Done! Sorry about that. :)

[Sonia]

Good Morning Team Deathly!!!

*snickers*

It's all Cat's fault, just saying

Anyway, I did something weird last night... I went to sleep without a book. Sure, I already have read 2 during the day (they were under 200 pages each, so no special event), but even so, I felt it odd... must be the heat,

Temps today are cooler... weather says we're only going to reach 28 ºC *rolls eyes*

I wanted to read one more for this round, but have no clue what to read. I usually go for adult Urban Fantasy or smutty MM Romance.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks

don't have much in the way of recommendations, but if you happen to have one with a X, V or I, N, that would be awesome, lol!

[Sonia]

Lemme check what I got

[Sonia]

Oh and you can always use Artemis Fowl for V or X.... it's currently being used for a S. I think it was the reason I forced myself to listening to it on the first place, because it fit almost all letters.

[Sammy]

Yeah, we'll shuffle things around as needed if it comes to it. we're close to having everything we need though, so that's something at least :)

[Sammy]

UGH! I've only 27 pages left in my book, but can't bring myself to finish it right now.
I think it says all it needs to that right now I think I'd rather go clean something than finish reading this book, lol.

[Sonia]

Okay, so, got a X book that works also for N, and since Xavier Mayne's books usually are quick reads, I also have some Piper Vaughn's on the waiting list if needed.

*waves bye*

Have fun!

[Sonia]

Sammy, thank you. If you didn't suggest the letters, I wouldn't find this book. And it's so sweet... I am loving it

Yay! so glad!

And I finally finished Raft. as soon as I'm done with my happy dance I'm finding a cozy corner with Mr King.

[Sonia]

Ahahahhahahahha

[Sammy]

I can't decide if this is blue or green...

It's apparently 55.8% of whichever colour it is (the evil site that shall not be named calls it blue, but I'm not convinced, lol).

[Sonia]

That's turquoise...or teal...or cyan...or whatever

LOL

[Sammy]

Yeah, which is blue to some people and green to others and I am completely and utterly unable to commit to either, lol.

[Sonia]

Yeah, I get your point. I usually pick a different category to fit those kinds of books... because colour is... not something I can deal with

[Sammy]

Yeah, I was starting to lean that way too. I figured I'm only going to read around 40 out of 200 possible books, so it's not like I'll be desperate to fill stuff :)

A girl after my own heart

[Rokkan]

I managed to finish The Black Book. It's... not exactly awful, just not my cup of iced tea.

Also managed to whizz through White Silence by Jodi Taylor - much more my kind of book! Unfortunately not a book that fits with X, V, I or N but... I might be able to find a short book to help there.

It looks more green to me. If that helps

Oh Alison a heads up I changed my avatar again 😂

No worries. We can always switch a book that can cover it and use your book in its place ☺

[☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎]

Random question but does anyone know of a book that celebrates World Ocean Day?

[Plethora]

I'm one of those that leans towards it being green, but my daughter always calls that blue. So that is just one of those colors for sure that goes back and forth.

Sometimes I think it also depends on what you but it next to since it will bring out the blue or green shades more.

And yes that site is EVIL..lol

Also have to be over 200 pages. They just have to mention celebrating World Ocean Day in the text.

We both have that task and somehow ideally we need two different books that we actually need to read in the next 6 days..lol
we both have actually basically written off being able to fulfill this task.

[☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎]

Hahahaha yup it's just challenging task that I've never heard of but I guess it's a first for everything 😉

[Eni]

I have a bone to pick with you guys!!! You have a cheating member!!!!!
She claimed she was oh so tired... She claimed she didn't have time to read, only during weekends!!!! She signed up for 5 books a month!!!! However, she's been sneakily reading at work, stays up late to ungodly hours (she usually is asleep by 11pm but lately she's been reading until 1 or 2am) and she's read 12 books. 12!!!!!!

*Throws rotten tomatoes at Sonia*

Shame on you for making me think I could read at least as much as you during this challenge!!! You suck!!!

(Just for those who don't get that I'm joking. This post is purely for fun. Sonia's my sister and she is not cheating.)

Yeah, we know. Funny how Wheels Sonia can't show up during Tower Teams when she's on my team, right Eni? LOL!!!

She hates us both Steven :(

Alison please add a date to "When Beauty Tamed the Beast" Thanks"

I think all mine, except my current read, are set, with shelf, read, and tags.

I don't think it's hate. I think it's just... the obligation ruined it for her. Too much pressure LOL

And yet we still kicked some serious backside during that challenge. ;)

I can only imagine what we'll do with Sonia at full reading strength, lol.

[Alison (Lady Coffin)]

So, question

Do we have a countdown clock to the end of the round?
I have completely lost track of when stuff is due. Today? Tomorrow? Did not see one in the rules thread or first page of this one.

[Plethora]

I meant to post, but I wanted to change the official one before I posted because the official timer is when we cappies have to have the spreadsheet done. Not when your reading is to end, so I was going to move it back about an hour.

It is Friday though so plenty of time for 5 more books by Sonia.

lol!
Ok Friday, got it.
Do I remember correctly it is something like 5pm Eastern? 2pm Pacific?

[Sammy]

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, we hope you are all enjoying your journey so far. just a reminder that the buffet cart is fully stocked and our excellent staff is eager to help you enjoy your journey to the fullest.

Now I know we were nearing Hogwarts, but we figured it was far too soon for this trip to be over, so we've decided to go on another little detour, and as you can see we are just passing through the Channel Islands (In fact, I suspect our latest stowaway may have knocked us off course in this particular direction...). Just coming up on our left is Jersey, well known for its beaches and magnificently built castles...





I hope you'll all enjoy the view, and don't mind the delayed arrival at Hogwarts too much... ;)

[Sammy]

(Apologies to Steven. I know this was meant to make you feel better, but I suspect it may inadvertently cause your temperature to rise again. Sorry, not sorry)

lol!
Not that I know for sure, but just suspect, he will gladly accept a fever for this view.
I know I am not minding.

[Mandiann]

Alright. I think that is it for me for this round. I am working on an E title but it is unlikely I will finish it by this time tomorrow.

[☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎]

Hi Eni! *waves* It’s been quite awhile since I’ve see the two sisters bantering. I miss those moments. Hahaha

Hi Steven. Glad you’re well and feeling better

[Elena]

Magnificent is the word! Thank you, Sammy :)


Hi Eni! Hello Steven! So glad to hear you're better and great to see you both!

[Elena]

I finished Five Feet Apart and it works for N if we still need it

Hi Carmen! *Waves back* she still hasn't seen this lol xD but she had a headache today and she ended up going to sleep earlier. I may try to misplace her kindle tomorrow! But she can also read on her phone...and she needs her phone to work 🤔🤔🤔

[☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎]

Aww sorry she has a headache. Those aren't fun. I hate those for sure but Eni I think you may have a problem with trying to get her to slow down reading. Hahahaha

[Sonia]

First of all, I didn't signed for 5 books a month, it was 10.

But if it is so important to you, sure, I'll slow down the number of books.... I just need to pick 600 pages books instead of 200 ones.

[Sonia]

And BTW, touch my kindle and I *will* hurt you.

I have Five Rivers Met on a Wooded Plain as an N book. I should be able to finish it - the first few pages are beautifully written and easy to get into - but you can switch it out for Five Feet Apart for the certain word completion points.
