Just for fun this time! I don't know how many books I want to read next month, probably less than this month :)
in for fun, but can I be moved to serious teams if I read more than 8?
Mod
That should be doable ☺
This next month, as I'll be a tourist in Germany for most of it, I'll join a fun team
So we finally have a challenge where Graphic novels and manga count? I am SO in! serious

In for serious! So excited to finally be able to read graphic novels for a challenge. I just bought Watchmen and can't wait to read it.
In for serious. I'm so excited to be able to read anything & everything without the pressure, like this past month (a book set in DisneyWorld is gonna kill me!!!)
I'd like to join just for fun please :)
I'm in for serious, Planning on 11 I have been planning on reading.
When are we allowed to post what books we would like to buddy read? Can we post it now to organize the buddy read so it's ready to start in September?
Yes, Christina. Just go to this thread and start searching for buddies: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...:)
Sign me up for fun team please! Thanks :)
If I read more than 8 books, can I be switched to a serious team? I wanted to be added to a fun team bc I'm moving house but I thought I wasn't going to be able to read in July either and read almost 38 books :P
Mod
That's fine ☺
I am in for fun ( I know I wont be able to read as much because of school, unless I wanna include my textbook haha)
I'll be part of a just for fun team :)
im completely in. i've never done reading as a challenge so i'll start off on fun for now
I'm gonna be reading books but I might switch to manga so I'm just wondering, does it count to read it online or do you need to have it physically
Format doesn't usually matter. As long as it has a goodreads page and you have a page count. :)

The Chase is over, Jumanji is back in it's box, and that man has well and truly been hung, so now it's time to sit back, relax, and read... whatever you want!
This will be a team challenge (so that you guys can chat), but the rules are a little more relaxed, so you can read what YOU want to read ☺
Points:
*50 - 100 pages = 0.5 points
*101 - 199 pages = 1 point
*200 - 299 pages = 2 points
*300 - 399 pages = 3 points
and so on... (maximum of 6 points per book)
*Poetry/Graphic novels/illustrated books = 1/3 of above points, so a 300 page book is worth 1 point.
*Buddy reads DOUBLE your points score, so a 300 page book + buddy read = 6 points. (Bonus points for buddy reads will only be given if the buddy read has taken place in our group.)
*You may have as many re-reads as you like ☺
Rules:
* This challenge will run from September 1st to September 30th, with results announced on October 1st.
*Books started before September can be used, but you must only claim the number of pages read in September.
*Buddy reads must still have a minimum of 4 comments to count.
*4 detailed updates can be used instead of a review.
So, let us know whether you're planning on reading 8 or more books (serious), or any number of books (just-for-fun), and lets get some reading done this september ☺
