No worries! These are the current scores. So much jumping! I'm 12% into AcoSF, it's so giant like 770 pages or something. I'm focusing that and Lore right now (550 pages) so who knows when I'll next finish something.

Heck yeah it's insane! One book can swap from last to first place!


message 105: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) I can't decide which one to pick up next...help???: When No One is Watching by Alyssa Cole or Shuri A Black Panther Novel by Nic Stone

Oh Shuri looks good!


message 107: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) Right?!


message 108: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments I'm listening to Artificial Condition (The Murderbot Diaries, #2) by Martha Wells . I didn't get to We Belong by Cookie Hiponia Everman last weekend but it's a quick read so I want to start and finish it by Saturday. Also, Boneset & Feathers by Gwendolyn Kiste . So three short ones for this week. My bookclub book irl is almost done. I might end up finishing it off either Sunday or Monday. I'm caught up with the pages. We just have to talk about it Saturday before we move on.


message 109: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) Nice! I'm almost finished with Shuri A Black Panther Novel by Nic Stone . In the morning I'll start When No One is Watching by Alyssa Cole and Bright Burning Stars by A.K. Small

I'm in the mood where I don't want to read any of the books that I'm currently reading, and only want to pick up something new :/

Totally valid. I'm shocked that I'm actually sticking to my tbr. Pick up that new thing, don't force it.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
I did XD I'm waiting for my physical hardback of AcoSF to get here so I can actually see progress. So I picked up Lore, one I should have been reading anyway, and man oh man that's so good!


message 114: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) It is? I keep hearing mixed reviews so I wasn't sure. But that's great to hear


message 115: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
Once you get past the few few chapters which are way confusing, it starts to come together and I'm loving it

I shall be finishing a 36-pointer this weekend. I do hope to read more, but no guarantees how much more.


❀ Crystal ✿ -  PEACE ☮ LOVE ♥ BOOKS  (crystaldc18) | 10122 comments I have a couple high point reads on the agenda all BR’s so that should help a bit. Plus a lot more low point BRs 🤓


message 119: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
Perfect! :D I'm in the middle of like 6 books so I'm hoping that I get them all finish up by the end of the month!

Adriana | 3733 comments Aw, man. I just posted a review. I was able to find a 500 page edition. I'll be done with Artificial Condition tomorrow.


message 121: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
Sounds perfeect!


message 122: by As You Wish (new)

As You Wish | 1879 comments I started This Savage Song (Monsters of Verity, #1) by Victoria Schwab today. I can't believe it's one of the GBR of the month and there were zero comments before me! Posting all my updates at once that I jotted down during the day (reading while at work). So hopefully some good points from this read.


message 123: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) Sweet. I just finished one and working towards finishing another


message 124: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
I plan on getting further into Lore today!


message 125: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) Still liking it?


message 126: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
Yeah it's still good! It is long though. I'm halfway through and on page 270. And it's small font so it feels like I've already read a whole book. I'm not such a fan of big books.

Going to see if anyone wants to sprint after I play some games to get further into it.


message 127: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) Yh, thats a commitment, but at least it's an enjoyable one. If I weren't so tired I'd have joined in. Hope you get some company.


message 128: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
Yeah :) That's okay, another time! Have a good night!


message 129: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) I had to put down that book but I'm 3 hours away from finishing another


message 130: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
perfect! I'm on page 344 now, got 200 pages left, going to finish today after work!

I finally finished up my 36 pointer Lore! Took me a wee while but boy it was good, 5 stars! I'm loving my amount of 5 stars this year already :D

Going to pick up Behind Her Eyes now as we've started the tv show and it's going to get creepy so I'd rather read ahead and know what's going on.


message 132: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) Woo go Maddie!

Glad to hear that about Lore. It's up next for me but I kept putting it aside because of all the mixed reviews lol


message 134: by Dee Dee (new)

Dee Dee (Dee Reads for Food) (dee_reads_for_food) I finally finished that book that I wasn't having the best time with. It helped to put it down and read something else for a bit


message 135: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53791 comments Mod
@Crystal: I just did a readalong of Lore and the 5 or so people who've finished it already loved it

Yay for finishing bleh books! So far BHE is just like the tv show, so it's going pretty quickly. I'm 13% in and should get quite a bit more in tonight once I get back from my activities.

I'm 38% into Guest List and 39% into Behind Her Eyes. I'm bloody flying through GL and so far it's a 5-star, I'm sooo sucked in! And BHE is sitting on a 2-star so far, I'm not finding anything interesting about the story, only annoying.
