[Caitlyn]

I don't have anything for Nourishment.

[Bess]

Yes, got it!! I'm half way through!! Thanks everyone! Hugs!!

[Hannah]

Perfect, Bess!

So do I have Nourishment?

[Bess]

I might be able to loan through Amazon... If that helps with nourishment.

[Hannah]

I have a review book that works for Nourishment!


Amy has veggies in her basket.

Round 5 - Due 7/12

#2 Transportation: Horse/Wagon -
#3 Souvenir: Postcard -
#4 Nourishment: Fruit/Vegetable - Hannah
#5 Sleeping Accommodations - Bess
Bonus: Outdoor Scene - Andrea

Seneca, do you have a book that works for #2 or #3?

[Andrea]

Caitlyn, did you want location or transportation? I had misread that last night and thought you said you had one for only location.

[Caitlyn]

I can do either, whichever one someone else doesn't want is fine with me. :)

[Andrea]

Ladies, keep your eyes open for postcards in the books you're reading. That might be the toughest category this time, so if any book has it, we might want to switch to that category for that one and read a different book for whichever category we switched from.

Unless, of course, someone has a book with a postcard on the cover that they'd like to read for this round.

[Andrea]

Caitlyn, I think either category is open right now. Feel free to pick one and start on it.

[Andrea]

The book I'm finishing today works for the bonus, so I can pick up an extra book if need be. Once it's decided which category Seneca will be going for, I'll see if I have something for the last one that I could squeeze in real quick.

[Caitlyn]

Okay, I'll take Transportation then. I'll be reading

[Els]

Well, I guess that leaves me with postcard... I have no idea where I'll find a book with a postcard on the cover! I'll be leaving in a few days for a backpacking trip, but I'll do my best.

[Els]

Actually, if Caitlyn's doing transportation- I'll do location. But I'll still go look for a postcard.

[Andrea]

Everyone keep your eyes out for a postcard book. Happy reading!

[Caitlyn]

I just checked and has the word postcard in the text of the book twice. If anyone's interested, I would be happy to loan my kindle copy! :)

[Andrea]

Great find, Caitlyn! I've already read that one, so I'll leave it for someone else.

[Hannah]

I've read it, too. I probably have something, but we shall see. I may not have time to read more than one.

[Bess]

I'm reading 2 books...DreamSpell has "postcard" twice in the text too...do you want me to switch?

[Andrea]

Ah, Bess, that would be great! Do you know the spot to be able to quote it when you post in the reviews thread? Are you pretty close to finishing both that one and the sleeping accommodations one?

[Bess]

Yes, I can list the 2 spots for the word in the text...no problem!! Yes...both will be done by the week's end.

[Andrea]

Awesome. I'll mark you down for both books, but if you come upon a snag in the time you've got available to read, let me know. One of us will cover for you if that happens.

[Bess]

Oh, okie! Sounds good. I'll keep you in the loop. :D

[Andrea]

Posted my review.

[Hannah]

That was fast. :)

[Andrea]

I read about half the book today. Now I've only got one more book to go for June's challenge over in CFD. Planning on finishing it tomorrow. Unless I get to it tonight.

[Caitlyn]

Got mine finished and the review posted! :D

[Andrea]

Great job, Caitlyn!

[Andrea]

Bess, I just finished a book that will work for Sleeping Accommodations, but I'll only use it for this round if you need the help with one of the two categories you're doing this round. Let me know. :)

[Bess]

I'm okay right now. Almost done and then I have to write reviews. : )

[Bess]

I have a question... If anyone owns The Bound Heart by Dawn Crandall in electronic version, could you do a word search for "postcard?" Thanks!!

[Andrea]

Proud of you, Bess!

I don't have a copy of that book.

[Bess]

Okie. : )

[Caitlyn]

Great job, Bess!

I don't own that book either, sorry!

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

I searched the book on Google Books and postcard doesn't seem to be in it.

[Andrea]

Megan, thank you! I was unaware of Google books and the search function there.

Bess, was that the book you were reading for Sleeping Accommodations? Wasn't it DreamSpell you were reading for Souvenir: Postcard?

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Yes, it's very helpful. I can't remember how I found out about it, but I usually check there if Amazon doesn't have the search available - many times Google will. :)

Dreamspell is a book I loved reading, I hope you're enjoying it Bess. :)

[Bess]

The bound heart by Dawn Crandall for sleeping accommodations. Yes, Dreamspell for postcard. I'll post reviews in a few when I get to a computer. : )

[Bess]

Okay, reviews are posted!! :D
I want to skip the next category, please. I am up to my eyeballs in crochet jobs and school. Thankfully, my boss hired someone to help me juggle the jobs at work!! She starts on the 10th. I will join back up in a couple of weeks. I'll keep tabs on all of your progress. I you need a book or suggestions, I'll see if I can help anyway possible!! HUGS!! I'm thankful for all you lovely ladies. :D

[Bess]

Megan, Dreamspell caught me off guard. I
was not sure about it. I'll try it again when I'm not sure reading ;)

[Els]

Whew! I finished my book, then realized the title did not start with one of the letters in Brazil! Fortunately the Author's initial saved me, else I did not have time to read anything else!!! I'm desperately packing for our next trip.

[Bess]

Whew...close call, Seneca!! Lucky you! ;)

[Andrea]

Bess, no worries! We'll cover for you next round.

Did you have the direct quote that includes "postcard" to add to your review over on our review thread? I think we've got to include that, if at all possible. Thanks!

[Andrea]

Great job, Seneca!

I put the location. But I can go back and add the quote. Is that what is needed? : )

[Andrea]

Go ahead and add it so Melanie won't have to search for it. We'll save her a step. :)

[Andrea]

Thanks, Bess!

[Andrea]

If I've kept up properly, here's where we stand right now for Round 5 (correct me if I'm wrong):

Hannah, how's your book coming? I know you're busy with your house stuff. Do you need one of us to help with the nourishment book, or do you have it okay?

[Hannah]

I haven't read in a couple days... I should be able to finish it on Saturday. If you want to be done before then, that's okay. Go ahead and read one.
