35559 I am adding one more tonight. If I pick two shorties I might be able to knock out 2 letters. Hold on while I finish updating. Got home a little early tonight so it's reading time.

Summer hasn’t started in Oregon either. We had to make a fire in our woo..."


Just stopping by to get some book recs for my team and saw this - I'm outside Crater Lake and it's still frosting every night here. We actually had snow in the park last week. It gets down to 28 degrees in my hoop house and my poor tomatoes are not doing well. But it 80 degrees and sunny right now. Come on, Oregon. Give me enough summer to get my garden to grow!

35559 We had a great first round! My ask is if you claim a spot and realize you won't be able to finish, please delete it from the planning sheet so someone else can get it completed before the deadline.

I know we can spell YODELLING at least 8 times, but I say let's try for 10! Go find those vowels so we can knock this out.

Communication is key! Life definitely gets in the way of our reading time, so let us know if you placed books and can't get to them before the deadline.

35559 You guys are awesome! We have some amazing readers on this team.

Four spell-outs done, almost done with the 5th. Go team go! We can finish a 6th spell out if we all complete our books.

35559 Hi everyone! So we have 1 day 17 hours roughly before our spreadsheet gets LOCKED for editing. That means we will need a little time to get your final books moved from the planning sheet to the official sheet. Please try to have all books completed and posted on the planning sheet or in this thread no later than 1 hour before the deadline.

End of round countdown is here:
https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown...
Be sure you take the time zone difference into account when getting your final books posted! I'm on the west coast of the US, so it is an 8 hour difference for me (2pm Friday).


As you are finishing up those final books, start planning for word #2:
Word: Yodelling

Tags: Switzerland, Mountain, Freedom, Breathing, Winter

35559 My work week has been CRAZY so I haven't had the energy to read once I fall into bed, but I am listening to Only Time Will Tell which I've had on my TBR forever. I should finish this weekend.

35559 I have 3 O books that I think I can get through this week. Added to the sheet.

35559 I was thinking the same thing, Alysa. We can go a little over just in case life gets in the way and someone can't finish a book by the end of the round.

35559 I updated our recommendations links at the beginning of our thread and sent it to all of the other teams. Some great variety there! Something for everyone.

How is the reading going? I have one I should be finishing tonight.
