Hi Team Dionysus, just to let you know that I have messaged Megan, Amanda, and Cheyenne to ask them if they are still taking part in the challenge as we are nearly 2 weeks in and they haven't posted reviews yet. I've asked for them to get back to me within 24 hours so hopefully we will know soon ☺ Thanks ☺


message 22: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (mommy2gb) | 656 comments Sorry guys, I just got Sarahs message and I have had a lot of problems being able to get on Goodreads. I just set everything up again yesterday and will post and catch up on everything. I have finished 2 books.

Thanks, Amanda. I think we could really catch up with the other teams if all members will be posting. ;)

Hi Team Dionysus, I see that Amanda has spoken to you all, but I wanted to let you know that I also received a message back from Megan. She says that she's read 2 books, and will write and post the reviews soon ☺ I haven't heard anything back from Cheyenne yet.

Shae Petersen | 6947 comments Just added posted three reviews which were all buddy reads, so 22points woo hoo! Thank god for audio books. I’ve gone back to work full time (I’m a teacher) since having my son who is 18 months old. So I’m really feeling the hustle haha! But thank god for audiobooks. Will continue on with them on the drive 😝 anyone read anything great this month?

I saw your updates. Yay! More points for us.


message 30: by Christine (new)

Christine | 902 comments I'm sorry if I'm not giving reviews as much as before. Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time finishing Sleeping Beauties. This is my first Stephen King's book and I feel disappointed with myself for not feeling the story.


message 31: by Abby (new)

Abby | 5404 comments Don't force yourself to finish a book you don't like, Christine.

I know. I'm afraid I'll fall on a book slump but at the same time I also want to finish it. lol. As of now, I'm reading another book aside from "Sleeping beauties".
Thanks Abby


message 33: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6947 comments I have never read a Stephen king book as I am worried about getting scared haha! But I soooo want to read one as he is meant to be an amazing author. Obviously not the one your reading if it’s not any good :P hope It gets better for you :)

I guess I'm not used to reading adult books. I really want to like it and I also want to be scared. I'll be reading it again when I'll be in the mood for adult books.
