Yeah I've got Not Bad People to review, I finished that today, and tomorrow I'll finish up Hard To Love.

Also my readathon started on Sunday and lasts the month, so each day I hope to make great reading progress. Sunday is also the first day of a 24in48, and my family's away majority of the day, so I'll definitely be doing plenty of audio and physicals then, although most of them may not be BR as the theme for the readathon is 'diverse' and I don't have any diverse books planned. If anyone wants to BR any, I'm seriously keen.

I'll update for the books tomorrow.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Yay King's Cage is available. I'll just count that as diverse because it does in a little way count :p I'll start that after my next read!

These are some of the books I'm planning on reading over the next 2 weeks. Anyone know any free KU books that are diverse/LGBTQ?
Radio Silence by Alice Oseman Daughter of Smoke & Bone (Daughter of Smoke & Bone, #1) by Laini Taylor

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9967 comments Hey guys. Home from hols and just catching up. I'll have three books to update but won't be on my laptop until tomorrow, to add them to the review thread. I'm hoping to get a few more books completed this weekend, as well

Tiera McMillian (hawtmess) | 3419 comments I’ve got like 12 reviews to write I have just been super swamped. I’ll try to get them all written by tomorrow!


message 357: by Shar (new)

Shar (fictionalshar) | 959 comments Hey maddie I can join in with daughter of smoke and bone! I finished a book last night and almost finished clockwork princess


message 358: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16187 comments No worries guys get them up when you can :) I am probably going to start The Evolution of Mara Dyer (Mara Dyer, #2) by Michelle Hodkin now and then jump into Kings Cage.


message 359: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
I reckon we've still got this guys!

@Shar: Hooray! Apparently it works as an Asexual book, not sure, but it's on a GR list for it, so I'm counting it XD Will try read the whole series as well. I'll try finish Grave Mercy as well as Hard to Love today, but will see how that goes. Still got quite a bit to go.

@Courtney: Sounds great!


message 360: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Time to update for my book. I can't be bothered, but I got to XD


message 361: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16187 comments If you get to Dreams of Gods & Monsters (Daughter of Smoke & Bone, #3) by Laini Taylor I might join.


message 362: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Awesome! I plan on getting to that, as I don't have any other books physically to read during the readathon, but will just see.

I kind of plan to finish King's Cage tomorrow or Monday.


message 363: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16187 comments If I cant get to Kings Cage tomorrow I wont be able to start it until Tuesday.


message 364: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 3530 comments Hey guys, just wanted to warn you that I might be MIA for the next week. I have some travel coming up and may not have easy access to GR. Rest assured, I will be reading, although not quite as much as usual, but reading nonetheless. I'll be sure to post some reviews when I can.


message 365: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
@Courtney: That's still fine :) Maybe I'll do Radio Silence first then.

@Jennifer: No worries we can just blow them out of the water when you get back. And I plan on reading at least an hour physical and 2hr audio each day for the next 2 weeks, so I'll get plenty of reading done.


message 366: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16187 comments I am already at my 12! Wasnt expecting that. I doubted I would make it at all.

@Maddie: I will let you know when I start it then :) I still havent started another book yet. Opps.


message 367: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Yeah I didn't think I'd make it either, based on the start of the month, but I'm fine XD


message 368: by Shar (new)

Shar (fictionalshar) | 959 comments @Courtney have you started steelheart yet?


message 369: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16187 comments Shar wrote: "@Courtney have you started steelheart yet?"

Yes. I already finished it as well. I can still discuss it with you though.


message 370: by Shar (new)

Shar (fictionalshar) | 959 comments Lol oops I’ll start it tomorrow then 😂


message 371: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9967 comments @Jennifer enjoy your travelling 😊

I'm pretty much free for the weekend so planning on doing nothing but reading. Lucky thing really as I'm getting behind on my BRs. I'd really like to finish Finale, Daughters Unto Devils, Shadowfrost, Spellslinger, and Gravy Mercy and I'll be all caught up :)


message 372: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
I'm also very far behind. Plan is to try really hard tomorrow to get through as many books as I can for my 24in48, but the theme is diverse books, so I'm putting down Grave Mercy for a few days to focus on those. I'll be picking up Radio Silence first thing on audio, and then will get into King's Cage audio. Physicals I've got planned are only really the DoSaB trilogy, which should take me a bit. Just glad I'll be getting them off my TBR finally! I'll make a thread for those now and post it here.

Will also be finding more diverse reads hopefully from my bookshelf throughout the next two weeks.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
I'll be sleeping early tonight, already tired and got plenty of reading to do tomorrow! Nowhere near going to get 24hr done over the next 2 days, as I work Monday, but either way it'll be great reading time!


message 375: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Got 5 physicals picked out so far! The 3 DoSaB books, The Binding by Bridget Collins and Little Darlings by Melanie Golding

Does anyone want to BR The Binding or Little Darlings? I'll be picking out other LGBT books after that. GR has them tagged under LGBT, so I'm just going with it.


message 376: by Courtney (last edited Jun 15, 2019 08:47PM) (new)

Courtney | 16187 comments Just an FYI these are the last categories we need to get to round 6:
Aztec Mystery ✔
Industrial Physical✔
Industrial Mystery
Medieval Physical

If all goes well I will be able to finish my current read today, and cross one of those off.


message 377: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9967 comments Good luck on your 24in48 :) Is it just you doing it, or a specific challenge? I thought 24in48 wasn't until July. I got hardly any reading done today as I felt dead from driving 7 hours yesterday. I'll definitely pick the pace back up tomo and also get on my computer to post the reviews for the books I read whilst away


message 378: by Leah (new)

Leah | 2629 comments I added a book for Industrial Physical.


message 379: by Shar (new)

Shar (fictionalshar) | 959 comments I'll get one done today which can only cover for Aztec mystery.


message 380: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
It's for my personal readathon on Insta :) I'm really not going to get finished, as I'm only starting reading now pretty much, and I've got plans today and work tomorrow, but all reading is good


message 381: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9967 comments Good luck with your reading, anyway :)

I have two books finished that will work for Industrial Mystery and Medieval Physical. Will post tomorrow for them :)


message 382: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Sounds awesome! I'm going to be starting Radio Silence now while I see if anyone is on to sprint :)


message 383: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
20% into Radio Silence and it's so bloody amazing! Potential 5-star right now! The relationships, the rep, the friendships, the characters, the honesty! <3

I read it a few months back and it was a five star for me! I loved the issues it addressed and it was done so well!

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
I am adoring it <3 About to start DoSaB for a little bit though before someone comes round for a movie.


message 386: by Shar (new)

Shar (fictionalshar) | 959 comments Just posted one for Aztec Mystery


message 387: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Sounds great! I haven't started DoSaB yet, but I will! Going to listen to audio for a bit.


message 388: by Shar (new)

Shar (fictionalshar) | 959 comments I’m listening to audio at the moment now too


message 389: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
I'm 30% into Radio Silence. Thought I'd finish today, still might. But otherwise tomorrow. I'll also start King's Cage tomorrow.


message 390: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9967 comments I love Radio Silence so much!

I've just woken up and am going to read for an hour before getting my reviews up :) No plans today so hoping to get my three current reads completed


message 391: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Sounds like a great day Dannii! I planned to read a lot myself today, but that didn't quite happen. I'm around 20% into Daughter of Smoke and Bone, and 30% into Radio Silence which I hope to finish tomorrow.


message 392: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
Amazing Dannii those points will be so good! 40% into Radio Silence, should finish up tomorrow.


message 393: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9967 comments I've uploaded all my reviews now :) If I can complete my two current reads but tonight I'll be happy but am not far into either so I'll have to read like crazy in order to do so!


message 394: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9967 comments My maths isn't the best so may be wrong but I think Royal Leipers are only 3 points ahead of us now, excluding crystal points.


message 395: by Tiera (new)

Tiera McMillian (hawtmess) | 3419 comments I have no idea where we are at.. but I'mma have to take a review break all my reviews are starting to sound the same. Still have several more to review. Sorry I've been so swamped. It takes me like 20-40 minutes to write a review sometimes especially when its an ARC and I have to blog post as well as review on ARC site and Amazon so I'm totes behind. Sorry again. I'll get caught up hopefully later but i need a break. Gonna go read something and drink more coffee lol.


message 396: by Leah (new)

Leah | 2629 comments I added Master and Apprentice (Star Wars) by Claudia Gray for tagged "Sci-Fi".


message 397: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
I don't know how you can write such detailed reviews each time Tiera XD It's inspiring! I need to write better reviews for my review copies!


message 398: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
I've got a 4hr in the car either tomorrow or Thursday, so I'll have plenty of audio time then!

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53781 comments Mod
@Shar @Courtney: We're going to use this thread now, as the other one is starting from Book 2 and we want to start from Book 1.
