Kelly | 1350 comments Depending on how the rest of the month will go, I might have to change for medium and read less than in april. Anyway, we’ll see. This week I’ll try to finish Acotar and I might listen to some audiobooks :).

All of my bloody essays on this thread XD I'm so sorry!

Awesome Kelly!


message 1053: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 1350 comments No need for apologies haha.

And to be honest, I’m a bit less excited for next month’s challenge than this one. ‘Uno’ has been great so far! ^^

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Yeah I'm always way more excited for these types of challenges, that's for sure.

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I just woke up from my naps and I feel a bit better so I'll go make my updates for the Wicked Deep then finish it :D

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Awesome! I'm pleased you're feeling better. Keep up the water too!
250 words to go of my assignment, I reckon I can bullshit that much pretty easily :p Quote some things, use up my word limit.


message 1057: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I finished the wicked deep :D


message 1058: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Yay!! Feeling better?

I've got 2.5hr before I leave for work, so I'm just chilling and playing Dota XD Finished my assignment :D Might read after work if I don't watch a movie, and I probably won't XD


message 1059: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments Still kinda out of it. But well enough to read and post my reviews lol


message 1060: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Sleep again then.


message 1061: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments Nah. I'll stay up for a while then actually go to bed. If I took a nap now that would wreck my sleep schedule


message 1062: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
True haha. I want to read my book, but I don't want to XD


message 1063: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I know that feeling lol


message 1064: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
I want to be one of those people that just read in all their spare time but then I go to do it and I feel like I am wasting it xD I just can't get myself to do it


message 1065: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Swapped Great and Terrible Beauty for Beautiful Beloved, as that's a really short one that I'll get finished tomorrow. Also added in Acowar which I need to read in the next 2 weeks. So yes I'm doing alright XD

New card:
(19)**47. Red 'Reverse' - Play a previously completed category/card again. (will be chosen using random.org)
---33. Yellow Two - 'yellow 2' - Read books whose titles contain the letters 'C', 'I', and 'D' (for CID 31425) (Title must contain all 3 letters, but in any order.) (examples of words which contain 'C', 'I', and 'D' are accident, suicide, coincidence, lucid, and acid)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
I'm not adding any books to that card, I really just need to focus on what I've got so far. I need to finish up York, it's just not really gripping me just yet. Good thing I like the cover and the font XD Unfortunately it isn't a BR :( At least tomorrow I'll have another completion, Beautiful Beginning, 2 points XD


message 1068: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 1350 comments I’m going to look at my tbr and maybe take a spot in the new card. Also there’s only 10 points between us and Valencia! :O Sorry to hear about York.


message 1069: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 1350 comments Ok so I might read Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer or A Discovery of Witches (All Souls Trilogy, #1) by Deborah Harkness . They’re planned BRs so that’s nice.


message 1070: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 1350 comments And I have no idea what to listen to :/.


message 1071: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I'm currently working on Tiny Pretty Things (Tiny Pretty Things, #1) by Sona Charaipotra and The Shadow Throne (The Ascendance Trilogy, #3) by Jennifer A. Nielsen


message 1072: by [deleted user] (new)

Hey girls. I finished one book this weekend and am halfway through another. I won’t be able to update anything til tonight. I just got out of doing my last 16 hr shift this week so I need sleep.


message 1073: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Yes you do need sleep Cinthia! That's amazing!

I need to get ready to leave, as I slept in this morning which was really nice XD I will start Achilles by Greg Boose audio today on my drive, really hope it isn't too confusing XD Based on the synopsis it will be, but it's a Netgalley and that's an available way to get through it so I'm jumping in. I'll finish York when I get to my parents today I hope. I've only got around 140 pages to go so won't take me too long. It's definitely nothing special XD Just the cover love <3


message 1074: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Unless you guys think I should find a book one of you guys are already reading so it can be a BR? We're getting really pushed for points, Seville's only 10 behind us now. The competition's getting amped again, so I'm gonna be pushing myself (and the team of course) XD Be prepared.


message 1075: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Achilles will be available as an audio any time, so I think while we're tight I'll find another audio that's a BR so more points.


message 1076: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
We're really not close to finishing any more cards apart from my Shadow Cipher.

I HAVE ANOTHER IDEA: Shall I just take the rest of the CID slots with really short audios so we can get through another card? Don't have time to take our time anymore XD I leave the house in an hour and a bit XD Hopefully someone's replied by then! Just one opinion haha.


message 1077: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 1350 comments I’m going to push myself as well this week! We really need to earn some points haha.

I’m 150 pages in ACOTAR, 40 in Cinder and only listened 40 minutes of They both die at the end (7 hours to go). I really hope I’m going to finish Acotar and the audiobook tomorrow.


message 1078: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 1350 comments I thought I’d be reading Cinder and A discovery of witches for that card and be done Thursday but if you want to listen to audiobooks and get it done faster, go for it. I’m sure my books will fit somewhere else. :)


message 1079: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 1350 comments What’s your planning going to be like Maddie with the other books you planned to read on the ss?

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Na you're all good to take 2 of those spots Kelly XD I'll just find another 2 shorties to get through :) Beautiful Beginning is one of the audios I'll listen to in the car, so the other 2 will be for CID title.

Alright so I'm finishing York today/tomorrow, finishing off that card. I'll then read Marvelous Adventures and then Acowar. So those last 2 will be my readathon books :) I'm thinking that I won't start at midnight though, because it's too hard to sleep early knowing I'll have to wake up at a weird time XD I'll start at 7 when I wake up and then just see how long I can go for. I can sleep in the next day which will be nice. I'd like to finish Acowar, but it's a beast and I kind of want to process it rather than rushing it, so I might add another book in there and alternate between them XD


message 1081: by [deleted user] (new)

I’m reading gossip girl after this windfall. I’m 10% away from being done. I saw the series so I hope it’s similar but that there are more stuff in it. I’m excited about it!!!


message 1082: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Are you almost done with Panda Cinthia? You've also got Amour Amour on the spreadsheet.


message 1083: by [deleted user] (new)

No. Panda is always taking the back seat. But I did finish amour. I don’t feel like picking up panda.


message 1084: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Alright, mind updating for Amour? Just do you don't forget.

I found some super short books to take those 2 CID slots XD The audios are only 1.5hr and they've had really good reviews somehow.


message 1085: by [deleted user] (new)

I will when I finish Windfall.


message 1086: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Alrighty.

Turns out only one book in that tiny series had CID in title, so back to looking for another XD


message 1087: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments Btw Maddie you keep saying Seville is close or ahead of us and they're like 60 points behind us. Valencia is the real competition.


message 1088: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I'm pretty close to finishing Tiny Pretty Things, so after that I'll start on Emperor Mage or keep going with The Shadow Throne, just depends on how I feel tonight.


message 1089: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Oh right that's who I mean XD My bad!

Yay! You feeling all better now Andrea?


message 1090: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments Yeah I was a little tired today, but other than that felt fine!


message 1091: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments It's been a long day in lab, but I'm really enjoying Tiny Pretty Things. Might try to find the sequel for the other sports spot.


message 1092: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
And found my other audio which will fill out the slots for that card. XD One's 1.5hr and the other's 1hr, so with me listening on 3x speed I'll get both of those done along with Beautiful Beginning. I'll update those when I get home in a few hours.


message 1093: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
All of the sports spots are taken. All of the spots are taken now :D

On the way home tomorrow I'll start my Netgalley audio, as I don't have any other spots that need taking.


message 1094: by [deleted user] (new)

What audios are they


message 1095: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Director's Cut by Vanessa Acton and The Girl Who Owned a City The Graphic Novel by O.T. Nelson


message 1096: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
And the Netgalley one is Achilles by Greg Boose


message 1097: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments Maddie if you don't finish your book for the York card, I can put Tiny Pretty Things there until you do. That way we'll definitely get a new card today


message 1098: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Oh sure that works! And then when I finish York I'll just swap it out?


message 1099: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Time for my Insta.


message 1100: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53738 comments Mod
Uh oh I just found out that the audio The Girl Who Owned A City is a graphic novel... There is a paperback version for it, do you think I'll be able to count that one? I have no idea how a graphic novel audio is going to work...
