Count on Team Two!

[Katrisa]

I finished 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in This Strange World.
Still listening to Nine Pints: A Journey Through the Money, Medicine, and Mysteries of Blood. It is really interesting too! For instance I found out that there are still legit medical uses for leeches! Who knew?

I am going to start The Forty Rules of Love as my next fiction book because I enjoyed 10 min 38 secs.

So, when on Saturday does the toppler end?

[Casceil]

I have finished Death of an Art Collector: A Nero Wolfe Mystery (The Nero Wolfe Mysteries Book 14).Death of an Art Collector. It's 240 pages, published May 14th, 2019. I'll figure out its numbers tomorrow.

I have also started one more book, Witch Summer Night's Cream, 465 pages, published May 22, 2017. I hope to finish it by the end of the toppler.

Katrisa, it ends the same time as it started :)

Like I end the same time I started? Because I realized that I may have started at the wrong time. I started at noon my time (MT) but I saw yesterday when I looked that it said ET so should I stop at 10 MT or noon when I started?

[Peggy]

In that case I think I would stop at noon. The idea is to read for the toppler to last exactly 1 week, so if you accidentally started at the wrong time, I would end at the wrong time too.

For me the toppler started 6pm last Saturday, so it ends 6pm tomorrow.

Book 3 was a quickie!

That was my last one though, I won't be able to get another done in the next 25 hours.

Ok, it's getting down to the wire so I decided to not go ahead with 40 rules of love because I won't be able to finish it. I am almost done with Nine Pints so I looked for a shorter book even if it doesn't have a number in the title to try and get one more book in before noon tomorrow. So I am changing out 40 Rules for
From Here to Eternity: Traveling the World to Find the Good Death

Finished The Tenth Island: Finding Joy, Beauty, and Unexpected Love in the Azores.
This is my last book for the toppler since I will not have time to finish another book.

Great work team!!

[Esther]

good morning team...

We are doing great. 3 rounds!!!!

I have finished my paper book and i have 20 minutes left of my audio. so it is a same bet that it will be done this am.

I have errands to run so will miss the toppler end but i`ll be back this pm.

Have a great end of toppler!!!!

Ah, thank you! I couldn't figure out where I had gotten the 1 from in my original notes lol

I am going to correct my post now :)

[Jessica]

I am at 80% of Second Nature so i'll be finished in about an hour and then I will post in the reporting thread.

[Jenn]

I just finished Ready Player One, and reported it. Sorry, it's a bit of a surprise bonus book, I really didn't expect to finish it lol, but it is good in a few different spots (and has a number in the title for the bonus points), so I hope that it can help fill a space somewhere :)

[Peggy]

There might be some late reporters, people who finished in time but haven't had time to report yet. I think Esther and Jessica both mentioned they were still reading books.

[Peggy]

Fantastic job everyone!

Esther has reported, but I haven't heard from Jessica. I will message her. Thanks for the heads up! I will delete my message with our final count and hold off reporting.

[Katrisa]

I am finished with Nine Pints and From Here to Eternity!
Thanks for being such a great team :)

[Esther]

i just looked at the score. Awesome!!! so many books read!!!

[Jenn]

Thanks for a great Toppler! For Esther and Jayme for taking on the Captains seat, for Peggy for keeping me in line, for the whole team for knocking out some big numbers - I actually managed to bump two off of my TBR (totally amazing lol) :) I hope everybody had a great week :)

[Peggy]

I agree with Jenn. You did a fantastic job captaining us Esther and Jayme!
