message 1851: by Skandia (new)

Skandia (sfgirl) | 1724 comments Do you think Never Never Part Two (Never Never, #2) by Colleen Hoover and Never Never Part Three (Never Never, #3) by Colleen Hoover will work with blue smoke on cover?

~~~N~~~ (chocolate-cannibal-bunnies) | 616 comments Hey. How's everyone's day going?

I don't see the books I've reread on the spreadsheet..? Also, here's another one. Will this count since it's been read between events?

Ashley i'm looking for jobs in finance."


You must be good with numbers! That's admirable. Math always made me sleepy.


kat (wanderfulbooks) (wanderfulbooks) | 2329 comments @Karishma: Best of luck! I tried to Whatsapp you but couldn't find you.

@Skandia: Works for me, let's wait for Ash and Nikk's thoughts.

@Noa: I will look it up. :) I'm trying (trying being the operative word) to tinker our spreadsheet and put up a book bank to make it easier for Ashley in picking out books for our words.

My weekend is pretty much okay. Might go out with the sister tonight and go dress hunting for a wedding. I do love weddings.

Skandia (sfgirl) | 1724 comments @Kat: and I love dress hunting :) Leave us a picture when you find your dress!


message 1857: by ~~~N~~~ (new)

~~~N~~~ (chocolate-cannibal-bunnies) | 616 comments Have fun, Kat! I barely go to any weddings, but I love them as well :3 Best of luck to the couple


kat (wanderfulbooks) (wanderfulbooks) | 2329 comments Skandia, if we were neighbors, I'd let you pick my dress. I'm not much on dress hunting because it's always so hard to decide what to get! I'll try to get you all a pic.

Noa, well... when you get my age (the marrying range), be sure to have all your dresses ready. And your wallet too for both gifts and your wardrobe!


Nikki the Sapphired Book Dragon AKA NixieNut  (sapphireddragon) | 1397 comments I just started a buddy read for The Problem with Forever and it's pretty good so far so i think we will be done with the buddy read pretty quickly. For current word this would work for M for main character Mallory or R for Rider Stark or could save it as a P

I am also starting Darkfever for another challenge but it should work for M on our current word for both main character and author as well as having something blue on the cover

After these two are down, I may not get much more reading done this week as we have a house inspection next saturday so most of my spare time this week will be used cleaning/tidying as still being sick and with a four year old bringing out 2 more things for every one thing I put away :-P means its slow going getting out=r house up to spec

After next saturday I will be back on board and raring to go as I have a few review books for August as well as some awesome bookmail/ pre-orders that have arrived to read so am hoping to get a lot more reading done :-)

Which tab of the spreadsheet do you mean? The Noa Gale one?

How far apart was your re-read of it?

I kind of think no...I looked at this but it doesn't really feel like an item? More like a background

I looked at a couple of tabs. Okay, I forgot about the six months between reads rule for [book:Change of Heart|7129023], so it doesn't count. But, the three Captive Prince books and Out of the Blues should all work.


message 1866: by Ashley (new)

Ashley | 1439 comments I'll check again when I'm back Noa - might just be taking time to refresh.

Preferably "O" books with a blue item Nikk ;)

On the bright side I have four NBRCBOM ready for when the start time commences :D

Got it - you haven't set new dates for your re-reads so they won't enter. What I do with re-reads is set different editions otherwise they only show once. I think if you change the edition of your first read to something else then your re-read to the actual edition read with fresh dates then it will feed into the spreadsheet :)

Feel free to PM me if you want to nut it out in more detail

Ange (bentleyrise) | 484 comments Finished An Occurrence in Crazy Bear Valley which will fit O, There are a ton of main characters which I can list if you need me too but considering you need Os ...

message 1871: by Viji (new)

Viji | 389 comments Does all books for all the letters of the word given to us need to have a blue object on the cover? Or we could read any book which would fit the letters given to us. Could anyone help me please? Thanks.

I think I fixed it. Can you tell me if they're showing now? I set all the read dates to the 20th, since I read them around then. And thank you for the help ^.^


message 1875: by ~~~N~~~ (new)

~~~N~~~ (chocolate-cannibal-bunnies) | 616 comments I have a bunch of books that work for NBRCBOM (with blue items as well) and it seems like we have it all pretty much covered. If there's anything particular that comes up, I'll try and read for it.

~~~N~~~ (chocolate-cannibal-bunnies) | 616 comments I need to finish the two books I was reading before (which do fit for things, but don't have blue items).

I'm unsure about this book for NBRCBOM: Ollie Always by John Wiltshire . Does the blue water count as a thing?


kat (wanderfulbooks) (wanderfulbooks) | 2329 comments There's an ongoing poll about who has the best looking chariot.

No - water & sky don't count as items


kat (wanderfulbooks) (wanderfulbooks) | 2329 comments I have a busy month ahead of me and might not be as active as before, will be reading less too but I will be reading! I'm almost finished with Book of a Thousand Days by Shannon Hale works for B and color task (blue dress). Most boring book ever but good thing I bought it for about a $1.
