Dr. Andy | 14480 comments Audiobooks are my favorite. I finished Eragon yesterday and started the second, Eldest. I love the narrator. I'm also reading Now I Rise.

onceuponatimeareview | 2335 comments I will be post reviews for #GIRLBOSS by Sophia Amoruso and People of the Book by Geraldine Brooks tomorrow in the evening. The plan after that is to read Pure (Covenant, #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout Caraval by Stephanie Garber The Calling (Endgame, #1) by James Frey this week.

Note next week starting the 18th I won't be on as much and probably won't post a lot of reviews until the 27th. I am going into college for my first year and have band camp as well as orientation. I will try to read as much as possible though on my breaks during this time.

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) I'm slow reading atm. The ARC I've been reading almost out me in a slump. Glad I DNF it. It's a relief.

Lisa | 1950 comments Hi everyone 😀
I'm on vacation and can't write reviews on the phone... so you have to read lots of books, while i'm gone so we'll win this challenge 😀
You're great 😀


message 62: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (mommy2gb) | 656 comments My family and I are going camping tomorrow through the weekend, so I should be able to finish several books. I'll try and keep posted as soon as I finish. I'm in the middle of about 5 books right now. Maybe I can get most of them finished.


message 63: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 1950 comments Good morning everyone :D

It's 2.30am and i'm back from my vacation... and will start posting my reviews :)
We might have lost our number 1 place, but we'll get it back :)

@Amanda: hope you have a wonderful time camping :)


message 64: by Beatrice (new)

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) Hey guys! It's been a slow week for me. I got sick and couldn't read as much. I'll continue my reading today. Have a lovely week everyone!


message 65: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 1950 comments Great you're well again :)
Currently we're on the 3rd place but i'm sure we'll can still be number 1 :) but 3 is also great :)
Great week to everyone :)


message 66: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (mommy2gb) | 656 comments Just posted another. I'll try to get at least 3 more done by the end of the week. I had planned on having so much more finished by now. Sorry guys!


message 67: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 1950 comments No, problem! :)
At least for me it's just for fun and to finally get motivated enough to read all the books i wanted to read for so long :)


message 68: by Janor (new)

Janor | 524 comments Hey guys, yeahh I got in a bit of a reading slump while reading eragon.... but I think I'm out of it after reading another book today, will post the review tomorrow! Sorry! I will try to read more!


message 69: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (mommy2gb) | 656 comments No problem at all. I am just doing this for fun also. I'm just super competitive and have done so much more reading the past two months. I just don't want to disappoint ya'll. I've really enjoyed the books I've read. @Janor, I tried Eragon last month and could not read past the first chapter. I just had to dnf and put it back for later. I completely understand.


message 70: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 1950 comments i have already read all the Eragon books and i know that they take some time to getting into :)
especially because they're really big :)
but i'm sure you'll get into it :)
it's okay if we don't win... it's about the reading and only a little(much) *cough* i mean little bit about winning :)


message 71: by Janor (new)

Janor | 524 comments Hey everyone!

I put up my review for Everything Leads to You by Nina LaCour and am almost finished with Carve the Mark (Carve the Mark, #1) by Veronica Roth and Traitor to the Throne (Rebel of the Sands, #2) by Alwyn Hamilton . And hopefully I will finish Eragon (The Inheritance Cycle, #1) by Christopher Paolini tomorrow. I've gotten back into reading, just a shame that I start school again next week...

How are you guys doing? (bookwise and just in general) :)


message 72: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (mommy2gb) | 656 comments I have Carve the Mark and Midnight Jewel to finish. Maybe I can get a few more in before the end.


message 73: by Beatrice (new)

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) I'm almost done with The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson and Four Seconds to Lose (Ten Tiny Breaths, #3) by K.A. Tucker both are buddy reads. I'll try to knock one down tonight so I can start with Corrupt (Devil's Night, #1) by Penelope Douglas


message 74: by Beatrice (new)

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) Finished The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson . It's one lengthy book and I really like the story. I'm gonna write my review tomorrow so I can make progress on Corrupt (which I hope I can finish before the challenge ends.)

message 76: by Beatrice (new)

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) I'm still thinking of reading either Rebel Belle or The Girl With All Gifts since I have the audio books.


message 77: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (mommy2gb) | 656 comments Rebel Belle has a BR thread. I just finished that one a week or so ago.


message 78: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (mommy2gb) | 656 comments I also have Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Harry Potter, #4) by J.K. Rowling that a BR. I will be finished with that probably tomorrow or Wed. at the latest.

message 80: by Janor (new)

Janor | 524 comments Yess! I didn't know we were doing so well :)
I have just finished The Assassin's Blade (Throne of Glass, #0.1-0.5) by Sarah J. Maas and am going to put up the review right now. I might be able to read one more book but I'm going to have to check that I don't choose a book that's too big (else I won't be able to finish it on time)..
