Team Q (Fun) - Chat

[Stella]

Hahahaha, I have such a bad habit of buying books and not getting round to them for ages so I have ended up with two shelves of to reads.

[Nikki]

Oh how many you got on them?
I've whittled mine down to just 100 now yay lol

[Stella]

I think it's around 80 now :0 Going to take a while to get through...

[Nikki]

Lol better than me, are you a fast reader or average?

I find it hard to pace myself I either read all out or not much at all lol, my friends all know I can plough through books but they used to assume I was skim reading until I could sit there and tell them exactly what happened to who and whatnot lol

[Stella]

A lot of my friends don't read so I guess compared to them I am a fast reader, but in general I'm average. I can go right through a book in an afternoon if its really good but otherwise I'm pretty steady with my pace.
I have a pretty terrible memory when it comes to reading the next book in a series one year after the previous on so I usually have to go back and reread.

[Nikki]

Oh good it's not just me that has to do that lol I forget the first so always have to re read that then go on through the series otherwise I'll just repeat again and again lol

[Nikki]

Finished for letter S

[Stella]

Done with Talon and Kasey Screws Up the World.

[Stella]

and starting Boywatching by Chloe Bennet for 'B'

[Nikki]

Stella Have you been posting your reviews onto the review thread? I haven't seen any from you there?

[Stella]

No I haven't, sorry I was going to do that today! I've tried putting images into the comment box but it isn't working, could you please help me?

[Nikki]

Course, do you use the phone app or website?

[Stella]

website

[Nikki]

If you look above the comment box to the right of it there's a link that says "add book/cover" click that then a search box comes up type the books title in that and press search it'll find the cover and author of the book then click add and it adds it to the comment box :)

If that doesn't work tell me and we can can do it together step by step :)

[Stella]

Oh my gosh. That's so obvious I don't know how I didn't see that before! Thank you!

[Nikki]

That's ok, when I first started I didn't know until someone told me lol

[Nikki]

Has anyone got any Books that begin with E that they're planning to read this month?

[Stella]

I did have everything, everything on my kindle but it's vanished for some reason... I'll try and find it again but right now I don't have any E books, still looking tho. I do have Voyage of defiance by S.E. smith for a V

[Nikki]

Well that's good at least, im struggling on E books at the moment

Trying the plough my way through The Awakening and Barely Breathing Blurgh really hard going

want me to shove that on the list?

[Stella]

Yes thanks :)

[Nikki]

Finished barely breathing now and posted review, updated on comment here and Google doc :)

[Nikki]

Going to start for letter B

[Stella]

Oh wait! Sorry Nikki I wrote it in, I should have let you know. I read Boywatching for the second B, I think it is somewhere above in the comments.

[Nikki]

Ah damn, did you? How close to finishing are you Stella?

If quite close I can switch my book out to something else and read it for pleasure sake instead lol

[Stella]

I finished yesterday, I am so sorry! I really need to keep on top of letting you know directly.

[Nikki]

Lol that's ok Stella glad you told me now

That's one of the reasons I claim what I'm reading here :) no problems though easy enough to happen :)

[Stella]

I'm so sorry! i'm guessing you are the only one who can edit the comment box on the first page with the list of letters and all? I will make sure that I put it in the google docs next time.

[Nikki]

Yeah I am but if you leave a comment on this chat thread I can update comment and leave you to update the Google doc :)
I check for who's claiming what through the comments here really :)

[Stella]

Ok :) Well I'll make sure it doesn't happen again. So who is getting the B?

[Nikki]

You :) seeing as you've completed, just post your review link on the review thread :)

[Stella]

OK thank you so much!!

[Nikki]

Lol no need for thanks it's only fair :)

[Nikki]

Updated the comment and Google doc for you :)

[Ammo]

Hey guys, sorry it's taking me so long to read the foxhole court...I've had heaps of assessments and homework and I can't really get into but it's not that long so hopefully I'll be able to finish it soon xx

[Nikki]

That's ok Amrita all the best with the assignments :)

[Nikki]

Assessments even lol

[Nikki]

I'm going to claim an L and E
L- loved by Morgan rice
E- embrace

[Nikki]

I've started reading embrace for a letter E
Does anyone else have any E's planned?

[Stella]

Thanks Nikki!! Also, I saw your comment on the scrabble game home page about our chat not being that great. I get what you mean :( But i think a lot of our group is busy, I try to be on here regularly and I get notifications when people comment but sometimes I just don't have the time to talk, it's coming to the end of the school term and we have been dumped with all these assessments one after the other so I'm sorry if I'm not that interesting to talk to. I'm just pretty stressed out!
And somehow I have absolutely no E books! out of the 300 something books i have there is literally no E books. I'm going to a book sale tomorrow though so I will try and find something for E or A or I, any of those ones that have heaps of spots to fill! Also I just wanted to thank you for your hard work and everyone else's on this challenge. I was so happy with the awesome reception this month, it being my first try and all.
Yikes long message... I should probably sleep now.

[Nikki]

Lol I didn't mean that all of us don't talk Stella I just meant it's been one of the quietest fun teams I've been on and for me it's weird or maybe I'm too much of a chatterbox lol

[Jennifer]

Finished

[Stella]

Haha, I often talk way too much and over-explain things :) Ok, I just wanted to be sure :)

[Nikki]

Yay Jennifer well done :)

And yeah Stella that's usually me lol

[Stella]

Haha, relatable? I have the annoying habit of thinking something sounds funny in my head and then telling other people and trying to explain why it's funny. I probably just sound nuts.

[Nikki]

Updated on the comment here and the google docs for you Jennifer :)

Want to share my straight jacket? Lol it makes perfect sense to me

[Nikki]

I'm currently reading I'll be starting and tonight so hopefully I'll have one possibly 2 done tonight :)

[Nikki]

Finished Embrace for letter E, reviewed and posted and updated on Google doc

[Stella]

Awesome! If Significance is any good please let me know! I saw it on netgalley and was going to download it but wasn't sure. Still looking for more E books, for a letter that has heaps of spots you'd think I would have more books with E.

[Nikki]

Of course I will Stella I'm actually surprised I don't have many books beginning with E I thought I had tons lol but nope probably 2/3
