Amber and Jessica, you may now begin reading! I totally forgot to send out the group message though and remind everyone, so I thought I'd extend the deadline a little. :)

Jessica I'm about 50 pages into 1984. It's sluggish, but not too too bad.


message 17: by Sydney, Head Mod | Avid Reader | Dedicated Fangirl (new)

Sydney Humphrey (bjjgirl) | 2158 comments Mod
Haha well so far I'm still waiting on all of the books I requested from the library, but I'll jump in ASAP!

Sydney Humphrey (bjjgirl) | 2158 comments Mod
Lol nice job! I picked up four books today, so as soon as I finish Gone I'll get started! If you could please try in the future though to wait to finish (if not start!) books from the pool until the first of the month, I'd appreciate it. Otherwise it rather defeats the point of keeping points in friendly competition :P

message 25: by Amber (new)

Amber Martingale | 390 comments Are we going to have a December book pool?

I'm asking because I think I'm the only one who has posted on this topic since the 7th... .


message 26: by Sydney, Head Mod | Avid Reader | Dedicated Fangirl (new)

Sydney Humphrey (bjjgirl) | 2158 comments Mod
We will - I'll post it tomorrow, hopefully. Sorry for disappearing. It's been a long month.

On the upside, I read The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight last week and really enjoyed it! Although highly improbable, it was a cute story. I'll probably buy it :)

I started The Messenger this morning, but there was enough language in the first chapter that I'm already on the brink of not finishing it. :/


message 27: by Amber (new)

Amber Martingale | 390 comments Reality bites, Sydney.

Sorry to hear that about your problem with one book.


message 28: by Jessica (new)

Jessica I just started reading again sorry for being MIA this month. I had my little girl on nov 10th :) I'm such a happy mama but I will get right back into 1984 and really really try to finish it by the end of the month!


message 29: by Sydney, Head Mod | Avid Reader | Dedicated Fangirl (new)

Sydney Humphrey (bjjgirl) | 2158 comments Mod
Awww congratulations!!! A friend of mine told me she was pregnant last week and it made me think of you. :) STILL haven't started 1984.. Actually I spent the first half of the month trying to finish Gone from last month (which I still haven't finished btw :|)


message 30: by Amber (new)

Amber Martingale | 390 comments PMSL! Didn't I tell you last month, Sydney, that GONE WITH THE WIND wasn't worth it? At least not in my opinion.


message 31: by Sydney, Head Mod | Avid Reader | Dedicated Fangirl (new)

Sydney Humphrey (bjjgirl) | 2158 comments Mod
Actually I was talking about Gone by Michael Grant, which I'm enjoying. It's just long. I actually didn't have a chance to read Gone With the Wind before it was due back to the library.


message 32: by Amber (new)

Amber Martingale | 390 comments I stand corrected.


message 33: by Sydney, Head Mod | Avid Reader | Dedicated Fangirl (new)

Sydney Humphrey (bjjgirl) | 2158 comments Mod
No worries :)


message 34: by Jessica (new)

Jessica I'm so ashamed I didn't read one book this month :(


message 35: by Amber (new)

Amber Martingale | 390 comments Life happens, Jessica.


message 36: by Amber (new)

Amber Martingale | 390 comments I haven't decided on a theme for this month... .
