Oh you got it, Abbie! ;=)

[Ghost in the Stacks]

Perfect!

Now why did they not put you on my team again?????

*sigh*

[Diane Woods]

Okay now I can't decide. Whatever will I do?

[Denise]

Hello!
First - thank you to the mods who organize this and the folks who captain... you're all amazing..

This will be my 2nd challenge... and I'm looking forward to learning and reading and meeting new people.

The team I was on last year was so much fun and I found so many new things to read and love!

[Apoorv]

OKAY! I have a very important question!
Are there any other boys here?

*There better not be or else you will have to tussle with me for attention-rights* :P ;=)

I'm not positive, but just going by names I've seen so far, you may be our resident male!

Who is this? He is gorgeous.

I just discovered this challenge (and this group) by seeing a post from the team leader of a past challenge from another board on one of my infrequent trips to my Home page. Too bad I didn't see it a couple of days earlier.

I loved being on a team for the other challenge, and here's hoping I can get a chance to join in here.

Tina and Caly - if you want to go ahead and reserve posts in your team thread and then we will announce teams. Rachel may just be away for the weekend of something?

Idris Elba :-)

[VNerdbooks]

Yummmmmmm

[Eldarwen]

Also, Apoorv, keep those Ryan Gosling pics coming! Karen loves them ;-)

[Annika]

You're not trying to bribe the mod are you ;)

[VNerdbooks]

haha Apoorv is good at that!!!

[Karen ⊰✿, Avaricious Reader]

Haha E
I found that very distracting on the train earlier!!

[Eldarwen]

Hehe :-))

Annika, I would never bribe... ;-) I just... enchant people *grin*

[Apoorv]

*wipes drool*
I am sorry, you were saying? ;=)

[Sophie]

That's woken me up nicely this morning!

[Karen ⊰✿, Avaricious Reader]

Sigh ;)

Has anyone seen La La Land? I loved it so much

[Eldarwen]

Hmmm.... no, that name doesn't ring a bell.

EDA: Oh, went to IMDB. I like the Ryan Gosling / Emma Stone combination. I might have to try and get my hands on the movie.

[Annika]

I haven't heard about it either

*goes off to check imdb*

Ryan Gosling is <3 <3 <3

I've been meaning to see it but gahhh time!

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

Karen will he be shirtless in La La Land? Haha

No :(
And he actually looks quite different! He has lost the baby face.

Fantastic movie, Emma Stone is great too

[Eldarwen]

Have you ever seen "Stay"?
It's an older movie already and definitely a weird one, but not bad!

No, but looks like a good cast!

That one is Mike Colter, he plays Luke Cage on Netflix. You is a superhero in Harlem that is bulletproof.

Lol Idris is the second one. The one Apoov posted. Mine was Mike Colter

[Eldarwen]

Oops - I was wondering, but figured they looked, well not the same then, but very similar ;-)

[Ghost in the Stacks]

Apoorv, my captain is male...at least I assume with a name like Jose, he is a he.

We have a man (Chris) on our team as well, so you are not alone surrounded with a harem of women. (Sorry) ;)

Though we are awesome you do need to share

[Nanci]

So excited to see who is on my team! How do we find our team thread. I'm on the app.

There's a spreadsheet where you can find what team you are on, you can find it here

And since you are on the app (which is beyond sucking) the link probably won't work, but you are on team Eve Dallas.

[Anna]

I am team Europe I think where do I go to sign in?

Anna wrote: "I am team Europe I think where do I go to sign in?"

You are on team Mercy Thompson and you can find the team here

The first time I saw him, he was playing Angela's ex husband in Bones I think.

[Eldarwen]

Ooooooh, that was him?!

(I could have gone to IMDB, but.. )

[Kirby]

I just learned of this challenge. Crossing my fingers there's room for me on a team! It sounds so fun!!

Eldarwen wrote: "Ooooooh, that was him?!

I think. I'd have to go back and look, but I'm pretty sure. We can still chat here even though we have teams now right?

[Ghost in the Stacks]

I would think so, since we all are not on the same teams.

oh Karen I definitely wanna see La La Land soon! especially since it is doing so well in this award season, and I have this thing where I wanna watch all the movies nominated in the 'main' categories before the Oscars are being held! *hides*

Jose and Chris, you better be cool (and nooo, I am not going to go and stalk you guys! (Said no one ever) :P) or else I am going to hog all the attention of these awesome ladies! :P LOL!

[Christina]

btw, I'm finally going to watch La La Land tomorrow evening ;)
