message 251: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I finished Appaloosa. It was a pretty quick read and it got me to wanting to read more westerns again.

I might have to go on a western binge after the toppler. I have had enough dystopia and time travel for a while.


message 253: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59884 comments Setting aside Alice until the end of the Toppler.

I'm starting World After on audiobook and I Shall Be Near to You on ebook for the toppler.

When you get back to reading time travel again you should read Time and Time Again. Did I tell you that already? I don't remember.


message 260: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I haven't read it yet, Roz, but you told me. It is on my TBR list. ;o)

Roz, I agree with You Time and Time Again was really good!

Finished Flowers for Algernon. Gut wrenchingly good. It went straight on to my favorites list.

Sandra (sanlema) | 11260 comments "Gut wrenchingly good" is a perfect way of describing it.

message 269: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments Carrie - a real blast from the past for me!


message 270: by Lisa (last edited Feb 12, 2018 07:47AM) (new)

Lisa (lisathebooklover) | 9244 comments I finished The Coffin Path for the toppler and the Zodiac challenge. This was one of my most anticipated releases of 2018 but sadly, it didn't live up to expectations. It very nearly ended up with a 2 star rating, but the last 50 or so pages were very good and saved it somewhat so I gave it 3 stars.


message 271: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19137 comments Finished Wonder and started Miller's Valley. Also started Force of Nature. All good so far.


message 272: by Cherie (last edited Feb 12, 2018 12:32PM) (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments The Valkyries are back in Valhalla and I have joined the The Girls of August on Tiger Island - hopefully for some fun in the sun, for my second toppler book.


message 273: by Lisa (new)

Lisa (lisathebooklover) | 9244 comments I have made a start on The Dumb House for the toppler and the Zodiac challenge.


message 274: by Mariab (new)

Mariab | 3059 comments Finishing Princess Academy for the topples


message 276: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59884 comments I finished I Shall Be Near to You last night, and will start A Snicker of Magic for the toppler.


message 277: by Cherie (last edited Feb 13, 2018 11:48AM) (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I left the girls of August on the beach and I am back in Norway with Inspector Sejer at The Water's Edge, my third toppler book and a Zodiac challenge book. I just don't know which task I am going to use it for yet.


message 278: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments I'm listening to Stoner and it's very enjoyable.

Glad you're enjoying it more than your last book, Margo.

Ooh don't remind about Bill Brysons woeful self-narration 😱


message 281: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59884 comments I finished Suspect this evening, and will start Some Danger Involved tomorrow. I hope to finish it before the toppler ends.


message 282: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19137 comments lol, Margo!

Janice, what did you think of Suspect? I liked that one a lot more than I expected to.

I just finished Force of Nature. I thought it was great.

I'm going to continue with Miller's Valley tomorrow. I'm not sure what I'm reading next. I guess I'll work that out tomorrow.


message 283: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59884 comments I really enjoyed it, Kristie. I loved the dog, Maggie, and thought she was much smarter than the human. He was a bit impulsive and undisciplined. I kind of suspected right from the beginning (view spoiler)

I'm guessing you don't recommend Bill Bryson as a narrator, Margo? 😉

I am so glad to hear! I am waiting my turn for a library copy.


message 289: by Kristie, Moderator (new)

Kristie | 19137 comments I think it might be even better than the first one, Cherie.

Oh, I hope it is Kristie! Think I will have to buy it!!


message 291: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments Norway was cold and creepy and I've left Inspector Sejer at The Water's Edge. I am going to Australia to get warm! I'm starting Hero for the toppler, a Zodiac read, and selection on my Australia Writers challenge.

Welcome to the group, Kiah! Head on over to our Introductions thread (here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...) and tell us a little about you :D


message 299: by Margo (new)

Margo | 11628 comments I'm really enjoying Four Fires. Bryce Courtenay is a wonderful writer - can't believe I didn't come across him before now!

This is the book set in the "out back" - see Rus - no hyphen! Sort of like the "down under" in stranger things - isn't it??


message 300: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 59884 comments I started Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day for my twin challenge with Debra.
