Thanks Stacey. Are you able to have a look on your shelf for books you've read but haven't rated yet? There's about 5 books I think

We have the official countdown clock to the end of the challenge - https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown...

5 days and 7 hours left as of now!

Jessi has had a bit going on in her life so she hasn't been able to spend much time on GR's. I had a look at her shelf though and she did finish her book. So don't worry about filling it in!

But thank you both for looking into it (:

Finished audiobook . Pls add to ss.
Thank you"

The edition you've added to your shelf is a kindle version not an audiobook version - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

We need to have the edition that you read on your shelf - if that's an audiobook then pop in an audiobook and we use the page count of the main edition (:

So there's a set, limited number of books we can use in Jackanory???
I though..."

Ah yep. So, there's 26 slots left for jackonary to fill it up. We don't have to fill them all up but we get 5 extra points per book if we do. Woo!

If there's a book that we don't use for Tasks, BOM, Bingo or jackonary, then we just use it for page points instead which is still great. There's no page point difference in jackonary, bingo or tasks.

No:( I only have streaming services. Maybe its on HULU. Not sure.

Ooh I'm not sure what channel. I forgot about it to be honest. It's weird seeing all this 'Tokyo 2020' ads everywhere! I keep expecting 2021 to be on there

But yes, I saw some of the women's artistic gymnastics tonight. It's the main even that I watch. All gymnastics, diving, athletics and maybe weightlifting are my go-to's.

Please add it to your shelf Celia! I'll do my best to fit it in for Jackonary

Added books to here

On another note, the Olympics have started. Has anyone watched the opening ceremony or any of the sports yet?

Thanks everyone! I've popped the books in up to here.



We have 6 books left for tasks and 1 book for Bingo. They've all been claimed which is nice (:

I'm still adding books into Jackonary but it takes me longer to add books there than the other tasks. There's 26 books left for Jackonary and about 26 books that we have read that I haven't popped in yet.

We have about 6 days left of Tower Teams left before we're done! So finish up what you can and make sure all your books are in the spreadsheet! :)

Books added up to here! (:

Finished. BOM and probably for Jackonary. Lots of great characters and topics here. I'll look later to see if I can come up with better."

Amazing! Great job you two! I was hoping I’d be able to read it but it seems like I won’t be able to unfortunately

That sounds like fun! The food and cheese would have tasted delicious as it would have been fresh, I’m assuming

Thanks for the links Lisa! Super helpful (:

Oops - sorry about that. Just added it 😀👍"

Thank you!

Yes Namita we are nearly done with the challenge and the tasks. The challenge ends in 11 days! 31st July! It’s going quickly

Yes, I do agree. It's just so hard to judge. Yes, I think if you are a politician or a health officer at the moment, you will be analysed and critised for years to come.
I feel like at the moment the VIC and NSW lockdowns are in competition with each other. One saying that we don't need to lockdown to defeat the cases (but they did), and the other saying that lockdown is needed to stop the spread of cases (hence lockdown 5.0). Gah. It will be interesting to see how they continue to roll-out the vaccines. Especially if each state does is differently

Yeah the Delta variant is definitely concerning. It doesn't seem as though it's getting that much better in NSW :(

But as well, I haven’t posted any of these on the spreadsheet - but if you can use them for Jacanory feel free.
