Thanks for checking in and sorry you've been ill. Can I just check, does Slave to Sensation have Vampires, werewolves, or ghosts in the story? The write up isn't clear, and what I know of the book I'm not too sure .....

How do we check card 2 in the spreadsheet?Can you please tell me..I see only Card 3."


Card 2 is full of completed categories or people who are currently reading books.

So we'll need to find a category on card 3

Great :)

Lynn | 2974 comments siriusedward - Slightly Danderous from what I can see, can either be last in series or free space. Unless you find something else once you read it.

I'll put it down as free space at the moment, as it looks like that column could possibly be completed.


message 207: by siriusedward (new)

siriusedward (elenaraphael) | 887 comments Oh.ok.
Thanks Lynn.
Then,do you think you can fit Scarlet for space setting.I will be able to finish both my tomorrow night or Friday morning.


message 208: by Lynn (new)

Lynn | 2974 comments Sure, I'll put you down for space setting too


message 209: by Lara (new)

Lara | 1426 comments I just finished my Mountain setting book, and have decided to listen to the sequel, Evanly Choirs, which will fit either cozy mystery or Author name starts with R on card 3.

I think I might be able to fit in a book for set in Australia (depends if I finish my current book tonight, so will know by tomorrow) .... so if we can find someone to read either cozy mystery or Author name starts with R then we'll have a completed line for card 3


message 211: by Annerlee (new)

Annerlee | 2871 comments I can commit to one more book for card 3, but that may be my limit I think. Set in the future or author with R would be easiest for me.

I'm sure you're aware of this, but just double checking ... I'm still waiting on two books from you for card 2. If you're happy with those and a third book for card 3, then yes I'll put you down for author with R :)


message 213: by siriusedward (new)

siriusedward (elenaraphael) | 887 comments Finished Scarlet.


message 214: by Annerlee (new)

Annerlee | 2871 comments Lynne: a book for card 3 is still fine.

I've just finished one of the outstanding books for card 2 and am nearly half way through the second: Flowers for Algernon for 'set in US'.

About to start 'reading' The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler on audiobook for author beginning with R. I can start it on the bus home if I'm anti-social and explain to the old lady I normally chat to. She reads - she'll understand ; )


message 215: by Lara (new)

Lara | 1426 comments I finished Evanly Choirs for cozy mystery. It looks like disabled MC will be my last new book (I'll finish my nonfiction book tomorrow).


message 216: by Lynn (new)

Lynn | 2974 comments Great, thanks Annerlee and Lara

I think we've reached our limit, but if anyone is looking to squeeze in another book then 'Set In Future' would give us another completed line.

Anna Kļaviņa (annamatsuyama) | 1355 comments started reading The Blue Castle, card #3., set in canada putting that on hold and will start to read a book set in future

message 223: by Lara (new)

Lara | 1426 comments Lynn, the categories listed for me are in progress. I've started The Vixen and the Vet for disabled MC--the hero was wounded in either Iraq or Afghanistan, and both lost his right hand and has a seriously disfigured face. Whenever I see the title I recall a comment on the SBTB blog in which the person said she thought from the title that it was about a veterinarian and a fox shifter. I think I'd like that book too ;-)

This was for space setting,Lynn...
I will finish Slightly Dangerous doon,for free space.


message 225: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I'm 2/3 of my way through my book for the free space. I will finish it tomorrow. I'm not sure that I can finish another but I will look and see what is the shortest and if it will fit in - at least I will go from there.


message 226: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments Yikes, I'm the only one still left on card 1! The book is taking me a bit longer than expected and I've been kind of forcing myself through it (not because it's not enjoyable, but because my week is a lot busier and more stressful than I thought it would be, and this book has started to feel like something I also 'have' to do, so I'm reading when I'm not really in the mood for reading).

But no worries, I'll finish it on time. I'm 82% in and have only 3 or 4 more chapters to go.

I have that on my tbr for this month too!


message 229: by Peggy (new)

Peggy (pebbles84) | 15868 comments I finished my second book. I won't be able to do another in the remaining 18 hours, so that was it for me!


message 230: by Annerlee (new)

Annerlee | 2871 comments Great stuff! Hope you enjoyed your reads, despite having to squeeze them in around work.

I'm half way through my audiobook for author with R and I started Frankenstein Unbound for time travel on the bus home. It's ony 188 pages, so I should finish it this evening.

message 232: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments Hi Lynn,

I just noticed the Color in the title box on card three. I have been re-listening to Crucible of Gold all week. I should finish it tonight, if you want to put me down. I never add it to my "currently reading" list, because it was a re-listen for me. Does it matter?


message 233: by Lynn (new)

Lynn | 2974 comments Yup, I can put you down for that :)


message 234: by Lynn (new)

Lynn | 2974 comments That actually leaves one space left for us to complete another row .... which is 'Book that a teammate rated 5★'

So if anyone else has read a book throughout the week that you didn't count towards a category, give us a shout and we'll see if anyone else has rated it 5. You never know!


message 235: by siriusedward (last edited Feb 16, 2018 03:40PM) (new)

siriusedward (elenaraphael) | 887 comments I read Cress,will it fit?

And space setting done and reported Lynne.


message 236: by Lara (new)

Lara | 1426 comments Well, I just started Dark in Death, which fits author pseudonym on card 3. It does fit several other categories if shuffling helps, but as a new release I don't think it'll fit 5 stars.

Yes it will! Cherie rated it 5 stars :D

No problem Lara, as you can see we found a fit for the category anyway. So I'll put this down for author pseudonym :)


message 240: by Vicki (new)

Vicki | 1538 comments I reported my animal perspective book- it was hilarious.
I found a children's book with an elephant on the cover so I'm listening to it now: What Elephants Know by Eric Dinerstein but I'm pretty tired so I might not finish it.


message 241: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I finished my book for the free space on card 2, Lynn and reported it in the reporting thread.

I will be listening to the end of Crucible of Gold tonight. I don't think I can finish another in the time left.


message 242: by Cherie (new)

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments I finished the audio book, Crucible of Gold, linked in my previous post and posted it in the reporting thread. It was all I could do to stay awake at the end. I'm done now and going to bed.

Lynn | 2974 comments Morning everyone .... Time for me to finish my last two books!


message 245: by Annerlee (new)

Annerlee | 2871 comments Good morning team!
I'm curling up with my final book. It's Saturday and the sun is streaming through the window... Just the thing.


message 246: by Lara (new)

Lara | 1426 comments I worried I wouldn't finish my final book but managed to get it done this morning. Author pseudonym: Dark in Death has been reported.


message 247: by Lynn (new)

Lynn | 2974 comments Whoop! That's now Card 1 and Card 2 completed.

Just me and Annerlee left to finish to complete a row and a column on Card 3.

I'm pretty sure mine will be done .... back to reading!


message 248: by Annerlee (new)

Annerlee | 2871 comments I just finished my final book and reported it for author beginning with R.


message 249: by Annerlee (new)

Annerlee | 2871 comments Lynn ..before you submit our final score, can I attempt a reshuffle and try to get an extra line? If it's worth it...?


message 250: by Lynn (new)

Lynn | 2974 comments Sure, what is your suggestion?
