I think you can still participate in the discussion and earn points."

Doesn't look like I can get any points for a prior read. Found this in the Q&A section...
◈ Q:Can we get the points if let's say we read a book that has already been done but go to the thread to answer the old questions or discuss our thoughts? An already done BOM or buddy read?
A:We are looking for some kind of discussion and input with others for current BOMs, so you have the book read within a month of the date that the group starts it to get the points


Maybe the next one ;)

That would be cool... I'll have to check it out..
Currently I'm co-captaining in Uno and we finish April 30th, so once that ends I can put 100% of my attention here :D

Darn , read that one already...

Hey Y'all!
My name is Trinia (yes, it's spelled correctly- said Tree-nah) I'm married with 3 teenage boys, a Great Dane and a Sheltie. We live in the great state of Texas, US (it's almost as great as the natives think it is). I'm originally a yankee from Buffalo, NY.

I listen to audiobooks mostly, and read when considered rude to have earplugs in. I typically get through 4-6 books a week. I read EVERYTHING ~ but prefer psychological thrillers, nothing like an audible gasp when reading a book!

I'm addicted to reading, reading challenges, google spreadsheets and of course Goodreads.

It's super to meet all of you =)

Hi All! I'm Trinia, I was recruited by Teddie to undertake this Magical Flying adventure :0)
I'm a complete book addict so I should be able to add books to the current stops.
A quick summary about me. I live in Texas, nearby Dallas , but originally from Buffalo, NY. I'm married with 3 teenage boys (15,15,13) a Great Dane and a Sheltie. Did I say I like to read???

Thanks for letting me join in!

Ahhh! Thanks Sandy ;D In the meantime I've been friending our crew. Had to get my feelers out there =D I promise I'll be patient !

Anyone for K-2SO ???? feeling like a lonely droid over here... :<

Completed Gingerbread level on Message 29!
What a fun challenge!
Happy Holidays everyone and good luck finishing :D

Super cute romance with a splash of comedy. I enjoyed the overall flow of this book, it moved along quickly without losing detail. Macie is completely likable... which fellow reader doesn't love another introvert ;) And yes, great ending!

I'll look over Ms Conoulty's info page again to see if I have any further questions. She did post the website to those soaps if anyone is interested! HA!
Fun buddy read, great pick!

So that would be VERY weird if Matt was wearing them in that scene
LOL!!"

Oh MY!!! Yes, that is quite the image ;D LMAO!!!!

Ha! Thanks Karen, I call them suspenders :)

Can anyone explain what braces are? Macie notes that she is turned on by Matt's pinstriped suite and his braces. In the US braces are on kids teeth to straighten them, or a person with a disability might wear them on their legs. I'm sure they mean something else ;)

I'm starting Chapter 4.
So far this book makes me want to take a dance class! It sounds like so much fun, the action, the clothes and even the hairstyles. Cute so far !

Is there a schedule to go by for this buddy read? :D

Thank you so much Jackie!
I really enjoyed meeting everyone, and as my first challenge it was quite a learning experience. I'm HOOKED! So if anyone hears of a good challenge coming up, let me know about it :D

I'll see if there is anything else that the mods share and I'll be sure to post it here on our thread.

Enjoy the upcoming Holidays friends!
