Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53684 comments Mod
Yeah I have like 400 books on my shelf and I haven't even read 350 of them.


message 554: by Cielo (new)

Cielo | 127 comments Some of my books aren't in English, they're in Spanish. I can still read those right? It doesn't matter that it's in a different language?


message 555: by Jamie (new)

Jamie Ekens (thebookkisser) | 500 comments @Kate - Are you still available for The Sky is Everywhere? :3


message 556: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53684 comments Mod
Yeah I believe so Cielo. :)

Jamie, what's the next book I'm reading with you? I just need to remember who I'm reading what with and who's shelf it's come from lol.


message 557: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Jamie, I can do it on the 21st. Is that okay?


message 558: by Jamie (new)

Jamie Ekens (thebookkisser) | 500 comments @Kate - Yes that'd be okay! :) I'll just look for a thread, hold on.

@Maddison - Second Glance! March 5 :)


message 559: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53684 comments Mod
OMG JAMIE!!!! I have The Prince (0.5), The Elite (2) and The Guard (2.5)

So I can read The Elite whenever you like. :D The numbers in the brackets are what # in the series they are.


message 560: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53684 comments Mod
Oh right! Thanks! I think I'll be starting that one a little later than the others because I haven't yet started the one I'm meant to have started today. And it'll take a while longer for me to read Second Glance. But I also need to squish The Elite in there as well haha. Are you able to get hold of The Prince and The Guard?


message 561: by Jamie (new)

Jamie Ekens (thebookkisser) | 500 comments @Kate - Kate I found the thread! I'll ask the mods to change the date! :) I'm really excited to read this book AHHH I heard it's really good.

@Maddison - That's awesome! Though I only have The Prince. :( I'll try to get The Guard! The thread for Elite https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... We hafta set a date!!!


message 562: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53684 comments Mod
You can set the date haha. If I'm reading anything else on that date then this one will come first.

And we can read The Guard whenever as well. It won't take long because both of the novellas are 64 pages. But The Guard has a sneak-peak of The One (#3) in it so we should read The Elite first before reading The Guard.


message 563: by Jamie (new)

Jamie Ekens (thebookkisser) | 500 comments @Kate - Here's the thread for The Sky is Everywhere https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

@Maddison - Do we have threads for The Guard and The Prince?

That's fine ☺


message 566: by Rachmi (new)

Rachmi  | 4882 comments Sarah, so sorry I have to resign from the challenge. I have problems with my left eye. It's my third times for the same problem at the same eye for about 8 months. So I think I'm going to take a rest on my eyes.

To Tessa, Tatiana, Christina, Maddison, Rachel and other members that I have buddy reads schedule, I'll still buddy read with you guys but I'll do it slowly and need more times than I usually do. Please bear it with me :D


message 567: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
Sorry to hear that Rachmi, hope you are feeling better soon! If you do read anything you can still put it in, every point gives you a chance to win ☺

Christina | 4293 comments @Rachmi
Oh no :( Get well soon!

A reading challenge makes me want to read as many books as possible and don't know why but sometimes is kinda freak me out :D I think the best way is to resign to give my eyes and mind a rest, hehehe

Thank you, Christina. I think I have one buddy read with you but I don't remember what book :D I'll check on buddy read thread later.

@Kathryn - I wanna read Anna and the French Kiss with you! :)


message 575: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments I just noticed there were Equaliser points (applied at the end) - 5 additional points for every 1000 pages read.

This is a good idea! Some books planned this month are gigantic!


message 576: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
Yes ☺ That's my quirk though, it won't apply on other challenges. I think you should get more points if you read bigger books, but it took me a while to try and think of a way to do it!


message 577: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments Very witty!
Especially when I saw (I think it was) Jamie who tackled a 1200 page book for the snakes & ladders challenge haha
To be commended!


message 578: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
Those game of throne books are huge! absolute monsters. I thought Monsters (Ashes Trilogy, #3) by Ilsa J. Bick was bad at 800+, but 1200+? nuts!

Jenni (thefabjenni) | 339 comments Sorry, I forgot The Glimpse if anyone's interested in buddying?

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53684 comments Mod
Don't diss game of thrones haha. They're amazing!

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
I can't work them out. i find books that come with maps tend to confuse me.


message 582: by Kate (new)

Kate ★ (spillsandspoils) | 973 comments Are we supposed to find the edition that has the most number of pages? :/


message 583: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
You can, it's up to you ☺

That one was a long book! It was perfect for Snakes and Ladders challenge because we get to count the pages. It's a good thing we still count the pages in this challenge! :)

That's a bargain and the book is amazing :) .

Wow, you guys are so fast with the reviews! Need to motivate myself to write them for the books I actually managed to finish XD.


message 589: by Tati (new)

Tati Tessa, I have two reviews to write, but I'm too lazy to actually sit down and write them


message 590: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments The lazy way out is 4 detailed status updates :)


message 591: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53684 comments Mod
No the lazy way is just shove some spoilers in there and say what you thought about them haha.

That's okay :) With the hundred of names in there, rereading is a must!

You can add as many as you like, whenever you want ☺ You don't have to take more photos if you've already taken one either, you can just add their covers or links ☺
