an animal.
24th book from the challenge done. A book about books, a real tough slot to fill but managed it Treasured Island: A Book Lover's Tour of Britain
readThe Wheels of Samsara based in India and also fits into the 2016 challenge as an Identity (different religion)
I've read The Adventures of Pinnochio which fits the followingAround the world = Italy
Disney challenge
Gilmore challenge
And 2016 challenge = classic under 200 pages.
Yay!
Does the cat go outside? Has it got a scratching post?
In a bad mood now, thought the second harry potter book was part of the Gilmore challenge but its books 1 and 4 and not 1 and 2. grrrrr, now I've gotta read more :(It does fit in for 1998 in the read your age challenge so not all is lost.
Finished The Little Prince fills the top 100 fantasy spot. Used this list.https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/3...
12th country visited on the 80 days around the world challenge. The Way a River Went: Following the Volga Through the Heart of Russia means Russia has been done.
Cheated slightly with "short story by a well known author" read Night Shift which is a collection of short stories by Stephen King. You think it fits?
Just read The Usborne Illustrated Robin Hood so that's Robin Hood ticked off the Disney challenge, yay!
Read Journey Without MapsCovers the book starting with my initial and also Liberia for the round the world challenge, nice one to cross off. :)
what list did you use for the summer/beach reading?
No. 50 done, book originally written in a different language. Le Rapport Pileckican't believe I can't include it in the round the world challenge but already got a book for Poland.
not got too many left, just read Infinite Jest to fill the book by an author you should have read by now.
Been quiet on the challenges recently, all books for the round the world challenge have been in UK or USA, but just finished Helix: Episode 4 - Anomaly which spent some time based in Belarus.
Just finished Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban so that is book for 1999 and one embarrassed to read in public done. Next harry book and I'll be able to cross off another Gilmore book. wooo
only 6 books left to complete the 2016 challenge, added Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil: A Savannah Story as the book for beach read. got it from this list...https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/4...
Nearly completed this challenge, just one more book to go. :-)
