Nothing But Reading Challenges discussion

Thank you to whomever updated the spreadsheet! I have been on my phone but not the computer as much.

You're welcome!

I just finished Feudlings by Wendy Knight. This is for the K

Great! I updated the spreadsheet for you :-)

Awsome, I'll try to tackle another empy spot. Let you know what I come up with

Have we decided what we are doing for our next stop? I'll wait patiently if I need to...thanks!

Finished for I - Lady Iris Jordan.

I think we are missing Josie's and Eunice's vote for what to do at our next stop (on Sunday)

Week 4 - spell-it-out wins!

1st choice gets 1 pt, 2nd choice gets 2 pts, 3rd choice gets 3 pts - lowest total wins
(view spoiler)[
location - 3+1+2+2+3+2+3=16
spell - 2+3+1+1+1+3+1=12
detour - 1+2+3+3+2+1+1=14
(hide spoiler)]

location - set in or written by an author from India
spell-it-out - spell either INDIA or KOLKATA
detour - read a book with a grey cover

Sorry for the late updates, I try to respond on here when I have a chance to look at my bookshelves so I can figure out a book. If we spell it out for Kolkata I can take one of the K’s. Or if we do the detour I have a gray book. I’m fine with either.

Is everyone okay with spelling out KOLKATA rather than INDIA? It will give each of us a chance to read for the stop.

Yep, fine with me. I can do L, T, or A

I can do L, K or A.

I can do A, T, or K

I can do the 'O'.
I'm reading Royally Screwed by Emma Chase.
MC is 'Olivia'.

If you need me to read for something else...I'll look for those letters as well.

Thanks Jenny!

Hey guys I just finished my second book, it can be used for S if it's not taken yet.

Josie is down for that S - Josie how's the book coming?

Okay for now I updated the spreadsheet with the following for our next stop

Spell it out

K - Josie
O - Tammie
L - Jenny
K - Lexi
A - Lisa
T - Abir
A -

So we have K, T and A still open for next week. One of us does NOT need to read for this spell-it-out and can read any book they like. If someone really wants the L, I can step out next week and just do a free read.

I can take the T, starting it tomorrow

Finished my S book. Ship Of The Dead. Thought I was down for a K?

Great! You are now!

Eunice and Chava, I think we are just missing your two books for our most recent stop.

Eunice you were doing O, right?
Chava you're marked down for R.

Jenny wrote: "Great! You are now!"

Awesome. Thank you!

Finished Rene Denfield's The child finder for R

Are we on the Kolkata stop yet? Because I'm almost done with my T book.

Abir, I think we are just waiting for Eunice to get back to us.


But you can finish your next stop book ahead of time, we checked that in the rules, so keep reading. I'm half way through my book as well.

Jenny...you can use my O in post 527 if it helps Eunice...I'll read the next in the series for another one...

Cool! That will let us complete the last stop.

We got 25 points at our last stop - I'll send a PM to the Travel Agent.

As we are over half finished for this week's place, I had a look for next week. What does everyone think about doing the detour which is...

Read a book where the edition you are reading was published on the 3rd of a month

The place is Darwin, Australia.

I've got a detour book.. anyone else? And also a book written by an Australian author if we vote that way.

I can do the detour...

Jenny wrote: "I can do the detour..."

I can do either...I have 3 pub on the 3d and 1 set in Australia if that’s acceptable

Do we need someone to read for the last A in Kolkata?

Yes we do Lisa.

I'll get on that then.

I wonder what happened to Eunice?

I don't know. Did you try sending her a PM?

I can do the detour as well

I'm good for detour too

That's great ladies. That's five of us for the detour.

I'll be finishing the extra A book for Kolkata today.

I have a lot of books. Do I need to do the detour? If so I can probably track one down.

Here's the detour rules, Lexi. We have 5 people doing this detour so far so it meets the first rule. The more the merrier and more points so good if you have one... leave it up to you.

DETOURS
◈ Completing a detour earns the team 25 points AND
◈ If at least 7 members of the team read a book for the detour, that is an additional 15 points AND
◈ If ALL team members read a book for the time you are at the stop, that is an additional 10 points

Finished the "A" in Kolkata - Character - Jamin "Angel" Agassi.

Still working on the K. i will also look for a book that fits the detour

I found one published on the 3rd so I can help with that. I went through about 30 books to find it.
