Kind of maybe? I'm really not sure? I'll try and find a specific one? (No guarantees though...)

Um.....you may only challenge 2 people. So if you already challenged one, only one more. I was wondering, Jay, though, could we maybe wait for if anyone wants to challenge someone else? If somebody is left without someone to challenge them (odd number, like right now) instead of me challenging them, you can, ok?

Wait, it comes 2 weeks after July 27th??? XD I'm terrible at reading things.

And we'll probably have 3 weeks to read our books? (Assuming we don't all get obsessed with our books and binge read them and finish in 1 day XD)

I think Overdrive is a branch from Libby?


Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg (73687) Yup! I've used Overdrive! (Mostly during quarantine when I couldn't go to a library :(. )


message 67: by Eva The Dinosaur (new)

Eva The Dinosaur Ok so Bee it might take me a month to get the book because it is checked out everwhere. Even online!!

Kk, cool :)

If everyone is getting it early, I might move up the reading date to Wed, June 17th.


message 75: by [deleted user] (new)

There is 4 peeps left that signed up! Hopefully we can get a cross balance so 2 challenge each other and the other 2 of the 4 do the same.

Phoenix (Books with Wings) Woah! I'm glad I checked my library now to see if they have this book because there's 48 people who have placed holds on it and they only have five copies. I might not get this for a while...we'll see.

Oh WOW!!!!! Daaaaang!!! Hopefully u can get it in time. If not, no worries. It's still a book and you can read whatever whenever (if your library lets u get it at all XD ahah)


message 79: by smile (new)

smile (smileyfox) Whew! That’s a big series!

No, I'll still read it! It turns out that sometimes people back out of holds and stuff....I'm pretty sure I'm now #33 on 5 instead of #42 on 5.

Also I'm actually really thankful you gave me a book suggestion that has a long hold line because I'm currently really bogged down in books. So thank you, actually.


Phoenix (Books with Wings) Me too!!!

Hey Lunaria! Ok, CHALLENGE TIME!!!

I challenge you to read one of these three books. Kalahari, The Neptune Project, or The Green Glass Sea. I love all of them and have read them over at least five times each!

If you don’t want to read any of them, let me know and I’ll think of something else!

Have fun reading! -O

Monique Okay, well, it seems I lost track of my days and didn't realize what day it was until I got the email saying I should challenge someone... blame it on exams. My brain is fried!

And so, I challenge Sushie (if still available to challenge, I cant remember who else's name was on the list of people left)
I have no Idea what books are to your taste, so I will give several, and of course, you don't have to read any! I am just throwing together a few randoms that you may or may not be interested in at all =)

So, for those you posted that were sequels in the series, does it matter which I read first?

For those books, you can read in whatever order you like. They are part of a series, but also written as standalone, so it doesn't matter if you want to read only one book, or the series, it will still make sense =)

Okay, I accept. But is it fine if I accept the first book in the series Child of the Prophecy? It's sort of a pet peeve of mine XD
Also, I'm only accepting that series because it's available, but I want to read the others sometime as well.
Thanks for the challenge, Monique!

That is fine =) I prefer full series too, I just put that book instead as the first two are a bit more violent. (the violence is not that bad, but it is there, so just a warning. It is the typical fantasy sort of book in that regard)

The series is called The Sevenwaters Trilogy (thought it actually is six books in the series, yet they still call it a trilogy for some reason!) and the first book is Daughter of the Forest https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Okay, sounds good!


message 99: by [deleted user] (new)

Kk, so I put down that Sushie has been challenged to read the first book in the Sevenwaters Trilogy (Daughter of a Forest)


message 100: by [deleted user] (new)
