I like to aim high so that I can accomplish at least a tenth of what I plan. :)

Plus I'm trying to read at least 1000 pages a day so I can read all the books on this list by the end of the month - https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...


message 61: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'm over 50% done Trial by Fire. I should be done it today. :)

I'm done Trial by Fire! Just need to comment on BR thread and I can post it. I'm on fire today!! :D


message 64: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'm making good progress on my book Firewalker (Worldwalker, #2) by Josephine Angelini I think I'll finish it today. :)


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Yay! I was out of town all day yesterday, so hoping to get my reviews posted tonight :-)

I also need to start and finish The Bone Witch (The Bone Witch, #1) by Rin Chupeco The Girl with All the Gifts by M.R. Carey but I'll settle for 50% of each.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Finished Witch's Pyre. :)


message 69: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Has anyone heard from Cinthia lately? We really need her books if we don't want to drop down to last place again. :/


message 70: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'm currently working on Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer should be done today. I also will be posting Bad Romance by Heather Demetrios as soon as I find the energy to comment on the BR thread. :)


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) LOL! I have a couple reviews to post tonight, if I find the energy to write my reviews ;-)

I think we are running out of energy as the challenge winds down. >.<

I'm already super excited for next month!!!! :D


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Well it is tough when it is just really three of us, and only the two of us interacting on this thread :-)


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) At this point I don't even look at the scores, I'm just assuming we are in last or close ;-)

Yeah. I'm really looking forward to being chatty next month. Goodreads is basically my only social life so when I get a super quiet team I get depressed. :(

Same. The important thing is we are having fun and trying our best. ^-^


message 77: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Posted Cinder and Bad Romance. Moving on to Scarlet and Stars Above. :)


message 78: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'm about 1/2 done Scarlet. I'm hoping to finish it 'today'. But I think I'm going to head to bed shortly so I might not finish it 'today'.

I gave up on Stars Above as it has more spoilers than I was expecting. So I'm going to wait and read it in the right order. :)


message 79: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Finished Scarlet. Will post later tonight as I still have to do my BR comments.


message 80: by Leah (new)

Leah | 2623 comments I have a couple of books that I should be finishing tonight or tomorrow.


message 81: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'm starting Cress today. :)

Gj! :D


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Hopefully I will write my reviews tonight, but if not tomorrow for sure!

I think I might have Cress done tonight. I'm about 50% sure. :)


message 85: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Finished Cress! Will wait to post for a bit. I really want to start Winter!!! :D


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Is this the first time you're reading the series? I love that series! And each book is better than the last :-)

I've read Cinder and Scarlet before. But I don't think I ever finished Cress. :)


message 88: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'm about half done Winter. I'm about 20% sure I'll finish it today. :)


message 89: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Finished Winter! :D


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Nice!


message 91: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments So I'm probably going to finish Stars Above (The Lunar Chronicles, #4.5) by Marissa Meyer and Fairest (The Lunar Chronicles, #3.5) by Marissa Meyer today. And since those only add up to about 300 pages I'm also going to try to throw in at least 50% of Daughter of the Burning City by Amanda Foody


message 92: by Leah (new)

Leah | 2623 comments I added another book today, and I should fit in a few more before the end of the month.

message 94: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (last edited Aug 27, 2017 10:25PM) (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments My HOPE is to finish another 11 BRs/GBRs and a few other books (for a total of 14) but in reality I'll probably finish closer to 5. :/


message 95: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I think I may have finally hit my reading slump of the month. D:


message 96: by Leah (new)

Leah | 2623 comments I understand. I had that problem in June and July.


message 97: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Leah wrote: "I understand. I had that problem in June and July."

I have one every month but I thought I had it beat this month. :(


message 98: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments At least I read an insane amount (for me) before it hit. :/


message 99: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I also still have three reviews to post Cress (The Lunar Chronicles, #3) by Marissa Meyer Winter (The Lunar Chronicles, #4) by Marissa Meyer Stars Above (The Lunar Chronicles, #4.5) by Marissa Meyer which should get us a nice stack of points. :)


message 100: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments So I still have 4 reviews to post and then I'm done! GJ team! It was fun! See you on the next challenge Berit! :D
