Hooked on Books discussion

I'll check to see if I can find the german version of The Summoner Trilogy.

Everytime I see your books, I get scared of those page numbers!

How about your libraries? Any luck?

I can take L for spellout if it is free.

I can take leg 2.

I'm almost done with my L book Jayme. For this clown, how many tasks are you planning to take?

I will take arm 2 and leg 2, demon in arm 2 and book starting with a letter in ice cream.

I am starting the book for arm 2 today. I have a book before i get to leg 2. It doesnt work for leg 2.

Okay sounds good!

Risa, can I switch your I book to V? That book fits for V for the author first name? I have an I book planned but nothing for V.

Sure!

xD This year has robbed me of my page number fear for the most of it lol

I found a solution- I switched the Summoners Trilogy for the collected works of Edgar Allan Poe, that should take me less time since it has a lot of poem pages and short stories ^^ And there's a lot of it on audible included in the membership ^^

Thank you! I see you finished an R book.

Okay 👍🏼 Though if you can't find something for the other two tasks, I will take a while to get to it 🤣 I'll look if I find something

Yes, I had to remember that myself since I wrote by mistake that we have R left lol

I could read The Godfather, A Thousand Splendid Suns, Renaissance for tagged as revenge.

Had to edit this again since I'm cleary not focused today and was looking for books for Leg 2 instead of Arm 1 🙈 I'm looking up Arm 1 now, gonna edit this later with the books I found...

Edit: Omg I found a doughnut! On my anticipated book! I feel so blessed xD
I'm taking over your Arm 1 book Jayme 👀

Nice! I will start looking for other books later, hopefully I'll get lucky too!

I started my arm 2 book today.

I'm making some good progress on The Count of Monte Cristo, but The Complete Edgar Allan Poe is taking me a bit longer than expected. Should still be fine, I can't estimate when I'll be done with my tasks exactly since I haven't started The Goldfinch yet but I think the last week of the month should still be the time it'll take me. I think my second dessert book will be a 1 day read, at most 2 so I should be able to complete all the books I currently have in the SS until end of the month. That's still a lot of time though, maybe you can find another book for your other prompt, Jayme? I think there's a lot of books tagged as revenge.

I just finished the A book and will start the I book later. Thank you for the update Risa, you're all good :)

I found books about revenge but not tagged revenge.

What are the books?

Pocketful of Rye and And Then There Were None both by Agatha Christie.

Jayme, we have to finish the spell-out first before the clown tasks. I am not done with my I book, so your book for the demon task will not count.

Then i will find something else for demon.

Jayme, And Then There Were None is tagged as revenge. Its part of this list https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1... which features revenge as one of its tags. So you're free to use it for that :)

I'm currently looking to substitute another book for my demon task, since I forgot about the monthly bonus task for the Disney challenge and the book I picked might work for it as well. Plus, it's 439 pages as opposed to the 1070 pages of The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe 🤣

I looked at that list in the beginning.

Well it's 7th on the list 🤷‍♀️

You don't need to check the book separately if the tag is on the list itself, the tags in the list are always on the book too. That's useful to know especially for books that have a lot of tags.

I need a couple of days more to finish the I book, it's not the book that I thought I would like.

No worries.

yeah dw, we have enough to read xD

do you want me to take it over tho? i have another Victoria Schwab book I can read that's also under 300 pages

It's okay, I'll get through this, thank you :)

okay, I hope the book gets better

I finished! Whew!

Nice! Did it get better?

Nah! Too many characters and wasn't able to keep up..

aww, at least you got through it 🙈

Alyana wrote: "I finished! Whew!"

Glad you finished.

Checking in. Is everyone still with us?

Yes!

yes o/

Btw Alyana, Jayme, I switched one more book out for a shorter one because I'm reading it for the Monster Hunt. I should be done with my revenge and Ice cream truck task tomorrow.

I'm reading books at the same time, so I'm finishing multiple at once instead of 1 every 3-5 days. It kind of just ended up like that 🙈

I'm doing one at a time, I'm in too many challenges and needed different books, so I'm going a little slow..

I'm here. I'm working on my second book for ice cream truck.

Good news is that I finished my demon book. Bad news is that there was no demon 😭 I'm gonna start the other two books now and focus on my demon book after, I do have books that fit the task but I thought I'd complete two tasks for different challenges for this one, that's why I picked it for the clown task too 😅 At least I should be able to finish another book until the weekend.

I’m working on my dessert book and hopefully finish the revenge one by the end of the week.

I finished my revenge book.
