[Victorian Vickie]

I have books to add....Do I still have time?

[Jenny]

We have until next week!!!!!!! Add away...

Any ideas for a good audiobook? Hopefully available without holds from a public library

[Jenny]

I can give you some good ideas. What are you in the mood for?

[[deleted user]]

Something along the lines of fantasy of fiction

[Jenny]

Give me a sec.

[Jenny]

OK, none of these are brand new, so hopefully there will not be a queue at the library.

[[deleted user]]

Thank you

[Jenny]

I went through the spreadsheet and there are a couple of books listed as done that are not on people's shelves. When you all get a chance, can you please check your shelves please?

I also started to go through the tasks that weren't assigned yet and found some workable ones. I kind of like the scavenger hunt aspect, so I will try to find more later.

Finished my next book

I realized I hadn't shelved a few, but I think I've got them all fixed/updated now! Thanks for your help! Finding tasks is fun for this last round because I don't need to worry about "saving" anything for the future rounds.

I have finished a couple of books and updated the sheet hoping to finish Midnight Sun tonight for another challenge, it's been hard going. Whilst there are some things I am learning from Edwards perspective for the first time, the rest is all quite repetitive and very slow to actually get into details of his feelings instead of events that have happened ie the car park incident.

I have also found a couple more X books on my kindle so will get them added.

[Jenny]

Too bad. I was hoping that Midnight Sun would be better than it sounds. Oh well.

Me too, I was a mad Twilight fan back in the day, I even sat in the cinema when Breaking Dawn Part 2 came out and watched them all back to back. It was an enjoyable read, but not what I was hoping for.

[Jenny]

We are down to the last few days of Wheel. We have done really well thus far, and this week we are a little behind our pace, but not by much.

Kate, you haven't put any books down on the sheet yet, do you plan to read some this week?

Also, a lot of you seem to be reading the BOM Spin the Dawn. If you haven't looked into it yet, it is a quick fun read.

Have fun with the last bit of the challenge!!!!

[Jade aka MrsTosh]

I am going to start Spin the Dawn later, will finished all my books this week, hopefully can fit a few smaller ones in too.

[[deleted user]]

hoping to get two more books read

[bamaace83]

Oh don't worry, I have books, now where to make them all fit, I'll work on that tonight. I should have at least 5-6 to add by Friday.

[Angie ☯]

This word doesn't play well with the Olympics challenge at all!! Lol

[Jenny]

My brain is so confused right now. I have started about 6 books, and since several of them are from the nautical list from Turf, I keep getting the storylines confused! Silly.
I am finishing a really weird and fantastic book right now- Qualityland. I so want to recommend this one to all, but it is deeply weird, and I'm not sure it is everyone's taste.
Ooh. Michelle Obama is about to speak...got to go!

[Angie ☯]

I like weird!! I'll add it to my TBR!

My brain is just confused!! Lol!!

[Celia]

Looks right up my alley too, Jenny. TBR'd.

[Celia]

Argh, I want day 3 of the Spin the Dawn DQs so I can finish the book... lol

[Jenny]

Yeah, I think I will finish it tonight anyway. But, it is nice to get the questions and not get ahead.

[Jenny]

Hey everyone!
We have just over one day left in this challenge. Please check that your books are entered on the spreadsheet, and on your Wheel shelves when they are finished.
If you all need help finding tasks, I will be playing a bit with the spreadsheet later today.

We seem to have lost Kate this last week, so if you all have last minute books you can finish, don't be shy. And remember for those of you reading the BOMs to have at least three days of participations to link up.

[[deleted user]]

Don't think I'll finish anymore after all

[Jenny]

No worries, Slytherpuff, you have been a champ!

[[deleted user]]

Thank you. I've gotten distracted by other things

[Angie ☯]

Anna - you read Pachinko....were you going to do the DQs?

[Kelly]

Last book marked as finished! 😊

[bamaace83]

Oh man! I’ll do those this morning. I also have some last minute books to add this morning. Work has been super crazy but I’ll make that happen.

[Jade aka MrsTosh]

I have marked everything I have read, I am on with another book at the moment but not sure I will finish it in time. If I do will add it on to the sheet.

[Teasha]

I finished my two books and added them to spreadsheet.

[Kate]

Am adding one more this morning and then should have everything in!

[bamaace83]

I added two more books. The last one I added I don't have a task left for. I used a bunch of tasks! I also answered my questions and fixed that.

[Jenny]

Ha! I found a task for your last book, Anna. According to TinEye, it is a brown cover.

I cleaned up the incorrect tasks on the spreadsheet, so the only thing still highlighted is my last book, Betty, which will be done before I head to work in an hour or so.

[Kate]

Last book in!

[Jenny]

I'm done too!

I have to recommend .
Holy crap, was this a good book!

[Alissa]

I’m adding my last book now.

Great job team! It was so much fun playing with y'all. Awesome, thanks for finding that final task for me. I look forward to playing with y'all again. Now, back to these crazy Olympics and TurfWars. Whew!

[Jenny]

It has been an honor and a privilege playing with all of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope we all meet again in future challenges. We did well together.

And thank you Angie for being such a kick ass co-captain!

[Angie ☯]

It was great playing with all of you - this is one of, if not THE best teams I've been on! Thanks to everyone for making it fun and for kicking butt with the words!

Thank you, Jenny - it's easy to be a co-captain with a great captain!!

I'm reading my oxford year and I'm laughing out loud

[Jenny]

I'm so glad you are liking it. I loved that book!
