Interesting theory about Volkheimer!!!! I definitely noticed a deep affection there but being in love hadn't occurred to me. I can see your theory!

WOW! Kimberly you have lived EVERYWHERE. And Berit, I grew up in Orange County!

That's awesome, when did you leave?! I live in West Harlem...148th and Amsterdam. I love it! I've lived all over the city but this is by far my favorite...although I lived in Chelsea for a while (25th and 8th) and that was preeeeeetty sweet hahaha So you're an NYU grad!!!! I went to John Jay College of Criminal Justice. Love me my CUNY system ;)

I can't stop laughing at that picture Princess. It is...magical. Also, my friend just told me to read that book because she thought it was fantastic so please let me know your opinion when you're done. FINALLY, um Yay for giving us our first two official letters!!!!

I am back. I am back for good. This has been an extremely stressful day/evening hahaha ok. so. HOW'S IT GOING GUYS?!

Savannah - oh my gosh I'm so glad the spreadsheet dilemma has been solved. I already know I DO NOT have plans next Saturday night...Plus side, I got duck for dinner and he payed, PLUS a ride home...in Manhattan, this is winning.

Tonya - SO STOKED FOR YOUR A!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE DOMINATING! FANTASTIC!!! I love school...I miss it so much I'm tempted to go to grad school just so I'll have homework again........

Now time to go tinker with my new spreadsheets :)

OMG SAVANNAH IM SO SORRY YOU HAD A PROBLEM! I WAS TOTALLY TRAPPED TRYING TO MESSAGE YOU BEHIND A LOCKED BATHROOM DOOR BUT I GOT NO SERVICE!!!

MY FRIENDS TRICKED ME INTO A BLIND DOUBLE DATE BY CLAIMING THEIR THREE OTHER FRIENDS BAILED.

IM TYPING ALL CAPS BECAUSE THIS IS HOW INTENSE THIS EVENING HAS BEEN.

That is totally fine! Kimberly thank you SO MUCH for your contributions to week 1 as well as to the team as a whole. Your spreadsheet is amazing.

SARAH --

Please be sure to mark both those books as READ with a READ DATE 3/28/15 on your wheel-a-thon shelf.

SARAH --

Please remember to add Safe Harbor to
Your wheel-a-Thon shelf!

YAAAAAS!!! I love it Sarah!!!! Look at the new girl jumping right in!!! Totally into it!!!

We ARE until 9 pm EST!!!

YAAAAAAAAS!!!

Keep reading for Sonic Silver. Kimberly finished an O book and I finished an I book so we have FINISHED OUR SECOND SPELL-IT-OUT!!! Therefore, once again all letters are up for grabs until 8:59 pm EST!!!

Not gonna lie I'm a little bitter about it ;) pink is my favorite color.

I CAN FINISH THE I ON THE BUS RIDE HOME FROM WORK!!! YAAAAAAAS!!!!!!

I hope it's an O or an I otherwise it won't count! If it's neither of those, save it and finish it late tonight so it counts for week 2.

STATUS UPDATE

If somebody finishes an O and an I by the end of the day we will have completed our SECOND ROUND!!!

First of all, Tonya and Kimberly WAY TO GO!!!!! 3 books while I was sleeping - NICELY DONE!

Second of all, we really can't compare ourselves to other teams. Berit is right. They were a team longer, they were able to plan, some people were legit reading like 10 books a day hahaha I agree, I have no idea how that's possible, but I work two jobs...reading time is dedicated to my commute on the bus/subway and pre-bed wind-down.

Perhaps it went so far into the future to make you question whether or not she kept the diamond ;)

Berit truly don't worry about page numbers being over 500 if you're also in another challenge. If you're able to finish three books in the amount of time it would take you to finish one 500 pager, that still counts as more anyway!

And for everyone:

Even if a character only speaks one line, that counts as a character letter. So throw letters at us, we'll make them work somehow!
