Yes, I'll check! We still have 5 books for Possessed though so we have to complete the board once more before we need it again and we might not have time to complete it a sixth time.
I also have a question, does it have to be SS or can it be just two S's that are not next to each other?

nefeli (nefelii) | 212 comments Oh and I'm reading "Dreams of darkness and desire" so I can log that for "Possessed" if you want!

It's just ss together.

I have several 100-150 page books by a Jessica, so no need to worry :)

nefeli (nefelii) | 212 comments Great!
I hope to finish Dreams of Darkness and Desire by B.L. Cagle by the end of the week and I'm debating on whether to start this Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid or this The Serpent's Shadow (The Kane Chronicles, #3) by Rick Riordan ?

I have only read Serpent's Shadow, but I liked it. But I like all Riordan's books.

I can get either blood or lost with the book i'm currently reading but it's going to take me a while so we mighht have already completed these block by then so we'll see!

No, i'm not going to participate. Unfortunately this is going to be a busy weekend for me.

It's a 24 hour readathon that is run two-three times per year. There's usually a few challenges before the actual readathon as well. Here's the link for the Goodreads group - https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/...

message 290: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6010 comments Hey, guys. We just need:
Halloween
Lost
Dark
for this block :)

I'm currently reading The Lost Village by Camilla Sten (Lost) and The Mark of Athena (The Heroes of Olympus, #3) by Rick Riordan (Halloween) and should be done in a couple hours. :)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6010 comments Hey guys. Finished Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and I should finish You'll Be the Death of Me by Karen M. McManus for me as well.
I really want to get back into It by Stephen King because it was getting so good, but it's so long. I kept thinking, I'll just get a couple shorter books out of the way then come back and haven't.

I'm still working on It too. I was determined to finish it before the end of the month but have well over 1,000 pages to go 🙈

I have a day off work today so will post some reviews that have bern building up and hopefully complete another BR or two 😊

I've only one midterm left, so I'll be posting a review friday and I'll do a bulk read friday too! Can't wait :)


message 294: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9838 comments Reviews posted and we've completed another board :) The only blocks so far filled on the next board are 'Curse' and 'Death' :)

I'm hoping to finish another three BRs (The Coward, The Transgender Issue, and It) before the end of the month and maybe a quick audio too.


message 295: by [deleted user] (new)

hey guys... sorry i was so lost this month. I did read like 3 books though... i have been so bad with my reading. I don't really understand what I'm supposed to do or how to post... I read Dear Justyce (Dear Martin, #2) by Nic Stone Dividing Eden (Dividing Eden, #1) by Joelle Charbonneau , Tyler Johnson Was Here by Jay Coles , and A Song of Wraiths and Ruin (A Song of Wraiths and Ruin, #1) by Roseanne A. Brown


message 296: by Dannii (new)

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9838 comments Hey, Cinthia. No need to apologise 😊

I don't think you need to worry about which blocks to use for each book as we won't fill the board again anyway. If you go to the third post on the main challenge thread it will give you a description for each block. Find one that works for each book and post it, along with your book cover, link to your review, link to any buddy read threads, and link to the edition with the highest page count, on the review thread 😊

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6010 comments Hey, everyone! I'm done for the day. It's been a great month and everyone did so well! Great job, team!

Dannii Elle (danniiellereads) | 9838 comments I've just posted my final two reviews. I won't be able to get my current read (It) completed before the end of the month so I've just updated my page count and that's me finished for the month. Thanks for a great challenge all! :)


Vanessa Gayle ⚔️ Fangirl Faction (fangirlfaction) | 3795 comments I just posted my last review. I might be able to squeeze in one more. Not sure yet. I have a few more chapters left of my current read so if I can finish it and write a review tonight then I'll post that one as well. See you all in November!
