Hey everyone, Happy New Year! I've got a little more than an hour to the New Year over here. I'm honestly just excited to read and watch Sherlock when it comes out tomorrow. How about you?


message 11: by Joi (new)

Joi | 972 comments 30 minutes away from New Year.


message 12: by Joi (new)

Joi | 972 comments I have a question that I probably should have asked before now.
Are these the only challenges that are included in this challenge or will we get more when we complete these?


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments These are it for the month.

Haha! I'm DYING to watch it. I was rewatching the shows on Netflix in preparation. I get this weird squeal like shriek when I see trailers of shows/movies I'm excited for so I feel you.


message 15: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments We must be at the same time zone Joi.


message 16: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Got my first book done for the New Year! Such a good mystery. I'm going to read Everything, Everything or Cinder next. Both are BR's.


message 17: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments @Abigail - Well, that's the best excuse (:

I have no idea how I'm going watch the new series. I thought there was a way but of course it's made in the UK so I'm sure I'll have to find a way or get my brother on the case.


message 18: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Finished my second book. So mad at it. I need to just write my full review and be done with it. I can't stop shaking my head. I'm going to finish a book I was reading with my mom in December. It should be only one point but it's a point.


message 19: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments The book actually ended up being 4 points because I found a longer edition. Hopefully that's okay with Abbie or Sarah. I'm going to read Cinder tomorrow. Everyone loves that series so I have high hopes.


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments I thought Cinder was a really good book. I hope you enjoy it.


message 21: by Gillian (last edited Jan 02, 2017 07:05AM) (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments I loved the cinder series even the the book with all the little stories think there was about 8 short stories in that book.


message 22: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments I hope so too <3
8! If I really like the series I'll have to read them.
What is everyone reading?


message 23: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments I'm reading Raised by Wolves (Raised by Wolves, #1) by Jennifer Lynn Barnes atm then I think I will read The Chronicles of Narnia (Chronicles of Narnia, #1-7) by C.S. Lewis series next.


message 24: by Adriana (last edited Jan 02, 2017 10:41AM) (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments I read Narnia a WHILE back. I never understood that first book with a girl named Polly? I'm sure you'll love the series.


message 25: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Finished Cinder finally! I'm probably going to read two short books now or maybe Dreamer's Pool which should be good.


message 26: by Adriana (last edited Jan 03, 2017 10:49AM) (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments @Abigail - I just watched it yesterday on the PBS website!! I'm sad about (view spoiler)

Will do about Dreamer's Pool.

Yeah, she seemed to be fine with the longer edition (:


message 27: by Adriana (last edited Jan 04, 2017 09:55AM) (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments It looks like my student teaching is being pushed back a couple of days so I can read a lot until Wednesday. Then I'll probably be able to read books mainly on the weekends.

How are all of you? Do you have classes or work?


message 28: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments I'm doing great I'm on to my 5th book hope to do reviews tonight as I finally got the internet on yesterday after waiting 10 weeks for them to hook it up when I moved house. Computers are catching up on all the updates and should be good to go when I get home from work :) No classes for me but I do work 15+ hour days. Its settling down now after 3 month of pre christmas insanity so I can catch up on my reading. I do most of my reading on audio as I'm in the car for 6 hours a day. I also get 3 to 4 hours at work before heading out on the road where I can get some in also as no customers in the wee hours of the morning :) Doors locked so they can't get in or I'm sure the would try lol


message 29: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments That's great Gillian! That's such a pain with the internet though.

15+ hour days!? Ugh. That sounds like my mom. She's constantly doing over time. What do you do if you don't mind answering?

And your in the car for 6 hours a day. But what about the move? Wouldn't you move closer to work or do you have to travel?


message 30: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments I travel for work I own and operate a post office I drive around the bush delivering mail.


message 31: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments That's a crazy coincidence. My mom works at the post office.


message 32: by Gillian (last edited Jan 05, 2017 08:14AM) (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Oh wow I'm in Australia where are you and your mum Adriana? I'm guessing the US by the way you spell mum/mom


message 33: by Adriana (last edited Jan 05, 2017 09:13PM) (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Yep, I'm in Florida. She isn't a carrier though. She works in the front and back with the customers and processing mail.

I had a feeling you were from Australia because you mentioned the bush.


message 34: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Oh and I don't know if everyone knows this but I found out earlier that you can read all of the new books in a series or from a new author and it counts!


message 35: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Is Joi and Angel still around?


message 36: by V ♡ (new)

V ♡ (letterkive) Yeah,here I am.I have been busy with college so I haven't been very active these days.But I just finished my first read :)


message 37: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Hey Angel! You are in class now? I start next week although I've had to go to seminars for student teaching. What's your major?


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments I will up my reading this week. I've been fighting a nasty cold. I didn't read a lot last week.


message 39: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Aw! Hope you feel better. I wasn't feeling to well the last two days which is why I hadn't read then either. It happens (:

What are you reading next?


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments I plan on reading Spellcaster (Spellcaster, #1) by Claudia Gray . It's a buddy read so we will get extra points.


message 41: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Oh it's by Claudia Gray. I have been meaning to read her books for a while. I recently binge watched the first season of Magicians on Netflix and it's really had me wanting to read a witchy book. Hope you love it :D

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Hey team how you all doing I have one more book to finish and get my review in. This has been the quietest group I have been in so far. I hope that means you have all been reading up a storm.


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments I posted 2 reviews today. Hopefully it will be enough to keep us in 3rd place.


message 45: by Gillian (last edited Jan 31, 2017 10:32PM) (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Well done Hanah. I just put my last in also so fingers crossed we don't drop to last place
