Wanna join me? :D
Karlashould we take that 'character who has at least one line' literally?
In Blood & Thunder (ok, I'm making assumption based on first book in series) there is character that it's part of the team and is present most of the book, but he doesn't speak (he might roar or purr when shifted but no words ☺). Even other characters commented that they very rarely heard him talk. Can I still use him?

Yep, I bought it earlier when I realised it was out.

What letter does he cover? Maybe we don't need him, but I will ask the mods just in case. Is he a person?

And Danielle will have same problem, since she'll read it too. :D

Is he a person? the whole purring or roaring thing makes me wonder.

Okay, I have posted the question.

We can use this character. As long as the character is important to the story, it can be used.
Karla wrote: "We can use this character. As long as the character is important to the story, it c..."Great. I'll leave it so it's up to you what letter you'll use.
Thanks for going to all the trouble.
Karla wrote: "We can use this character. As long as the character is important to the story, it c..."Good to know, thanks!
Finished with The Tyrant's DaughterIt can be classified as T for the title or L for the character Laila.
Update: Sorry this is so late. I spent the day with my oldest nephew. Anyway, we have seven books of round two done. That's 275 points. It was very weird entering Danielle's last book read as 8/15/14, since it is still the 14th for me!
Sarah wrote: "I will be finishing my three but it will be close to deadline, but should finish Goldfinch tonight."No problem. I'm still working on two of my books.
And? I've got only few chapters in, but will continue in an hour or two (when I'm done with In Death on audio).I loved that scene when they went to partner bonding lesson (or whatever it was called) ☺
Yep, that was a great scene. I really liked it. With loving the first, I was hoping the second would be great too and I wasn't disappointed. I'm definitely looking forward to more from this series. I like these characters and want to read more about them.

So, did Hobbs speak? :P

Nope, although it's explained why he doesn't.
Finished
- Summer of Awakenings. Karla, will you please let me know if there are any letters that are needed to be read tomorrow?

I will be updating really soon. I was just finishing one of my books.
had another extremely busy week...and lucky to finish anything at all! :( I am hoping to finish another shortly...but not sure if it will count for this week or next :)
Catherine wrote: "had another extremely busy week...and lucky to finish anything at all! :( I am hoping to finish another shortly...but not sure if it will count for this week or next :)"I wasn't expecting you to finish any books this week, so one is good. If you can finish before 5:50 pm PST, then it will count. That gives me ten minutes to check the book and add it to our list.
Update: We have one book left in round two. I was able to move things around, there are two of us currently working on an H book, the last letter. I will finish my book in time.Danielle, You can read whatever letter you want. I would suggest that you didn't read a book that only fits H or F, since I have Sarah and Tea down for them. But, you never do that, so I don't really have to suggest not too.
Finished The Goldfinch - my favorite good character was Hobie = H. What a wild ride. Five stars from me for the Pulitzer for fiction winner. I loved it.

Done with Blood & ThunderSadly, guy I asked about spend most of the book in hospital recovering from injury, so I'd say he's out of the letter list (good thing you didn't put him down for it ☺).
I'm also not sure I'll finish my F book in time for this round, so I'll probably try to find something else quick to read (another F?)
❀Tea❀ wrote: "Done with Blood & Thunder."Did you like?
❀Tea❀ wrote: "I'm also not sure I'll finish my F book in time for this round, so I'll probably try to find something else quick to read (another F?)"
The H is covered, but you can read any other letter, but if you do choose not to read an F, will you please tell me what letter you are changing to as I'm deciding what I'll read today.
❁ Danielle wrote: "❀Tea❀ wrote: "I'm also not sure I'll finish my F book in time for this round, so I'll probably try to find something else q..."Looks like I won't be reading F, since book I have has only that letter.
I'll probably go with It's Complicated - I, L, T, S, H
❁ Danielle wrote: "Did you like?"Yeah, I did. ☺ I've been reading it till 4am and then only stopped because reader was out of battery. :P
Now I hate it I have to wait few months for next one.

They always seem to loose battery when you want to keep reading :)
Yeah, I hate the waiting. It looks like there's one more this year and three next year, so plenty to look forward too :D
❁ Danielle wrote: "They always seem to loose battery when you want to keep reading :)"My reader has pretty good knack for it. He made same great cliffhangers. :P
Not to mention, he's in conspiracy with light. If reader is full, I can be sure, my light battery will die in the moment. ☺
I started The Nik of Time, but I've got a headache, so I'm going to take a break and catch up on the TV show Scandal. I will let you know if I get back to reading and if I'll finish.
