Drat, now I have two book on the also appear on my "build your own challenge" - I'll have to fix this. Sorry. Guess that is why I don't ususally do both; by wee brain can't handle it. LOL!
You can overlap books, Lisa Kay!
I can!?!
Great. One less thing to worry about.
Yep... no restrictions, remember? Except the start and end dates, you can make the challenges work for you.
I thought that was between a quarterly/seasonal and a monthly, not two monthly. But thanks, got it now. (I hope.)

Congrat, Angela! I just saw
- how did you like it?
Great job, Angela!
Thanks, Dhes and Lisa:) Lisa it was just so, so. I think I gave it 3 stars. I mean to marry someone sight unseen, could have had great story possiblities but it just didn't reach it's full potential. Still it was a nice little romance.
Don't know if I'll be able to finish this month's challenge. :( Halloween is just around the corner and my time to read is severely reduced. October Spell It Out Challenge

I found Odd Thomas to be a pretty quick read once I got into it.
I really like the character. I can see why Koontz wrote several more in this series.
Odd is a great character. So, so awesome.

is it the build-your-own-October challenge?
I didn't set that many, ch&ra. But I wanted to do some of the themes this month (Cookie Month, etc.) that I didn't get to. Wanted to start Joanne Fluke's series with
, but didn't get around to it. Things like that.But, not to worry, I think I'm going to do like Kesha and have my November BYOC be to finish my Oct. BYOC.
Great job, ch&ra!
