V-Day Challenge (Ends 2/28/2011)

[Tya]

Ok. I thought that I signed up for this challenge and have been reading accordingly! My word is
B--(B)lameless by Gail Carriger (Done)
E--Thief (E)yes by Janni Lee Simner (Done)

M--Once in a Full (M)oon by Ellen Schreiber (done)
I--
N--Oh (N)o She Didn't by Clinton Kelly
E--Eigth Grade Bites by Heather Brewster

Does anyone know any good "I"'s? I cannot find anything!

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I'd check other people's lists in the alphabet challenge thread. There are a variety of I books in there.

I can't really rec one because all of my I books are ones I still need to read!

[Hillary]

Infinite Days was a pretty decent read.

Incarceron was okay...it's different. I have hopes the second book is better.

Sadly, those are the only two I books I have read.

[Tya]

Right after I posted my plea I realized I have "Incareron" at the library and "Infinite Days" in my to-read pile. So apparently when I said I can't find anything I meant I'm lazy butt and didn't look for anything.

[Carrie (Care)]

I used Immortal In Death for my I in this challenge. It is the third book in the In Death Series, so if you haven't read the first two, I wouldn't use it.

I finally finished. I had to change two of mine because I wasn't sure if I would get to them before the 28th. I haven't used a bunch of my books from this year so it worked out.

[Jasmine]

I have a lot of trouble with "I" too. I'm thinking of just starting the In Death series and using all those, lol. I've wanted to read it for the longest time anyway.

[Carrie (Care)]

Oh yeah, lol. It doesn't have to be the first letter like the A-Z challenge so you can use any of them.

[Jasmine]

I'm debating if I should buy the ebook of Naked In Death or not. All the In Death books have such great reviews, but I don't know if I want to buy over 30 books for $7 or more each. O.o I think I'm going to end up getting them from the library.

[Jasmine]

Wait. . .is "in" even allowed as our "I"? Or is it a word like "the" that doesn't count?

[Tya]

If it doesn't you can always read "Immortal in Death" or "Innocent in Death" or "Imitation in Death" or "Indulgence in Death" well wait a minute. Can you re-read a book for a challenge because I have all of those "I"'s sitting on a bookshelf and wouldn't even have to wait for the library....

[Jasmine]

Yup you can, as long as you read the entire book over again. And that's true, but I only have until the 28th, I don't know if I'd be able to read the much by then. O.o I'm probably going to use The Iron Queen as one of them and just find something else for the other "I" & then try to tack the In Death books later on.

edit* I just realized that I reread a book a few weeks ago that had the letter "I" in it, ahaha. Can't believe I forgot to put that in for this challenge. O.o

[Carrie (Care)]

Jasmine does your library have overdrive? I know they have a lot of In Death ebooks and some audiobooks as well.At least mine does and I live in a tiny community with the smallest library ever.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

A few I books :

[Jasmine]

I completely forgot about Inside Out! Thanks Stacia.

& Carrie, I'm not exactly sure what overdrive is, but my library does have an ebook system (I'm guessing that's what your referring too), I shall check that out.

[Carrie (Care)]

Yes, Overdrive is what most libraries use in North America. We only got it in my town late last year.

[Jasmine]

Done! :D

[Heather]

Wow, 16 of you are done. I'm impressed.

[Carrie (Care)]

Congrats to everybody that finished!

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

I have 2 left to finish, but TOSTG is calling. Maybe I'll get a chance to finish, but we're going away for the weekend. I just hate getting so close and not completing.

[Heather]

You can always finish later, but I'll just count the points you have at the end of the night on the 28th.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

So I can do it for partial points then?

[Heather]

Ya. I just add up the number of books read once the challenge is done. It doesn't matter if you intended to do more. I won't cancel out what you managed to complete.

What is TOSTG?

[Heather]

I think she meant TSOTG This Side of the Grave

[Angela]

oooh ok. I get so confused with the abbreviations :)

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Yeah. I keep putting the O in the wrong place.

[Heather]

Generally, if you see an abbrev. and it's not in a series thread then run through the newest releases in your head and you find one that clicks. That's how I figure them out.

[Angela]

Ah, that's clever Heather :) I'm just not that quick

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]
