The Phantom Menace
Nikk, do you want us to post read books here or will there be a separate thread for posting read books?
I am thinking a separate thread at this stage to ensure I don't missing any. I will pop the link at the beginning of this thread once its organised

Welcome karla! Glad you made it :-)
Hi everybody,I'm Poongothai and I live in Chennai, India. I have 2 sons aged 4 and 1. As a typical Indian joint family, I live with my husband, and in-laws. I'm a Civil Engineer by profession and work as a researcher in a construction firm. We had an audit last week and it was crazy here.
My other hobbies are reading, crocheting and drawing. I mainly ready romance, but also open to other genres.
My shelf - tower-teams
Is there something wrong with the links to our tower team shelves above? I can't access my shelf from this page. It keeps coming up with a message that the page isn't found. I refreshed the page, re-signed in and nothing works.

Nikk I have a question. I have a book I started reading a year ago and has been on my currently reading for ages and haven't made progress. If I start from the beginning and read it, will it be counted? I haven't hit even the 1/4 mark yet.
I was just reading the answer to this question earlier this morning so I can actually answer :-)The answer is yes you can as long as you start from the first page again. In the mean time, pop it back into want to read to ensure the start and finish dates when you read don't confuse the spreadsheet and then start it once TT officially starts
A few hours before May 4 and I'm trying really hard not to start another book yet but my hands are doing that grabby thing right now. Oh dear!
I know what you mean Mint though I have the opposite problem. I am frantically trying to finish 3 books for other challenges so I can start reading for TTV as soon as it starts or close too
Count down to start of Tower Teams V About 6 3/4 hours till the start of Tower Teams V. What is everyone planning on reading first. for me at this stage, I think it will
as it arrived this afternoon. My copy of
arrived yesterday and I couldn't wait so I started it already *hangs head* Sorry. That being said I am loving it already plus I need to finish it for shelf pursuit tomorrow 😀
Wooh! 5 hours and then some more to go!!! I'm looking forward on reading The Circle as a startoff. I'm really excited!
I think i will probably read either
,
or
. I'm not sure which one I will read first but I'll probably focus on King's Cage (#3) first.
I'm going to read The Circle and participate in the BOM discussion for it.
Just started Angels & Demons for TTV. Also squeezed in a shorter humor book that I picked up at the book sale this morning.
Yay! Tower teams has now started. I have asked for a books read thread to be created. So when that's done I will post the link to the thread in msg 2 or 3 at the beginning of this thread along with all other relevant information. Being a Sydney time zone it's 5 am and I am just getting out of bed to get ready for work so bear with me as I won't be able to pop the relevant links to threads spreadsheets till I get to work in a few hours (I have a long commute). However once I get on the train I will check the thread to answer any questions you might have.
In the mean time have fun and happy reading! 😀

I am only up to book 2 of the remnant chronicles though it's not one of my favourite series so I may not get to book 2 for a while. What did you think of book 2?
Posted first book in the book read thread. Also have a request to the librarians to add the page count for it 276 pages.
Phantom Menace Book Reads Thread Hey guys,
The books read thread is up(see link above) and I will post a link to it up in message 6 to make it easy to find as well. Please take note of the completion post example I included at the top of the completion thread post as this will just make my life easier in ensuring our spreadsheet is up to date and correct and we are getting all the points we are entitled to :-)

Kelsi wrote: "Woohoo! So excited this has started now :) I'm working on first." Yay! I loved that book. I read it earlier this year. I have book 2 and 3 sitting on top of my book shelf waiting for me to get back to them. I also adore the covers on all three
It feels weird not having editing access to spreadsheets Nikk ;)Happy reading everyone!
Nikk wrote: "Marybeth wrote: "I think i will probably read either , or . I'm not sure whi..."Nikk, I thought the second book was pretty good but it did take me a little while to read. I've only read a couple of chapters of The beauty of darkness but it does seem very good so far. I will probably start reading it over the weekend. :)
Hi,Sorry I haven't been around lately. I'm currently reading
as my first book for this challenge.Happy reading and have a great weekend, everyone!
Yay - it's finally started!Thank you everyone for your congrats :)
Just finished my last pre-challenge book and am reading
and
now.Kathleen - I have been reading the Megan Whalen Turner series for the first time as I was hearing so much hype about her new release - they are so good! Lucky I don't have to wait too long for the newest instalment :)
@Elise: Lucky you! I waited eons for this release!! It's one of my all time favorites!
Finished my last pre challenge book and yes
was an awesome read!Starting on
tomorrow (or later today since its nearly 1 am ) then
next
Nikk, Do you want us to do separate posts for each book read or do you want it to be a tracker where we keep editing out post to add books?

@Marybeth, may I ask you please to pop a read date on
as currently its showing as not set so its not being pulled on the spreadsheet.Thanks :-)

Nikk, I didn't realize it this morning when i finished it but I did start Gone Too Far before the challenge started. I usually pay more attention to that but I didn't this morning.
Tomorrow I will probably start either
or
and should be able to finish them tomorrow night or Monday afternoon. :)
no probs Marybeth. Thanks for the update :-)I haven't gotten much reading done today as I have been out with my dad and my daughter. Might try get some now whilst my daughter has a rest :-)
Finally got my first read
on the board and now starting on
Today is a slow read day for me but I will probably get one done. just not sure which I have a Few Challenge books that need to be read for other challenges but have until Friday to worry about the one with the closest deadline.
I should have another book finished tonight. I finished a book yesterday that was started before TTV, so it didn't count. Hopefully I can get at least one a day this week.
I think I have caught up with all of the books that I have started before TTV so I should be able to start my library books this week. I will be traveling later in the week so I should be able to read
,
,
and
. :)
Kelsi, may I get you to set a reading date on the lemony snicket book you posted as competed earlier. It's currently no showing as set.I think there has been an error with this in general on goodreads lately
Yes we were having problems with it during uno too. It's really annoying...I will fix it now.
Yeah I nearly had a heart attack today when 6 books disappeared from my 2017 goodreads challenge. I had to go through all my reads so far this year to reset the finish date on the ones that had disappeared. Luckily I have a spreadsheet with all my reads and challenges
Thanks Kelsi btw 😛

No problem :)
No problem :)
Finished my first book for TT. I was scouring my shelves what to read next and I guess it's high time to bring out the chunkster that is
and find out how they got their happy ever afters.I'll be jumping on the
bandwagon and finish the series too. I hope Maas didn't introduce a new love interest in her last book.
