Making a wild guess here, but could it be that you are an audio book fan? :D

Maddy | 2127 comments Hey! A question for people who have already read BOM books.
So this one is from June 2 to June 8.
Buuuuut... It is going real slow... I have been reading it all day and got only 200 pages from 1000...
So what happens if I do not finish it until tomorrow?
Technically, the end date is June 30, but the chapters are planned from 2 to 8.


❤Stephanie ღ♥ღMrs Daryl Dixonღ♥ღ | 2613 comments You can read at your own pace, you don't have to read the chapters on those days they just have them a guide for the DQ's to be put out. If the end date in 30th June then that is the time it has to be read by.

As I work anything from 13 to 17 hour days I don't get much time for paper books but a large part of my day I can listen to audio so yes I'm a huge fan as I really missed reading when I took this job on now most of the day I'm living in a world of fiction while working :) I get about 8 to 10 hours reading time while driving and sorting mail.

Seen as you are a big audio book fan, may I ask where you get them ? Do you use a specific app or something ? :)

Mostly Audible or there are some available at libraries to download but in Australia they are very limited.


message 527: by Gillian (last edited Jun 07, 2017 01:20PM) (new)

Gillian Murrell | 497 comments It can be very frustrating if you are not from the US as even though I have a .com and a .com.au account with audible a lot of books are not available here. Incase you are wondering why I have 2 different accounts the .com one does not have all the Australian books and the .com.au does not have anywhere near as many as I can get on the .com account. Until recently I was able to get all the books on .com but they now block me from those unavailable for release in Australia. I have a VPN but I guess my payment method gives away where I live :(

❤Stephanie ღ♥ღMrs Daryl Dixonღ♥ღ | 2613 comments The mods have said that the replacement players can add all books read since the start of the challenge, which was the 4th May, but they have to have started them after the challenge started not before.

So Michelle and Sarah-Jane if you could add all the books read from then on to your shelf that would be great, and can you also post the completed books here, thanks.

Hey!
It was a very interesting read. As I said, it was a bit slow to read, I absolutely hated all the characters, but it was a very good writing style and POV. The beauty of this book is exactly in the deranged POV and how it makes you question everything . It is quite weird how it makes you sympathize with the villain and totally hate the supposed good guys. So I kinda liked the idea behind it, but some things could have been explained better. Then it would have been a 5 star read, not 4 star read.
