Third CBR9 Donation to the American Cancer Society

November 17, 2017 by MsWas 2 Comments

I’m happy to announce our third CBR9 donation to  The American Cancer Society for Cannonball Read 9, in the amount of $100! Thanks to another generous donor, all donations through today were matched dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000. So our donation really counted for $200! That brings our total for the year so far to $500. Find out what else you can do to help our mission to fight cancer.

October stat round-up!

November 16, 2017 by ingres77 14 Comments

So, I’ve been struggling to get these monthly stat round-ups out the last few months. I’m really sorry about that. I know this isn’t the most important thing in the world, but some of you look forward to them, I think. Part of my problem was a lingering illness (which I can’t seem to shake), but part of it is, predictably, time constraints. As you can imagine, this is very time consuming (though, I do enjoy it), and it’s far from my only hobby. Beyond […]

Quick Questions with a Cannonballer: scootsa1000

November 6, 2017 by MsWas 16 Comments

How many times have you participated in CBR? Has it changed the way you read? This is my 7th CBR. I started on a whim in CBR3, just to see if I could actually read 52 in a year. And as we all know, the reading is easy, it’s the writing that’s hard! And absolutely, it has changed the way I read. Now I read books that I never would have even considered pre-Cannonball (especially YA and Romance), and I take note of certain passages […]

September Stat Round-up! (finally)

October 24, 2017 by ingres77 5 Comments

I’m so sorry for the massive delay! I’ve been crazy sick for the last month, and am still racked with a pretty bad cough. I am proportionately behind on my reviews (and, to a lesser extent, my reading). Doesn’t look like I’ll be hitting my planned double Cannonball. Sorry again, you guys. I am alive, and I haven’t abandoned the CBR. Per request, I’ve started a Google spreadsheet that can be edited by anyone who follows this link. So far, I’ve only uploaded CBR8, but […]

Quick Questions with a Cannonballer: Caitlin_D

October 6, 2017 by MsWas 17 Comments

How many times have you participated in CBR? Has it changed the way you read? This is my fourth round of CBR. I started with CBR6 at my sister, badkittyuno’s, suggestion. I didn’t take it terribly seriously. I read about the same as I would have every other year only now I would write reviews for what I read. Then last year I made the mistake of requesting the audio version of a book when placing a hold at the library instead of the hard […]

August stat round-up!

September 9, 2017 by ingres77 3 Comments

Per request, I’ve started a Google spreadsheet that can be edited by anyone who follows this link. So far, I’ve only uploaded CBR8, but I’ll go back and add CBR6 and CBR7. I’m used to Excel, and I haven’t really played around with Google spreadsheets, but the document can be sorted and edited without much trouble (I think). If any changes are made, please make some notation in the first column so that I can update the master database. So feel free to participate as […]
