Inês | 583 comments I'm so jealous of all your bookshelves! I mostly own ebooks, because most of them aren't translated in my language and it's easier to order them that way, and cheaper, I would love to have them in paper, though.
I want to join! I'll try and post some pictures from my ereader, later. :)

You need to upload the pictures first, either as photos on your profile, or somewhere like www.photobucket.com.

Once you have them uploaded, you can see how to get them in to a post here- https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
Lindsey - sorry I didn't cover re-reads above!

You can have up to 2 solo re-reads, but if you're buddy reading I'll allow unlimited re-reads
(buddy reading rules apply still, and new reviews must be written with different details to any original review ☺)

- please note these amendments to our normal rules apply only to this challenge.

You're fine to read at your own pace with vampire academy, if you still discuss it with us you're fine ☺

I'm just waiting to see if Abbie wants to read The Luxe with us because she can't do saturdays ☺

Tessa (tessa_ioana) | 1861 comments @Sarah, how about 13 march for The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer (Mara Dyer, #1) by Michelle Hodkin
I'll join you for Untold as well. I remember I wanted to read it with you last year. Guess none of us managed to get to it XD.

@Tatiana,

I would like to join you for All Our Yesterdays (All Our Yesterdays #1) by Cristin Terrill as well.

Here is a buddy read for: Red Rising (Red Rising Trilogy, #1) by Pierce Brown : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... [but since this was published in 2014 I don't think it counts for the challenge]

And here is the topic for Prince of Thorns (The Broken Empire, #1) by Mark Lawrence : https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

@Maria, wanna read Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green together?

@Christina, I can join you for The School for Good and Evil (The School for Good and Evil, #1) by Soman Chainani .

Whoa...it's only February and you had already changed your goal twice? I didn't set my goal as high as last year because I want to read more high fantasy and classic books in English. I don't have guts to read those genre in English. But it's my personal challenge and I need more time to read it.

I'm going to start it next month, so I won't read much books for the challenge :D


message 138: by Christina (new)

Christina | 4293 comments @Rachmi
Only added like increments of 10-15 haha. Better safe than sorry xD
Good luck! I have yet to read high fantasy and more classics too
So far it's all been Young/New Adult! So easy to digest ^^


message 139: by Kate (new)

It's because of you mods. If I didn't join challenges I won't read 30 books so far and seeing books I have to read is kinda stress me out :D

This one should help me get through a few paperbacks! I kept putting them off since my kindle came into my life! Haha.

Tati Gosh, so many tempting shelves... But I'll be a good girl and restrain myself and not schedule anymore buddy reads, as March is already fully booked.
