Vavita's Neverending Readathon List
Wow, you already have a TBR? Way to go Vavita!
Those are the books for the challenge of the Specfic group LOL!
Lol, I guess I could list some of those as well, but my October is already so full with buddy reads!
My October is looking more relaxed by now! I even started listing some stuff… 😝 https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
I am getting tomorrow an exchange student. I hope I can do some reading at some point…
Change of plans:Former TBR is obsolete. I am not a person who can plan much in advance…
I am moving on with The Whispering Muse which I left unattended for a week.
Then, I am Starting with the 10th Fred Vargas: A Climate of Fear. This is a great series!
Stolen Tongues is a free audible so just something for in-between…
Have fun, Vavita! I have the first Fred Vargas on my shelf….
How did it go Vavita? Did you finish The Whispering Muse?I think I need to start reading Fred Vargas.
How did you like Stolen Tongues?
I didn’t finish. I went out to vote and fell on the street. My knee was bleeding a lot and I twisted my ankle again!I came back home, had some pills, and just fell asleep. I was in so much pain! Still am…
Oh no, I am so sorry to read that, Vavita! I hope your knee is otherwise ok!
Oh no, I’m so sorry Vavita! Hope you’ll recover soon!
Mod
Take care Vavita! Hope you are better soon.
Not sure what I will read on next week's readathon. I am currently reading:Desesperación - Stephen King
Pago sangriento - Elizabeth George
Maybe I will just try to finish one of those…
I will mostly just do mood reading and see what my library has to offer. Maybe something from the old TBR pile…
Sounds fun, Vavita - I love Stephen King!
At the end of a readathon i often find myself with several books just started, so finishing the one you are reading seems a very nice idea!

I have a sweet spot for murder, blood, and dismemberments so I am quite happy right now with Desperation. In general, I enjoy King's plots and character developments.

Looks like a great readathon, Vavita!
I'm doing this for years and I still have my lessons learned lol
Vavita wrote: "Go away or send them away!"So, next time we rent a cabin as well? Somewhere in the middle between us? 😏
How did you like the Arden?
I am not crazy about The Warm Hands… it is not bad but it is just too simple so far. There is not much going on…
Yes! I think you should rent a cabin as well! Can definitely recommend it!
I agree about having the family around. They just don't get it if they are not readers. Hope to see you in July at the next one.
I understand the family interruptions! It's taken years, but they now know to leave me alone for 24 hours. Regardless, you probably got more reading time than usual. Hope to see you next time!
