Christina | 4293 comments Yay good stuff anna

I'm sick of sneak attacks on the last day of challenges. Getting ambushed left right and centre in May's challenge! I hope this doesn't happen in June but it's inevitable

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments What team are you on Christina?

message 204: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Let's do this, let's have fun! I'm going to put this out there, it is crazy what goes on, people this is a reading challenge!!! BTW that was not directed on anybody on this team ;-) I can't even Mark a book as completed, even if I'm not in a challenge, yikes!
YAY !! JUNE!
Remember it's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game! So let's have fun!


message 205: by Anna (new)

Anna (abunchofbanana) We're ten minutes from the EST start, and I just finished the library book that I wanted to get done before I started the books I'm reading for this challenge. Let's start strong and have fun!!


message 206: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) I'm still a couple hours away from June :-) I haven't read much of anything today, at all. I needed a little break :-)


message 207: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments Sorry I'm a bit bitter about the last day spamming so I can't help but complain. Let's have fun!!


message 208: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments No, it's insane! I don't understand hoarding 5+ reviews until the end.

I agree that in the end it's about HOW you play the game.


message 209: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments I agree.
I could hoard all my books to the last day and post them but I don't because I know it's not fair.

Reading my first book for June now! :D


message 210: by Anna (new)

Anna (abunchofbanana) I'm about a third of the way through my first book, and I brought it to work with me, so I can read it on my break!


message 211: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) I think you are our secret weapon :-) statistically we actually should win, I think we have three of the top 10 readers on this team from last challenge :-) I just squeaked in at number 10, I think if I counted right ;-)


message 212: by Markus (new)

Markus Hey guys! I am not taking part this month, which is why I can now support you all. Really hope you win it this time, maybe I needed to leave for Berit and Jackie to win!


message 213: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Thanks Marcus! LOL, I don't think it was you ;-)


message 214: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments I think it was me☺️


message 215: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) LOL it was nobody! Just a bunch of crazily crazy readers on other teams ;-)


message 216: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments Heya markus
You can join us ;)

We have a public holiday for the queens birthday next Monday!


message 217: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) You have a queen??? I didn't know that ;-)


message 218: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments We're part of the Commonwealth. We celebrate Queen Elizabeth's bday ;)


message 219: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Got it! Because if there is a queen of Australia we never hear about it :-)


message 220: by Anna (new)

Anna (abunchofbanana) The goal is to finish my first book and start a second tomorrow since I have the day off!


message 221: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments Oh wow! Some teams have already done a few!


message 222: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments @Berit
Noticed you were reading Scarlet and it can fit into - We lost the game! Read a book in which someone goes missing. because Scarlet's grandmother is missing. Also it's awesome for bonus points! :

Christina: Stolen (A letter to my captor)
Nikinnia: The Good Girl
Anna: Paper Towns by John Green
Berit: Scarlet by Marissa Meyer


message 224: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Perfect! I was thinking I would use it towards 800 pages, but that is even better, didn't even think about that ;-)
Should finish it up this morning, my oldest son is graduating high school tonight, and I'm not planning on bringing a book ;-)


message 225: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments Congrats to your son!!


message 226: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Thanks! Now that I think of it, maybe I should bring a book, he is in a class of 780, so it's going to be long, with a lot of names ;-)


message 227: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments Wow that's a massive class! It must be a long ceremony


message 228: by Kina (new)

Kina (gagirl83) | 804 comments Congrats to you son Berit!


message 229: by Kina (new)

Kina (gagirl83) | 804 comments @Christina I'm about to post another. :-)


message 230: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments Nikinnia you're on fire!! :D


message 231: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Now I am super irritated, I can't believe people would cut and paste reviews, yikes!

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90985 comments Mod
What's worst is that it was one of Abbie's reviews. Who is so lazy that they cut and paste the review of the person checking the reviews?


message 233: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments LOL WTF


message 234: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) OMG! LOL! Lazy and stupid!


message 235: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90985 comments Mod
I feel like messaging the people who's reviews were copied and telling them.


message 236: by Kina (new)

Kina (gagirl83) | 804 comments Thanks Christina.

@Sarah Is it too late to join the br for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix from May 10th?


message 237: by Kina (new)

Kina (gagirl83) | 804 comments Oh wow! So she did it to more than one person?!


message 238: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Sarah, I think you should! I seriously hope this person is young and will learn their lesson.

message 240: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments I'm so confused, what happened?


message 241: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90985 comments Mod
Somebody has been copying other people's reviews - literally cutting and pasting them, and submitting them as their own.


message 242: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments What! That is completely wrong! How did you catch them? I feel very sorry for the people whose reviews were copied as they probably slaved over them. Is my review is ever copied, would you please let me know?


message 243: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90985 comments Mod
Sure; Abbie caught the person in question because they copied Abbie's review, and submitted it for Abbie to check.


message 244: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments It is sad to think you might have to put each review into some sort of checker. I have no idea how one would do that but it does take away from the integrity and honesty of the challenge.


message 245: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Jackie, did you already have your graduation? If so congrats!! You should of made a big deal of it ;-)


message 246: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments No, it is on June 16.


message 247: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Cool! I will keep that date in mind :-) bet you are busy.


message 248: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments Kind of. I am finishing finals but I got sick right in the middle so it really stinks.


message 249: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Good luck!


message 250: by Kina (new)

Kina (gagirl83) | 804 comments Thanks Sarah. I thought there was one for this month, but for some reason my app isn't showing all the buddy reads.
