Nothing But Reading Challenges discussion

Yay! and when I'm done, which is pretty soon, I'll go for another one

I've finished for the H - Character Winifred "Wink" Hadrian.

I'm heading away on holidays for the next 3 weeks so won't be on Goodreads as much. I will try and post a book once a week still.

Happy reading.

I am going as quick as possible, but I have the flu

Completion post (2 days late): with Oxford on the cover.

It has been one of those weeks. I finished late Sunday.

Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee
Read 8/29, 4 stars

Finished a different book than intended, but it has a B

- character's name Ben

Planning for our next stop...

we can choose the detour Male Author Name Top 100

Or choose a spell it out or authors/stories in that country
Alor Setar or Malaysia for spell-it-out (some of us will need to read 2 books if we choose this option)
Malaysia for stories/authors Malaysian Authors or Books set in Malaysia

What do you all feel like doing at our next stop?

I would vote for either male author name detour, or the spell-it-out for Malaysia or Alor Setar (I'm good with either one).

I am voting spell it out so I can use the book I was going to use for this week's spell out :)

I finished my book for this week spell it out. Undeniably Chosen. the Character's name is Ava
I'm good with both. But if we'll do the spell it out I think we should go with Alor Setar... We can use a little bit f challenge

I'm good with Alor Setar for spell it out...

Finished

Tales of the Otherworld by Kelley Armstrong
31st August

I'm with any of the options.

If we do the spell it out I'll do the S for Sarah J Maas. Preordered Tower Of Dawn.

Finished 8/31/17

@Lisa, Lexi and Eternity - are you good with spell-it-out for our next stop? So far we are planning on

A - Abir
L - Jenny
O - Pigletto
R - Lexi
S - Josie
E -
T - Chava
A - Lisa
R - Eternity

At least one of us will need to read 2 books, if everyone else can read for at least 1 letter. I can read for two letters - the only letter NOT in my plan for next week is "O" so if someone can take that I can take two letters.

If you can't read for at least one letter next week, let us know so someone else can read for two letters.

I'll take O.

I'll take an A then, since I'm reading Madonna in a Fur Coat by Sabahattin Ali. when I'm done I'll try to takle another letter, not sure which one yet but you'll when I do

I am fine with it. You can put me down for an "R"

I'm taking either the other "R" or the "L" with RAZORBACK: gripping crime fiction, full of suspense by Lou Holly. Whatever works best for the team...

I can do the e or a for the next spell it out.

I could take the other R with Landline by Rainbow Rowell.

So we have all the letters except ETA

Lisa can take E or A

Chava what letter speaks to you?

I'll take T for Travis, character in Someone Is Watching

Cool! Lisa I put you down for the second A.

That leaves E open for whomever finishes their first spell-it-out to claim another one. Sound fair?

We now know why I can't catch my breath, I have an pneumomia. I'll try to get my reading done for the week, but health (including sleep) will have to come first.

Sounds good

Oh no! Hope you feel better soon. Take care of yourself.

Yes definitely your health comes first! Just let us know if you won't be able to read and someone else can pick up the slack!

Completed: I, Robot. This completes the "I."

Also, I completed: The Secret of Spellshadow Manor by Bella Forrest. This wasn't for a task.

Great Lexi!

@Eternity, did you finish your "N" book? We need an "N" book before we move on to the next stop.

Yes I did! I just finished All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven

Great!

We are now moving on to Alor Setar!

We earned 35 points at that stop. We now have 180 total points!

Cool, Jenny if you have that book in electronic form (Pdf or epub) could you send it to me. I've been trying to get it online with no luck. So if you can e-mail it to me I'd really appreciate it.
And I'm reading Madonna in a Fur Coat by Sabahattin Ali for this stop - The A in the author's name- But I might be late in finishing it since I'm job hunting this week and also won't check in a lot. Wish meluck.
