message 4651: by Alexandria (new)

Alexandria | 149 comments So I got bored with The Nightingale and I picked up Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli I literally could not put it down! So I finished a book at least! Hopefully I have enough time to add it and bank it here before my dinner date arrives! If not I'll do it right after. Hope everyone is having a fantastic Friday! XD

Thanks, ST. I'm really tired of being sick...lol

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Alright - I'm back from errands!

We haven't heard anything from LaurLa. RL can be so unpredictable so I may go ahead and use the back up and we can save her book for the next grid.


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Woo hoo!!

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments There are a lot of "Title Contains..." cards!

A few of these squares we've seen before but I'm not complaining!

We'll see how many we have in the bank to use...


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Much better.

I'll take skeleton for the Appreciate.
The werewolf works for Dog Days. It's about werewolf shifters


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Yes, check bank first then I'll work from there.


message 4665: by Snowtulip (new)

Snowtulip | 4679 comments I'll decide after you use the banked books...I'm hoping to read some longer books for extra points :)

I was thinking of that as well


message 4667: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Me too! I saw there was a 600+ page book for the 2015 pub but I didn't want to use it since we'd already gotten the bonus. LOL!


message 4668: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments I am happy to say we can use Jessica's "Brain on Fire" for the Biography square. :D


message 4669: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments We can use LaurLa's 'In Death' book for the crime genre.

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments K~Terror wrote: "We can use LaurLa's 'In Death' book for the crime genre."

SCRATCH THAT! LaurLa's can be used for title contains "Death"
and then I'm using Cold Cold Heart by Tami Hoag for MPG Crime


message 4671: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Used Karen's Bounty (Colorado Mountain, #7) by Kristen Ashley for MPG Contemporary spot.

And that is all that I saw right off... Tell me if you guys see anything else we can use!


message 4672: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments So Tamika, you want to use Dog Days (Dog Days, #1) by John Levitt for werewolves?


message 4673: by Snowtulip (new)

Snowtulip | 4679 comments I can take the brain... Team of Rivals The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin ...dissects the mind of Abe Lincoln...think that will work?


message 4674: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments I think we can use the Rizzoli & Isles books for the skeleton couldn't we? Because of all the autopsies?


message 4675: by Snowtulip (new)

Snowtulip | 4679 comments I'm almost done with The Vegetarian by Han Kang ...it could be used for either strawberry or corn since that's what vegetarians eat?


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Umm not that one. Dog Days by T.A. Moore


message 4677: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Was that the book you were saying with Dog Days, T?

That sounds good!

Yep, I think that would work for sure. I'm thinking 'corn' would be harder to find than strawberry, so how about there?

Tamika, Tamika, Tamika - Is your skeleton book called Appreciate, or is it The Apprentice?

Snowtulip | 4679 comments K~Terror wrote: "Your Abe Lincoln book is over 900 pages ST! YIKES! I hope it's good!"

Me too, I've heard good things...but it will probably be the longest non-fiction I'll have ever read...that's a lot of pages to keep my attention!

Privileges of blogging! On one hand I love it, and on the other I get tired of ARCS.

LOL

No worries, I'm just formatting post for the blog ahead of time!

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments That's the ugliest werewolf... I keep thinking it's an ape.


message 4694: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments I'm finishing up The Bourbon Kings (The Bourbon Kings, #1) by J.R. Ward tonight and one part of this story is about a big derby party where they are renting tents. There's a mishap with the tents so it's not just mentioned in the book - but it's a part of the story. I'm thinking that would work for the circus tent picture. Yes?

It looks really misshapen.

Good! We have 5 marked off then already. We won't actually add them into the official s/s until we decide for sure what pattern we'll be doing and request whatever bonus E requests..

message 4699: by VNerdbooks (new)

VNerdbooks (v_nerdbooks) | 5108 comments Would Rizzoli count for the Z square ?


message 4700: by VNerdbooks (new)

VNerdbooks (v_nerdbooks) | 5108 comments I'll take Touch, I have Touch by Claire North that I've had on audio for ages.

Would a BBQ and lots of bottles of booze count for Bottles ?? If so I'll take that too
