Trying to catch up...

1.20 Bone Crossed rated 4/5 stars by Jacqueline
2.20 A Golden Web and will hunt for a book about 14th century Italy.
3.20 LGBT - A Love Story: Starring My Dead Best Friend and contributed, will read another LGBT book later
3.25 Yellow Star (Audiobook), Bride of the Water God, Vol.1 (graphic novel), and will read a novel in verse (soon)

4.5 Dark Life and review is here: http://www.bookworminginthe21stcentur...
4.10 Strange Angels, borrowed it to my sister-in-law who is 15 and she really liked it too. :)

So 35 total with another 65 pending. Page wise...

1,863 I think that's right. If i'm wrong just let me know. I'll readd when I update as well. :)

[Misty]

Welcome to the board (with a bang!) Kristen! Few things: we count partial tasks for partial points, so, for example, you finished 2/3 books for task 3.25 and got counted for 2/3 of the points (16.66). I figure, if you read it, it counts. Full points will also be counted on tasks that have an extra non-book portion, like reviewing, or like task 4.25, where you have to do a couple of extras. If the extras are not done at the end, I will deduct accordingly.
And the GR pages don't quite match up with yours, I have you at 1874.

[Misty]

I still have my copy sitting on my computer desk -- I can't read it yet, but I just look at it, hold it sometimes.
Great playlist. I'll have to see how it matches up in my head when I read it.
And can I just say that I am positively tickled that you have Oingo Boingo in your iTunes...

I saw Oingo Boingo in 1993, one of the best concerts I've ever been to. Was obsessed with Danny Elfman for a year after that. Did I say '93? God, I'm old!! :-)

[Misty]

Yeah, but there are times when Goodreads will say less pages than you've read, so it sort of balances. Just consider it a bonus!

Finished up task 1.25 with Zan-Gah and the Beautiful Country (151 pages). Probably won't be finishing too many more, as I am heading in to Jane in June and my month is going to be pretty well taken up. I'm going to try for The Bermudez Triangle and The Beguilers, and maybe Wildwood Dancing (which I've been in the mood for, and which will be quick since it's a reread) and Thirteen Reasons Why (audio at least, since I'm going on a trip). We'll see...

Yes, it is the last one of the challenge it was just 2nd on my list- sorry.

That's fine. Just wanted to make sure something hadn't been swapped out. :)

[Kristen]

Alright an update: My friend Sara was pushing me to read this book for task 1.10 - A Blue So Dark because I'm not big into realistic fiction. It was so-so. Probably not one I'd buy.

[Kristen]

Oh wait, I also read Spell Hunter and Wayfarer by RJ Anderson for task 1.25. :-D

[Misty]

Why Spell Hunter, Kristen? Is it part of a series, or are you just reading two by Anderson? And is it a different culture or genre?
