PROCLAMATION: Spells

For the letters X, Y and V, you can also use translators names and or audion narrator names, providing the edition you are reading allows for it.

Meaning, you'll have to read the translated version to use translator's name or listening to the audio version to use the narrator's name.

Hey Newts!

As we get ready to start the challenge, just a quick reminder that communication is so important. Please make sure you check in at least once a week, and let me or Laura know asap if something changes in your status that you can't read as much as you thought, if you're going out of town and won't be around to check in, or if real life is getting in the way. We've got a great team and I'm looking forward to reading with you all!!!

I just looked at the clock - only 4 more hours!!

Here's the link to the buddy read for Sorcerer's Stone - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

I have the links posted to the other books in Msg 7

Lots of people from other teams are reading these books, so you can read along and comment as you go. When you do your completion post, you'll indicate you participated (not sure yet if we need a link to one of your posts) and then we'll note that on the spreadsheet

I think there will be a separate thread to post your completed books, and yes, if you all can post when you finish that would be great. I'm waiting to see what the spreadsheet looks like before we decide on a posting format (to make sure we have all the info we need)

Waiting to start my next book......

I finished my book this evening and I'm trying to figure out if I can read a short one just to tide me over?????

Hey team
I've added some info to the reserved posts at the beginning of this thread and I'll keep updating as more info comes out.

Info on Spells came out today - here is the link (it's also on the first page) - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
When you're looking for books to read or doing planning, you can keep these words in mind (lots of vowels!!)

Good morning everyone -- well, it is for me!! It looks like I'll be late to the party every day - I'm on the US west coast so you'll all be up and reading while I'm still snoozing away. I promise to try and get up and moving earlier once the challenge starts!

I'm reading right now (I'm a romance reader) and I'm struggling with it. I have to finish it for another challenge and can't wait until I'm done - the characters are very annoying and there are too many inner thoughts rather than action.

Hi Maya!

I'll volunteer for DQ's - Team Newt Scamander

I'm like Danielle - not much of a planner. I'm often doing more than one challenge, so I try to find books that will fit multiple challenges. I am looking through my TBR for books with page counts just over the next range (eg 161, 351, 501....) and this may be the year I finally read A Game of Thrones!!!

Hi Sallie!
