Apoorv ’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

I am so sorry for being MIA through May. Work has not behaved itself and it was not a fun reading month either. Ugh! Hate when real life does its thing.

Hopefully June is slightly better (happy pride month, yaay!) and I can get working on the spreadsheet to help out.

Apologies again!
Thanks Annalisa for keeping the ship afloat. You rock!

It's been a rather mad month workwise unfortunately so far, so I haven't gotten around to keeping things updated, but if Nikk and/or Annalisa don't get to it in the next day or two, I can look through all our posts and update everything.

No book will go waste! Haha! :)

Quick Suggestion!

While we are choosing books for specific tasks, I think it might also be worthwhile to sort of mention if that particular book (as you may find during the reading) works for any other 'relatively difficult' tasks/Bingo/Jackanory elements as well, so that we can move books around if needed.

Yoo-Hoo!!

So apart from tasks, note that there are Books of the Month, and each month for the next three, we will have three books that qualify - one of which will be a book from the Discworld series! Guards! Guards! is one of the BOMs for July.

These are the May BOMs

The Foundling
Dumplin'
Equal Rites

Anytime you read a BOM, you can answer Discussion Questions for an additional 20 points. You can also these Discussion Questions, if chosen to do so for an additional 40 points!

This challenge is all about the points we accumulate.

For tasks, my recommendation would be to focus on the Rincewind and City Watch tasks first because they yield the most points, and then work in descending order of points.

But, from my previous experience with Tower Teams, it goal is just read, read, read, because each book and each read page counts for something or the other.

So, definitely would be helpful to account for all the books you read. We don't want to miss on any of them! Haha! :)
