That's okay, i haven't started it yet, if you wanna trade me for something else that'll be okay too, i have most of the books needed for all the goals so i can always grab something else.

Brooke ♥booklife4life♥ (booklife4life) | 6443 comments So far i've finished Borrowed, Destination, and Flower on Cover. Most of the ones assigned to me, i won't be able to get to til this weekend as i don't have a whole lot of free time for real books during the week and can knock out audio books during the week. Having a really rough mental week this week so i'm hoping it doesn't affect me too much reading wise, i'm attempting to push through it.

That's great! :) And sorry :)
I'm reading the book with a men on the cover (and I'vre read a girl on the cover and female POV) so you can grab the description that you prefer :)

And it's ok, there's no hurry! And you have done great so far :)

Heather | 10157 comments is it okay if I post a review for Male POV?


message 156: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments It's a Brooke goal this round but she hasn't read it yet (or at least, she hasn't read it until yesterday), but I think it's ok :)
We can alway ask point for the second round, it's ok :)

I'm attempting to get them up tonight. Usually i'm on a computer all day at work but they past week i guess i pissed someone off and i have been in roles without my computer, but tonight i'm back on one, so i *should* be able to get to them tonight, if not, then for sure tomorrow when i'm off work i can get them done :D

Thanks I will go edit it!


message 168: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments Great job to everyone! :)

I've finished the book for man on the cover. I would post the review soon! :)

And I'm reading the book for "Adult".
I'm reading another book, too, for another challenge, but I think I could menage to use it for this one too, maybe for the second round (a venue for a wedding or the honeymoon)


message 169: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments Ok I've finished The Luxe (Luxe, #1) by Anna Godbersen so just writing the review and already started reading Six of Crows (Six of Crows, #1) by Leigh Bardugo for A New Book

Will also be cracking on with The Siren (The Original Sinners, #1) by Tiffany Reisz for a book with shoes on the cover with the intention of finishing that within the week if not before.

Then once I've finished Six Of Crows will be reading Ink and Bone (The Great Library, #1) by Rachel Caine for honeymoon location.


message 170: by Brooke (new)

Brooke ♥booklife4life♥ (booklife4life) | 6443 comments today i finished #s 6, 3, and 18.
tomorrow ill get #s 2, 5, 24, and 29 done :) reviews will have to wait til monday night thou. :)


message 171: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments Great work Brooke! :) And for the review is ok :)

Sooo... with the future reading of Brooke we would start the round 2 (because 2 and 5 are done yet). And we are doing great with the first round too! :)

Abby and Heather can you write what category are you reading and what you think you'll read next? So we can make the point :)

I have to write the reviews for male on the cover L'uomo di Marte by Andy Weir and an adult book Il Siberiano (La mia vendetta con te, #2) by Giovanna Roma (I'll write it soon, I promise!). I've finished another book, too, Polvere negli occhi by Agatha Christie but it can count for a venue or honeymoon (and they are not mine in this round) so I'll wait to post the review so we can use it where it would help us to gain more point! :)
And today I would start the book for white cover Captive Prince Volume Two (Captive Prince, #2) by C.S. Pacat


message 172: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I am reading Couple on the Cover and then Make up on the cover!


message 173: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments That's good! :)
Now I'm starting the white cover one, but as soon as I finish it (and I think I would finish it tonight) I'll start the blue one so we can almost finish the first part! ^_^


message 174: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I will hopefully finish both of these today!

Abby | 5404 comments I'm reading Cemetery Dance (Pendergast, #9) by Douglas Preston and P.S. I Love You by Cecelia Ahern but I'm not sure what categories are open for the first round. It's a bit chaotic on our thread here. :/

message 177: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments So I think that Abby current book could go for the second rund (you can request the point, I think :) ) because they can count for male POV and dress on the cover (if they can count for something else, Abby tell us! :) ).

And I also think that we could try to finish the part 1 this week, because Heather said that she has covered point 1 and point 9, Rebecca said she would start read the book for point 6 and tomorrow I would start the book for point 7.
Abby you can read the book for point 3?


message 178: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I'm a quarter of the way through with Point #1 now :)


message 179: by Abby (new)

Abby | 5404 comments The book I have for tiara on the cover doesn't come out until the 9th and even then, I don't know when my library will get it. So if anyone has something else for that, go ahead and read it.


message 180: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I have princess Diaries


message 181: by Abby (new)

Abby | 5404 comments Also, Cemetery Dance doesn't count for Male POV. I could use it for wedding venue though if you don't mind, Heather.


message 182: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I don't mind!

Ok, sorry for that! :)

And so... Heather, would you cover point 3?
And good job for your currently reading! :)

Sure! I will cover Point 3 :)


message 185: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments Thank you! :) So this week we could manage to take some bonus point! :)


message 186: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I'm doing a buddy read for Maybe Someday (Maybe, #1) by Colleen Hoover right now for couple on the cover! Could Snow Like Ashes (Snow Like Ashes, #1) by Sara Raasch fit anywhere I have a buddy read I am participating with it too!


message 187: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments You can use it for the next round: a venue for a wedding or honeymoon :) The world of this book is really intersting! :)


message 188: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments ok- I'm a bit confused, does everyone in the team have to read minimum of 12 books? Because are we going to have enough points for each person to read 12 books. Or have I made that up?

Also I have started Six of Crows (Six of Crows, #1) by Leigh Bardugo

Awesome thanks!


message 190: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments Yes, we have to read at least 12 books and yes, we have enough point :) Because we have 37 point for round and 4 rounds, so there is plenty enough!
We are just going trought the first round in order to finish more part and gain more point :)

And that's good! Also.. I loved that book, I hope that you like it, too! *_*


message 191: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments So there are going to be more categories?


message 192: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments The categories are the same, but we can redo them for four times as a group. You as single can not remake a category.

For example: we can read four books that can count for blue cover, but I can't read more than one book for this category. The other three times has to be someone else to read it.


message 193: by Brooke (new)

Brooke ♥booklife4life♥ (booklife4life) | 6443 comments I know im reading ones that arent mine, but some of them are series and the books i *supposed* to read this round are 2nd or 3rd in the series so i kinda had to read others to get to them...


message 194: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments Which ones are you reading Brooke?


message 195: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments That's not a problem, expecially because you are a fast reader so if you read a book that is not yours int his round the book of the other person could count for the second :)


message 196: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments Sibil thank you for explaining :) Sorry to be a bother but I understand now so you did good :)


message 197: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments Also Brooke not to worry
