Ouch! Really wrong time for the maintenance....

So hard to choose my favorite read from this year 😭 Just took a quicklook at my reading log spreadsheet and I gave 4 and 5 star ratings to all the books I read by Tessa Bailey, Gena Showalter and Nalini Singh. I also did a reread of Harry Potter from Book 1 - 5. Naturally those were given high ratings. A few Sandra Brown books as well and

Then there were a few nonfiction books that I really, really enjoyed:

I’ll be done with my A book in two to three days

As I just finished my A book and started another it might be some time before I get to the book. If someone wants to read the letter sooner, that works too.

Done :) updated the spreadsheet. We can move to the next leg.

Why there are no points awarded/noted in the spreadsheet?

What the.....
I’ll see if I can fix the points over the weekend.

Next stop is
San Jose del Cabo (MX) - Boa Vista (BR)

Boa Vista is the capital of the Brazilian state of Roraima. Situated on the western bank of the Branco River, the city lies 220 km from Brazil's border with Venezuela. It is the only Brazilian state capital located entirely north of the equator.

Should we spell it out or read a book or author from Brazil?

The detour: Read a book that has the birthstone Turquoise in the text or title

Boa Vista as spell-out would be nice. Or Brazil?

More of us could get involved with Boa Vista.

All fixed....

So are we doing the spell-it-out then?

I would prefer the spell it out as my current book would work.

I would like to get off the train. I thoroughly enjoyed the journey so far. Thanks :)

Good luck Kavitha...

So, let’s spell out Boa Vista.
Please fill,out the spreadsheet with the book you want to read.

Boa Vista

B
O
A - All the Light We Cannot See

V
I
S
T
A

I can take B and S

Boa Vista


B - Wolf
O
A - All the Light We Cannot See

V
I
S - Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain
T
A

I hope it's ok for you, Wolf, that I take the S since you said that you can take both letters.

Yeah. It's fine.

I’ll take the A if that works

I can do the T. Will have a look for the other letters later

I'm reading Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen if that will help

I added my O to the spreadsheet.

I’ll check in the morning and fill in one of the books.

I also added my S-book to the spreadsheet (but changed it to Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder).

I've just added a couple of things to V and T. Am going to check the listopia for this stops task as well

I'm also reading Purple Hibiscus for school. Guess I will bank these books if they don't fit.

I just added books for B and A.

I can add a book for I, but don't want to claim it if someone is reading for this.
Let me know and we can move to Dakar

If we do spell-it-out for Dakar, it may be a quick one :)

I added my 'I' book to the spreadsheet. So we are good to start the next one.

Spell-it-out for Dakar then?

YEP... i agree with the spell-it-out
...any objections

DAKAR
D
A
K
A
R

Great! I can take the D.

Great! Let me see what I can take. Can I use an author's last name for spell it our or I book I had to re-read twice in a row for different classes?

Yes, You can use the author's last name

I've filled in one of the As. Can fill in the other as well if you want, or leave it for someone else

I can also fill in one of the A‘s with „Ink“ from Alice Broadway. I will write it in the spreadsheet

Oh okay. The A‘s are already taken. I look what I can fill instead

I can take the R
Looks like only the K needs to be completed

Great!

Still needing someone to complete the K. We need 5 different members. Franziska, do you perhaps something for the K? Or Wolf?

Sorry I had forgotten about this challenge.
