Jaclyn To find a book that qualifies for this week's genre, the mods have said:

It can be any list from a media outlet or bookstore provided you can give us a link. I personally like http://www.bookdepository.com/bestsel...

I just checked that list and 4-5 of the books I just read are on that list lol. Oh well. I still have one that's on the list, so I can read that if needed. Anyone else have any CBS's they want to read this week?

Here's Amazon's ebook list: http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/...

And book list: http://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-bo...

And B&N: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/u/barne...

It's #3 on the second link you provided of Amazon ebooks...I'm worried it changes daily though, so I'm not sure if it'll count by next Sat?

Sanskriti Nagar | 318 comments I'm reading Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth by Reza Aslan. Since it's non-fiction, it will only qualify for the letter R for the author.

I've posted the question to the mods and we'll see what they say. Maybe if we get a screenshot of it? I'll let you know, but I'm sure it will be ok.

I didn't see this book on your challenge shelf. Please make sure to add it :)


message 530: by Jaclyn (new)

Jaclyn Everyone, when you update that you've finished a book, can you please also add the date you finished it? That would be a big help! Thanks!!

Shannon (countessmom) | 4087 comments Did they make any decision about points vs timeframe? Just asking since the top two teams are less than 200 points away from 2000.

I think the consensus was to go till the end of August and whoever has the most points wins.


message 533: by Claire (new)

Claire  | 4251 comments I finished goddess test (08/10/14). I'm starting Goddess Interrupted. The following characters work: Theo, Nicholas and Ella.

Thanks So much! I think I'll take on of the E's and read Ready Player One by Ernest Cline.


message 537: by Jaclyn (new)

Jaclyn Welcome Sarah!! Glad you could join us! We'd love to get to know you...can you tell us a little about yourself?

And I'll go ahead and put you down for an E. When you finish the book, just leave a comment letting us know and the date you finished it. Oh, and if you haven't already, please create your wheel-a-thon bookshelf so I can add your link. All books you read for the challenge should be on that shelf. Let me know if you have any other questions :)


message 538: by Jaclyn (new)

Jaclyn I finished Three to Get Deadly. That one was a bit long, so I'm going to try to find another short one...

Karen said that if we think it may change from now until Saturday, to go ahead and take a screenshot of it. I'll go ahead and do that now and save it, and I'll post with the results.

(I just did it now, and the book actually moved up to #2, so we'll probably be okay anyway lol)


message 540: by Shannon (new)

Shannon (countessmom) | 4087 comments I screenshot it as well. They are probably counting downloads.

Amazon is giving it away free pre-release for Prime members.

I am a 20 year old waitress from Ohio but I'm in college for Business Economics. I read a lot of science fiction and some historical fiction, (And then every once in awhile, random genres I feel like trying out.)

This is also my first reading challenge. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone! So I guess that's all about me :)

I made my shelf and named it WheelAThon 2014. Should I comment when I start a book or when I finish? And do I need to say ahead of time what letter I'm reading? Thanks so much!

Comment when you begin a book and list how it fits. So for example I just began a book and I could say: "I started Second Sight. It fits S for title and L for character--Logan, Jennie." Everyone does it a bit differently, but it all works. You can peruse previous posts to see how each person lists their books and you can find what works for you.

That way if we need to move things around, we can see where the books fit the best. We can use title, author (first or last name) and character names (first or last names). So just list any way your book fits and what letters. Also, if you can either link the book in your comment or tell me author name. A lot of times there are multiple books with the same title, and I need to make sure to find the correct one to link in our results post. And then when you finish a book, comment again letting me know and the date you finished it. Thats pretty much it! I hope you have fun with us! We've enjoyed ourselves so far :)

Oh and the deadline for this week is Saturday 8 pm (CST). So just make sure to have your book(s) read and shelved by then. If you need any help let us know.

When does school start for you?
