Out of these, I know for sure that I have access to Wings, The Book Thief, and The Lost Hero. I'll check the library system for the rest and let you know.As for what I would like to read, I'm really not sure. I'll look tonight :)
I read Two Way Street. It is cute and a fast one day read. Tithe is different but I liked it. I need to work on finishing the series.I have Wings here in China. Maybe Leviathan.
Gunslinger I might have but I think Z read that one.
Haven't. I've (sadly) never read any of King's work before.
Okay. I looked through MS's entire TBR shelf, and only made it through the first 570 of Meghan's (you have almost as many tbr's as I do! *whew*) Here's what I have or can get my hands on:Burn Bright

Wake & Fade are great quick quick reads! But I didn't get my hands on Gone.Didn't like Evermore or Fallen. Angelfire is amazing!!
I need to get Book 4 in the Wicked Lovely series.
I have Need and Captivate at home. Once in a Full Moon was just ok.
Bright Young Things I have at home & the Summer I turned Pretty!
I'll be home home soon and then I will be able to make a list.all books I want to read as well!

I have Wings and I think that is it. But I also have the second... Spells.
I am really up for just about anything. Just let me know what you ladies would like to read.
I mean, I really don't care too much either lol. As long as I have access to the book, I'm good. It's all on MS then I suppose.
Thanks I feel the love.A few more days. I land on the 16th and will have access to my "library".
What are you guys thinking for September? I am starting fresh with my challenge next month so I am up for anything.
How about the Gunslinger? We need to read a King book. I have the series and it is pretty easy to get at the library since it isn't new.
I have that book somewhere. I wouldn't mind if Zakiya can do it :)
Sounds good. Z, come out come out where ever you are!(Hope school isn't piling on homework already! I'm catching up to your reading butt!)
(Please don't talk about it. I haven't read anything at all the last couple of days. And I can't read during any of my classes because I've got three hard classes this semester and PE. :(. UGH. You just might beat me this year!)I'm up for that. I have to pay fines on late books right now, actually. I'm sure they have it at the library, though. I'll have to make sure and beg my dad for more money if they (sadly) don't.
I just realized that I'm going to need to get more audiobooks for YA stuff so that I can listen and multitask. Because I don't have time for reading during the school year.
I'm listening to Leviathan right now and it is pretty good. I'm on part 4 of 7. Several more hours and I'll be done.
Did we decide on a book for September yet ladies? Did we decide The Gunslinger was the way to go?
I'm all for Gunslinger, but I don't think we explicitly chose that one.
All right since none of us were really sure I figured we could all use a break this month. So for next month would you all like to do Gunslinger?
Gunslinger is good. It is pretty late in the game. Should we call this one for next month? That will give us time to regroup.
Sounds good to me! I still have to finish Water for Elephants. Been busy trying to read for team challenges.
I've been busy reading books I'v gotten from the library. Those I pick up with no rhyme or reason. But I've been getting lots of newer books! I"m just so behind from being in CHina. But I'm happy to be beating my reading total from last year!
That is good. I am always glad to surpass what I have done the previous time.
All right ladies. What book did you want to read for next month?
What for next month? I am currently reading The Gunslinger...which is a really slow read. Mostly because it is fairly boring and I have no clue what is going on.
I was also thinking of a challenge. However I wanted to run it by your two first. It would be a team challenge if you guys would want to do it.
Any details thought of yet? It sounds like it would be a good, fun idea.
I was thinking of starting off as a poll... Maybe doing it like in a couple other groups I am in and doing a bingo challenge... with either page counts or bookshelf like how my other groups are. Or else I have another group that is doing a Scavenger hunt where you look for words in the book or title or cover...
I was thinking of starting with the page count one though first... I think I will open it up as a poll for the group first...
I think I will set up a BOM for next month... Is there any book in particular that you have been looking forward to reading?
That sounds interesting! Go ahead with it. Let me know if you need me to help with anything.Not really, sadly. I haven't been into the books as much so I'm just reading anything to get by. I have to catch up with the previous BOMs.
