I've actually never read any books by Neil Gaiman, but I hear a lot of praise about his work - similar to what you said. I won't get to this one this month, but I still plan on reading it at some point, though.

95766 It's not pathetic! And I Followed you, by the way. =)

Thanks. I had a lot of friends help me set it up. I know there's still things I need to add or whatever, but it's still pretty new. All in good time. XD

95766 So, I know a lot of us have blogs and have probably posted them here or there around the group, but here's the official place to advertise them - it'll be easier to see them if they're all in one place.

Please keep in mind that it would be nice to follow the blogs that people post on here, if you are going to advertise here. It's common courtesy.

Also, if doesn't have to be strictly a Book Blog. If you have something else you might think would interest us or might be fun, feel free to post it.

* Please only advertise blogs that are PG-13 or under.

95766 There's no problem if you do the bingo card with words. =)

If you're wondering how to do the picture though, just copy and save the image to your computer. If you have adobe photoshop or Gimp or Photobucket, you can edit it to include the X's when you mark something off.

Hope that helps!

Yup! Sometimes we read books that can qualify for many different things listed. (Such as with House of Hades by Rick Riordan, which can qualify for four spots.) When that happens, you can only choose three Bingo spots for one book.

95766 I'm game!

95766 I know we do a lot of these, but hey - it's a lot of fun! Let's battle it out with another You Pick, I Pick!

The same rules apply, if you want to join post with 20 books you'd like to read. On the first of June, I'll pair everyone up and we'll choose 10 books for our partners to read!

Have fun!

95766 It's time for - you guessed it - Book Bingo!

* This challenge takes place from June 1st to June 30th.

Rules:

1.) A single book cannot count for more than three categories.

Example: You read House of Hades. This could count for several categories, such as Dual POV, Over 500 pages, Spinoff Series, and Part of a Series. BUT you can only use this book for up to three categories, so you'll need to choose wisely.

2.) You cannot use Dual POV, Male POV, and Female POV all with the same book. They'll need to be three separate books.

3.) For the "A Character Dies" category, the character doesn't necessarily have to be the main character, but they need to have played some sort of significant part of the story. It can't be just some nameless casualty.

4.) Books do not have to be strictly YA.

5.) To count, the books have to be read in the month of June.

6.) Bingo does not stop after a person reaches a single bingo. At the end of the month, the person who has filled in the most Bingo rows wins.

To play, just post with your name. Feel free to copy and paste the image to keep track of where you are in the game.

95766 Oh yeah, I read Janet Evanovich for a while back when I was in high school. I think I got to the fifth book before I got distracted. XD

95766 Sounds good. I'll be working this weekend and won't have much time to be on. Would you mind sending out the message?
May 21, 2014 09:52PM

95766 Not really. I don't like watching sports that much. XD

TPBM has a collection of some sort?

95766 Alright, I can do that! I have plenty of time tomorrow to set it up (it's getting late and I'm on my iPad right now. And I'm lazy. XD) so I'll be sure to get it set up. :)
