Well, I'm thinking about being in. Maybe I can get this to work with some of my OTHER challenges. (On Window's Live Messenger my "nickname" I have posted presently is--why did I agree to all these challenges) lol, yes I AM a challenge fool, what can we say. Its nice to have some kind of "structure" to your reading, ya know? And we don't want to talk about how many books I have in my house. Hubby SWEARS that we have to be in code violations because of the weight of them. I keep telling him I don't really have THAT many (just because the bookcases are crammed full, there are books under the bed--the sofa in the living room, on the floor, on the desk. . .)
hi,I'm new to this and don't really know what I should do.can use some help,thanks.
Welcome! I would be more than happy to help in any way that I can. What do you need help with? Are you looking to join the April Challenge?
Cool!Count me in.
I'll post a list later (I'm OCD and really get excited about making lists!) but I know right off I'll be re-reading Outlander with another group so that's my first book for this challenge!

I enjoyed Outlander. Have you read the rest of the series?
Only about 5 times!! I'm a rabid slavering Diana Gabaldon fan. She is so talented, she has really spoiled me in terms of the quality of writing I'm willing to read.And hands off, Ladies, Jamie is MINE!

LOL! I like Jamie too. I still need to read Drums of Autumn and up. If you're ever planning on rereading that one please let me know. I love the writing too, but do find it a little lengthy at times. I find that I enjoy the books more if I have somebody that I can discuss them with along the way.

Sure, most likely I'll re-read the whole series in the next few months because the newest one, An Echo in the Bone just came out and, it's an OCD thing, I am compelled to re-read the whole series before I can start the new book.

Even though I haven't read them all, I just like to have them in my collection, lol!

I LOVE the Outlander books too. I've read them all except Echo at least twice and I'm now listening to the series.

Why just one star?
The writing felt awkward, no plot- which isn't a probelm for me if I like the hero/heroine- which I did not even have any respect for them. *Sigh* I wanted to love The Veil of Night (Night, #1) but I found it boring, with bad writing and bad characters.
