Thanks, Miche!!! You're not taking part?

Not at the bingo.

I am already working at my A-Z, Incomplete Series and Overflowing Bookshelf.

I am not sure I could manage one more. :)

Ah, I see!! I am limiting myself to just one as well. There're already too many challenges in my RL job 😆 Good luck!!

Thanks Virginie! And the best part is that I wasn't planning my reads specifically to meet the categories but somehow most of them meet the criteria.

Damnnn, you're almost done with this challenge!

Oh, and I'm only on one challenge. ;)

Petrik wrote: "Damnnn, you're almost done with this challenge!"

Very close!! The BR though.. when do you want to read Troy?

Not really soon... I'll let you know when! xD

Bingo numero quattro! xD

Thanks, Petrik, for the Buddy Read.

You're welcome! And congrats!!

Congrats!

Congrats, TS!

You might start a round 2 before I complete my first one, lol

Hahaha, thank you all!

I might actually start a round two for the 2nd half of the year. ;)

Speaking of which, I just struck another one after deciding to use Frankenstein for #20 : A book by an author under 25 at the time it was published. xD

Number FIVE! Woots!

Congrats!

Miche wrote: "Congrats!"

Thank you, Miche! I see that you are having a blast reading Percy Jackson :)

TS wrote: "Thank you, Miche! I see that you are having a blast reading Percy Jackson :)"

I loved it! The next series seems interesting, but when I saw the number of pages per book I got a bit worried. I already found his books with 300-380 pages a bit repetitive, so I am not sure he can pull the 500-580 pages range.

I did think the HoO series is good although I wasn't super thrilled with the finale for a very particular reason. House of Hades is in my list of favourites.

I will keep the series in mind for later. :)

Bingo again, and two more to go!

Congrats!

Woohoo congrats!

Great job, TS! You are almost done!

Bingo! And one more to go!!!

Congrats! One more to go! :)

Thank you, my friends! I can't believe the last one left is a book I already own. Goes to show how distracted and undisciplined I have been hahaha..

Congrats! I only have one left as well, but it's the book over 800 pages x)

Thank you!
Whoooo, that is a BIG one! You can do it, I'm sure. :)

Heh, I'll manage. It'll take me forever but I will finish it ;)
