Karsyn  (imzadi) While I'm still figuring this all out, feel free to use my June finished reads where you can ~

We changed the ruling. You no longer have to write a set of DQs, Imke. You are answering the DQs and taking part in the discussion. So, you're golden, as far as #4 goes.

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) Please keep this thread to finished book postings only please. Use the other threads for discussion. I will answer Riya's question in the update thread.

Added Brooke's books.

Added The Engagements from Michael's books.


message 56: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) Books added up to here.


message 57: by Karsyn (new)

Karsyn  (imzadi) Realized one of my book could count (thought it was under the limit and it wasn't) and I finished up one as well, so here's two more for ya.

Brazen (Brazen, #1) by Maya Banks Sworn to Silence (Kate Burkholder, #1) by Linda Castillo


message 58: by Mary X (last edited Jun 10, 2013 11:37AM) (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) I stole Brazen from your read shelf yesterday. I'm sneaky like that. Just added Sworn to Silence.

ETA: just realized that I missed some book posts in my delerium last night. So going backwards to make sure I have all the finished books accounted for in the 7% thread.

I think I have it all fixed now.


message 59: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) I think we might actually have our 49 books done. Let me move some books around.


ilovebakedgoods (Teresa) (ilovebakedgoods) | 362 comments Wow. That'd be amazing, if so. I haven't even scratched the surface on my own reading, LOL.


message 61: by Mary X (last edited Jun 10, 2013 12:33PM) (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) We are done with a few books to spare.

Maybe. I might have to remove some players because the teams were combined becuase they were small and then new players were added.

I spent a long time updating this thing and now I have headache and I don't think I can look at it anymore for awhile.


message 62: by Riya (new)

Riya Should we still add books?


message 63: by Mary X (last edited Jun 10, 2013 12:57PM) (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) Yes. I might need them to replace books from players that I have to drop.

And here I've broken my own rule about this being for finished book postings only. I'll punish myself later.

(I might have to drop some books from players who aren't active in the 7% challenge to make it fair to the other teams). Most of you regularly posting here should be staying on the 7% challenge.

ilovebakedgoods (Teresa) (ilovebakedgoods) | 362 comments I finished Where She Went (If I Stay, #2) by Gayle Forman Where She Went, by Gayle Forman. The only category it might fit is #6 (I think?). It takes place in New York City. I don't remember if that was a favorite vacation destination or not. We don't really *need* this book but go ahead and use it as a buffer if you want and think it fits the task.

Finished: June 11.

Barbara (worthwhilereading) Finished

In the Shadow of the Banyan by Vaddey Ratner


message 66: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) We're done and I am submitting all our books for approval.

Thanks everyone. We did awesome on this. I had no idea we'd get it done so quickly.

Nika  ♥Marie♥ (mylknhoney) I just finished Fallen Too Far (Too Far, #1) by Abbi Glines on the 10th


message 68: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) We decided to see if we can fill it in again. So keep posting your finished books if you want to. Just for fun and not mandatory. We just finished so quickly we thought it would be fun to try again.

Pray for Silence (Kate Burkholder, #2) by Linda Castillo

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) Since I have a helper now with updating, I'll post my finished books here too instead of just fitting them in somehwere.

message 74: by Vicky (last edited Jun 14, 2013 07:51AM) (new)

Vicky (librovert) Added books up to here to the spreadsheet and moved over books that we read but didn't use for the first round.


message 75: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 135 comments Cool Vicky. I can add books throughout the month as I go.


message 76: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) We decided to wait to do any update posts until we have more. Less moving around that way.


message 77: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 135 comments I would think us doing this again could count for a team mini challenge? But I don't know how that works?


message 78: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) We don't get any extra credit for running our own mini-challenges. It's just something fun to encourage more people to post & read and because most of us are challenge junkies.

I figured the 2nd round of the 7% challenge would be our own personal June mini-challenge. We'll put something else up in July.


message 79: by Riya (new)

Riya *Since you're doing this so passionately, if this helps: Rise of a Hero (the book I've read that is included in this challenge) could be under 7 letters since it is part of the Farsala series (Farsala=7 letters)
