Jenny’s comments from the We Read Stuff group.

This is my list of 10 books that I obnoxiously try to get others to read...


Top 10 of all time...(knowing it would be a different list if I wrote this last week or next week)...


Top 10 of the last year-ish...

That was quick!
Now I have to think on favorites. Hmmm...

I would like to see a list of members' favorite books. Top ten of all time, top five of the year, decade, etc. It might be a good way to get recommendations.

I am so behind in adding books to the "we read all the pages"!!!!
I will catch up someday soon.

I like group challenges. It is much more fun to motivate each other and chat in a group setting.
I have a few challenges running around in my head if you need any suggestions. If not, I look forward to what you are thinking!!!

Woohoo! It will be fun!

TT is one of the most fun challenges on Goodreads. Signups have closed, but there are always people who drop out, so go take a look, and sign up to be a reserve. It is on the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

I am hoping to read the Testaments this weekend!

Katrisa, did you sign up for Tower Teams?

Time to catch up a bit...

All of his books are different from each other. If you try another, do not expect the same type of story. I started reading him with Bad Monkeys, and was hooked for life.

Ooh, what did you think of Lovecraft Country? I thought that was such a good book, but I have enjoyed all of his stuff.

I'm not in a mad challenge right now, so I may slow down for a minute. Until the next one starts of course.

There.

They are all really different from each other. I started with Bad Monkeys when it came out, because I thought the cover looked cool. I have read everything else wrote as well. That one and Fool on the Hill are perhaps my favorites.

Ooh. I loved Lovecraft Country. Have you read any of Ruff's other books?

Sure, that sounds good.

Add them all, Regina. Anything from 2019!

I loved the Broken Earth as well. Thanks, I will move it to the top of the pile!

Katrisa, how was Black Future Month? I just bought that.

Thanks!
Seriously, give me a team challenge and I become a bit of a beast, and I am on two teams right now.
But, if you notice, most of the books are not 700 page tomes. Teehee.
