for sure! them and Keith Richards lol

I read and loved Nikki Sixx's Heroin Diaries, and I've wanted to read this for ages. Needless to say my sister is AWESOME for getting this for me :) I think I'm gonna get the other two books in the Croak series plus the World of Ice and Fire with my Amazon card :D

omgggggggg and I got a gorgeous new laptop!! can't wait to go home and play with it!


message 413: by Tara (new)

Tara | 1259 comments Very nice!! And I think Keith Richards is dead...he certainly looks like the living dead, right?! I haven't read Nikki Sixx's book...may need to check that one out.

I would definitely recommend Heroin Diaries. He's got another one called This is Gonna Hurt, but it's more a book of his photography rather than a memoir (also good).

I marathoned the TV show a couple months ago on Netflix and LOVED it. I'm pretty sure that's exactly why my mom got the book for me. I love football

Erin | 376 comments Just to let the group know I'm leaving tomorrow morning to go skiing for a week with my family and I'm bringing my computer so I'll have some internet access but it will probably be sporadic and most likely at nights or in the mornings

For the game/challenge, the color tasks needed to be a majority color....any books mostly purple?!

Erin, did we ever get a ruling on Maplecroft (The Borden Dispatches #1) by Cherie Priest for purple or do we still need purple?

I couldn't find the post for the tasks we have done...when you have a moment could you post the link? Just want to check if I can add anything more if needed.

Thanks!

Andrea (angleisthebest) | 105 comments I can do a reread of Dragon Slippers Box Set
Is it purple enough?

Andrea (angleisthebest) | 105 comments The book has 321

Looks like that may work...but I think we may have had o e someone planned so you don't have to reread.

when we see the list of what's left, that could be good...I think at last look we were pending good boy/girl and/or bad boy/girl. So if you have anything to read (Or if any you have read) could count as a good or bad boy or girl that would work. I have one on my TBR but not planning to read it until mid january so if we could get that one earlier that is good!

Thanks for jumping right in Hope!


message 444: by Andrea (new)

Andrea (angleisthebest) | 105 comments What about Allegiant I have not completed the book yet (I have 250 pages left to read although I started the book back in October, would that count?)

If it does not count I could read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens it also has the boy/girl.

It's fine that you started prior to the November start date of the challenge...most of us started a book before then and just waited to finish after the November date! I've not read the books at all, so your call on the good/bad character!

Great!

Sorry I kept forgetting to ask but I just posted and I will tell y'all as soon as I get a response


message 449: by Erin (new)

Erin | 376 comments As for what is left:

1 good/bad boy/girl book
The last fix the chimney book with has to start with a T and end with a P, Ari had a book that would fit but if someone else finishes one first that fits it doesn't matter who reads it
1 book between 100 and 125 pages long

And if Maplecroft passes for purple then that's it


message 450: by Tara (new)

Tara | 1259 comments Awesome! So Hope, this what we have.
