Barbara's TDRC to read and completed list

[Barbara]

That's ok! I thought that was the case and that as soon as I finished my 29th task you would notice. I still have 4 one book tasks to go and then I have only the multi book tasks left so then you won't have to update so often.

[Lu]

Hehe I don't mind updating :)

[Barbara]

I am still reading for this challenge and almost every book I read I can use for this challenge. However since most books I read won't finish a challenge for me now I won't mention every book seperately. Only if a book finishes a challenge I will post it in the discussion and if not I will post it in my update message which is number 3.

[Barbara]

Finished the two towers which completes task 5 and makes my total finished tasks 30.

[Barbara]

Yeah I finsihed 2 very boring books. One was The Egytian which was translated from finnish so that takes care of task 18 and I finished the last part of the Guenever rilogy which takes care of task 28.
I have now finished 32 tasks in total and am now a Diablo. Cool!

[Lu]

Congratz Barbara!

[Liezel]

Congrats on the new rank

[Claudia]

Congrats! Almost an overlord. ;)

[Barbara]

Almost, there is still one more rank in between though and I only have two more task with only one book and for one of them I think I am going to read two since the book I want to read for that one is the third in a series and I still have to read number two. So it's the big tasks for me and I am also reading 33 books for task 37. So you guys still have time to catch up.

[Barbara]

I read Three plays by Sophocles which after a discussion whith Lu and adapting task 39 counts for that task. I have now finished 33 tasks and the only task where one book is the requirement is the task where you have to read a book with more than 1000 pages.

[Barbara]

I read some books and I have updated several times but with finishing Dead-End Road by Richard Kunzmann I finished task 30. That means I have completed 34 tasks in total.

[Barbara]

I have finished another 4 books for this challenge.
two of those I have to mention because they finish tasks. The first is The pen pal, which is a horrible book but that is besides the point. It completes task 36 for me where I had to read 3 books that had something to do with the word pen.
I have also finsihed Sarum which completes task 13 where we had to read a book with more than 1000 pages.
That means I have now finished 36 tasks and have obtained a new rank. I am now an Archfiend. One more rank to go :)

[Lu]

Congratz Barbara!

[Claudia]

Congrats!
I think I'll just bow out gracefully...

[Lauren]

Lol, me too, I've been totally defeated by this challenge. A humble evil bunny bows to the Archfiend...

[Barbara]

Thanks you guys!
I was getting the feeling I was the only one left reading for this challenge:) Since I have only 15 more books to go (I have decided on the 11 books for task 37) I'll finfish this one and then start on the Terry Pratchett challenge.

[Barbara]

P.S. Lauren, evil bunny is by far the coolest rank anyway in this challenge, so I don't blame you.

[Barbara]

I have read two books. Katherine for task 37 and The adventures of Tom Sawyer for task 35. I have now completed task 35 and total completed tasks is 37.

[Lu]

New title?

[Barbara]

No, not yet. Unfortunately :( I have finished 37 tasks and then you don't get a new title. My new title will come when I have finished 40 tasks and that will be my last title in this challenge. I just wanted to mention that I am getting so close to completing this challenge :)

[Lu]

You are doing amazingly!! Hell I'm still on rank 2 :P

Congratz on doing so well Barbara :)

[Barbara]

Yeah, but I have put all my focus on this challenge and since this challenge started I haven't read that many books that I couldn't use for this challenge on purpose. Also I think I read more books than you so it would be easier for me to finish the large amount of books you need to read for this challenge. I think any one who finishes this challenge in any amount of time is doing great because there are some tough tasks in there.

[Lu]

Yea I think my goal is just to finish it some or other time :)

[Barbara]

I have read another three books among which were my last debut novel and my last last book published before the author's death. That means I have finished task 38 and also finished 38 tasks:) I still have two more tasks and 4 books to go before I have completed the challenge.

[Claudia]

Ooh, almost a Diabolical Overlord. That's excellent. :)

[Lu]

Great job Barbara!

[Barbara]

Yeah I did it!!!!
It took some compulsive reading the last few days and I did sell out by reading 11 books for task 37 even though I started by reading 33 and ended up reading 9 books that I didn't use. But I have finished another 4 books and finished tasks 31 and 37 and that makes me a DIABOLICAL OVERLORD Mwahahah!!!!

[Lu]

Whooo that is EPIC!

Congratz!

[Barbara]

Thanks! I must say I am kinda proud of myself!

[Lu]

So now that you have owned it, what's next?

[Barbara]

The Terry Pratchett challenge and reading books just for the hell of it instead of that I have to read them so I can use them in a challenge :)

[Liezel]

That is awesome, well done

[Claudia]

I must say, at the start of this challenge I didn't think anyone would finish. But, just wow! You did it. Amazing!

[Barbara]

Thanks Guys!

[Lauren]

Holy crap, WELL DONE! I didn't think anyone would finish this either. Major kudos :)
