7% Solution Challenge - June/July

[Hina]

Sorry Ladies I am so behind, but I just haven't been able to catch up since my dad was in the hospital, between work, school and life and reading there is always something or the other. But I am working on it now and hopefully will have something to put up soon. But so far just going by what's posted here and not even looking at my own books and JoLene we are already getting a lot of the categories done. I promise I will have something to post tomorrow.

FYI, We can also use the updated teams from the end of june sunday update to do Colors Ahead and Colors Behind

I think from the last June Update (Correct me if I am wrong):

Radical Red is ahead of us.
Purple Mountain Majesty is Behind Us.

I've updated message #233 as well, which shows all the books I've read since the end of the 7% Challenge - Round I.

Also, I'm terribly off course with my reading schedule for July, as many of the books I've been waiting on have become available at the library.

[Hina]

LOL Jingles, I think we are past surpassing even the second round with this many books.

[Hina]

Hi all

So We are beyond done the second round, since we only needed to finish 5 categories, I will be submitting them today. But I kept my own spreadsheet since I was so sporadic with getting on our thread to update.

Below is the link to the spreadsheet, please bear in mind that I went by what was posted, and even in that I didn't update all since there were a lot more books read than what we needed for the challenge, like for example if we counted the books right, the Moonstone category could have been done a third time, but it wouldn't have counted. So If you don't see your books up there, I apologize, I am cramped for time, so I just spent majority of it finishing the category. Thanks all for you patience. I will be submitting categories today for approval.

Hina, your spreadsheet is very clear. We'll just review it and save you time typing everything over.

Oh Okay...Well I submitted one already on the finished category thread. Thanks! Please let me know if there are any issues.

[Moderators of NBRC]

You ready for me to look at it, then?

[Hina]

Yes, but I think it will be harder in the sense that the covers are not there for some of the categories that need it and I don't see the spell it out portion, are bold which I did on my file. Should I just post it as it suppose to show.

[Moderators of NBRC]

Yes, I do like to see the covers. ☺ Thanks!

Sweet. Now we can relax until August. haha
Good job Hina.

[jingles]

That's fantastic, Hina. Thank you for everything!

[JoLene]

Ok, somehow, I missed out on this thread.....and me trying to read all the BOM and buddy reads were for nothing :-(

Thanks for getting it all posted, Hina, and I hope your dad is OK.

[Barbara ★]

Not for nothing JoLene. Those biggies can be used for bouncing cupcakes which will help us as well.

[Hina]

Don't worry JoLene, they are going to come in handy! It was definitely not for just nothing.
