Margo | 11628 comments Hi all, I completely forgot to start reading! About 30mins ago it suddenly occurred to me that there was something I should be doing........whoops

So anyway, 3 hours late, I'm starting with The Road as it's my shortest listen.

Happy toppling everyone

Sharon, thanks for setting up the reporting thread.

I have started reading Time Zone on kindle, and will be listening to A Dying Fall whilst doing some tasks during the day.

Have an enjoyable toppling week everyone.

Hey Margo! I had added it to my paper copy but forgot to do so in Message 11 which acts as a double check. It also lets you know what’s still available, so I think it’s rather important! Thanks for catching the faux pas!😉


message 93: by Amanda (Mandy) (new)

Amanda (Mandy) | 762 comments I ended up reading an unplanned book and reported it.

It was Fields' Guide to Assassins for page number 2. I reported it in the thread.

I plan to read the next book in the series Fields' Guide to Voodoo which will fit series 3. It is a short fun read.

Also a book I had on hold at library came in Can't Spell Treason Without Tea. It will fit pub month 5. I’m 40% through the audiobook.

Yes, we are all doing great!
I have just started my 5th book, but that will be all from me for the toppler. My Saturday, (ADST) time, is going to be busy.


message 97: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2419 comments Hi, all! I have been unavailable today as I had a couple of appointments and a RL Bookclub Meeting.

I have added Amanda: Count Your Lucky Stars to Publication Day #2

Other than that, I think I am updated. Check out the list in Message 10 if you would like to check/double check me. I welcome your feedback.

I think this team is AWESOME!

Margo | 11628 comments Sharon wrote: " I think this team is AWESOME! ..."

No Sharon, YOU are awesome!

Sometimes People Die finished and reported. It was a decent story which gave me some LOL moments but what made it great for me was the narrators soft, Scottish accent.

Already started my final book James for month of publication: 3.


message 99: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Hopper | 2419 comments You go, girl! I am in the middle of two and should finish both today. That leaves one more I intended to read. We’ll see! Thanks for the compliment! :)


message 100: by Amanda (new)

Amanda | 1788 comments Finished and reported Count Your Lucky Stars. I'm almost halfway through Zero Days and am hoping to finish it tonight.
