I think reserved is for the MOD so that he/she can edit the message later to include some important message.

this is your tbr link: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
Hopefully I'll be able to read this time! This is the link to my shelf: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
https://www.goodreads.com/review/list... It would be better if my partner would rather choose the book(s) from this list, instead of the one I posted previously. I have filtered out the books that I really, really want to read.
Suyash wrote: "https://www.goodreads.com/review/list... It would be better if my partner would rather choose the book(s) from this list, instead of the one I posted prev..."Yeah, many ppl have just given the link to their default to-read shelf which actually has too many books :)
Selvakumar wrote: "Suyash wrote: "https://www.goodreads.com/review/list... It would be better if my partner would rather choose the book(s) from this list, instead of the on..."I read somewhere that we should always keep our TBR list short and concise. As we keep on adding new books on a whim in the list and then wonder why did we even chose that book in the start. I can't bear being asked to read a book which I have no immediate plan to read. I think it will be better for everyone if they just keep the list to a manageable number somewhere between 10-20 and then keep on updating it as and when they finish reading them.
hey you guys already planning for August. I am yet to finish my July pick. It almost over. No problem will join as soon as I finish To Kill A Mocking Bird. :-)
my july pick was day of the jackal and have finished it half. Liking the book. It is nice way to get suggestion upon choosing the next read.

I am in and in this month I read The thousand splendid sun, the hypnotist, The games of throne book 1 and currently reading The clash of kings and hope will finish it this month only.
yess manju! thanks a ton!!! I still dunno hw u did tht :-D
I really hope this challenge wud pep me up to increase my reading speed and help me read more!

Richa, you have to post a link to the book shelf containing the books you would like to read, ideally around 20-50 books, from where your partner will pick one for you.
Ok, I'm in. Have narrowed down my 191 owned-but-not-read list to https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
wow lenny 191 owned and yet to be read!
Deepthi wrote: "wow lenny 191 owned and yet to be read!"I know, I know, I have a problem. Hi my name is Lenny and I'm a biblioholic. But considering my 'owned' total is over 500, that's not *too* bad, right? RIGHT?

So this is where interested members of IR sign up for this challenge with their to-be-read shelf link. We'll randomly pair them with other members. Then one partner will choose a book for his/her partner from their (whatever to-read shelf link the other member has given) shelf and vice versa.
Once you choose a book for your partner you have to come here and inform about the chosen book. You have to also come here once you finish the book so that we know you have completed the challenge.
Please set your profile to public to take part in this challenge.
