message 411: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 12 comments Ok question, I read the one I'm the election series, and the one represents the royal family, so would this be ok to use for royal name, I know it's not king or queen but I was just wondering, and if not could I use the small short story of the series called the prince? It wasn't very long

22. Something to readLetters from Yellowstone 1/23


message 423: by Megan (new)

Megan (lahairoi) | 7470 comments Just completed my selection for #2 - Number - First Frost by Sarah Addison Allen. Overall, I enjoyed this book. However, I found it very repetitious of the first Waverly novel. I understand some of that had to be explained for new readers, but not all of that was necessary. It was also a slow start. The charm and fantasy finally came through about 1/3 of the way in. Good ending. Worth reading. 3.5 stars

message 433: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments There's plenty of room! Welcome to the challenge, Leah.

I'm not participating in this particular challenge, but it seems like it would be more difficult than others. I think it requires a little more planning - it's less likely that a book you read for another reason will automatically count for this one.


message 434: by Reija (new)

Reija | 307 comments Updated message 57 with two books. It is hard to pick right category sometimes, if they fit many.. hopefully I picked right one.


message 435: by Rae (new)

Rae | 64 comments I swore out of the 4-5 series I plan to read I'd get more than half. Suddenly I'm looking at this list going uhhhhhh.....

message 439: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments Reija, I'm okay if you move the categories around later. If you find later that you'd rather have a book count for a different category, go ahead and just move it. The only rule is that one book can only count for one category.

Tiina (_tiina_) I would like to join! :)

Just wondering: I usually read books in Finnish and the title is not always translated literally. Which is more important in this challenge, the original title or the title of the translation? Or maybe I should only choose books with a literally translated title. What do you guys say?
