Finished my third book last night. Finally, I can tell that I'll be picking up speed.
This book is much better so I should get it done tonight. Thank God we have one more day. I need some decent reading time. I've been working out so lost some hours but I do need to shift some weight.
Sorry guys I didn't read at all today, had a headache for most of the day. I'll try to read something now and tomorrow I'll hopefully be back on track
The book I'm reading now I'm really into. I'm flying through it. Should have it done by tomorrow.
@Jamie @Mummy I hope you didn’t mind that I got in you BR of Concealed too, are you planning on reading the second book on the series as well?
Anytime Luisa you can crash brs! :). We don’t have a date yet but yes either later this month or next month.
73% through Crooked Kingdom. Should finish it today or tomorrow. It depends on how busy I am today. Will most definitely post review tomorrow.
That feels better. I've gotten a few books done now. Still need to find a book that wows me. I'm struggling at the moment all the books I'm reading are okay but nothing special.
Well, I should have it done by today...@Mummy - Are there any books you are highly anticipating?
Finished my book. Disappointing. I can't catch a break. I'm going to read Serpent & Dove. If this doesn't work out I'm going to move on to manga and anything not YA...
@Adriana not really but I'm buddy reading a lot of the same sort of books with someone so I think I need to find something different to read inbetween the buddy to refresh.
@Mummy - Yeah, that might be it. Finally read a fantasy after reading a bunch of contemporaries. I finally found a great book!
Finished Crooked Kingdom. If I can get on the computer now, my sister is using it to do homework, then my review will be up in a few minutes. Starting The Rest of the Story by Sarah Dessen. Should be a quick read. Plan to finish it by Tuesday at the earliest and Thursday at the latest.
Put The Rest of the Story for the letter Y.
So my dog just chewed up the book I've been reading. Ugh. Luckily it is still legible but it was a signed copy. GRRR.. Was stuck away from almost all day yesterday but I did read a short book I had in my car. Will post it tomorrow.

We will have the 3rd board finished today. I have a few reviews to post.
Great job! I am off tomorrow (well today but since I haven't slept yet...) so hoping to get some good reading in finally.
Enjoy Jamie. I'm listening to audio books while trying to complete a huge safeguarding task for college. I just need to stay focused but its not going well at the moment lol.
55% through The Rest of the Story. Plan to push through tomorrow (when I have free time) and finish the book. Hopefully.
Can you put on the board Field Notes on Love by Jennifer E. Smith for N and 99 Days by Katie Cotungo for Y? These are my next books. I promise I will straighten out my BR thread problem tomorrow, so I can claim those points. Thanks! 🙂

@Mummy I am surprised you are going serious next month! Time for a change of pace? I am going to miss you on medium. Oh well. Guell we'll just have to make the best of this month. :)
I thought I better make the change before Sarah has to get mean with me. although I love you guys it's not really fair for the other teams. I might slow down and be back soon. don't worry I'll come and chat still. Some of those serious teams don't talk at all and that'll drive me crazy. I'll probably just spend the month talking to myself on the thread.

You can also ask to be on someone's team you know will be chatty. :D
I feel bad for how quiet I have been lately. Last week was crazy but now I get to go back to normal semi-chatty self.
Finished The Rest of the Story. Started Field Notes on Love. Will start 99 Days tomorrow. I'm so overrun by school that I'm literally tired all the time. Luckily, I can still read of I'm tired, but still. I'm not usually chatty, anyways, but I do like reading what people post on the thread.
Thanks for the update Carolyn. And you do help chat some. I am a lot less chatty when I have a lot going on or am tired myself. And if my anxiety is high I go quiet. But you always keep us in on what you are reading and how it is going and that is great!!
Good news! I have no school today! It's a 4 day weekend, which means lots of reading. My plan is to focus solely on 99 Days today and Sunday and focus solely on Field Notes on Love tomorrow and Monday. By Monday, I should have two books finished and then will begin on Renegades.
Good news! I posted my updated BR posts for Crooked Kingdom and posted my review for Tye Rest of the Story. 32% through 99 Days.

YAY! Got you updated on the SS :)
I have a long weekend too. I am doing an unofficial 24in48 readathon on twitter with some friends. #24in48forever or #not24in48 if anyone else is interested. To try for an extra push.
90% through Field Notes on Love. I'll finish it and post tonight. I was stressing that I wasn't going to get through with this before Monday, then I laid down on the couch, and look where I am now. Almost done. 🙂
Posted my review for Field Notes on Love.
Can you put Renegades by Marissa Meyer for R? I'm going to start it as soon as I'm done with 99 Days.
Carolyn wrote: "Can you put Renegades by Marissa Meyer for R? I'm going to start it as soon as I'm done with 99 Days."Do you mind if we use it for E instead? We have R covered and in progress already for a couple boards.
sorry guys I've been busy. I have still been reading but I haven't gotten on my laptop to get things sorted. I have about 4 or 5 books to post. My son has swimming this morning then we are going to the panto. I'll be able to get everything up to date this evening.
So I noticed we didn't get credit for a couple letters as I was tidying up the SS. So I commented on it on our review thread. Got my reviews posted for the books I finished this weekend.Now reading:
32% Buddy Read
Just started, Buddy read
50% via audiobook.Once I finish The Two towers, I hope to get to
which is another buddy read.
I think we lost Wendigo. Has had no activity at all this year and was new to goodreads. :( Not sure if we should leave the spots or clear them on the SS...
Mod
Mod
I'm doubting that Wendigo will be joining in, they have zero books on their profile by the looks ☹
Welcome Rebecca! We have a spreadsheet linked on the first post of this thread if you want to please add any books you have read. We are working on boards 5, 6 and about to start 7. Find any blank spots that work best for you.
If you don't or can't use the SS let us know what you have read and/or are reading and we can add them for you. :)
Welcome to the team!!
I pulled Wendigo's 2 books off the SS. If they come back we can re-add them in but I don't want to hold up spots this late.
With the new team changes scores are CLOSE! We got to step it up to hold our lead now.
And looks like they still have to allocate letters, so they could easily take the leads. Yikes!
I have posted my 4 reviews so hopefully that helps. Sorry a crazy few days but I'm Back now lol. Welcome Rebecca, it's a shame the team got split but welcome pull up a chair and enjoy a good book lol.
Mummy & Luisa I won't have time this month to get to
but would like to continue next month if either or both of you are interested, let me know when is best. :)
