If anyone is interested in reading a Stephen King that isn't very violent, I'd recommend

I can't sleep on planes so I've been awake for about 40 hours now. Just two more hours and I'll let myself go to bed!

How was it, Natesha? I have it on my TBR to read."
I enjoyed this read. The romance between Henry and Claire was a bit much but it was still enjoyable. Due to Henry being a time traveler there was a lot of back and forth, which was kind of annoying. I still recommend it :)

I'm glad you enjoyed yourself! I've always wanted to go to Hawaii!
Welcome back Ashley. Did we get all our classes and spells submitted in time?
I head to Mexico tomorrow morning, If I seem AWOL, that's why.
Welcome back Ashley! Hawaii must have been gorgeous.

Enjoy your trip...I was there week before last...it's hot and humid this time of year...but the water! It's so wonderful!
It says high 80's, low 90's there. Which is what it is here so it shouldn't be too bad. It gets very humid here in the summer in MA so I'm hoping it won't be worse than that although I expect it will be.

Natasha and Jan,Loved Hawaii! It's pretty pricey for us Aussies there but if you're in America then you should go. I went to the north shore first and then down to Waikiki. Best way to go - then you get the country and the city.

Karen - 50 shelf 52 spreadsheet
Kate - 30 shelf 23 spreadsheet
Natesha - 21 shelf 18 spreadsheet

I double checked mine and all are entered. I show 74 complete on my shelf and they are all on the SS.

I counted 53 with my name on spreadsheet, which matches my shelf. The only difference is on the ss there is a n/a by one of my books.
Just checking in to say I am enjoying my vacation and that I saw the post for the new end date.

Glad you had a great time! I've been to Hawaii twice and really loved it.
