maria helena (mariahel) We've now finished 6 categories! (#5 three times, #6 once and #7 twice).

What we need:
5 books for category 1 (behind enemy lines) or
3 books for category 3 (color behind, atomic tangerine/orange) or
5 books for category 6 (From May’s R-a-T Mini Challenges)

For category 6, letters left to use are N, R, O, S, and E.

Some of the books from cat 5 can also be moved around (many of them will work for cat 6) so that is also an alternative.

If you are curious about how Zara and I have distributed the books among the categories, they are in a separate spreadsheet here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/c... (on the second tab "Challenge Categories")

Great work team!

Dragana (diaryofthebookdragon) Great job team and Zara and Maria Helena for mixing it up.

I noticed that 'Entwined with You' is not on a list of books I read? It can work for cat #1. You can see the list of all books I have read for this challenge here.

Dragana (diaryofthebookdragon) Are we done with this challenge? I took a peek at the spreadsheet and it looks like we completed all categories.
I'm not sure if I should post more of the books I have read or not. :)

I'm about to find out Dragana. I'm going to send a copy of the spreadsheet to the mods for them to have a look at and I'll let you know.

What book you don't read for this challenge you may want to put towards our own team's July mini challenges. I posted these mini challenges today in this group under our team name with the heading 'Let's Celebrate' or something akin to that. Have a look and see if you can utilise these challenges.

I can now update you all. I have just submitted the categories for this challenge and have been awarded 4 bonus book points. So we have successfully completed this challenge. Well done everyone.

Currently we are at 14th place on the leaderboard but I need to do a further check of tallies shortly. Just keep on reading and we'll make progress. One thing that may help is reading shorter books, like ones that are the minimum number of pages (160) this way you should be able to get through more books more quickly. having said that, I've really been enjoying seeing what everyone's been reading.

Dragana (diaryofthebookdragon) Thanks for the update Zara. Yay for us. Congrats team! :)


message 119: by Zara's Retreat (new)

Zara's Retreat Hello everyone. I just received a PM from the mods about the bouncing cupcakes that teams could earn. For this to happen the last four puzzles need to be completed to get one. I've done 98 and 100. I need someone to do 97 and 99 so we can be in the running for this cupcake. If any of you could help out that would be great.

The puzzles can be found at: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...
