Mandiann, I have to agree with you. I'm reading Visions In White, but I just am not into it!! And I don't think I will be. All for a cause though! Lol

[Mandiann]

Exactly. I am almost 60% through. I figure I can do the rest but man is the writing annoying.

[Vicki]

I think, in part, it's just not our genre...leastwise not mine. I haven't given up yet, so I'm looking for redeeming qualities that's help me like it more. I mean this is a Nora Roberts book. I'm pretty sure I have 5-6 of her books at home on my bookcase, but I haven't read any yet. If my first experience doesn't end better, I'll probably give those books away and skip them.

[Mandiann]

Finally done!! I have read worse but wasn't great./

Is there a schedule somewhere for when the movies will be posted each week? I saw Gisbelle's from earlier in this thread, but couldn't find anything more updated for the current challenge

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

They will be posted on the weekends.

[★ℕłℂØℓҾ★ (Nix), snowflakes and eyelashes]

And the challenges run Monday to Monday?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

No. They end on Thursday and start on Friday.

[★ℕłℂØℓҾ★ (Nix), snowflakes and eyelashes]

Gotcha :) thanks!

For the second challenge, would Susane work for Susan? I thought I would check :)

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

Yeah.

I have a question, will Julia work for Julian?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

No. Only because they aren't the same gender.

so does that mean that Charley( girl) would not work for Charlie(boy)?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

Those would work. Julia doesn't work for Julian because Julian is never called Julia for short.

Hi, I got a question. I found a sci-fi book called that has New York as one of the places that the story include for the fictional book. By the way, I was wondering if I could read it, even if it doesn't include New York as the main setting in general for the whole entire book for week 2?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

That's fine.

[Natalie]

Can I count Katerine as Kate? There's mention of Kat as the short form in the book as well..

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

That's fine.

I have two questions about week three. Will lover work for love and can you use 'shelved as set in London' for setting even if the book does not take place in London?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

Lover will work. If the book doesn't take place in London then it doesn't count.

Hannah,

when is the very last day we can post the last points for this game?

3 of us are done with our last book so I can post the points anytime with just 3 if my 4th isn't here by the cut off date :)

I'm curious to see how our points panned out and which team scored the most :D

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

We can give everyone until Friday to get finished.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

awesome, Thank you!

[Sarah | Kerosene.Lit]

That's good to know. For week four (and possibly week three), not everyone participated in my team, and I wasn't sure if I should post the points without them, or just not bother.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

soo......How'd we do on the Christmas edition??
I'm curious to see how the points added up! :)

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

I should get to it sometime today. I started off the year sick and now I'm trying to catch up on all my updating in this group.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

oh no. I'm so sorry Hannah!
I hope you are feeling better!!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Just to clarify, the actual book for the movie is off limits, right?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

Right. I believe that when Gisbelle did it that was her rule too.

[Trinity]

Would the cover count since I see a spotch of sky in the cover but I wasn't sure if it was enough. And for character name, the character is deceased but they mention him quite a few times in this after I searched his name in the book. Would these points be acceptable?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

That's fine.

[Trinity]

Yay!! Thank you. :)

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Do we wait to start books until 2/1
or can we start anything but only finish sometime after the start date?

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

Can't start them until the 1st.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Just FYI

looks like Lonely Hearts Club lost our teammate Gwen

her posts now say "deleted user"

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Hannah, I went ahead and posted Lonely Hearts club post for our points
and I added a book from another teammate to cover our loss of Gwen (so 2 books from one person)

please let me know if that's not okay and I can remove the points

thx! :)

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

That's fine. At least now you won't be way behind in points.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay! Thanks!! :D

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Hannah,

would Belle Epoque work for "beauty" in the title?

Belle translates to Beautiful or Beauty......

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

That's fine.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay! thanks!

Ifthe game started on 4/1/16, does the book need to be started on 4/1 or can it be one that we started before hand and finish on 4/1

[☆☆Hannah☆☆, The Book Junkie]

As long as you finish it on or after April 1 is fine.

[[deleted user]]

just wondering when the next sign-up is, I know it's way to late for April, but is there going to be a May game?
