Omgggg no thank you lol

Yes, she mentioned not finding a rope book and not being able to keep up in general. And she hasn't read nothing else ahead or signed up for anything else. No hard feelings if you can't, just let us know so we can continue without you.

I got so lucky with my rope book because I bought that book last November with the intent of reading it for the following October lol I'm such a book nerd

Oh darn. She mentioned she was struggling with this challenge in general. I wonder if she’ll be back..

Last comment from her was the 29th and it didn't sound promising

No word from Kathryn huh?

That's good! Apparently a lot of people's rope books weren't enjoyable. Looks like we lucked out

Poe would have been better. And I've since found three more books with rope on in my collection I would have vastly pre..."

Lol I don't blame ya! Probably a good book to get on an e-reader :P

I liked my rope book! It was a collection of Edgar Allen Poe short stories, so I knew what I was getting

No problem, Carrie! We are waiting on two more to finish as well. And like the team said, we don't mind waiting :)

Seraphina and Kathryn, how are you girls doing?

Yes, we are not far behind. Team Sandy Claws leads by 110 points, and Team Barrel is in 2nd place by only 10 points!! If I had read like two of my books in a different format (with more pages), we would be ahead of them. Ughhhh

Moving on to week 2, everyone reading Crazy Rich Asians, make sure you participate in discussions! It's too late to write DQs for that book, but we can still get participation points.

Great job Ashleigh for signing up for DQs for The Dark Descent of Elizabeth Frankenstein! That will be huge for us. I plan on reading that and participating.

Now that BOM points are up for grabs, it's anyone's game. It's super helpful to pick up a BOM book :)

Great job so far everyone! Let's keep doing what we're doing!!

Can team Zombie Band write DQs?

Great job Zombie Band!! We did so well!! Every single person on this team contributed big time and helped in placing us so well. Let’s kill It for week 2!!

It looks like all the books on the planner have been read and have been placed on the final spreadsheet. Do we have any extras? We are in 3rd place at the moment. Behind 2nd place by 10 points. Darn!
