I'll fix that. I was copying and pasting to make it easier.

Sarah | 3273 comments Finished The Circle by Dave Eggers by Dave Eggers. Characters Ty, Annie = A, T, D, E.

Not sure if I can finish my other two. I have just been working so much lately.

Yeah, I haven't had much time to read this week, either. Even one book helps, so great job! I'll add it to the list as soon as you set the read date.

Alyssa | 134 comments I have to agree too with my own personal lack of reading lately! I finished my one book and am trying for the other, but life has been really hectic here (hospitals, school, work, etc). I will keep trying though!

Catherine | 5067 comments finished The Duke and I (Bridgertons, #1) by Julia Quinn ...works for A, D :)

Real life has to come first.


message 861: by Karla (new)

Karla Update: Round three is done. We have one book left in round four. It's safe to say we have A and N covered for round five.

Sarah | 3273 comments I started Knight, it is a poorly written book with bad editing to boot, but the hot sex and easy reading has totally got me flying through this book, 50% done in a couple of hours. So I will finish for sure - I haven't been able to put it down. Anyway it would work for U - (An Unfinished Hero Novel) or A, by Kristen Ashley or N for character Nick. Not my typical genre but I must say a little hot and bothered. Am I allowed to say this, because it is erotica and it fits under the genre New Adult, my first BSM. Never did read Fifty Shades of Gray

Sarah | 3273 comments I also started Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail on audio and think I can finish. Character Leaf, Eddie = W, L, E

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5772 comments Finished Vile (Faces of Evil, #8) by Debra Webb - Vile

From what I can work out. You've done N and A. I'm almost done with D and W. Sarah had the U and maybe L.

So to finish round 5 we need E, T, and maybe L


message 868: by ❀Tea❀ (new)

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9633 comments I'll be done with Holmes soon so that can be T.

I'll check what I have.


message 869: by ❀Tea❀ (new)

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9633 comments Just checking..

18% Gray could count as E, right?


message 870: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (last edited Aug 29, 2014 08:56AM) (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5772 comments I think that spelling the number works.


message 871: by ❀Tea❀ (new)

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9633 comments Good thing we are finishing soon. New The Sims are coming out next week, and I'll definitely need a break from reading after this week. ☺


message 872: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5772 comments I liked doing this challenge and even tho I read a lot normally, it's definitely not as much as I've done these last 7 weeks. So it'll be nice to get back into my normal reading. It a good that the other challenges that I'm starting in now only need one or two books a week.


message 873: by Audrey Jane (new)

Audrey Jane | 1854 comments I will be able to finish Bitter Spirits which works for the letters A and W. I haven't encountered other characters' names with the letters we need yet. I couldn't sleep well last night so I started Unholy Ghosts on a whim. I might be able to finish that too.

Yep, same here, I enjoyed doing this challenge with you fellow hobbits. I hope nobody will have a Wheel-a-thon hangover afterwards :) It did reduce my tbr pile in a way, wait a minute...nah I added more books :p


message 874: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments I also edited my previous post to add characters Eddie and Nick

Thank you for your effort! ☺ You've probably read more than rest of us together.

I've kept more or less to my usual book per week so far. This week I think I've double it or even more. We
got good combination of letters this round (at least for me).
I'd say this challenge was good for my TBR but I'd lie, since I've used most of your books that weren't there before. ☺
Yeah, my other team challenges are book per week so it'll be a break. Unless Mods start something similar soon.

That's the point of doing challenges. :P
No matter what they say, my TBR is always larger after them


message 877: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5772 comments Yeah, I've certainty added to my TBR and I got to say for my first team challenge I've definitely enjoyed it. That's why I signed up for others.

So we don't need E?
*back to searching*


Karla! Help! :P


message 879: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (last edited Aug 29, 2014 02:04PM) (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5772 comments Finished both Second Chances and Heinous


message 880: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments You could take E but if an L is better you could do that because mine works for both

You do *grin* I followed some of your comments from you signing up to a few in my feed and had to check out. I miss the challenges otherwise lol

OK, it's fair. You give me books I give you challenges. :P

And just to prepare you, I'll be starting this again this round. :D

❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9633 comments Latest report from our undercover agent...

Looks like SH is on their 4th spelling of 8-letter word. *yay*

Is undercover agent trying to trick us?

that's good news!

Karla Sorry, ladies, I had a training class today and couldn't get on here until now. I'll go update everything and let you know what we need.

message 894: by Karla (new)

Karla Update: I have asked the mods if we can use T. A. Webb for T and 18% Gray for E. I'll post the answer as soon as I receive it, but I don't see why they would say no. 18 begins with E, and the Author's first name starts with T.

I will finish my book, which can be used for L and try to finish my second book, which can be used for N.


message 895: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa | 134 comments Also, for The Zookeeper's Daughter, there are short sections about each animal. Can I use their names?

Not the animals, but if there are characters, then yes.


message 897: by Karla (new)

Karla Just got the answer to my questions. Both of the books work, so Sarah, Tea, and I just have to finish our books, and we will have read our genre five times. Great job, ladies!

Ahh that is unfortunate because the book is just about the animals.

Your book still works for L and D, so if you finish it by tomorrow, we can count it as long as Sarah and Tea finish their books. On the off chance Tea doesn't finish hers, I can switch mine to T and use yours for L.

Sarah | 3273 comments I am finishing up Knight now.
