My greatest wish in life is to finish all the books I own before I die but I think that will be impossible because I keep getting more books LOL!

35559 I just posted my three favourite characters but I think I might be too late for the points-SORRY, I FAILED!

Too many characters to choose from!!!

1. Hagrid-his love of all creatures is heart warming. I also love the gentle giant side of him. He is loyal, honest and the best type of person you could ever ask for to be on your side.

2. Hermione-she's me at her age. I always had head stuck in a book and really didn't care what anyone else thought.

3. Neville-also reminds me of myself at that age because I was also the underdog probably because I always had my head stuck in a book lol

Morgan, the word earthworm is mentioned I think on pg 10 and worm is on pg 11. The only reason I'm guessing on the page number is that I returned the book to the library so I looked on Amazon but they don't have the page number listed. I know it's on the page where chapter 3 starts and the next page. Sorry I can't be more specific but I swear it's there!!!

35559 Looks pretty straightforward which will be good for her. I know we have 2 or 3 books we were going to read together shortly. I’ll get her set up and that should help out a little for buddy reads. Thanks for the example!

35559 Can anyone explain what all is involved in a buddy read? I've not done one before on here. My mom is going to join NBRC and I thought I would do one with her if its not too involved. She's not really tech savvy so I'm hoping it's simple. I'm such a nerd because she and I like to read the same books sometimes so we do our own version of a buddy read but it's more like a race. The winner gets bragging rights. I know, I know how nerdy can you get!

I have Silver Borne to read after I finish my current book so you can pair it with either of the two..."


I second that and heartily agree! Plus, slow and steady wins the race!

35559 I just looked at the tower teams rules from when they first came out and it doesn’t say anything about that but it could be somewhere else. Maybe you should ask in the room of requirements if anyone knows.

Awesome! I was also thinking if need be we could always do some audiobooks for the big books. I'm not a big audiobook person but I would do it for the cause.

Thanks Shannon! I'm glad everyone is liking it. I didn't spend much time on it and so I really wasn't sure what everyone would think of it. I finally got a chance to actually look at the class info closely and I guess I felt inspired hahaha

35559 Bummer! We’ll come up with something I’m sure! I have a ton of books from the library that I can go through and see if I can come up with anything. I think we’re doing good though. We’ve completed a lot already especially for only being 10 days into this.

35559 The only question I have about your Transfiguration idea is do the titles have to go together?
