Heather | 1262 comments How's everyone coming along?


message 14: by Shaunesay (new)

Shaunesay I'm about 17 pages into Updraft (Bone Universe, #1) by Fran Wilde , still acclimating to the story.

Is anyone else also doing Summer COYER? It started today as well and runs all summer. They have lots of things planned!

Good luck today everyone!

Heather | 1262 comments I am but I am still totally confused about it because there isn't really an explanation on the website!


message 16: by Rachel Anne (new)

Rachel Anne (racheldespins) | 174 comments I've read 39 pages of Staged to Death (Caprice De Luca Mystery #1) by Karen Rose Smith . It's definitely a page-turner!

It does get pretty involved it seems, at it's most basic it's a read and review-a-thon so if you don't like posting reviews then I would say skip it. Otherwise they offer prizes, and have different challenges.

It does get involved and confusing with everything they have going on, I will admit!

I am participating! I post reviews for every book I read anyway

Rachel Anne (racheldespins) | 174 comments I have signed up for #COYER as well. It will be my first time! Looks like lots of fun.


message 20: by Shaunesay (new)

Shaunesay I think the Bingo will be fun. I go through phases where I'm fine to review and then where I don't want to bother I just want to keep reading, so it really is a challenge for me!

Hope everyone has a great day! We're off to my grandparents house for a make your own burrito meal for Father's Day.

Do we start Bingo whenever or is it going to be a set time? Have a great day


message 22: by Shaunesay (new)

Shaunesay I think we can start now, and only post Bingos on certain days, but I'll have to check it again.


message 23: by Shaunesay (new)

Shaunesay We're in the home stretch! Only a few more hours for me, but since I work tomorrow, probably won't stay up! I didn't get much read today with the family gathering, but I still feel like I got a good start on my book!

How did everyone else do?


message 24: by Shaunesay (new)

Shaunesay You all did great! I only manged 108 pages, but I'm still happy with it! See you next time!
