message 251: by Andrea (new)

Andrea (deja05) | 732 comments Hi! Sorry I've been MIA for a while. Things got busy at work and my reading slowed down. I did finish a couple of short books recently and I've added them now. I'm reading Traitor's Blade (Greatcoats, #1) by Sebastien de Castell now. I was picked to write DQs for this book so that'll be some extra points too.

Marybeth (narutofan14) | 262 comments Checking in. I had a good reading week this week and ended up finishing quite a few books that I had been reading for a while. For this week I am planning on finishing Alex, Approximately by Jenn Bennett , Daughter of the Pirate King (Daughter of the Pirate King, #1) by Tricia Levenseller , Crooked Kingdom (Six of Crows, #2) by Leigh Bardugo The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden and Lord of Shadows (The Dark Artifices, #2) by Cassandra Clare . I'm hoping to also read a couple more books along with these as well.
I also went ahead and put a hold on the audio book for The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware although I am not sure when I will get it. :)

I see. Thanks for the enlightenment, Karla. It was a great book to read.


kat (wanderfulbooks) (wanderfulbooks) | 2329 comments Can we still get points for Ash and Quill discussion? When is the deadline?


Nikki the Sapphired Book Dragon AKA NixieNut  (sapphireddragon) | 1397 comments We are halfway through discussion for ash and quill so yes you can deadline is 29th July when I believe ttv might be close to ending

Marybeth (narutofan14) | 262 comments Just checking in.
Last week I finished Alex, Approximately, Daughter of the Pirate King and Crooked Kingdom. The weekend was pretty busy as I was shopping for my dorm that I will be staying at for the semester so I didn't read that much but this week I plan on finishing The Rose Society (The Young Elites, #2) by Marie Lu , The Eternity Cure (Blood of Eden, #2) by Julie Kagawa , The Naturals (The Naturals, #1) by Jennifer Lynn Barnes , November 9 by Colleen Hoover and possibly The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden . :)

Amy the book-bat (batkisses) | 914 comments I have a stack of books to finish by the end of the month. Hopefully I can add a lot of points for the team.

Currently listening to Still Life and reading Murder Games

Hoping to get to Princess in Love, The Romanov Sisters: The Lost Lives of the Daughters of Nicholas and Alexandra, and Desert Gold this week to finish off other challenges :-)


kat (wanderfulbooks) (wanderfulbooks) | 2329 comments I'm officially on vacation! I shall try to read as much as I can. Oh, and Wildfire is out.

I finished Ink and Bone as I was thinking I could marathon read til the 3rd book for additional BOM points. It didn't interest me enough though so I'm skipping it. I did read all the other 3 and loved Traitor's Blade the most. Great thing I have the next books on hand. Best spur of the moment buy from Goldsboro!


Nikki the Sapphired Book Dragon AKA NixieNut  (sapphireddragon) | 1397 comments So we have approximately 16 hours till the end of Tower Teams V!

Count Down Here

How has everyone found this challenge?

Some house keeping for the ned of the challenge, Can everyone please go through and check that everything they have started and finsihed since thebeginning of May has been placed on your tower teams shelf and you have posted you completions of our books read thread.

If you have read a BOM and participated in the discussion questions, please check the spreadsheet in the BOM tab to make sure you have been added and had your points credited. let me know if I am missing something.

If you have read any of the Great library series ( Ink and Bone, Paper and Fire or Ash and Quill) by Rachel Caine, post a review and let me know the link as we can get points for this also

With 16 hours left, that's still a lot of reading time so I am planning to finish The Woman in Cabin 10 then write my review for Ash and Quill. If I have time I am also hoping to squeeze in Flame in the Mist and answer some BOM questions.

What are you reading to finish out Tower Teams?

Amy the book-bat (batkisses) | 914 comments I'm hoping to finish Murder Games. If I have time, I'll try to squeeze in another book


message 262: by [deleted user] (new)

Wow I didn't realize this was over already...I feel like my participation was lower than I was hoping because life has been pretty busy for me lately. I didn't cross off any of the big books I was hoping to get to.

I won't be able to finish anything else up in the next few hours. Thanks for a fun challenge everyone!


kat (wanderfulbooks) (wanderfulbooks) | 2329 comments Oh! I read Ink and Bone but haven't written a review because I thought only Ash and Quill discussion gets points. I'll get on with the review and post it later.

After Knight's Shadow I'll try if I can finish one more book. Or maybe stay up late and finish 2?

Marybeth (narutofan14) | 262 comments I was able to finish Steelheart this afternoon and am currently working on The Woman in Cabin 10 although I am not sure if I will be able to finish it today or not. I'm only on chapter 14 on the audio book so i think I still have quite a few more chapters to listen to.

Thank you everyone for the fun challenge! :)
