AWESOME, VIANVAMP! :)

CONGRATULATIONS FOR SURVIVING.

Let us know if you are suffering from book-PTSD.

We can talk about it. :)

Melindam | 8527 comments Sorry for being incommunicado in the last 2 days, but my phone suddenly died on me and I was also out of office yesterday (not that I'm doing any goodreads-stuff there, of course!).

message 2016: by Melindam (new)

Melindam | 8527 comments Fantastic reading as always, Ladies!

We have read 26 books so far. Question is, can we bring it up to a maximum of 45?

We may or may not win the Avarice prize (highest number of books read- Team Lust is ahead of us there and it may stay that way), but currently we are at 1st place for the LUST-prize. :)


message 2017: by Melindam (new)

Melindam | 8527 comments I can switch to reading 2-3 shorter books by tomorrow, instead of finishing the longer one.


message 2018: by Stacie (new)

Stacie (thesebooksaremyfriends) I'm going to read like a banshee today until my Ikea delivery comes and then it's couch assembly time. I'll do my best to get some more books done by tomorrow! We're an awesome team.

Seconded, Stacie! Team Sloth has been great through & through. :)

Hope U have fun with the Ikea-assembling. ;)


message 2020: by Stacie (new)

Stacie (thesebooksaremyfriends) It's an entire three piece sectional. We plan to put on movies to ease the pain. Cat wrangling will be the "fun" part because one of them will insist on investigating all of it. But with 26 boxes, we might be required by law to build a fort after.

You are the real MVP. I would never, ever consider assembling anything from IKEA. I'm useless like that 😂

Stacie (thesebooksaremyfriends) We live about a mile from one and with the weird doorways and stuff from our old old house, Ikea has just become our go to LOL. plus a sectional delivered for $1350? yeah I'll put it together lol. more like I'll watch my husband...

I've been down with migraine for the most part of today so I haven't gotten much reading done. So I'll never be able to finish Kushiel's Dart before the deadline :-(

I'll switch to something shorter instead with Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor (Friday Harbor, #1) by Lisa Kleypas .
