  5. I have had 13 Reasons Why on my TBR list for quite some time. I am anxious to hear how you like it!

    You are doing great --- I do not plan to read into the wee hours of the night, but rather get up and start over again (hopefully refreshed) tomorrow.

  8. Final Fantasy X is my favorite of all FF (I played 7, 8, 9, 10, and X-2)! I can't even begin to express how much I love the story :)

  15. Thanks everyone! I am pretty overwhelmed by all the comments.

    As for 0 minutes of distraction: Once one of the cats is sleeping on me, the other leaves me alone - and as soon as I'm into the story, I won't hear much...

    And mini-challenges? Those were my down fall earlier this year, so I was very, very selective this time around. Lesson learned ;-)

    Reviews will be up next weekend or the week after, I hope, so check back here, if you would like to know what I thought of the books!
