35559 I'm starting with
The Colour of Magic (Discworld, #1) by Terry Pratchett I'm reading a good few of the Racewind novels hopefully (I have the first 4).
Crave (Crave, #1) by Tracy Wolff - on audio from my library
Shadow of Night (All Souls Trilogy, #2) by Deborah Harkness I've also been dying to start this one soon.
Equal Rites (Discworld, #3; Witches, #1) by Terry Pratchett - I'm also joining May BOTM

I guess we just add all the tasks it fits? Like for example, the colour of magic fits in task 2, 4, 22, 41, 46 and so on? And then the captains add to the spreadsheet whichever one they want to use?

I know, right? I had heard many good things about it going in, but I was still a little apprehensive. But I ended up loving it a lot.

35559 I’m a big mood reader so I was just planning to mostly read like normal, and then see what points the book can get.

35559 Hello everyone! My name is Tone, and I'm from Norway. I am currently writing my master thesis in Business (Finance) and only have like 6 weeks until I'm graduated! This is my first ever TT, and I'm still a little confused, but I hope I'll get the hang of it eventually. I've never read any Discworld either, but I'm joining Mort, and I've also acquired a few other Discworld books :)

I mostly read in English and my favorites are Fantasy, YA, historical fiction and any book with LGBTQ+ content is always welcome!

I think my shelf is already linked above, but here it is again :)

35559 Hello there. My name is Tone and I'm new to goodreads. I'm currently browsing around joining clubs and feeling the urge to read 20 books at the same time. This place is so inspirational, and I can't believe I haven't joined earlier.

My birthday is May 30th 1996, which makes me 23 this year. I'm currently in university which means I don't get as much time to read books as I would like to. I'm in my 4th year (out of 5) and I miss reading for pleasure as much as I used to.

Picking a favorite book was harder than I thought it would be. The Harry Potter books have always been favorites. I also remember that Broken Paradise by Cecilia Samartin made a huge impact when I read it in middle school (seriously go read it, it's amazing).

When it comes to books genre I tend to lean against YA, fantasy, romance and classics. But I'll read anything.

Favorite authors include JK Rowling and I have read almost all of the Rick Riordan books (Percy Jackson). He writes in a way that makes me crack up every other page. I love the Percy Jackson books as well as the other series and I have unintentionally learned so much about several mythologies through his books.

My favorite colors are purple-ish blue (lavender) and yellow. I'm also into brown and other autumnal colors these days.

I don't really have a favorite food. I enjoy indian and italian. Simple food feeds my belly.

Living in a home for university students I unfortunately don't have any pets. I didn't have any growing up either. But when I'm older I think I would first like to get a cat, and then later a dog. That's my goal at least.

If I could live anywhere in the world it would be? I'm not sure about this. I think maybe London or New York. I'm in love with everything English, or even from the British Isles, it doesn't matter. (The Outlander series made me fall in love with Scotland as well). I also lived in Ireland for a year and I absolutely loved it so Dublin is also high on the list.

Finish the line: I know I'm a book addict because.... when I read escape to a different world. As i child I always had a big imagination. I would day dream a lot and my mind would take me anywhere. I also read alot. My bedroom was filled with books from an early age and my bedroom walls are still covered with bookshelves. I'm really proud to be a bookwork. Reading has always been a big part of me, and I'm pretty sure it always will.

Since the last few years have been "bad" reading years (except for the summers) I'm planning on making a New Year's resolution to read at least 10 books. I think I might be able to do 15 if I really put my mind to it (and cancel my Netflix subscription, haha). I think 10 is a good goal, and if I do 15 it will be a bonus.
