Yesss, that's the only task left for the Chariot!

Well, true, those wheels are somewhat blurry. But you can recognise them as wheels. At least in my opinion.

Anyone else want to comment?? :-) Sometimes several pairs of eyes is good for these kinds of things.

I'll post an update either tonight or tomorrow morning (Europe time!) to let you know which spots are still open and which ones are currently being read for.

Now that we don't have many open spots, it might be a good time for folks to take a look at the places they have reserved on the s/s to make sure they're still planning to read those..."


Good idea!

Lol!
Happy reading, Alex!

I on the contrary am now heading to bed with my books - yes, plural. I'm still unsure which book I really want to dive into tomorrow, so I'm just reading a bit of both now and see which one wants to be my companion tomorrow ;-)

Karen ♐ (kmk1214) | 1866 comments Finished Stepbrother Vamp (Stepmates #2) by C.A. Taylor for another challenge. Not sure if it will fit anything here...maybe bank it?

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

...just noticed it might fit Page Jumping, Heat 2, Leg 8, if that is still open.


message 2476: by Karen ♐ (new)

Karen ♐ (kmk1214) | 1866 comments I'm now going to start reading Cut & Run (Cut & Run, #1) by Abigail Roux which is for Chariot, Prepare Your Driver


message 2477: by Alexandria (new)

Alexandria | 149 comments Finished At the Water's Edge! I loved it! It was slow at first, but once it picked up I couldn't put it down!


message 2478: by Karen ♐ (new)

Karen ♐ (kmk1214) | 1866 comments I've been wanting to read that book for a while now, Alex. So glad you loved it.

Maya (ferafaces) | 282 comments Hey guys! Just me, one of your local friendly Dholes, popping in to say hello and that you guys are doing PHENOMENALLY so far! Keep up the amazing work. <3


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Are any of the remaining spots on Page Jumping available?

Finished my Book into Distance book. Starting my last coaching book. I'm currently reading Magic Bites, it can be a banked book unless it fits somewhere.


message 2483: by Karen ♐ (new)

Karen ♐ (kmk1214) | 1866 comments I thought there was one spot open and the book I finished earlier today would fit. But I can bank mine if you have one, Tamika.


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments No it's some empty spots in Heat 2. I'll let the captains figure it out.

If yours fit it's fine. I was just asking.

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Hey peeps - I'm at a lacrosse tournament this weekend watching my daughter okay. I don't have my laptop but I think I can check the sheets on the Google app. Hang on.

message 2486: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments I see two blank spots in the second heat. Both are for 151-200 pgs...


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Thanks KT!!!

I have 2 coaching spots that I was planning on reading next week but if somebody wants to take them, feel free to.

Also, Karen and LaurLa, you signed up for quite a few books that haven't been read yet. Since mods are still discussing whether bonus books may potentially be started early, and our speedier readers are nearing the end of possibilities, would you be alright with giving up one or the other spot in case it is needed?

Also reading one for chariot


message 2499: by Eldarwen (new)

Eldarwen | 13759 comments Mod
Let's go with your chariot one for now and then see what's still available once you're done with that one, okay?

Since there's only 2 free spots available now, I'd rather people read their claimed books first and then we'll see.


message 2500: by K~Terror (new)
