message 151: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth k we could do round two of couples and supporting so do we let the ones that lost go on round two or start with all new ones


message 152: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Start with new ones. You can also ask for suggestions in the setup area. That way, we get a variety in the characters that end up being on the list.


message 153: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth ok no prob


message 154: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I think what we need to do today and tomorrow is just go through the discussions and make a post or two on them to get more people posting on them.


message 155: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth I'm here so I can help with that


message 156: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Okay. Thanks.


message 157: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth no prob I tried it on the challenge the other day but it didn't work


message 158: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Does anybody have any ideas for new discussions?


message 159: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth sorry I had to run to town I'm back now


message 160: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth we could start a discussion about which Book/movie turned out the best


message 161: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) There's already a thread that's really similar to that.


message 162: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth ok let me think a min on it


message 163: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) It's almost May. That means new books, new theme, new chapter by chapter read. :)

What all do we want to do in this next month?

Well there is a lot of buddy reads that are up which is great! So this plenty of things members can discuss along with the monthly reads. Just brainstorming a few ideas for discussions and games but other than that everything is good!
Also, you guys are absolutely great and have made this a amazing group. Thanks so much! We are almost up to 400 members which is far more than I anticipated when starting the group.

Thanks again!
:D


message 165: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Can one of you start the discussions and the trivia for the BOTMs tomorrow? I won't have a lot of time to get on here.

Maybe we can split them up between the four of us? So, one of you would get Divergent, another would get Requiem, and another would get Hex Hall. I will take care of our challenge winner's pick.


message 166: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Also, can two of you create a favorite quote poll for Hush, Hush and Pandemonium. I would like to start those soon, and close them on the 15th. You can request quotes from members, or just gather your own.

I'll do the quote poll for City of Bones.


message 167: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Ok tomorrow I can get started on all of that I should have all day now that I'm not babysitting now


message 168: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Sorry for not helping a lot lately been so busy with warm weather comes lots of work and next week I won't be around much I'm going on the road with my husband so I will only be able to get on when we stop and have wi-fi I will miss everyone till I get back


message 169: by Leigh (new)

Leigh (leighsalv) Eek sorry for not being on here for a couple of days. Had so many projects and I'm currently studying for the SAT. Would you guys like me to move some threads that are finished to the archive?


message 170: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I totally understand about the studying. I have two AP tests to take in less than two weeks.

I would would move April's BOTM discussions and trivia to the archive tomorrow, and keep the other discussions in place. I moved a few other threads to the archives today.

I understand too. Report cards are tomorrow and I'm freaking out. So much pressure. :s


message 172: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Do you mean final report cards? Like the final grades?


message 173: by Jessica , Proud Bookaholic (new)

Jessica  (stuckinotherworlds) | 858 comments Mod
No I got another 6weeks before I get the final marks. Today I get term 3 grades. :(


message 174: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Okay. That makes sense now. We're pretty close in the time for the rest of school. Our midterm progress report grades came out last week, and I have. After today (because there's no school on thursday and friday), I will have five weeks left of school.

That's great! And the its summer break!!! I have to take a math exam at the end of the year. Oh and I put up the three BOTM's already and we can post the fourth book in the next few days. Does that sound good?


message 176: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Yeah.

K


message 178: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Ok so I'm going to read Hex Hall agin so would you like me to put up Quotes as I find them than at the end do a poll for fav and then we can split up the books between us and do the same thing let me know what everyone thinks


message 179: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Sure. Do that. Is there any quotes coming along for last month's books?


message 180: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth do we have somewhere to do the quotes at or do I need to start one


message 181: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) You can create one. I usually just ask in the discussions but it'd be nice to have a thread specifically for the botm quote polls.


message 182: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth K done I can take Hex Hall for now cause thats what I'm reading so if someone else wants the others or If I get to them before someone else I will start the other ones


message 183: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) We should start coming up with a list of themes for the theme poll this month. I think we should have six different options this time.


message 184: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth I just was chatting with some one about the star crossed series I'm assuming its Magic cause the first book is called Reckless Magic


message 185: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth I would like to suggest the Maggie Henning & the Realm series too I would like to see what others think of the series and the Phoenex's guardian and friend is a witch so there is magic through the books


message 186: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I'm actually asking for just themes.


message 187: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth oh ok sorry how about

Unknown
some color
vampire
Shapeshifter
time travel
is this what you were thinking or am I still way off


message 188: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Yeah, like that.


message 189: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth need more


message 190: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) How about one more?


message 191: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth Faires
Heroines
Mermaids

message 192: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) Hmm. Maybe we can go with these options:

A color (but which one?)
Shapeshifter
Fairies
Strong Heroines
Contemporary
Unknown (or Lesser Known)

What does everyone think about that?


message 193: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth sounds good to me


message 194: by Jessica , Proud Bookaholic (new)

Jessica  (stuckinotherworlds) | 858 comments Mod
Great:D


message 195: by Leigh (new)

Leigh (leighsalv) Contemporaries! Contemporary books are always a good read especially since Summer is coming :) Or what about greek mythology like Percy Jackson?


message 196: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I could switch mythology in place for either shapeshifter or fairy.


message 197: by Leigh (new)

Leigh (leighsalv) That's good, b/c some shapeshifter books also have fairies in it or vice versa.


message 198: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I'm going to go ahead and create this month's BOTM book and theme polls.


message 199: by Kate (new)

Kate (kaitlins16) I just noticed that we're missing an entire folder. The Books to Movies one.
