I'm the same! I read the first 4 a few years ago now, and I own all of them, and I just really really want to finally get stuck in and re-read them so I can finish off the series. And I can't wait till the show either! 8 days!

[Maddie]

Would anyone be interested in BRing these this month, or if any of you are doing the May Page Count Challenge next month?

[Maddie]

Out of those, these ones are over 450 pages so we'd get more points. Assuming we can count them if we didn't read that specific edition?
Incarceron
The Red Pyramid
Hush Hush (one version of it)
The Summoning (again, one version of it, but it's in another language. Can we still count that?)
A Court of Thorn and Roses (in another language)
Uprooted
Assassin's Blade (kindle edition)

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Maddison, if you don't find anyone for ACOTAR I'll read it with you, but if possible on 25th April or later because I won't be able to do it sooner because I have other buddy reads sheduled.

[Maddie]

I've found someone for the 1st, thanks though :)

[Maddie]

And Philadelphia's now 5 points up.

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Okay, that's cool.

And as for Philadelphia, I am so sorry for my lack of reading, I didn't read a page yesrerday, it was just one of those days when so many things happen and you hang out with ppl and then the whole day is over and you're just too tired to read...

But today I don't plan to be social all that much and I literally plan to read as much as I can to catch up with my reading.

[Maddie]

Haha awesome :) I haven't read much today either, only 100 pages, but tomorrow I'm on for a few hours in the morning so I plan to finish my book and start another :)

[Heather]

I am here all day reading with nothing planned at all!!

[[deleted user]]

Heather, are you still reading City of Bones with me on the 26th?

[Maddie]

What's happening with our reading, guys? Philadelphia's 10 up on us now. How's everyone going?

[[deleted user]]

Maddison, I'll start November 9 tonight as I have "nothing" to read 'til the 19th.

[Maddie]

Okay. I may also start it tonight, but we'll just see. If not tonight then tomorrow :)

[Maddie]

If I do start it tonight, then I probably won't be able to update because I won't be on my computer. I'm at my boyfriend's for the night.

[[deleted user]]

It's okay :)

[Maddie]

Alrighty :) At least I know if I start it tonight I'll hopefully get a lot read. If not, I'll try and finish it tomorrow anyway. We gotta catch back up to Philadelphia.

[[deleted user]]

I hope we do! Posted and reviews today. I expect to be a one day read as well :p

[Maddie]

Alrighty :) I'll be finishing and hopefully tomorrow, giving us another 3 points. But my next read will take me a bit longer while also being more points (4 because I'm BRing it and there's an edition worth more than 450 pages).

[Maddie]

Adding a review :)

Yes I am

[Heather]

I'm doing readathons the next two weeks so I should be able to push a good many reviews out!

[Irena BookDustMagic]

I am in "reviewing slump".
sorry guys, I hope it will pass in a few days, but I still read so that's a good thing.

[Maddie]

They're now 5 points ahead. Thanks Ashwag for reading those big books, and for finishing November 9 so fast Tayane! I should hopefully read a little more of it tonight once I've watched my show. I'm really tired though so I'll see how I go.

[Maddie]

And yeah, that's a good thing Irena :)

[Heather]

I'm almost done with The Wrath and The Dawn! Hoping to finish it today but, I have work!

[Heather]

Anyone else planning to read all day?

[Irena BookDustMagic]

I planned but my sister is coming over so I'll be able to read only in the evening. :(

[Heather]

That's fine!

[[deleted user]]

I have a lot of things to do during the day, so I'll probably start my book only at night XD

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Just posted one review.

[ɑƨħŵɑɡ ♥Team Magnus Damora FOREVER♥]

I am almost finished with the Visitor.. Will start The Wrath and the Dawn & Never Fade tonight

[Heather]

I'm trying my best to hurry through TWATD

[Katrina G]

I'm not going to school today, so all I'll be doing is reading today. I'm hoping to knock a few hundred pages out of Game of Thrones, and then I have some buddy reads starting tomorrow

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Guys, I know this is pretty late, but would anyone like to read with me this month?

Itmwould be reread for me (I need to read it because thelast book in the series is coming out in May) and it is pretty quick to read, even though it has over 450 pages.

If we do a buddy read, we could earn out team 4 points per member.

[Katrina G]

I just got a review posted that will get us 4 points :). I believe this has us caught up completely to Philadelphia

[Irena BookDustMagic]

That is awesome, Katrina!

Guys, keep up with good work!
Everyone's doing great! :)

I know I'll be reading all evening until I fall asleep.

[Katrina G]

Same here Irena :)

[Katrina G]

I actually started another buddy read. I didn't realize Matched had one going, so I jumped in there since I have it on my shelf. So that will be another 4 points when I finish it

[[deleted user]]

All the books I plan to read 'til the end of the month have BRs, so I can guarantee at least 2 points for each book from now on :) I'm starting tonight.

Good job, everyone!

[Katrina G]

That's great Tayane

[Maddie]

Yes! We're at 112 and Philadelphia's at 111! Thanks to the three 450+ buddy reads!

[Irena BookDustMagic]

That is great!
Now we just have to keep up and keep going! :)

[Maddie]

Indeed we do! I'm finishing November 9 tomorrow probably, which'll give us 2 more points, and starting The Assassin's Blade, which is over 450 pages and a BR.

[Irena BookDustMagic]

I hope I'll finish The Winner's Crime today (2 points) plus I still have to review The Winner's Curse (2 points) and Truth or Date (1point).

[Maddie]

Awesome! How come you can't review straight after you read? If I didn't I wouldn't remember haha.

[Irena BookDustMagic]

I always have to have at least one night to clear my mind about book, think about everything I have to say about the book and then I write such a long review that ppl probably don't even want to read it, but I am reviewing for my blog too and I try to calculate if the book would do fine i my Country so I could suggest it for translation...

Long story short, I can't help myself but have to write everything and it always turn out to be long, and it usually takes me an hour to write my review, that's why I usually lack when it comes to reviewing on time...

[Maddie]

Oh woah. I honestly couldn't care less about reviews. I only do them for challenges.

[Heather]

No school or work today so I am definitely going to try my best to read all day! I have about 100 pages left of TWATD and then I will start my super quick reads to get our points up!

[Maddie]

Awesome! :D They're 1 point ahead now, and I'll give us another 3 points tomorrow because I'm finishing November 9 and starting and finished another book.

[Heather]

I will probably either start Ugly Love or The Knife of Never Letting Go!
