Everyone is updated, and congratulations to Jennifer and Casey for completing the challenge, and to Gabriela for actually closing the loop!!! Tricky stuff this challenge!

For those of you close to finishing your title chain, go! Go! Go! You've still got time! (And I'm right there with you!).

The newest challenge should go up in the next few hours and promises to be more forgiving than this one :) So stay tuned.

Even though I didn't finish this challenge, I sort of enjoyed creating the chain. It was definitely brain work.

Well I totally fail boated at this challenge. I had a 2 month slump and just reread old faithfuls until something could draw me out, and by the time they did it was mid June. Oh well, maybe next time! lol

Well I didn't finish the challenge but I got through 5 of the 6. The whole reading them in order thing killed me. I started the last one over the weekend but I haven't had much time to read it and have plans tonight so there is no way it is getting finished for the challenge.

Ooh! Anna, you've read a bunch of things I really enjoyed! Summer Prince, Green Glass Sea, and Salt to the Sea (well - okay - that's a tricky one to say I "enjoyed" but you know what I mean).

I managed to squeak in my 6th in the chain, just under the wire! I'm sad that I didn't get to close the loop, as I'd planned originally - but at least I finally finished a challenge!

OK I finished this challenge with using the word Heir from the previous book and Night to connect it to the beginning. That is a total of 8 books. I know "technically" I didn't finish the last until this morning but I am still counting it because I know I made the challenge and closed the loop.

Sadly, my chain consisted of exactly three books. BUT, two of those were books I never would have read without this challenge and I kinda enjoyed them both, so I'll count that as a small victory :)

Thanks Gremlin for all your hard work!

Blue Lily, Lily Blue
The Blue Girl
The Girl at Midnight

And since I didn't finish what would have been my fourth book until today, I'm already one book up on the next challenge!
