I know! I was typing as you posted the book, so I didn't see it!

From what I understand, the spin has already been done. They now have to assign numbers to the teams randomly, and then we will get our genre later tonight/today.

Karla Okay, we have our next genre! Please update your messages with what you're going to read. Please include ALL characters that have a few lines of dialogue. Thanks, everyone!

Karla We are tied for fourth place! Only three books behind first place!


message 209: by Karla (new)

Karla I have Humorous book, it counts as an "R" book. I also have an "H" book that I have to read before it. They are both for another challenge and have to be read in order, but I will finish them both.

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5594 comments I've got plenty of U books.

Karla, can you look and see if these two books are long enough. Unbeloved and One Week Girlfriend. On both, there are editions that are over 160, but also one that is under. I just want to be sure, Thanks!

Hi Danielle - I just checked them both and they are ok. (and it seems the 155 pages listed for one week girlfriend is just incorrect)

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5594 comments My first book will be Unbeloved.

I've updated my book post with the first of the books I'll start with this week.


message 215: by ❶İձ❶ (new)

❶İձ❶ (ttea) | 9617 comments Can we have thriller back?! This one has to many vowels :P (I prepared for Es �)

I've finished first book Keys to Love it has couple of letters. I'll update post.
I have to O books and one U I'm sure about (to get to U one I have to read another first - not a problem :P). I wasn't really checking for H, M, R, S since I think they can be easily found :P
And I think one of Os could also pass as humor (need to check on that)


message 216: by ✿~ٲԾ� (new)

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5594 comments I got plenty of U's, and like you say H, M, R, and S can be found ok. It's always O's (also E's but that's not a problem with this round) that I find difficult.


message 217: by ❶İձ❶ (last edited Jul 20, 2014 07:42AM) (new)

❶İձ❶ (ttea) | 9617 comments I planned to read Backstage Pass by Olivia Cunning. Since it's first in series and if I like it enough to continue, there'll more Os :P If not, there is Lux series where all books start with O.

And there should be at least one Owen in all those mm both of us have on shelfs :P

I only had time to add my books to the list, then I had to deal with RL. Don't worry, your books will be counted.

I'm going to try to read at least one more book than I did last week. Well, I'll read one more book that fits the challenge. I'm thinking about trying our an audiobook, but I don't know if I want to.

We couldn't use the one you finished yesterday because it didn't fit any of the letters last round. And we can't use the one about the cat this round because it doesn't fit any of the letters for this round.


message 228: by Karla (last edited Jul 20, 2014 01:38PM) (new)

Karla I have added our books to the Week Two message. I will rearrange the books, as people finish them, just like last time. We will need another U to finish the second round.

Everyone, please remember to add the books to your shelf.

Don't add them yet then. If we have enough Us with Danielle's books, I can keep them for next round (just in case :P)
It's first day, so we are all changing books (me especially :P) no wonder you missed some.
And since I'm mood-reader, who knows if I'll even read them by the end of the week :P

❶İձ❶ (ttea) | 9617 comments One more thing.
I'm going on a trip (visiting my dad), so it's possibility that I'll read less than last week. My brother will probably be bored and he'll pester me to entertain him.

Speaking of that, Mods (Karen) can I have letters for next 2 weeks so I know what books to take with me? :P (or I could just take whole disc with me)

I added one late, so that's why you missed them probably. So no worries.

But you can't be pleased....complained about not wanting THRILLER again, and then got a different word, and how say that you miss THRILLER as this one has two many vowels :o lol

I'm hoping one of my fellow mods will do the wheel spinning for me again this week. That way I can shift the blame when teams are unhappy with their word... hahaha

Karla I've updated the books read so far. Between Danielle and Tea, we have five books done.

Alyssa, please remember to set the read date on Hit. With your book, we have six done. Please update this message, Alyssa's Books each week. It makes it easier for me to find the books if everyone has a specific post they update. The links to everyone's post is on the first page of this thread. Message 9. Thanks.

I ended up with an audiobook of The Next Thing on My List because I put the wrong format on hold. I started listening to it yesterday. So far, I am liking it. I like the convenience of it, I can listen while I am cleaning and cooking. I'm not a fan of the reader, her S's hurt my ears, but I'll try another audiobook.

Yeah, they are easy. Some narrators are not good, but there are really some great ones too, hope the next one will be better.
