A to Z (Ends 4/30/2011)

[Heather]

My library didn't have it so I've had to request an interlibrary loan for it. I had to wait until it was past 6 months old for me to ask for it. Hopefully it comes through.

[Heather]

Go figure... After all of this time I end up reading two R books in a two day period. One being totally by accident. I'm switching Reign Check to the St. patty's day challenge since it'll work better there. Then, I'm finally done.

Finished ;-)

[Heather]

Good job!

[Carrie (Care)]

Yay Nichole!

I haven't been updating mine.

[Lisa]

I know there is just a little over three months left, but I think I will go ahead and try to get a few read on this challenge too. May make it easier on the books I am having problems with fitting into my other challenges.

[Cindy (Squin)]

So, I just joined this group and I would love to participate in this! Is it way too late for me to do this? And, if it's not too late, can I use books that I've read so far this year, or just stick to books I read from here until the end date? Thanks!

[Angela]

you can join at any time and you can use any books you've read since the day the callenge was posted :)

[Cindy (Squin)]

Great! Thanks so much Angela!

[Angela]

No problem :)

[Heather]

Cindy, if you want to do challenges for points then let me know in the Rules for 2011 thread. It just means I could up all the books you use in challenges (can't use the same book twice unless I say so at the beginning of a challenge) and total them as the year progresses.

[Angela]

I'm currently kind of sad that I already read a P book because I want to read Pale Demon but if I'm going to get even close to finishing this one I can't really venture off course right now :(

[Heather]

Sorry!

[Angela]

Not your fault lol I could have planned ahead! Oh course I love the P book I read so it works out in the long run :)

[Angela]

I'm doing better on this one then I thought I would but I still have a long way to go and not so much time

[Angela]

Why do all the books I read seem to start with the same letter GRRR ARRGGH


Yes I am complaining about that fact for like the 15 time

[Heather]

Haha. Almost everything I have checked out right now starts with the letter S.

[Samantha]

Okay, I'm totally late, but I want to see how many I have. I didn't join until Nov, but I'm going to start from August 14th. If you decide not to count them Heather, that's okay with me.

[Heather]

That's okay. You can go back to the day that the challenged opened for points so that's just fine. Just remember for this one, that any time you use something that's not the first letter (excluding a and the type stuff) then it counts as a cheat and you get three of those.

[Jessica B]

Finished at last!

[Heather]

Congratulations.

[Suzanne]

I still have U and cannot find one book in my entire house that has that letter in it. I think I'm going to have to concede on this one.

[Vivian]

If it makes you feel better, the letter I have left...E. Yes, E. The most frequently used letter in the English language and I couldn't find a book I wanted to read. Still have a couple days though Suzanne!

[Cindy (Squin)]

This caught my attention because lately, all I'm finding are E books! I read the first two, but the last one I haven't gotten to yet.

Evermore
Ecstasy
The Emerald Talisman

[Vivian]

Thanks Cindy for the suggestions :) I actually ended up reading Enchanting the Lady after scrolling through my free ebooks. I couldn't leave the challenge incomplete with 1 book, lol.

So finished with almost two whole days left, woohoo!

[Suzanne]

Vivian wrote: "Thanks Cindy for the suggestions :) I actually ended up reading Enchanting the Lady after scrolling through my free ebooks. I couldn't leave the challenge incomplete with 1 book, l..."

That's the book I ended up reading for E as well.

[Heather]

Good job Vivian.


Hurry up, ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No pressure right? ;)

[Tya]

I finished! Umm...I'll post my list when I get home tonight. But, I finished my last book when I was on my way to work this morning. But I'm excited now and wanted to: Woot woot!

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I only reached 19 of 26. Do you want a repost Heather? My list is in post 2.

[Hillary]

I only got to 22 of 26 :(
Maybe next time! :P
msg 123

[Heather]

Thanks guys, I'll tally. No need to repost. I just start at post one and work my way through them all until everyone has been counted. It gets more difficult when they're reposted because then I start to worry if I've accidentally put someone's tally under the wrong name when I come across that persons second post and I end up taking time to go back and check everything out just to be sure it wasn't my error.

[Heather]

Ariel, have you read all the ones that you posted? I just want to be sure they're completed books, not just books you listed as one's you wanted to read for the challenge.

[Tya]

Sorry it taken me so long to post my list. I kept thinking that I had posted it, searching for it, realizing that I *hadn't* done it and scrambling around for where the heck I left it! But I'm all good now and still dancing from having finished!
