Hello, ladies! Anyone have specific plans for their books? I'm kicking around a few options. I'm expecting a book with a horse cover in the mail, but am not sure if it will come this week. I may end up just counting the standalone book I'm in the middle of, an old mystery.

Hi Ladies! Glad to be part of your team.

So my plan will be to try to read a book with whatever category is called, but if I don't have that or need to read a different book, I will probably go for option 2.

As far as my plan for finishing the categories. I will see what is called and how our bingo looks and will try to tackle the ones first which will give us our bingo the fastest :-)

For Horse: or
Standalone:

Please welcome Stacy to your team. :)

Welcome Stacy :-)

Hello! SUPER glad to be a part of the team!!!

HORSE:

I was wondering if it was you - glad to be on your team :-)

So awesome to be on a team with GR Friends! This will be fun!!

I'm happy about being on with friends, also. It will be fun getting to know each other a bit better!

Hi everyone!! psyched to play Bingo! :)

Hi, Dizzy!

So I decided on my book. I'm reading a vintage mystery, The Postmaster's Daughter, and am on P. 123 out of 307 pages. I decided to go ahead and read a standalone rather than hope that my review book (A Most Noble Heir) comes in the mail before Thursday and that I have time to read it.

Also, I'm going to count Beneath the Surface as my free space book, since I'm also currently reading that one. I just started the first few chapters last night and am hooked! I have about 250 pgs to go to finish it.

Anyone else have ideas for their free space books?

(Edit: I know there's no real deadline, but if I don't stay on top of things and read my book per week I'll be sadly behind.)

Hi everyone!

I believe I will be reading as a standalone option. I have it on request at my library and it says that it is in transit there now. So I should have it soon.

I enjoyed that one Brittany!!

Loved this

Hi team! I am going to read for this week, as it is a standalone. :)

Great job on finishing yours, Sarita! I finished mine last night and just need to add the review.

Thanks Hannah. Didn’t think I would finish it so soon. :-)

I finished and loved it!

It was really good! I liked it more than her last 3 books.

I haven't read her recent books. I enjoyed The Atonement Child, Redeeming Love, and the Mark of the Lion series, but those were all from quite a while back. This is the first book by her recently that has drawn my interest enough to read it. So glad I did!

All those you mentioned is my favourites of hers, And now the masterpiece as well :-)

Whew! Finished my horse novel just in time for the next category to be called. Super excited to see what will be called next!!

Brittany, I loved The Atonement Child, Redeeming Love, the Mark of the Lion series and The Masterpiece. I didn't love A Bridge to Haven.

Staci, looks like we have similar taste in her books!

We do Brittany!!

Just finished a novel...ready for the next category to be called. :-)

Just need to get my review up today. :)

Hello! I am glad our new category has been called...tree. Now to decide what to read. Sarita and Melanie, thank you both for sharing suggestions!!!

Yes! Tree works well with my next planned read.

You're welcome - there was actually a few good ones.

It's nice that we have so many options for this week's challenge! I am expecting The Weaver's Daughter soon. For now, that is my plan. I'll choose a different option if it doesn't arrive in the next couple of days.



On another note, horse and tree do not appear to have us working toward a bingo.

Yes, but then the game won't be over so soon :-)

My current book - - I will use for the free space.

So agree Sarita!!! Let the game linger....

Yeah, no hasty bingo here. More lasting fun. :)

I'm reading , which does have a tree on the cover.

I plan to read , which works for tree or the letter F. :-)

And trees on the cover :-)

So looking forward to that one Brittany!!! I just discovered Jennifer Rosewald this year.

Hi all - I'm going to read for the tree theme. :)

Hello team. My first choice novel for the tree challenge hasn't arrived yet. :-(

Fortunately, I have several back-up options. Now for which one..

I finished for the tree category.

Nice! So looking forward to reading that one.

I'm reading for tree (tree in back ground)

Hey guys!! I apologize for being so slow - things have been crazy and I got kinda sidetracked with my reading, so I'm going to use my freebie for week 1/horse/standalone. I'm reading my tree book now and should finish soon. And for my free space book I'm going to read . :)

Nice to see you around...hope things slow down a bit for you soon, Dizzy!

I used for my free space.

Hello Dizzy!

I've just posted my review for tree. 2.5 hours until the next category is called. I am so not patient...

I'm not patient either, Staci! :)
