And they're already 100 ahead..

At least Life After Life will give 12 points. When I get around to finishing it (not sure when).

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I thinking about finishing Before She Ignites tomorrow. Depends what I have to do in the lab. I'll listen to the Star Touched Queen tomorrow too hopefully :)

How would you even go about getting that popular? It just sucks that you have to make videos to do it. Like sometimes people just aren't good with public speaking and aren't comfortable with videos so don't have as much opportunity.

Did you like it? End well?

Yes I love VA! This is a reread for me so I remember the major end events. And I have no idea how you get a channel popular. If you don't like public speaking you can run a book blog and post reviews there. You can use that to ask publishers for books as well. My friend actually just did that.

Unfortunately the only books I own/can read from that list I either have already read or I haven't read a previous book. :/

I'm going to read Crimson Death (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #25) by Laurell K. Hamilton that month I think and save my other Laurell K Hamilton books for then as well as it's a long series and the last few books are 500+ pages. :)

Elizabeth Emily Browne (snakesandladderrs) | 2186 comments I'm slowly but surely posting my reviews so I'll have four or five to post when I get those up. I've been to the docs and been put on antibiotics for bronchitis😫 I'm on a 7-3 today so I'll hopefully get some reading done when I get home. Thursday and Friday I'm working a 9-9 and a 9am -10pm so I won't get much reading done then😒 just want to stay in bed and read😂

Are you actually allowed to work that much? What do you do?

I won't be on my laptop much at all tomorrow. Working 8:30-3:30 and then got a 2hr drive and then I'm going to be working on rearranging my bookshelves and having some family time. And I also have to fit in some study at some point... So yeah I'll get a good chunk of audio done in the car but that's it. Off to sleep now night night :)

Hope you feel better soon with those meds Lizzie!

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I finished Altered. I'll post both Dead Girls Dance and Altered in a bit.

I think I'll read my Den of Shadows book today since it's short and try either Fireblood or A Poison Dark and Drowning as well. :)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments Oh I bet! I've had a chronic sinus infection and it's the worst.

After the Star Touched Queen I think I'll listen to Dead Girl's Dead and Midnight Bites


message 720: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I finished the Star Touched Queen today and I'm about halfway done with The Dead Girls' Dance. And still chugging along on Before She Ignites which I think I can finish tomorrow. Depends how much I read tonight.

I'm 46% into Life After Life, but not sure when I'll get much more reading done. Just got my boxed set of Seven Realms series by Cinda Williams Chima, which I am so keen to read! And I almost feel like I'm slumping. I mean, I'm still reading, but the idea of having so many books that I'm behind on is not helping my motivation.

Now on to start rearranging my bookshelves. Not reading today.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I've hit my monthly reading slump guys. :(

I'm going to get out of my slump tomorrow xD been in one because of my urge to do my bookshelves and now they're done I'll get back into it. planning on finishing a small one tomorrow and then starting another that will still only get 3 points :/ reading lots of pointless books lately. but back into it tomorrow along with study.

I'll post a picture of my shelves tomorrow

It's not super spoilery and it's not as detailed so I still don't know exactly what's happening. Also it's helping because after book 2 I didn't know if I wanted to continue the series.
