Np. I'm still finishing some of the novellas from the Mercy Thompson world and I have Scythe and the HP series to hold me over too. Plus I need to find my copies. They aren't available at the library so I have to physically search for them. :(

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9907 comments We're all doing so awesome guys :D

I'm just finishing off Ghostly Tales Spine-Chilling Stories of the Victorian Age (Books for Halloween, Ghost Stories, Spooky Book) by Chronicle Books and will jump into Tales of East Africa by Jamilla Okubo next. They are both illustrated and under 200 pages each so I will combine them with A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness to make them over the 600 pages needed to claim letters.

I have three small novellas I can binge through next and also combine together before hopefully finish off my current audio as well before the readathon is over.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Awesome Dannii!

I'll have a lot of reviews to catch up on tomorrow as well as catching up on the May BR thread before teams are made. I don't think I'll get much reading done tomorrow. :/

Jamie | 12271 comments Mmm, fresh sourdough!! Yum!


message 308: by Sarah A (new)

Sarah A (barrowerofbooks) | 1519 comments I have to do the same Anna with the reviews plus hoping my kids let me sleep for a couple hours tomorrow.


message 309: by Jamie (new)

Hears to hoping!

I also won't be able to sleep all day because I have my own fur baby. So I have to be awake to spend time with her and walk her etc. But I can more easily take long naps at least. ^_^

I think a lot of the teams will be getting a flood of reviews tomorrow and over the next 48 hours or so. At least it's not right at the end of the month for poor Sarah and Maddie. :)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9907 comments I was thinking how this readathon was going to make for a super stressful Monday for the poor mods! I hope you don't have too much to catch up on tomorrow, Anna.

I'm lucky that most of my reads were rereads which already had reviews written. That's all I had to do was write status updates so not many reviews to catch up on.


message 313: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments Right! I try to avoid a lot of reviews but the readathon bursts are so much fun! Luckily there is still time.

I think I'll have a fair few BR threads to update. Especially if teams go up tomorrow. ^_^ It'll be a nice break from doing my reviews.

That's lucky! I like to re-read too but I almost never to status updates. I really should but I just don't have the patience.

Thanks. It's nowhere near Sarah's. I did the math and basically we would have to add Maddie's, Abbie's and mine together to have a chance of having the most comments. lol.

message 320: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9907 comments Awesome!

I've posted all the reviews I read or finished off over the weekend. I'm going to focus on finishing off my four current reads before the end of the month and maybe get another audio or two in as well.


message 321: by HeatherH (new)

HeatherH (bkwrm85) | 2156 comments I have two audios going currently. I have 28 hours of work still before end of the month so should get both done and possibly a third lol.

message 323: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'm very frustrated right now. I own the entirety of this Poison Study (Study, #1) by Maria V. Snyder series and it's companion series and I can't find them! They are buried in my closet somewhere and are almost impossible to find.


message 324: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9907 comments Oh gosh that is annoying! I have books scattered in every room in the house so I can totally relate to this.

I hate when that happened. We moved 3 years ago and I still can't find one of my Harry Potter book. I keep telling myself I will found it one of these days.

Wow bookbuyer, you have a lot on your plate. I am going to try and finish one more book by the end of the month because my 3 kids are slowly killing me this week! I swear they are pushing all of my buttons!

It's really irritating. I actually have TWO copies of the first book and I can't find either.

I hope your HP book turns up! :)

My own fault. I have let too many things go and I need to catch up. :)

I'm sorry your kids are annoying you. Hopefully reading will help with that. ^_^


message 330: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I don't think I will get to Poison Study (Study, #1) by Maria V. Snyder this month Sarah. Can we re-start it for May?


message 331: by HeatherH (new)

HeatherH (bkwrm85) | 2156 comments I'll have two more done and reviewed by end of the month. I'll be midway on two book club reads so may get those up for page points at least.

Yeah we sure can, Do you want to do the end of the month?


message 333: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I'd prefer the beginning. I'm almost done Storm Glass (Glass, #1) by Maria V. Snyder and I like to binge series. I do have the first book on audio so I might resort to that if I can't find my copy. :)

I totally fine with that, I was just thinking you need time to find your copy.

I'll do a big clean on Friday and hopefully I'll find it then. If not I have the audio. ^_^


message 336: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments How about we start the 2nd or 3rd? Is that okay?


message 337: by Sarah A (new)

Sarah A (barrowerofbooks) | 1519 comments The 3rd works for me.

If you want to add the extra points, there is a buddy read thread that is active you can add some comments to! I think I'm the only one who read it all the way through this time but still!

Ohhhhh, I didn't realize earlier... But I reviewed it already so I don't think the br points would count anyway :(
