Courtney | 16160 comments Yeah after that last manga I am done forcing myself to finish something. That was terrible!

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
Well technically it's a long month XD Leap Year.

I'm forcing myself right now to try and start and finish The Last Wish (Witcher #0.5) by tomorrow evening when bf Blake and I watch more tv.. Wish me luck! At least I've got a buddy for it! Then I'll be diving into the second short story collection

Courtney | 16160 comments I tried commenting on the thread to read it with you but its being stupid. Lol Can I read Last Wish and not be confused by whats going on. My husband has been wanting me to get into the series for a while.

And I need those extra two days. Lol

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
Yeah the thread's being stupid for me, I had to link the thread to Lily. And I'm hoping that it'll stop the confusion of the show for me. Because fml I'm so loooost. I figure it can't hurt.. The first season contains short stories from The Last Wish as well as the other short story collection, so I'm racing through them if I can.

Courtney | 16160 comments I asked my husband, and he said it has been to long and he doesnt remember haha. I cant jump in right away, but I will probably be jumping in :)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
Sounds good to me! I'm not sure the pace of Lily anyway. I'm just going to speed XD It surely can't hurt, I'm too confused with the show as it is.

Jill | 3313 comments Hi!!!! Thank you all for your sweet comments. We are adjusting and finally getting into a little routine. I haven't been able to read much, but now getting more comfortable with things. I've been reading It Ends With Us, so I hope to finish that soon. It's hard for me to audio anymore cus I always have some type of background noise for the baby and its hard to have both going at the same time. My goal is to finish 3 more books.


message 208: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
Yeah that's tough. It Ends With Us is great though <3 Any CoHo is incredible.

I'm 21% into Last Wish, and today I'm going to read more of The Places I've Cried In Public. I need to just get through books I've started -_-

I'm going to go and read some manga now and watch some Witcher. I know I said I was going to read physical, but manga's quicker to get letters, and I'm going to take advantage of having time now while I can.

Ashleigh | 3391 comments @Maddie have you managed to get The Birthing House from the library yet? I would have text you but I'm at work now so doing this from my work computer haha.


message 213: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod

And nope, it just became available yesterday, so I'll get through three manga today and go and pick it up!

One more manga to claim another letter. And these are the medium scores. We're insanely close to falling into third place.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
Hey all! How's the reading going :)

I'm not sure how much more I'll get read before I start work, as I'm going to get my nails done today, then go and buy a suit jacket, and then heading to boyfriend's for the weekend.


message 216: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
We are 4 points ahead of Bulbasaur.. I'm not doing much reading this weekend sorry. But I will be doing some manga


message 217: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16160 comments Sorry guys I have been real busy lately and havent had a chance to read anything. I am hoping to find some time today :)


message 218: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
I'm sorry I didn't get on last few days, I just couldn't bring myself to get on today because I'm just stressing out so much for my first day of proper work tomorrow. I've felt gross all day, so worked up, and now I have to try and sleep. I honestly have no idea when I'm going to be on next, I have no idea how work's going to go. I hope things are going well with you guys!


message 219: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
Thanks! First day wasn't so great, second day was better. Hopefully they continue getting better! But I am doing no reading at all.


message 220: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
I'll do a little bit of reading now. How it is that I feel like powering through a fantasy book.. I can hardly keep my eyes open, but for some reason I want to, so I'm going to pick up Sorcery of Thorns again. I've got to finish that by the 25th for liveshow which I just remembered about. I'll try and do some on the train in the morning as well!


message 221: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 3391 comments Right, I'm pulling my finger out and getting stuck into my books. Currently got 8 on the go (this is fine.. I'm not worrying.. much) so I want to finish all 8 before the end of the month!


message 222: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53773 comments Mod
Oh wow! Go you! I've got about 10 I believe and I'm going to try and finish 1 or 2 :p I'm just freaking out right now. Boyfriend troubles. But it'll turn out the way it will, and I can only do my best


message 223: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 3391 comments Sending hugs your way Maddie!

Hello Team Eevee, just to let you know that I've split up Team Squirtle as they weren't doing very well. Because of this, Ashleigh and Quirks will now be joining your team. I've let them know that they're moving, and I'll transfer their points which they've already earned over to your review thread, someone will just need to work out what letters to use them for ☺
Ashleigh I'm sorry that I had to add someone with the same name as you to your team, I just couldn't find another way to do it. I'll mark the new Ashleigh as Ashleigh2 on the review thread so that hopefully we don't get confused xx


message 225: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 3391 comments No worries Sarah! Welcome Ashleigh and Quirks!


message 226: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 3391 comments Sarah left a comment on the review thread with Ashleigh and Quirks' books and asked us to allocate them to letters so I've gone ahead and done that as below, and it completes another line for us.

Hearts and Thorns - A
Blood Oath - Y
Shadow Wings - E
Black Crown - Y
Red, White & Royal Blue - E
Rebel - A
Spencer Cohen & Changing the Rules - P

message 231: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16160 comments Hey everyone! Sorry I havent been active tk much lately. The end of the month has gotten real busy for me, but I am still hoping for 3 to 4 more books by the end of the month.

Sounds good! I'm hoping to finish a book or two this weekend as I've got no plans and it's a long weekend. But I will also just be relaxing after my first week of work.

I'm 57% into Sorcery of Thorns, will finish tomorrow. I'm so tired, sleep time for me! I'm looking forward to waking up at 8.30 or 9 without an alarm and having it be a sleep in! It's so exciting, and then being able to watch yt and read all day. I cannot wait. I'd also like to get Curse So Dark and Lonely finished up this month so I can read Fierce and Broken when it arrives!

message 243: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16160 comments I am hoping to start Call Down the Hawk soon, but I dont know if I can get to it this month.

Also I am 40% into my audio and just finished a poetry book. I do need to read one more before I can post it though. I should have all day today and tomorrow to read so I am hoping I can catch up.
