Carolyn | 2247 comments I was planning to read these books.
Replica (Replica, #1) by Lauren Oliver , The Mystery of Hollow Places by Rebecca Podos , and Between the Notes by Sharon Huss Roat . These are my beach reads for next week. I'm not sure what I will read after that. Oh. I will probably still be reading Girl in Pieces by Kathleen Glasgow by the first 2 days of August. I will just count what I read in August for that.

@Jacquelyn - Welcome to the team! I've added you to the member list and have checked you in! :)

@Elizabeth Emily - I'm also going to work in a couple of hours so I'm planning to catch up on reading this evening. I finished last night on page 178 of Seeker!

@Grace - Would you want to start Fire (Graceling Realm, #2) by Kristin Cashore August 4? Or is that too soon?

**I also added the point system to the team member list so everybody doesn't have to scroll down to find it!
