If you have any books that are not going to be accounted for any goals, try and finish them after the cut-off.

Unused books from a previous round cant be used for the next one. I just dont want any of our read books going unused for goals.

Goal Update !!


Gannicus

- Read a book with the phrase "Whole nine yards" in a book [Tentatively Vicky]
- Read a book with 1-10 chapters
- Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter P

Crixus

- Read a book that contains the word parsley [Sara]
- Read a book that is in the Amazon 2008 bestsellers (http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/...) [Kate]
- Read a book where a character is an angel

I am reading Anna and the French Kiss, and there she goes to the movies. Should be done either today or tomorrow.

P.S. This is a really cute book.

Here is the latest update of our goals.


Gannicus
- Read a book with the phrase "Whole nine yards" in a book [Tentatively Vicky]
- Read a book whose author (first or last) starts with I
- Read a book which has the main location (setting) as South America

Crixus
- Read a book with the word hot, love or steam (plurals are acceptable) in the title
- Read a book that contains the word parsley
- Read a book that is book 3 in a series

LOL ! Good luck concentrating on work after that !
Awesome, Sara ! :D

The Sky is Everywhere, that I finished the other day, has poems/sonnets at the beginning and the end of literally every chapter.

You can turn poems into songs !
If not, then kill me ! :P

I love the palindrome goal.. we had an interesting goal this afternoon (for which we already had a book), Read a book where the amazon ship weight for the hardcover is under a pound.

Now, these are really cool goals instead of those publication date ones :P

New Goal :
Read a book with a prime number of pages

This sucks ! We have so many un-used books and none are prime numbers. Guess we have to start doing the Math now onwards :P

New Goal, after knocking two more out :
Read a book where a character is a cowboy/cowgirl .

Any takers ? ;)

New Goal :
Read a book first published on the 30th of a month

Kill me now !

Well done, Angel. Makes it so easy for us to update. :)
Thank you so much !

As we move into Week # 4,
quick update from the Master Spreadsheet POV,

We started this Round as Number # 2, unfortunately we have dropped down to the second last position (mostly coz of those publication date goals.. oh, I am beginning to hate those).. but I am pretty sure we can catch up and race ahead.

But what really matters is that we all are enjoying ourselves. So hopefully you all are having fun.. coz I certainly am !
.. and that is coz you all are an awesome bunch ! :D

Okay, GoodReads probably has the wrong info.
I checked some other websites and they do say that Saint Odd was published on the 13th of January this year.

So I guess we are okay.

If you open the book page, the line where it is says published on blah blah, talking about the edition you are reading, the first published date is in the parenthesis next to it.

Kate, it says that the book was first published on the 8th of January :(

OMG, Sara. This is so awesome.
I so did not even think of that, even after reading the book.
Thank you for catching it. Great that we could knock a goal off.

.. and yes, Sonia. It was one of the most weirdest Agatha Christie's I have read.. and I absolutely love her.

New Goal

Read a book where a character is a vampire

New Goal

Read a book that starts with the letter H

I so want to read Ball & Chain, but I am still at Book 4 in the series and I want to relish them as long as I can. ^_^

Quick Question, team !

Do you think this is 'pink' enough for a pink cover goal ?

This is the only book amongst the ones that we have read and are unclaimed for a goal.

Thoughts ? :)
