An uptade and a question :o)I'm currently reading Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder (30% so far)
And lately I feel like cheating. Is it wrong to choose the books to the montly challenges that also fit into the "Serious Series Readers" and "A - Z Author Challenge 2012" challenges?
Sonia wrote: "And lately I feel like cheating. Is it wrong to choose the books to the montly challenges that also fit..."I try to double- or triple-up my books for various challenges as much as possible. However, sometimes it just doesn't work. For instance, I read City of Ashes because it was BOM for another group, but it also fit the Not-so-happy ending theme.
No, I would expect that everyone would do that. Of course, not every book will fit, but if it does, that's a bonus.There are only so many reading hours in the day/week and only so many $ in the reading budget.
that was my line of thought... but my personal talking cricket tends to be picky...
Sonia, tell him to be quiet, you're reading ;)
I made Progress!! I am so happy!!! Though there probably will be no more progress now until I finish the Riley Jenson series... its addicting *pouts* 1. Valentine's Day -
