I’m not certain which one, but I have a nagging feeling I typed in either The Lost Bones or The Awakening into the books completed twice. Hopefully, you can disregard the extra entry. Sorry about that. 🙁
Kimberly
No worries Sophia. It happens to all of us.
Aly P
This readathon is good for my TBR! I read 2 books from it and started the 3rd!

Looks like so much fun.

Does rereading/relistening count?
I am reading a cozy mistery now, but also relistening to the In Death series by JD Robb
Kimberly
I have no issues with that.
AlyP
Thanks!

Yay! I don’t have to work for the next few days, so I’ll hopefully get lots of reading done. Well, AFTER I clean the house. It’s scary in here, but not in a good way. Thanks for hosting the readathon.
