If you can squeeze in any more books then we could still get a few points for Valentines challenge part 1

Dragana (diaryofthebookdragon) | 66 comments Ok I started reading Gone Girl which our Valentine team read for Uno this month.

I found a book published on 14th of February. I could read it if no one is reading for that task. I vaguely remember Ozana mentined that she has a book for it...

The Hot One

Ingeborg (redrum) | 410 comments Reading The Unseen, but am on mobile, so I can't link. :) Like you, just started, but the weekend should give me good time to finish it.

Are you watching the skiing world championship?

Doing well, thanks for asking Ingeborg. Just started the book I Let You Go so I don't have any comments on it yet. I have several books I am going to try and get through in the next 10 days since we are taking a trip to New Mexico March 14 - 20 so I know I will only get 1 book done that week (maybe LOL).

The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden

and Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman

have both come out this year and are suppose to be great depending on the genre you like. I plan to read them both, in fact I am on the waiting list at my library for The Bear and the Nightingale and have down loaded Neil Gaiman's book on my Kindle.
