Lauren Smith You should check out The Scar as well - also a bit too long in parts, and the ending is not really satisfying, but still incredibly imaginative, well worth the page count.

I'll definitely do that if I can get my hands on a copy.

Lauren Smith My pleasure :)

You can't use re-reads for Book Hoaders though - it doesn't make your tbr pile any smaller!

Well, my first read was a library edition. This one was an ebook I bought after that and haven't had the chance to read again. You do make a good point though, will remove it.

Hi decided to see if any of my books overlapped on the Myth challenge. I’m not going to specifically read books for the challenge but I thought it would help my total. I found 10! Here they are-

No’s 4,7,12,13,17,18,20,22,23,25

I don't know if it is fare to use them as I have no intentions of completing this challenge, as there are specific challenges that just don't appeal but if you do my total is
59/100

I've been on a deadline so haven't had much time for reading. Luckily I'm done now, so as soon as I recover sufficiently I'll be hitting the pages again.

Cause I'm very confused :(
Please let me know what your totals are so far, so I can fix it :)

Everyone else please check that your totals are fine on the first post :)

My totals seem fine. Great job Lu! I know it's tough to keep track of the points, heck I barely manage to keep up with mine!


message 140: by Lu (new)

Lu | 12672 comments Mod
Thanks :)

I'm not too worried about these, everyone can see their points. More worried about the HP ones


message 141: by Crusader (new)

Crusader (crusaderza) | 2457 comments Mod
The HP ones should be sorted out once people post their individual scores. That way it will have some error checking built in, since the team scores can be checked against the individual member scores.
