Hi all, just checking in :) This weekend had lovely weather in London - but I, unfortunately, caught a pollen allergy. The week was crazy at work, not able to get a lot of reading done until end of the week and now I am reading a 500+ pager.

I had a question, my bad if it was answered before. The books we start in May and finish in June - will they count for May or June or none at all?

[Tati]

ooooh, we have a new mini challenge!

Thanks, Louise!

That's a fun mini- challenge. I think I've got a couple of options.

[Louise]

Good morning all, another sunny day. Made a start on The Daughter of Doctor Moreau yesterday and am enjoying it so far. I’m going to be posting an update either later today or tomorrow with our progress.

Just a reminder to all, please make sure the edition you have read is on your shelf. If you are reading an audio please note the default page count on the spreadsheet.

Kindly do not input any details in columns F-K on the spreadsheet, these columns are for the captains to use. If you have read for a specific task this can be noted in column L

Oh no! I can’t even imagine - I always think of my kindle as never ending. Haha
I’ve had mine for over ten years and it is getting pretty slow…

mine is around that age as well, and it's so slow sometimes... but I tried to replace it, and the ones Amazon sent me all had dead pixels in the screen. After 2 or 3 attempts, I gave up, got a refund and kept using my old one.

[Maritza]

Hi guys. My copy of The Daughter of Doctor Moreau gor returned by mistake. I'm back on a waiting list.

[Louise]

@Vicki - please add The Lonely Hearts Hotel to your shelf please :)

@Beth - please add The Spare Man to your shelf please. :)

QUICK UPDATE

We have just over a week left in the first month of May and are currently in 3rd place.

We only need 4 500-599page books and 6 600+ page books to meet our minimum requirement for May. If you have claimed one of these and don't think you will complete them in time, do let us know.

There is still time to participate in the BOM for Kings of the Wyld.

[Tati]

I have just posted my 500 pager :)

I can try to squeeze another 500 page chonk, if need be.

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Hi Team,

I flew into Melbourne this morning, down here for client visits and a conference. Which means I will get some good reading done in my downtime :)

I've almost finished my 600 pager and have another 500 one lined up

I hope everyone is having a great week!

[Melissa]

All good here :)
I was feeling a bit under the weather today. Near the end of the day I had a second wind though and finished The Well of Ascension for a 600 + pager. What a great series!!

I didn't even consider this possibility.....

[Cindy]

I’m hoping to have my 500+ book done within the next couple days

Love that series :)
I have been putting off because I don't want it to ruin the trilogy, but I've been told it is very good

Ok, oops - I thought those requirements were for the whole challenge, not every month. So, I’ll only get Kings of the Wyld done from my list by the end of the month. My other long ones were just my plans for the challenge over all.

[Nistha]

I have 3 * 500-600 pager claimed - I am positive I will finish 2 out of the 3 but not entirely sure if I can finish all 3 by end of the month.

[Maritza]

Does this work for dark pink cover?

I added it as read on ss.

[Maritza]

I am working on my clunker if a book. Hope to finish my end of month.

It definitely works. Nice find!

2 out of 3 is fabulous.

Done, thanks for the reminder!

I am working hard on my 600+ book -- it's for a book club that meets the 2nd of June. I should make it by the 31st. It's a nonfiction about the history of gay marriage and it's a bit of a slog.

[Maritza]

Good Morning Guys,
Was looking for dark orange cover to complete the first rainbow.
Does this work?

[Melissa]

It looks more red to me? But I’ll wait for a second opinion.

[Melissa]

Just picked up a book with 501 pages! (Silently cheers) I’ll start it and then see where we get - if we need it or not.

[Tati]

I was checking the tracking sheet, and there's a captain comment that my book A Thousand Heartbeats was not marked as read on my TT shelf. But I'm looking at it and it's marked as read there. How can I fix this?

There is a rating showing but no date read showing 😀

I just added this information on my review :)

[Delitealex]

I just finished reading A Swirl Of Pride and didn't see a page count for either edition. On Amazon it says 128 pages is that good enough. I already put it on the SS

[Vicki]

Louise wrote: "@Vicki - please add The Lonely Hearts Hotel to your shelf please :)"

Added...sorry about that!

Thanks, I've added the page count onto GR :)

[Beth]

Finished a kidlit book: Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer and ARbooks clocks it at 50K words:

Is there a place in the spreadsheet where I should put that?

I think it is more red, too :(

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Dark orange is proving tricky!

I found which is 3 hours and 8 minutes so just meets the requirements :o
Will be fun to read with my kids
