Please read Ugly Love! And keep me updated on how you're liking it pleeeease. I loved that book!

[Heather]

Definitely will! I was saying The Knife of Never Letting Go because of the page length!

[Maddie]

But you'll get both read this month right? And either way, it'll give you 4 points. P

[Heather]

I hope so lol if not I will read other contemporary books!

[Katrina G]

I'll be starting another buddy read today

[Heather]

Yay Katrina! I will be finishing another one tonight if I can find the energy to finish the book!

[Maddie]

Awesome!

[Maddie]

Another review going up :)

[Maddie]

Added to my shelf

[Maddie]

And

[Heather]

Y'all I swear I am trying to finish the books I am currently reading for more reviews!

[Maddie]

Yeah I hope I can read a few more too.

[Maddie]

Not going too well though. Was meant to start the assassins blade yesterday and be finishing it by the 24th so I can start the siren, but I have a feeling that won't happen. I haven't even really started the one before assassins blade. Bleh.

@Maddison read something short and fun if you're not in the mood for these long books..

[Heather]

I'm hoping to start and finish Ugly Love tonight!

@Ashwag
I don't know if you found someone to read The Winner's Kiss with you, but we are reading it this weekend in the series thread so I just wanted to let you know because I told you I would.

yeah I still haven't found someone to read it with. Thank you so much Irena.. this weekend sounds perfect :)

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Thay's cool then!

[Irena BookDustMagic]

*That's

[Heather]

I'm home for the rest of the day! Have to do some quick cleaning and then reading the rest of the time!!

[Katrina G]

I have school and work today, but hopefully I can finish by buddy read tonight. If not, it will for sure be done by tomorrow

[Irena BookDustMagic]

I'll finish another book today and then tomorrow I'll make myself to write at least two reviews.

[Heather]

Irena that's probably a good idea!

[Aneesa]

Guys I am sorry I have been a little bit awol, not feeling too good and I had so much work to do! I promise to read a few books this weekend! :)

[Heather]

no problem aneesa!

[[deleted user]]

My review is up! I wanted to join The Young Elites BR, but I won't be able to do it XD My next book is going to be - BR also.

[Aneesa]

Thank you Heather ^^

[Maddie]

Yeah but they're buddy reads :p And they've not actually that long, just The Assassin's Blade that's over 400 pages.

[Maddie]

Finally got another review up. Hoping to start Assassin's Blade tonight and finish tomorrow, but probably won't get it done tomorrow. If I don't, who knows when I will :/ I'll try my hardest.

[Maddie]

Go team! 4 points ahead :D I reckon we actually could beat them, but I read on their thread that someone's about to finish The 5th Wave, and they BRed it with Heather and I, so that'll give them another 4 points.

[Heather]

No worries Maddison i'm doing another BR for The Wrath and The Dawn I just have to find an edition with 23 more pages than the one I am using now!

[Maddie]

Awesome! And I'm 50 pages into The Assassin's Blade.

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Guys, we managed to beat them at this moment, but not only them, we are actually better then two serious teams, so that's amazing.

I plan to read today almost all day and finally write some reviews, plus, tomorrow Dewey's 24hour readathon starts and I am participating in it so I hope we'll have more poijts.

I have a feeling Philadelphia is reading a lot even though they don't post many reviews lately.

[Maddie]

Yeah that's true, but Ashwag always reads big books. I really hope you get over your review slump Irena, because we may need those points.

[Heather]

Nearly finished with my books and if my date plans fall through for tomorrow then I will be participating in the Dewey's Read a thon too!

[Irena BookDustMagic]

We will get them, don't worry! I will review at least two books today and then I will do the rest tomorrow before the readathon starts.

If I don't get over with my reviewing slump I'll just write short ones instead and then replace them with the full ones later.

We will get those points, please don't worry!

I won't let our team down, I promise!

[Heather]

I have to push 6 more books out to make the 8 book requirement!

[Heather]

I just posted another review! Can't wait to read all this weekend!! Off to my interview I will be back soon y'all!

[Katrina G]

Does it bug anyone else when you have a buddy read set up, but the buddy doesn't show up?

[Irena BookDustMagic]

It bugs me!
But you know what I hate. When your buddy does not interact with you but only in an amount of an hour posts four comments that are so brief that you even doubt he read the book at all.
It so obvious he posted something just to get points for the challenge.

[Katrina G]

I've been guilty of doing that before. But usually that only happens when it's been days sense the other person finished the book. Like when I read Matched for this challenge. Everyone had already finished it, so I was kind of on my own.

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Yes, but that is kind of different though.

[Heather]

I'm sorry I am super guilty about not showing up for buddy reads! I plan them and actually read the books I just forget that I had a BR set up for it..... an epileptic brain does that to me sometimes!

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Posted 2 reviews today, will do more tomorrow!

[Maddie]

You've only read 2 books this month, Heather? That's surprising! Thought you'd read more!

[Katrina G]

I'm out of buddy reads to join in. I'm still not even half way through Game of Thrones, so I'm just going to focus on finishing that before this challenge ends.

[Maddie]

That'd be awesome!

weirdly, no it does not bug me as I'd rather do my own reading of the book then if they show up I'll discuss it if not then they might be busy or forgot or maybe they don't want to read the book anymore.. some readers are spontaneous and I'd rather not overthink it as I'd end up reading the book whether they did so or not, that's just me :)

[Maddie]

Sometimes I don't like posting updates, or writing reviews, I only really use buddy reads as more points for challenges and as motivation.
