Update: 73% done, location 3017/4217, Kindle, middle of chapter ... meant to put this update in a few days ago and got sidetracked and then forgot. Hope to finish the book soon.

Question for anyone who can answer: When doing the annual reading challenge, can/do audiobooks count towards the total books read for that year? I don't usually do audiobooks however Spotify has a couple available that I'd like to give a try and wanted to know that, if completed, if I can include them in my count for 2026 (since I probably won't start til after the new year)?

Pat IV, Chapter 67 "In the Viper Pit" ... still a good read, enjoying it a lot. Digital edition (epub) - 80.59% completed.

Chapter 42,, pg 366/433 ... finishing up, kind of hate to see it end.

Chapter 39, page 347 of 433, paperback -- just updating.
Really enjoying it, almost hate to see it end. Already looking forward to next book by this author as I love her stuff and I've read everything else she has put out.

Ms Bonesteel, many thanks for your writing and your books!! I absolutely love them.

Chapter 22, page 193, print book / paperback ... Just updating. Almost 1/2 way through.

Chapter 9, page 87 ... just updating.

Really enjoying, just having had much time to read the last few days or so .... knee pain has just been so incredibly bad, despite meds, arthritis ointments and so on, makes hard to concentrate sometimes ... hoping next few days are better, maybe get some reading done.

Chapter 5, page 49 ... updating\

I've read the previous 3 books so I had to laugh when I read the following: "You always try," Bob grumbled, as the three of them left the infirmary, "but none of you ever succeed."

Updating: 70.87% done, Part III, Chapter 59 "The Water's Edge" - middle of chapter - e-book (Aquinas Reader)

Updating: Chapter 2, page 21, paperback.
I waited a long time for this book, just got it last week. Have been getting sidetracked with other things so not being able to just sink into it. I'm looking forward to reading it all though!!!! Page count is actually 429.

Question: Book I just started, listed it as "currently reading" however it doesn't show up so I can update reading progress. Where/How do I do that if it isn't showing up under "Currently Reading"? This has never happened before.

Just updating - digital format, epub - Part III Chpt 59 "The Water's Edge" - 69.48% completed.

Updating: Page 313, Chapter 51 "The Glass Casket", 62.4% completed, digital format

Does anyone know if the 2025 reading challenge thing has come up yet?

Been thinking ... been a long long time since I've read any "classics" so my tentative plan for my reading challenge next year is to get in a couple of classics (that I haven't already read). What about you? Any tentative plans on books for the 2025 reading challenge??

I had started this book so long ago, more than a year or so, and don't recall what I read, so just starting it over again - so update: 2% done, digital/Kindle for PC, ARC version (yeah, told you it was a long time!), location 24/4577.

Just updating - Kindle for PC - location 5145/5741, 91% completed, chapter 36 ... hoping to finish this soon.

81% done, chapter 32, location 4574/5741, Kindle for PC (Windows app) -- just updating.

66% done, location 3736/5741, chapter 26, digital, Kindle for PC ... updating

62% done, location 3498/5741, "REBELLION", Kindle for PC, ARC ... just updating.

via Kindle app for computer: 56% done, location 3146/5741, chapter 22 ... I've been enjoying it, one of my fave authors, just that (bad) depression, anxiety and chronic pain, along with real life, have cut in and made it difficult for me to focus on anything for a long period of time.

Location 2889/5741 - 51% done - Chapter "Mission year 40, day 132" - Kindle for PC (I've been bouncing between the Kindle app on my tablet, and the Kindle app for PC) - just updating -- enjoying the book and hope this marks a return to reading. Been in a kind of "grief mode" for the last 1.5 years.

update: 43% done - location 2452/5741 - digital edition (Kindle) - Chapter "ARCHIVE #7004" -- it's nice to get a little bit of reading.

Just updating - I think I've got the Kindle apps on tablet and computer sync'd up (hopefully) ... update: 35% done, location 2045/5741 ... middle of chapter 11 (I think!?) .... haven't really read anything in about a year so it feels kinda good to be reading... depression sucks, especially when it takes away the things you enjoy.

Just a heads-up -- I'm not actually deleting/removing books from my list(s), I'm just removing duplicates of the same book so there is only 1 book "representing" the book(s) I want to read. I didn't want authors and/or other book lovers to think I didn't want to read a book anymore.

I'm still here, still around. Have had a rough last year or so - since about June or July of 2021... personal stuff which triggered my depression, insomnia and other stuff in to overdrive. With that, I know that my well-intentioned 2022 book challenge will not be met, so just gonna read "whatever" and try again next year. So, happy reading everyone.
