Katherine (katkattrinn) | 760 comments I think Ezin got to me with all that fly thing, because the next my book will be Fifty Shades Freed (Fifty Shades, #3) by E.L. James

579 pages the will get 40 points. Has a number in the title then I will get 20 points.

The authors name is E.L. James so would i get the points for Author Initial? EL

If I found a book, with mechanism which looks like clock mechanism, then I can use it on Mini?

I'm about halfway through that one now :)

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 7439 comments Katherine it looks like clock mechanisms but without it actually showing the clock I'm gonna have to say no to it fitting the mini.

Nichole are you liking it?

I found some zombie fairy tales....score! I think I'll check one of them out next instead.

Steph Ann | 509 comments I'm definitely going to have to make time for zombie fairy tales! :)

I'm really enjoying Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer too, Kat! I read it for the first time back in January, but I wasn't sure how I would feel about it re-reading it so soon. I'm just as caught up in it as I was the first time!

Nichole | 1862 comments I should finish Snow A Retelling of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs by Tracy Lynn tonight or maybe tomorrow. It's worth 195 points! It's okay but I do tend to wander, lol.

My husband put on a movie last night and then almost immediately fell asleep in his chair. He was snoring SOOO loud!!! I don't know how he didn't wake himself up, lol! I watched the movie though :)


message 216: by Jenne (new)

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 7439 comments I'm 30% into it Nichole. It's alright so far readable but not great.
Lol at the hubby! Mines not too bad every now and then.
Glad y'all are enjoying Cinder. It's a good one, I like the narrator. I'm up to #3 on that series maybe I'll start the audio of it after I finish my current audio.


message 217: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm about 35% into my book and so far I'm really enjoying it. I didn't get much reading done today cause I worked then tonight I went to see San Andreas with my bff. The movie was really good, not a huge fan of the Rock but this was one of his better movies ☺

Christina T (crysteena73) | 963 comments There is a series by Marina Myles called The Cursed Princes all are fairy-tale romances but not enough people have shelved them to count according to the rules. Yet the 3rd book Sleeping Beauty and the Demon has Fairy Tales shelf on the first page 4th down. Is there any way these can be approved as retelling anyway?

it's definitely worth seeing on the big screen the effects are amazing! and it has a pretty good story behind it as well, it gave me a few scares and made me cry, so very good movie in my book :)

I'm pretty sure Christina that if the book is a fairy tale re-telling it can still be used even if it's not on any list but I think the story line has to be pretty obvious that it's based on a fairy tale.

Also thanks for the suggestion I added the series to my fairy tales shelf incase I ever want to check them out :)


message 222: by Jenne (new)

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 7439 comments Yeah if you know it's one and it's not been shelved enough or put in a list you're good :)

Both the ones I'm working on work for the task and I know I'll at least have one of them done today, maybe two depending on homework.

Katherine (katkattrinn) | 760 comments Two questions.
Crimson Bound by Rosamund Hodge
1. Do in this book is enough red?
2. Will I get the points for name. Because Crimson means red. (Red Riding Hood)

I just finished that book. It reminded me of Grave Mercy but the romance wasn't as prominent or enjoyable.

Then I think you can't use these words too: Little, Wee, Small.
Because they are synonyms, just like red, crimson, scarlet.

Steph Ann | 509 comments I have a review book I need to finish tonight. I don't think I can count that towards this challenge since I started it prior to the 17th, correct?

Tomorrow, I'll be starting Cursed Moon (The Prospero's War, #2) by Jaye Wells . It should be good for the main task (there's a red symbol on the left side of the cover - if that's not enough red, Jenne, let me know!) as well as the mini challenge (Moon in the title).

Snooping on my girls. What are y'all doing tonight? I took the day off and went to have a girls day with my daughter. We got mani-pedi and our hair done. Then we had chipotle together. I just got home and my sons are pissed. LOL

I told hubby to do that. He said it was hot outside 95 degrees and he didn't want to go to the park. He took them to chipotle but didn't let them eat there.
My 6yr old Said "mommy can I go with you next time to the salon?"
I felt bad but that's on daddy.
