Heyyyyyyyyyyyy.! I'm here. Are you all ready to start planning?
So we have two options. We can either all pick one that we want to read....and then randomize the unpicked ones....or we can randomize the whole thing. I plan on creating a Google spreadsheet to keep track of our plans and what not. Here is part 1 that we have to choose from.
- Read a book with soil/earth/ digging equipment/ something buried, or a box or trunk on the cover.
- Read a book set in a boarding school
If we decide to do it randomly, we can use all of them together and pick from that number.
Q I have vision problems so the ones that have to do with bookcovers I'd rather not take because it's hard to decipher them sometimes
Anna wrote: "Q I have vision problems so the ones that have to do with bookcovers I'd rather not take because it's hard to decipher them sometimes"Okay, you still have 6 to choose from, thank you for letting us know. I'd really like to get the picking done before May 28, so that when June 1st comes around we already know what we're reading and we can just start.
Is there a certain amount we should pick? I have books in mind for the book with 'B''A''T' in title, bullying, animal on the cover, and character called 'Sarah'.
You may pick whatever you want....but we can only do 4 times for each one.... so I want to try to have everyone do at least do 1 different one. I will have a google doc sheet set up in a few hours.I will let everyone pick what they want to do and then randomize the rest. Kobi, please let me know your book selections for the topics you picked.
- Read a book set in another world- Read a book about bullying.
- Read a book set in a boarding school
- Read a book by an author, or with a character called ‘Sarah’
- Winged things… read a book with the letters ‘B’, ‘A’, and ‘T’ in the title
- Read a book by an author, or with a character who’s name starts with the letter ‘A’ (for Alan)
Anna, these are the ones you may pick from. Please let me know your choice ASAP.
Bullying
Animal on the cover
'B''A''T' in title
Character named 'Sarah'
Right now the way I counted it out is we should all pick two topics that we want to fulfill to get the whole thing done. If one of us can not get to two books, then we can pass it on it to another team member. Kobi, you can do Animal on the cover Flipped and 'B''A''T' in title Between Shades of Gray. I will do - Read a book by an author, or with a character who’s name starts with the letter ‘A’ (for Alan) and - In the Jungle you must wait… read a book with trees on the cover.
The Witness and Chain Gang Elementary
Here is the link to the Google Sheet I have set up so far. Click on the following link to view it. Please let me know if I need to add anything else. Once Anna, Megan, and Dragon BookWorm pick which topics they would like to complete...I will add them to the spread sheet.

Last but not least, we need to start planning buddy reads. I think we may do this once we get to part 2. I'm not going to lie, I'm not very good at buddy reads because I don't have a regular schedule for when I get on GoodReads. I'm hoping that I can somehow work on this and our team can get quite a few buddy reads done.
I will take this one. Read a book by an author, or with a character called ‘Sarah' and Book with shoes or trainers on the cover

Read a book about bullying – hate list Read a book about a boarding school – I'm not quite sure the title of it but I will get right back to you on
The name of the book with the mortal danger but now I'm not sure if it's a boarding school or just a regular school so someone could help me figure that out I'd appreciate it
Dragon bookworm, what are the names of the books that you plan on reading with your challenges?Anna, can you please tag the book that you are talking about so we can read the synopsis and whatnot?
The leftover books that will be given to Scarlet Rose are "- Read a book with soil/earth/ digging equipment/ something buried, or a box or trunk on the cover." and "read a book set in another world."
Under the never sky I can't post the link and I don't know why
What's left for the first part? So I know for what books I should be looking.
Megan, we have - Read a book with soil/earth/ digging equipment/ something buried, or a box or trunk on the cover, or - Read a book set in another world
Here is part 2. First come first served. I am picking mine randomly. I'll tell you what I get.- Read a book featuring an orphan
- A tiny bite can make you itch – read a book with something that flies on the cover
- Watch out for those monkeys! Distract them by reading a book with food on the cover!
- Watch out for that Lion! Find something even scarier! Read a horror story!
- What year is it? Read a book published in 1995.
- I’ve been in Jumanji! Read a book with the word 'game' or 'play' in the title.
- That’s my car! Read a book with a car on the cover.
Also, what time zone is everyone on? I ask because nobody seems to be online when I am.
I got #2 (read a book with house on the cover or in the title), I haven't picked a second one yet.The House of the Scorpion
The Cage should work for "Read a book set in another world", so I'll take that one. For part 2 I'd like "Read a book set in the future, or in the past" and, if I can request a second, "Roll a five or an eight". The books I'd use are The Crimson Cord: Rahab's Story (set in Biblical times) and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
Yes, you can do two. I have you down for both of those. Thanks.!
Part 3---Go ahead and pick two.- We need our fourth player! Quick buddy read a book! (GBR & BR&R also count)
- We lost the game! Read a book in which someone goes missing.
- Help! I’m turning into a monkey! Read a book starting with one of your teammates initials to save them! (Each teammate’s initial can only be used once!)
- There be a monsoon in your lagoon! Read a book with water or rain on the cover (or in the title)
- The floor is quicker than the sand. Read a book with a beach on the cover, or set at the beach.
For part 3 I'm doing read a book with flowers on the cover, read a book that starts with R, and a fantasy story, and I have an A for Anna. 
I'm gonna do hate list for bullying and under the never sky for a book from another world that good?
I will read a romance in a book or someone goes missing for part three I think
I wanted to do a book with a car on the cover on audible tracked by Jenny Martin has a car on the cover but on good reads it doesn't so I'm confused
Yes but how come when I looked it up there was no car?
For part 3I'll do "Help! I’m turning into a monkey!" (Devotion) & "Watch out for the hunter!" (Sky Hunter or That Dog Won't Hunt (Dearing Family))
For part 4
I'll take M (The Midwife's Tale) & I (Irish Meadows).
Anna wrote: "Yes but how come when I looked it up there was no car?"I added that edition to the books, but wanted to be sure that was the one you meant. :)
I will figure out my romance novel in the book with someone who's missing tomorrow I'm too tired right now if that's okay
