#bookisholympics Its 12.15am Sunday here so I've officially finished the olympics. Yay! As well as the nine books here, I also finished The Glass Room by Ann Cleeves & I got through half of A Court of Thorns & Roses. So all up its 10.5 books in 7 days. I'm quite proud of that, though I do have a lot more free time than most people competing, but hell. Not bad for a self taught reader! #goingforplatinum🏅🏋

#bookisholympics #bookeleven Thought I'd give it a last minute rush to midnight, 3hrs away here, and try for book11. This sounds intriguing, & it's been recommended by litsyiers as well. Feyre is a huntress, but after killing a magical creature she's imprisoned in an enchanted court by her enemy. But she's drawn to her captor, and her feelings start to burn through every warning she's been given. Wish me luck🤘#goingforplatinum🏅

AnnaDesourdy It's very good but to me this one was just a means to get to ACOMAF which was mind-blowing!!! 8y
AliBG I'm with @AnnaDesourdyAuthor on this. I chomped through ACOTR thinking it was delicious, but then read ACOMAF and could.not.believe what Maas does. Amazing and ten times as delicious. 8y

#bookisholympics #bookten I decided to go with Vera for my tenth book. Dark Matter was so deep & twisted I thought I good old fashioned murder would be the best palate cleanser!😋 Detective Joe Ashworth & his daughter are on the train when he realizes the woman in the corner isn't breathing. No one saw the murder happen, though the train was full. DI Vera Stanhope goes to quiet Mardle to investigate, but locals are clamming up. #goingforplatinum🏅

[DELETED] 2232195534 Wanted to tell you to go with Vera before! Yay! I got to meet Ann Cleeves this spring. I'll have to do a blurb about and show a picture. She is an amazing advocate for libraries! 😀 8y
Lizpixie @kaysreadinglife oh lucky you! I love both her Vera & Shetland books, and I love the Tv series for both. Brenda Blethyn makes a terrific Vera & the scenery in Shetland blows me away.🇬🇧 8y

#bookisholympics #booknine Thank you guys so much for recommending this book! As you can probably tell by how long it took me to read it, I loved it! It was even more mind bending than Inception & I love that movie. Had to give it a thumbs up even though it hurt. I hope to god that this science stays theoretical & some numbnut scientist doesn't invent this machine. I mean, hasn't science done enough to this world. Really. #goingforplatinum🏅

Laura317 From your lips to God's ear! No kidding!!! 😳 8y

#bookisholympics #booknine Halfway through this mindf**k of a book. I kinda understood about Schrödinger's cat before reading this, but, if this is scientifically accurate, I now understand it more. It's terrifying, but at the same time, the thought that there may be a world where I'm not sick makes me happy... No, it's terrifying, and very much envy inducing. #catstate #goingforplatinum?

Laura317 Yes! 8y
Reviewsbylola My sister finished this last night and raved about it so I am definitely going to read it ASAP. 8y
mhillis Can't wait to read this! 8y
Varshitha I started listening to this and I'm liking it so far.. 8y

#bookisholympics #bookeight I know it's only seven books, but I thought I'd see how many I can read in the week allotted. Plus, coffecup bin! The book was the 23rd Inspector Banks novel & was 480pges. I love this series, but it's starting to show "old characters syndrome" starting to get a bit tired. That said, it was an enjoyable crime novel about a jimmy saville type entertainer & the murder of a young girl. 4?#goingforplatinum?

mhillis Way to go🏆🏅 Love the coffee cup bin!! 8y
Lizpixie @mhillis thank you! The hubby likes to show up with amusing presents for me, he also bought me a coffee travel mug that looks like a camera lens.📷 8y
BookishFeminist I love the bin as well! ☕️ and way to go! You're just flying through these books and it's awesome. 8y
TeR OMG! I have that coffee bin! I made my husband buy it for me... Every time I use it , I smile😄 8y
neet_reads I didn't know I needed a new bin until now! ❤️☕️ Thanks for also convincing me to get the new Inspector Banks. Shopping spreeeeee 8y
