Kerry said...

J. Kaye, can you edit Mr Linky for me please? I posted my book as by Joan Lindskold, but she's JANE Lindskold. Duh! Thanks.

J. Kaye Oldner said...

Kerry ~ Done! :)

I must be thick, because for the life of me I can't work out how to set up the hyperlink.

krin said...

My first library book for this challenge was Merchants' War by Charles Stross. My thoughts are here.

J. Kaye said...

I think all the titles above are posted. Please double check to make sure. I don't want to miss anyone.

BookPsmith said...

I read a series of four books but reviewed them under one post. They were all books from the library:) Here is a review for the Mrs. 'Arris goes to series...

drey said...

J.Kaye ~ I screwed up Mr. Linky #127. Could you please edit & fix? Pretty please? The name should be Two for the Dough. Thank you!

Kitten said...

Just put up my first library review! More to come...I dig my local library!

Margot said...

Just remembered to post my reviews. Had to six at once! I'll try not to do that again.

Diane said...

This link is great when it's working. Thanks again; I am caught up for January now.

Yooperchick said...

Sorry I flooded the list with 30-ish at once. Now that I know what I'm doing, I'll try to add as I go along, instead of a big dump at the end of the month! :)

Kitten said...

I'm digging this library challenge!

Nymeth said...

Eek, sorry J. Kaye! I clicked "submit" by accident and it entered what I had last entered on a Mr. Linky. The review is actually the same, but I meant to change it to the right format. Sorry!

Angelica Joy said...

Sorry everyone 315 is meant to be "Dead Until Dark" by Charlaine Harris

Mary said...

Oops. 419 should be The Sixteen Pleasures.

DreamQueen said...

Mr. Linky isn't working for me either so here are my library book reviews so far:

Jenny Girl said...

Sorry I posted to the wrong Mr. Linky I think I have it now

drey said...

Popped in to add my books. I signed up for 25, and am up to 28 so far, with 1 more review in process, and 6 more books on my shelf... I'll just keep adding, even though I'm officially "done'.

Lynne said...

Could you please remove #561? I had already posted this one. Thanks.

mannequin said...

The challenge sure is doing wonders for me. I'm back to regular reading since I've joined up; thanks!

Kat at Book Thingo said...

I can't seem to add my reviews via Mr. Linky, so here are mine so far:
The Spaniard’s Baby Bargain by Helen Bianchin
John Riley’s Girl by Inglath Cooper
The New Man by Janice Kay Johnson
Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

Plus, I've kept a list of all the library books I read here, and there was a link to this challenge in my local library's newsletter. :-)

J. Kaye said...

Kat at Book Thingo ~ It's not you. I just tried and can't get it to post either...it was just working...hmmmm...

Tricia said...

Hi J Kaye,
Can you delete #661 for me? I put in the wrong link. Thanks!

Natasha @ Maw Books said...

I swear I had entered in my links previously but I'm updating my challenge blog and see now that I hadn't added any of them here! I don't expect you to come visit all the links I just put in. I signed up for the 50 book challenge and I'm more than halfway there with 36. Hmm . . . maybe you need to add an option for a 100. :) Thanks!

J. Kaye said...

Natasha @ Maw Books - Holy Cow! That's a lot of books. :)

GeraniumCat said...

Hi J. Kaye, I'm sorry, I put my name in rather than the book's! 715 should be Pride and Prescience (it's an amazing total to have reached already, by the way - what a great challenge).

J. Kaye said...

GeraniumCat - All fixed!

Mary said...

J. Kaye, error on #786. I goofed but I entered it correctly on 787.

J. Kaye said...

Mary ~ Thanks for letting me know! I removed the link. :)

Jules said...

One more book to go! I hope everyone else is doing well, and having as much fun as me :)

Natasha @ Maw Books said...

Thanks J. Kaye! I just added five more links. I believe I'm up to forty on this challenge and loving it!

J. Kaye said...

Natasha @ Maw Books - You are almost done! Way to go!!

Lissa said...

Hey J. Kaye, I'm sorry you are having problems with spammers, that is never any fun. when you have time, can you add a book to the list for me please? It is Knit Two and the link is here:

http://lissaslongyarn.blogspot.com/2009/05/knit-two.html

thanks in advance. =D

BooksPlease (Margaret) said...

Can you add A Severed Head by Iris Murdoch to the list please?

Here is my link.

gaby317 said...

I'm sorry J.Kaye. I think I made a mistake and posted my name fo r#892 when I meant to upload the link to my review

http://startingfresh-gaby317.blogspot.com/2009/05/review-of-dragon-scroll-by-ij-parker.html

I reviewed The Dragon Scroll by I.J. Parker.

I clicked on Mr. Linky and then pasted the url with the review. Is that the right way to do it?

I'm sorry for the inconvenience!!

gaby317 said...

Thanks, J.Kaye!

I've just finished reviewing A Dog About Town by J.F. Englert.

here's the link
http://startingfresh-gaby317.blogspot.com/2009/05/book-review-dog-about-town-by-jf.html

I tried uploading it through Mr Linky as well.

gaby317

gaby317 said...

I think that 899 should read A Dog About Town but instead it has my name gaby317.

I think I've figured out how to do it though and I won't make this mistake again. I'm sorry!

gaby

J. Kaye said...

gaby317 ~ All fixed. :)

isk8jewel said...

This is such a great idea! I hope I did this right because I'm new to this bit of bloggy technology.

Pam said...

Since I'm late signing up for this challenge I just posted several reviews. Glad to be a part of the fun!

J. Kaye said...

Great job, Pam! I need to get mine done soon.

J. Kaye said...

Julie/isk8jewel ~ Nope, but no worries. I signed you up in the right place. This is the page to link our book reviews.

Beth F said...

Mr. Linky is hiding today:

Thanks!

gaby317 said...

JKaye,
I'm sorry but I posted my name in 947 instead of the title of the book! Please delete 947. I was able to upload the title afterwards though. Sorry about that!

merrimerri said...

My book reviews are at..
http://merrimerri.wordpress.com/library-challenge/

(I wasn't sure if I should post the link her, but here it is anyway..lol!
I have 5 listed so far(and just started the last week of May)
One more review coming up in a day (I think!)
:)

J. Kaye said...

gaby317 ~ All fixed! Thanks for letting me know!

J. Kaye said...

merrimerri ~ Only if you post them separately. Since you post them all together, wait for the completed list and then link that to the completed page list.

Hope that makes sense.

eums [: said...

My review is up!
Sorry Kristie, I completely plagarized your comment.

gaby317 said...

I've just uploaded my review for Good Things by Mia King. Thanks!

Gaby

Natasha @ Maw Books said...

I'm back playing catch up with five more reviews. Thanks!

Mary said...

Here's my latest library book review:
http://bookfan-mary.blogspot.com/2009/07/bbaw-info.html

(I entered it in Mr. Linky but didn't see it show up)

J. Kaye said...

Mary ~ I just sent you an email...it's there. This is something new with Mr. Linky. When you enter your URL, it doesn't show up. You have to refresh the page to see it.

Becca said...

Entered my review for Milk Eggs Vodka. I thought I had done so before but I don't see it so I'll try again. Maybe it was deleted because the review isn't very good. Oh well, the worst that can happen is it gets deleted again. :)

J. Kaye said...

Becca ~ Heaven forbid! Mr. Linky has serious issues from time to time. You have to sort of check up on him.

Elizabeth said...

Will you be organizing this challenge again for 2010? I found it made me more aware of where I get my books.

J. Kaye said...

Elizabeth - A post is already set up. Look in the left hand sidebar and click on Library Challenge.
