I added it to spells under R (the series name is Regent's Park Pack), I couldn't find anywhere else for it to go unless we use it as a transfigurat..."

The book was in one of the spells but I'm going to move it to transfiguration. We shall transform that handsome man into a donkey.

Thanks Brooklyn! Halli updated the book to the official spreadsheet.

What do you think of the book?

Of course Suzanne! Quidditch is time consuming! =P

How are you finding it so far? Do you think one could breeze through the book in one sitting?

Talia wrote: "Tina, the book I need to take off a spell is Unexpected Gifts. I'll put Quidditch in the Used column on the planning spreadsheet for this and all the other books I'm reading for Qui..."

All good Talia! I put another book in there

Thank you for all the well wishes!! xx
I think I went well on both exams. I only wasn't sure about one question on each exam.

But, all done now!

Has anyone else started? I'm going to start tomorrow

Classic monstrosity... here we come!

Not yet!
I have a feeling when I pick it up, I won’t put it down.
I have a few books to finish first. I think I’ll start tomorrow

Hi all,

Just to let you know that as I have an exam on Monday and one on Tuesday (plus work), I need time to study and prepare and do the exams. So, I won't be on much (or at all) for the next two days as I need to focus!

Wednesday - I'll be back and adjusting the spreadsheet as necessary.

If there's anything that you need an answer to right away, send me a message as I get emailed them and I check emails at least twice a day.

Happy reading!

For classes, I have a few books that can work for different things...I found that I had can definitely be used for yellow in Potions!

If Gone with the Wind is extended through to July- I’m in!

Wicked!

The second one is here and it starts on July 6th. I hope that's okay with everyone. We can get it started later if need be.

Nicole wrote: "Cool thanks Tina! For the BR’s do we need to contribute to the discussion to earn points?"

Yes, definitely for B.R. See this answer to Brooklyn's question

Yes, for B.O.M.'s as well. Try and participate in at least two DQ days. You can just say that you read ahead. Or is there's a question asking you what you think of this? Or what do you think will happen? You can say what you thought at the time or that you've read ahead so you can't say.

Ooooohhhhhhh I see what you mean. I never noticed! Eek! I've done it in past B.R. - oops D:

Thanks Kaley!

Oh... I'm on my laptop and it's in a spoiler for me. Can you see what I've written even though it's in a spoiler tag? Is that because you're on the app on your phone? Bit confused

I'm not very good at deciding what's a spoiler or not. I'll edit!

Thanks mods!
