Just finished . It fits for #5 - C, M A (or L, depending in which word you count as the first word of the title), # 6 - fav holiday destination cause it's set in Sicily :)

That one looks good, Susan. I like the filmmaking background.

It was good, Lisa Kay. His speech kind of distracted me, but in all honesty, it was probably correct since Santo was Italian and speaking English, so he probably would phrase things differently from me ;)

Yes, I would think so.

Hi Friends!!!

I am hanging in there; resting and taking my medicines LOL

I am trying to get some reading done and making a little head way.

In the next post is what I am working on for the 7% challenge :) Got one completed!!! I will continue to update that thread as I complete books.

Puzzles done !36 , 37 , 39

Great ShoSho and Robin :) I'll update the 7% challenge thread and see what we have tonight :)

I did #40 . I leave #41 for one of you , it's not my speciality :D

I finished for Blue cover
and for behind enemy lines ! Vi from moonstone finished it before me .

How are we going to this? It's going to be really hard to organize what everyone is reading into categories

ShoSho: :( :( You were supposed to finish it yesterday!!

2 reasons, i was savouring it and then RL got in the way!

Thanks ShoSho! I ended up late in the lab but tonight I'll go through what we've read and where it'll fit and see what we've got so far. I've set up a thread in the sister group to do that, just haven't had time to update it!

If 41's the word search, I'll do it tonight, I love those sort of puzzles :)

Finished which as ShoSho pointed out, fits the Behind Enemy Lines cause Vi from moonstone read it :)

Great! I've read a Behind Enemy Lines one too, we might be halfway through the category soon :) I'll check tonight

Not fair! :)

@ Oo, a reading Faceoff? Have I missed something? Or are you talking about the 7% challenge?

Don't forget, we're the original reading ninjas ;)

Sorry Vi , I'll finish sooner next time ;)

Finished it was ok, didn't enjoy it much until the last 10% or so (it was on my kindle!) but it fits for the 7% challenge.

Talking about the 7% challenge, I've updated the posts in the thread in the sister group, decided the spreadsheet was too confusing! I've not put anything in a definite category yet, thought I'd get to the end of the first week and see how things look then.

Wow thanks Claire , I just saw it , a great way to do it.

I didn't comment there so it wouldn't be confusing .

Oh, feel free :) Comment where ever you like :) Now I have a post for each of us, add any comments/books/anything else you fancy to it :)

aha oki , got it!

what are the colors of the team behind and in front of us? Are they both blue?

Yes, both are blue, ShoSho.

The sister site looks good with the way you did it :) except, I'm the one who read Heart of Obsidian, not Cathie ;)

Oops, sorry Susan! :( I'll change that now! I think my eyes were going fuzzy by that point!

I did 42 and 43

Cathie & I are having an off the books reading competition between the two of us, to see who can read the most amount of books that count towards the main challenge (books 160 + pages) by..."

Haha!! Sounds like a lot of fun :)

Well it is true that Oo is ahead already with 1 (yes, just 1!) completed book, I am on the mend and getting ready to kick her reading butt. bwahahaha.

I have been really sick for the last week or so; migraine and sinus and not able to stand light, sound, etc., so my reading has been extremely curtailed.

I am on the mend now and will jumpstart my participation in all challenges, bwahahaha.

I only finished one book this week, for the challenge, when my eyes could focus (and this doesn't count towards Oos challenge).

The Knock at the Door: A Mother's Survival of the Armenian Genocide . I would recommend it to anyone. 5 stars.

Will figure out later, with Captain's help, where it fits in.

**chuckles**

And it's working; I have sent her (Oo) off on a wild goose chase, looking for words and phrases...which means she isn't reading....

Oo, oooohhhhh, I love Golem...my precious!

toppling refers to stacks of books, not books all in a row...you have to have something to topple (hands on hips, sticks tongue out right back at ya, and wiggles butt as she walks away with books in hands)

Laugh away I just finished Vox .

(I believe we are now tied :-)

This is brilliant, you guys have just cheered me up again! Had a good day til I ended up in the lab til half 8 this evening, got in and read this and I'm smiling again :)

I'll possibly get quite a bit of reading done tomorrow, going to first aid at a 'bed race' and it's a bit of a drive and I'm not driving :)

Smile Claire! You have to laugh; it's a definite daily :-).

I'm glad your loooong day is over and you can relax now :-)

Cathie as much as I love reading books with you, I am sure Oo can win this one

not that I'm a biased LJB member or anything...

:D

I tried to find an image of a cool chick on a bike with a great black leather jacket riding over a tangerine (because surely doesn't the internet have a photo for everything??!!).
I came up with this, I figure it is close enough if you can use your imagination for what I intended.. bwaahahaha

Nice bike Karen :)

Cathie, I know, laughing's definitely a must. Hope I'll do a fair bit today, the description my Dad gave of the bed race was 'madness'!!!

Oh, and I'll update the spreadsheet and sister group thread later when I get in.

I finished last night which fits somewhere and which I think is much too short to count.

Grrr....let me READ!!!!

Atomic Tangerine-ette is concentrating on books...fiercely concentrating on whooping some black leather a**

I finished this morni g which is perfect for the May mini r-a-t category cause it's green and has flowers :)

I finished .

Again, will need to figure out where it goes later.

I'm off to reading a new book :-)

I finished . Good book ~ 4 stars.

It's now 3 am (I couldn't not finish the book, lol) so I'm going to get some sleep. zzzzzzzz

Good night Cathie

I finished , I don't know where it fits yet.

ShoSho wrote: "I finished , I don't know where it fits yet."

That one was on my old plans to read. It fits #1

Dagna from Bedazzled Blue has read it.

Feel free to read which ever you want Robin. I'm sorry if I've messed up your reading plan :( We could always do Behind Enemy Lines twice, if we get enough books?

It's not your fault. I was just confused about what I was supposed to doing :) I just planned out books for specific tasks that I knew I could get read. LOL I am just wondering around in a daze these days. Just over look me LOL I am blaming it on the medicine :)
