I just finished another Kate Daniels book, . I'm going to take 15) A book with a moon on the cover.

[Library]

I just read
for 8) A book with 200-299 pages. Next I'm reading for 45) The first book in a series if that's ok.

That's fine. I hope you enjoy the book.

[Library]

Thanks. I think we're doing really well here and in the Sweet Potato team.

Library wrote: "Thanks. I think we're doing really well here and in the Sweet Potato team."

We are doing very well :)

I just finished reading Shakespeare's Champion. The main character has a best friend who is a doctor, so I'm taking 54) A book with a doctor or nurse in its text.

[Library]

I just finished and used it for 13) A book with a single man on the cover. Next I'm going to do 16) A book with water on the cover with

[Library]

I just used for 48) A book that is part of a trilogy.

Next I'm doing for 12) A book with a single woman on the cover.

[Library]

I just used Around the World in Eighty Days for 38) A book with a number in the title

[Lanelle]

I just finished reading Magic Rises. I'm not sure which category I should put it in.

Which one do you think?
5) A fantasy/sci-fi novel
9) A book with 300-399 pages
42) A book published in the summer (June-September)
52) A book set outside the USA

[Library]

I think 42) A book published in the summer (June-September). I know I have books that will fit the other categories.

[Library]

If you're ok with it, I'm going to use for 2) A suspense novel.

[Lanelle]

Thanks for helping me 'decide' :)

Library wrote: "If you're ok with it, I'm going to use Fire Storm (Kaely Quinn Profiler #2) by Nancy Mehl for 2) A suspense novel."

That's fine.

[Library]

No problem. :) Are you ready for Thanksgiving?

[Library]

Hey! We're halfway done!

[Lanelle]

Library wrote: "No problem. :) Are you ready for Thanksgiving?"

There's really not much for me to do. It's just my son, my husband and me. I'd have to find a very small turkey unless I want lots of leftovers.

Child #1 - My oldest daughter and her family are in Texas but getting ready to move to Oklahoma.
Child #2 - My oldest son lives in Las Vegas and just got back from a deployment in Afghanistan. We'll drive over and visit him and his family this weekend. But they are going up to Utah to have Thanksgiving with her family.
Child #3 - My second son has autism and lives at home with us.
Child #4 - My second daughter lives in Virginia with...
Child #5 - ...my third daughter and her family. Too far away!!!
Child #6 - My fourth daughter lives in Utah and works Thanksgiving Day. Maybe we can convince her to come down the week after.

My older brother lives here in Phoenix but his family is even bigger than mine. No room at that inn :)

I guess I should look for people at Church that won't have someone to eat dinner with.

[Library]

I think they make small turkeys, unless you just wanna skip it. We'll probably be doing ours later because we're just a few people ourselves and want to go shopping. But that's really spread out, so I don't blame you if you just do something small.

[Lanelle]

Since you suggested that I use 42) A book published in the summer for the last book I read, I used 43) A book published in the fall for my next one, Death Is A Cabaret.

I can move it to a couple of other places if you'd like me to.

[Library]

That's fine with me. I'm going to use Saving Mona Lisa: The Battle to Protect the Louvre and Its Treasures During World War II for 51) A book set during a war. My next book Romanov I'm going to use for 52) A book set outside the USA, if that's ok.

Sounds good.

[Library]

Oh, and thanks for the books recs in the other thread, they sound really good. :)

I actually have one more for you. If you ever need a horror book for a reading challenge, try The Thing From the Lake by Eleanor M. Ingram. As a Christian, you'll love the ending.

[Library]

Oops! I accidentally posted my question in with the reviews. Sorry! I hope your trip was nice. :)

[Lanelle]

Jada, do you think there's enough of the man on this cover to qualify for
11) A book with a man and woman on the cover?

If not, it works for 1) A historical novel, 9) A book with 300-399 pages (338 pages),
44) A book published in the winter (published in December), and 47) A book that is not part of a series. Decisions, decisions :)

[Library]

I think yes, I can clearly see a man. :)

[Lanelle]

Awesome. I'll go report it for 11 then.

We're definitely slowing down, aren't we?

[Library]

We are, but I think it's because we don't have as many options, and they're getting a little harder to find.

[Lanelle]

Are there any categories that you might struggle to read for?

[Library]

Biblical fiction is not something I normally read. How about you? Anything hard for you?

[Lanelle]

Library wrote: "Biblical fiction is not something I normally read. How about you? Anything hard for you?"

Nothing hard, just not what I normally read.

I was thinking about re-reading The Bronze Bow for the Biblical fiction category. Have you heard of it?

[Library]

I have not. Is it good?

[Lanelle]

Library wrote: "I have not. Is it good?"

A couple of years ago, I needed a book with bronze on the cover or in the title for a reading challenge. I found The Bronze Bow. I read it and loved it. I convinced my in-real-life book club to read it, too :)

I highly recommend it.

[Library]

Only 7 more!

[Lanelle]

Library wrote: "Only 7 more!"

Yeah! The home stretch!

I've started reading for 59) A book with suitcase/luggage on the cover.

[Library]

The one I'm reading now will work for 1) A historical novel. :)

[Lanelle]

Library wrote: "The one I'm reading now will work for 1) A historical novel. :)"

Jada, are still working on this historical novel?

[Library]

Oops! No, I'm sorry, this got forgotten because of Christmas. I'll post it today!

[Lanelle]

No problem.

Just so you know, I've started reading Maybe Baby, which will work for 24) A book with a baby on the cover or in title.

[Lanelle]

I've finished and reported Maybe Baby. We are down to four categories to fill!

[Library]

Yay!

[Library]

I'm reading 2 books right now, and they will work for 4) A biblical fiction novel and 46) The last book in a series. :)

[Lanelle]

That's great! Then I'll take the last task with the bridge on the cover.

[Library]

Great! :) This was fun.

[Lanelle]

I just reported the last task! Yay!

[Library]

Woohoo!!

[Lanelle]

It feels good to be done, doesn't it? And just in time for the next challenge :)

[Library]

It does. :) That took a bit longer than I thought it would,
