Verónica’s comments from the The Perks Of Being A Book Addict group.

Yes, we can guess once each song, and after Pixie responds we can take another shot on each. So the 4 we got incorrect, 3 I already sent another guess. I only left the first one because I wasn't sure about the song. I add comments on each on the spreadsheet. I'll add the extra clues pixie sent too.

Well, Brittany just suggested another one for Task(1-3) and it also fits perfectly. The other ones I already sent them. Waiting for reply. I just left that first one pending since I wasn't sure. Do we vote?

Elena wrote: "I added another title for Task 1-3, what do you think about it?"

Yep. I think we're going for that one.

OK. I sent an email to all of you with the answer from Pixie about our song guesses.

Thanks to Kaylee (and her dad maybe, LOL) I think we got the Task (1-3) and the song for the last one. And I just figured out the Task(28-30). Check the file if you want to comment.

Two per active person and we can make it, no problem. Some teammates are doing great numbers so balancing out in the end we may not feel so constrained. Just let's not rest on our laurels :P.

Hey everyone.

I know I've been very nonchalant about our status, but as of now with a week left to close March, we need to have finished at least 20 books between all of us. I think I can get up to maybe 4 more. There's 12 in the team, but 9 are really active. So I encourage you to go for shorter reads (but at least 100 pages, 3hrs long for audio). Mini is an issue but it's definitely more important to finish all our hands. If we can fit a book in the mini that's great.

Today I'll send our song guesses to Pixie. Fingers crossed for those extra points.

Felicity wrote: "Congrats Kaylee!

Veronica- can we hold off on the songs until tomorrow? I am going to try one more pass today. We need to have a song for the first song clue."

Sure, I'll send it tomorrow. Teammates that have not voted please check it out.

Ok, we keep Heir of Fire for the 4Green and I finished the 8Blue. I started a 4Red to fill our last WD4 cards, and that's it for the color cards, yay!

5(I)'s and mini it's our main focus now. Good job everyone.

MPG, Main Page Genre. It's the first genre listed on the book page, in the website version.

Felicity wrote: "When do you plan to send the songs in for our first review?"

Maybe monday or tuesday, depends on the voting.

Felicity wrote: "I am reading which has a 5. I am struggling this time around with the mini. Harder to find books for more specific requirements."

Yeah, totally. It's too specific. That's probably why they added the bonus points of the songs. We can get up to 45 for artists and 30 for songs, in total. And they've been very picky with the tasks, not allowing too much diversion from the literal.

Hello.

Everything looks fine. The remaining cards are mainly easy ones. Kaylee used Pixie Cards, granted to us because of a missing member that we could not get a replacement for. She used them to fill the most problematic ones, so that was great.

The color card that is missing and could be an issue is a 4Green. Also the 5's. I'm about to finish a book for 8Blue, and for a WD4 (a duplicated color card) I have one for 4Red, but if someone has something else it's fine. The ones that can be duplicated are

4Red
6Red
4Green
7Green
0Blue
4Blue
7Blue
8Blue

Since most of the remaining cards are easier to find, we probably should focus a little bit more on the mini. Please check if you have something on your TBR list for it.

About the extra points for guessing the song/band. I think we should start to vote on the ones we want to submit to Pixie for review. We have one chance to correct them. Please check the Songs tab. I'll add a space on the right of each answer for you to vote with your initials. If you have another guess add it to the list and vote it.

Have a fun weekend!

Oooor...I have a 8 Blue too, and it's on the longer side so I'll switch to that. I have two reds (2 & 4) to fill the others WD4. I'm probably finishing one of them tomorrow.

Kaylee wrote: "yeah we can move it if you are reading it specifically for that or use it for the WD4. sorry I was just trying to get some of the harder cards knocked out lol"

yeah no problem, I'm just starting it, and also looking around my library to see if I move things around too, of my choices. I think either way will work. I'll keep going.

Well, or maybe it can be still be used for a Wild draw 4.

I started Verity today for the 7 green, does the one you place there can be used for other? if not I'm still on time to change it for something else useful.

@Alejandra The book Throne of glass can be use for one of the mini tasks. I updated the file.

Jodi wrote: "I do have books to enter... hopefully tomorrow!"

That's great! We definitely need them, we're moving at a slower pace than last month.

@Alejandra It doesn't qualify :(. I run it through tineye and it's more grey, and I ask in a group and one of the Mods says it doesn't.

For the ones that have read Verity, do this qualify for the "Read a book where the MC falls in love with their boss(es)" prompt of the mini?
