I agree with Bunnita. I think a lot of people wanted science fiction and instead it was more romance. But the sciency stuff was cool, even if it wasn't explained in great detail. I really enjoyed it, even though I'm not a huge romance person.
Nearly through my second book! How is everyone's reading going?
I just posted my first and am going to start my second today.:)
I'm finishing up The Great Hunt which is the second Wheel of Time book then I'll start All The Light We Cannot See.
You'll have to let me know what you think of All the Light we Cannot See.
Definitely will. I'm excited to get to it.
Found my next five words.:) How's everyone doing?
I've been in an awful reading slump, I hate it! Im only onto my second book of this month
That's a bummer, Victoria. :( I noticed you seemed to be going much slower than usual.
I'm going to start reading some shorter books when I finish this one, so hopefully I can catch up a bit :)
Good idea, we've had some fast readers this month!
Hopefully your slump ends soon. I noticed the same thing.
We really have had some fast readers this month. I really like all the participation though.
Finished my second book and just started my third. It took me a while to find five words in this, but I managed.:) How's everyone else doing?
Finally finished my second book! Now I need to work out what words I want to choose... :P
That's always the hard part! I need to actually look for words in Calamity...I have seen a couple, so it shouldn't be too hard. But when you have a bunch narrowing it down can be annoying.
Could I use the word restaurants and wished? Sorry if this has been asked before!
I just finished a book but I couldn't find page number anywhere online. It was an ARC (Advance Review Copy). Do any of you know how to figure out the length based on Kindle locations #? If not, that's okay. I'll skip that book for this challenge and move on. :)
Let me ask someone I'm sure will know.:)
If you take the total number of "locations" listed and divide that by 10, it will give you a rough approximation.
Hey Bunnita, I dont think that I will be getting around to reading the sequel to A Thousand Pieces of You for a while. I have to get it from the library. So if you want to read it, you don't have to wait for me. But thanks for willing to!
Need to finish up All the Light We Cannot See, then get to my last book (probably) of the month! It's almost time to see what Brandon Mull has to offer me with Fablehaven. It was really cool to meet him, so I'm hoping I love it.
Okay, so I found out how to do the location to page conversion--obviously for future. Courtney was right that diving by ten usually gets the number of pages, but a more accurate way is to see how many numbers are between each page turn. That is, if one page is at location 205 and the next is at 220, you know there were 15 locations in between. Then, you divide the total number of locations by 15.
That's interesting, Jackie. I've never heard that before, but it's good to know. I wish they just had page numbers.
Yeah, the person I asked said that's the most accurate way.
Remember to post any and all reviews by the end of February.

I went into it knowing that this is a ya novel. So I knew there was going to a romance in there somewhere. And I wasn't looking for a science book. The basic most-everyone-has-heard-of-these-theories was good enough for me.
