So can I say that I'm also famous like Vicki? LOL!
Vicki wrote: "Angel / YA rules!/ wrote: "Vicki wrote: "Angel / YA rules!/ wrote: "Vicki wrote: "Angel / YA rules!/ wrote: "Heather wrote: "I had no idea that when I introduced my mom to Goodreads she would becom..."Good luck with the competition!
Novel is very hard to beat! LOL!
So the current teams are the ff:
Vicki-Heather
Novel-Angel
Steven-Agatha
Ok! I'm going give it a try :) Jalyn and I are going to pair up. Yay!
Of the 800+ books I own none of them have food on the cover, and I don't think any are cook type characters. So I think I will skip this challenge and give you guys a break...unless someone is still needing a partner:)

LOL But we'll see. Heather and I are up for the challenge and, as our mods, you ARE the role models. So IF you beat us, and that's a big if, I will be more than happy to applaud both of you. BUT Heather and I WANT those extra books!!! LOL
Right, HEATHER???
Our MAIN challenge is the same as what Sara mentioned. I have a couple books that fit the category, and there is NO way I can buy 30-40 books. We could lose by default, but what kind of victory is that? LOL

I don't think I can read 30-40 books in 2 weeks!
Oh that's right. It's only 2 weeks! What's our start date?
Vicki wrote: "Oh that's right. It's only 2 weeks! What's our start date?"The challenge period is from November 1 - 15.
Okay, we're getting ready. I think I'll hit B&N today and see if they have books I can read for free. That's one nice thing about the NOOK!Does anyone have suggestions of good books for this challenge?

Greta wrote: "^ Jona, I'm waiting to hear back from Jalyn to confirm our team name. I will let you know. I think I'm going to read 'cause I didn't read it with everyone ..."Will wait for your group name! ;)
I think Novel and Angel don't have their group name yet..

Two of my kids had Halloween parties at school today and I'm the homeroom mom for my oldest so I actually threw their party. Crazy busy day! Now I'm trying to get ready for my youngest child's party tomorrow. This last week has been nuts! Lol ;) I'll let Greta announce our name since she was the one who came up with it's awesomeness. Lol :D
Greta I sent you a message :)
Jalyn and I are team..... Book Nuts :)Some books that I've already read but which would fit with the challenge are Bet Me by Jennifer Crusie ( for some reason I can't add the link,)
All three are pretty good. In Garden Spells the main character is a caterer. Also if anyone is interested in reading a really poignant but good memoir, I suggest
