Hi all! I'm really excited to be doing another challenge with this Goodreads group... it's been a little while since I participated.

I'm trying really hard not to make a strict TBR for this month since this is a read whatever you want challenge. I kinda just want to pick up books as I go :)

That being said, I am definitely trying to get to ATATN this month and squeeze in a few mysteries I just picked up!

[Dannii]

Hi :) I love your username!

I am a mess unless I have a structured monthly tbr and end up just reading the first few pages of about 50 different books. Haha!

[Dr. Andy]

Hi Jordan! I really want to read ATATN but I don't know if I'll be able to fit it in this month with school. I usually plan a couple BRs and then jump in on some and then grab some books that just look look interesting from the library to read by myself. This will be the first time I'm doing a challenge during the school year so it's a little nerve wracking O.o

Aww, yay! Awesome :D

[Dr. Andy]

You guys are reading so fast! I didn't even have time to start my first one because of school :( But 3-day weekend!!

[Lily]

School takes away a lot of my time for reading too. :(

[Lexi]

I'm hoping to finish this weekend, but i'll be pretty busy. And then after that i'm planning to read .

[Dr. Andy]

That's for sure!! *sigh*

[Dr. Andy]

I'm doing the Fruits Basket series after Exit, Pursued By a Bear. I might finish all of those this weekend, but I'm not certain how many of the manga I'll get through. If EoS shows up, I'm stopping everything for that!

[Alyson]

Sorry I'm late! I've had a ton of school work! I'm currently reading the Lucy Variations

[Dr. Andy]

I understand a ton of school work! Just finished my molecular bio homework so I can read my fun book now :)

[Lily]

I actually just dropped my Philosophy book and picked up Red Queen. Hahaha!

[Dr. Andy]

Sounds like a good trade haha! I enjoyed Red Queen though I liked the sequel more.

[Lily]

I ned to look for a copy of Glass Sword soon.

Btw, I remind everyone to post the EDITION WITH THE MOST PAGES. I saw someone found a 600 page edition of the 300 page book she read.

[Dr. Andy]

I have about 100 pages left in so I'll definitely finish it tonight and I'll post my review tomorrow morning most likely!

[Dannii]

I have had a few days of no reading (argh, slump!!) but I went to a book fair yesterday, picked up some awesome new books and am back in the reading mode. I'm hoping to have two books finished by this evening (although one is super short) and another by tomorrow night... hopefully.

Also, Red Queen is always a good trade!

[Dr. Andy]

Sounds good Dannii! I wish I went to a book fair, those are always awesome! I'm going to write my review for Exit, Pursued by a bear now :)

[CallMeSensei]

My weekend read was A Torch Against The Night by Sabaa Tahir. I definitely recommend! It was such a wild ride. So much happened!

I'm also really excited because she's coming to Raleigh on Tuesday & I'll get my books signed :)

Not sure what I'll pick up next. I have a few ARCs I should definitely get to soon!

[Dr. Andy]

I really want to get to that one but I don't know if my local library has it! :O Plus I'm getting EoS on Tuesday so I'll be swamped with reading pretty soon. I made it through 4 of the Fruits Basket novels so far. :)

[CallMeSensei]

Oh, I really love that anime! I hope you're enjoying the manga :)

[Dr. Andy]

Yes! It's a reread for me. I read this series in high school and watched the anime and absolutely fell in love with it <3

[Victoria]

I'm reading at the moment, and I'm hoping to join some buddy reads after that. I'm reading it for school, so I'm a little slow, but I should speed up once I'm on to my next book!

How's the book going for you? I've had my eye on it for a while now, but I haven't really picked it up somehow.

[Victoria]

Lian, it's a re-read for me, and I'm loving it just as much the second time around. I honestly couldn't put it down the first time, and THE PLOT TWIST!

[CallMeSensei]

It's really great! I never saw the plot twist coming. & it's one of those books where you don't like either of the main characters and their lives are train wrecks but you want to see what happens anyways.

[Dr. Andy]

EoS is in my town!! I'm so excited guys!!!

[Victoria]

Yeah, I care a weird amount considering how much I hate them!!
Andrea, eep, that's so exciting!!! :D

[Dannii]

EoS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dr. Andy]

I'm only 100 pages in to EoS but holy crap I love it so much already! I've missed this world sooooo much <3 Dannii I hope you have fun on a serious team we'll miss you on this one- feel free to come back and talk to us here!

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Hi guys, I'm removing Dannii from your team as she's switching to serious, but I'm then adding Danii as she's switching from medium to fun ☺

[Dr. Andy]

Wonderful! Welcome Danii!!

[Danii]

[Dannii]

[Dr. Andy]
