139735 Oh no! ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ It worked for the others, so I don't think it's something I have to change... Maybe if you give me your email I could try to share it with you that way. ๐Ÿค” Add me as a friend if you don't want to put it out here for everyone to see ๐Ÿ™ƒ

139735 Ah I see...

I like all genres and am very flexible with my reading, so I can read whatever book for the Team reading bonus, feel free to come up with suggestions!

Of course, if you don't usually go for the bonus and you don't think it will be possible, we can drop it. I just thought it would be fun to find a book to read together :)

139735 Would the word persuaded work instead of persuasive? In general, is it ok to change the word to a different part of speech or to conjugate/inflect it?

Ashley has already given us the first spin. ๐Ÿ˜Š I'ts the post she posted on March 29th in this thread. You can use any book you started after March 23rd, but cannot finish the book until tomorrow. ๐Ÿ˜‰ We are using a SS to track our reading, here is the link:

139735 Hi team!โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’ž

Little introduction: I am French but live in Norway. English is my third language, so excuse me if I make any writing mistakes.๐Ÿ˜ŠI love most genres, as long as the book is well-written. My BPM is usually at 2-3, but increases during the summer holidays. ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐Ÿฆ

Do you want to try and get the team reading bonus for April? โœจIf so, what book would you want to read? My suggestion is to read one of the Hunger Games sequels (Sunrise on the Reaping or The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes๐Ÿฅ€), but lately I have been in the mood for any type of book, so feel free to come up with other suggestions! ๐Ÿซ 
139735 Team 2 has agreed on a name: The Misfit Readers

139735 The Misfit Readers it is then ๐Ÿฅฐ I will let Ashley know

139735 Ok, I will let you know when I am ready to start the book. I'll have to borrow it from the library first, or buy it if it isn't available. I got several gift cards for bookstores this Christmas, and I have to start using them๐Ÿ˜‰
139735 Hi! I think I'll join you guys for this Buddy Read ๐Ÿฅฐ I'll try to get it from the library on tuesday

139735 Hi Jenny! I think I will join you โ™ฅ๏ธ I read the Hunger Games trilogy three years ago and loved it, so now I want to return to this world. I'll try to read both this book and The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes this month ๐Ÿ˜„ Do you think I can read them at the same time or does this one contain spoilers for The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes?

139735 Hi all! Super happy to be joining you๐Ÿ˜„ I just read through the rules and think I understand everything ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€

139735 For our name, Bernadette prefers Balloons, Bliss & Books while Princesspint prefers The Misfit Readers. I love both. Which one do you like most, Sharon?

I also updated the SS to fit our team ๐Ÿ™ƒ
