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

Ok Team, here are the 3 teams for part 1:
Neptune
Pluto
Musca

We have to read 2 books per team. If you choose to read for part 1 please claim the book here :) also make sure it fits at least 1 card so we can use it for the normal spreadsheet as well :)

you can also start to read for part 2. if any of the rules aren't clear, just ask :)

No we can do both parts at the same time. BUT we are not allowed to use the 3 teams we choose for part 1. We're just discussing which teams are best for part 1 and will post it today. So we can start with the mini challenge

I have a book at home that Team Grus recommended. And there is one book both in Team Haumea and Team Jupiter I want to read.

Hey Team! please read through the rules of the mini challenge, it'll start tomorrow :)

have a look through the thread for the teams whose book recommendations stand out to you. we'll decide on the 3 teams by tomorrow :)

every team is working a bit differently :) it's basically the same putting the authors name or just write author :)

Jenny - I'm saving all my colored card books for the next month in case we can use them there, but that's just me.

I took a few days off from reading, sorry team. Work was su..."

Don't worry about that :) personal life can always get in the way of reading. We want you to enjoy the challenge, not feeling pressured :)

@Jenny there is one Wild Card 4 left, but that's our last coloured card :)

and I think Kirsten is reading a book for it atm?

last night I finished The Power and I can only recommend it to you all! I enjoyed it so much

good news: The cover is counted as red by the mods :)

The Chalk Man by C.J. Tudor

Started Feb. 4, completed Feb. 7.

Tineye does say it's more orange than red. And to me it also just seems more orange

don't stress yourself! everyone is reading in their own pase, and it should be enjoyable to you. we still got a bit to go until februart ends :)

concerning cards: 5s and 7s are the ones I'm concerned about atm. but it might have changed once you finished your books :) just keep an eye on our spreadsheet and you'll see what we need

@Jenny we don't go hand by hand, but you can see in our cards overview (just on the right in our february sheet) which cards we still need. We only have one card 5 covered so far, so those would be good.

Jenny wrote: "Daniela, My copy is . Definitely enough red on this cover."

Yes that's the one with 70% red :) it'll be fine. I'm not far with reading, but so far it doesn't fit card 1 or 3

Christina wrote: "Don't forget that we always have to use the edition we're reading!"

THIS! Forgot to mention it :)

@jenny do you have The Power (this one counts) or this The Power (this one doesn't as it's only 47% red -.-)

Jenny wrote: "Daniela,
I just noticed on my feed that you are reading The Power. That is on my list as well, so I will be curious to know what you think. But, the reason I bring this up, is that my copy has a br..."

Oh yeah I just chose any without really looking. So the one with the Hand + red background is 70% red BUT I don't know if it'll fit a card 1 or 3, will have to read it first :)

Awesome! We can use yours for that slot :)

I started a book that fits 4 Blue, but we need to fill the WD4 anyway :) have a lookout if yours might fit a card 7 blue as we till need one of those as well. Mine doesn't so far :(

Thanks for checking! I was ment to write author but clearly got distracted by a 2 card haha
