How long do you need to wait for the next one now?
I haven't read this series yet, but it's on my TBR.
Probably about 1 year - there are three left in the series. It took me a while to get into the series, the world building is unique and they don't explain everything at once... but by about book 3 I was hooked. Great characters, well plotted out storyline.
Finished Resisting the Bad Boy by Violet Duke.N - series name - Nice Girl to Love
A - character - Abby Bartlett
S - character - Connor Sullivan
Finished Yuri by Roxie Riveria.Y - Yuri (Title and Character)
- Yelena Cruz (Character)
N - Yuri Novakovsky (Character)
T - Tommy Cruz and Ty Weston (Characters)
S - Eric Santos (Character)
F - Feodor.
Renee, Can we use the same character's letter twice if they are featured in different books in the same series. Eg Yuri, appears as a leading character in a couple of books in the series so can we use the Y again in a different set? Or if you can't use the Y for Yuri again, can we use the Y in Yelena (different book) instead in another set as it didn't get used?

There has been a bit of chat in the captains group about the fact that this challenge looks like it will end next week. People are saying that they would like it to go longer. The original plan was for it to last 6 to 8 weeks. The current suggestion is that instead of the goal being the first to get to 2000 points, we just go to the end of August and who ever has the most points wins. What do you guys think?
I would like to continue. It's easy and relaxed game, no complicated rules, I like it!
I could do it until the end of August, however, I may be only to read one or two books a week
August sounds good to me.Finished Fire Burn and Cauldron Bubble
Title - F
Character - S (Sinjin Sinclair)

hey everyone - I havent abandoned you I promise...I have had life set back, my job here at the hospital has been outsourced to another company & they have decided that the 4 of us are not going to keep our jobs, with that being said out of the 4 of us they requested that I take a test after my interview, which they have said that loved me but I had to pass this test before I move on with the new company...with that being said I have had to study the last few nights..i took my test today so I am waiting to hear something before I leave today to go home hopefully....anyway I wanted everyone to know that I was still here just had to take a mini break...I promise to update everything tonight when I get home....
hey everyone - good news....I received a call tonight from my boss & the HR director that I passed my test with flying colors...only missed 1 out of 100 possible points...Im so proud of myself...I have to wait to see what kind of offer the other company comes back with so it's still a waiting game but at least I am one step closer. I have also updated the Spreadsheet thru post 441...we just need 2 As & an Y giving us a 3rd completed FANTASY!! Awesome job everyone...
Renee~I finished
, nora roberts - I took the S but please move around accordingly if we need to...
Hey guys, I am going through a really hard time and I haven't been reading, I can have a lot of books read probably next week
I so understand myself. Hope all is better soon
Sallie - Awesome news on the test score! The waiting is so hard - hope there is more good news for you.Erin - I hope things get better for you soon. If you do finish any books, you can mark them read and put them in your wheelathon shelf and I can work it our from there.
Updated post 4.
Great going Sallie and hope things are looking up for you soon, Erin. I'm all out of "Y"'s now but am working on an "A". Probably can finish and post by about 2 hours before deadline tomorrow.
Sallie, great news! I'm so glad for you. I have just about done with Lara Adrian book, so that gives us another A.
I am reading the same book probably Crave The Night. Can we use the same book twice, there is an A and a N letters that fit.Should I finish it or hold off and hope it fits next round?
