[Irena BookDustMagic]

Hi guys, just wanted to let you know I'm here! :)

[Maddie]

I'm here too :D
I plan on reading (over 4.0 average)
(over 4.0)
(title starting with I)
(doesn't count)
(MP romance, so does this count?)
(above 4.0)
(above 4.0 and crown (jewellery) on cover)
(doesn't count)

Thank gosh for that above 4.0 category!

[Maddie]

Also not sure how much of those I'll actually get read next month because I'm moving into a flat for university, so I'll need to actually move all of my stuff down there.

(Sorry to jump in your thread)

Maddison The Calling does count because it starts with a T. You can count 'The' in the VALENTI. ^-^

[Maddie]

Oh thank Bookbuyer! XD Did you just happen to check in this thread?

I snoop on all the threads so I saw your comment. :)

[Katrina G]

I'm here! I'm excited to start this challenge! :)

[Katrina G]

Hey Maddison, I checked to see if there was a way for to count and I found this edition that starts the title with "The 100". https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

You may want to check with Sarah first, but I think if you use that edition it should count since it starts with the letter T

[Beatrice]

We're all in! :)

[Maddie]

Oh awesome! It's just that that's the series name haha. I'll give a check thanks!

[Katrina G]

Maddison wrote: "Oh awesome! It's just that that's the series name haha. I'll give a check thanks!"

That's why I thought it best to check with Sarah, because I wasn't sure if they would take the series name lol. I'm glad she cleared it though :)

[Maddie]

Yeah it's awesome :)

[Beatrice]

Just started two books for Feb :)

[Maddie]

Awesome :) I'm debating whether jumping into , as it's short and will start me off with points for a few of the February challenges, or if I just dive into . It's quite a big book though, and I'd like points XD So thinking about that one. Either way, I don't want to read any more tonight because UNO challenge starts then, and books started before then don't count XD

[Irena BookDustMagic]

@Maddison what is that UNO challenge? Is that in some other group?

I started one book for this challenge.
I also have buddy read for but I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive.

[Maddie]

uno is in another group yeah xD

ah Coolio. I've got quite a few reads this month but probably won't read many

[Maddie]

I'm moving to another city for uni, moving into a unit with my boyfriend, so we've got to get all of our stuff moved down there and settled in, and gotta set up power and all of that crazy adult stuff XD Going to be so weird not living with parents anymore.

(buddy read in early February)
(buddy read from 11th on)
(buddy read on 2nd (I think))
- I don't have a buddy read, but I have to finish it before 23rd
I don't have a buddy read, but I have to finish it before 17th
I don't have buddy read, and I plan to start it after 20th
- I don't have buddy read (I'm looking for buddy) and I plan to read it any time during February.

Hi Cinthia, you're currently reading Linger, if I understood correctly.
Or you're reading both Freeks and Linger?

In any case, there are buddy reads scheduled for both books. This is the thread for
https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
I don't think has a thread yet, but I know that the series readalong starts February 11th, so you can join us then, but if it's too far away for you, I complitely understand.

[Maddie]

Oh wow there's a series readalong for the Shiver series?! I'm actually about to start Linger in a few days! I finished Shiver yesterday. I've got a thread for it here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... but I'll try and hold off on Linger until then. Hhhmmm now I might have to shuffle some challenges' around.

[Maddie]

I'll be starting Linger on the 11th though, not Shiver. If I posted my updates on there for Linger, will everyone get really confused?

I don't think they will. You just make sure to write your update is for Linger and everything should be fine!
I'll participate in that buddy read too. :)

[Maddie]

Awesome :D Actually is there any point in joining the big buddy read when Coreen and I have our own? We're still all getting points for it XD

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Maddison wrote: "Awesome :D Actually is there any point in joining the big buddy read when Coreen and I have our own? We're still all getting points for it XD"

If you have your own, then it doesn't matter, as long as it counts as buddy read. :)

[Maddie]

Haha yeah I just realised. We'd all be counting it as a br anyway so we'd get the points XD

[Maddie]

Okay so I planned on only getting 4 points out of Origins, as it's 237 pages and a buddy, but I found an edition with 608 pages XD Not sure if it'll count, but it's not an ebook format, so I could even get 12 out of it!

[Ariel]

So with the editions we just post the link to the highest page count, right? Even if it's in a different language?

[Maddie]

Sure do :D Just as long as it isn't an ebook edition.

[Irena BookDustMagic]

That's amazing, Maddison! I hope it will work! ;)
I'll finish my first book today. I have less then 100 pg left, only it's not buddy read, so will get us 3 points.

[Maddie]

It worked :D 12 points for us!

Oh well :D We'll try stay on top haha. I'll get a little more read tomorrow. I'm 12% through City of Ashes, so that should give us at least another 10 points as it's a br too and there should be lots of big editions :D

[Katrina G]

Maddison wrote: "Sure do :D Just as long as it isn't an ebook edition."

Ebook editions count just the same as hard copies. It's ibooks that won't count for points :)

[Katrina G]

I have a final I have to take today, so I haven't really been able to read anything yet since I've been focusing on studying. But as soon as I get home, I'll jump in to the books I have planned :)

[Irena BookDustMagic]

That's okay Katrina. Good luck in your study! :)

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Good news: I found the version for book I finished with 512 pages, so we'll get 5 instead of 3 points! :D

[Maddie]

Oh sweet! :D It's such a good feeling being able to count a book for more points than the pages you read XD Like getting those 12 points where I thought I was only getting 4 :p

[Maddie]

We're still top of the leaderboard with our 20 points. Great work team :D I think the next group has 7. I'm secretly monitoring their review threads so I can see :p

[Irena BookDustMagic]

Me too! :P But that other group has some fast readers, so we have to keep up bc they can catch us pretty fast .

[Maddie]

Like Bookbuyer :p That's one thing that's frustrating, because they read fast but they're still allowed in medium groups. But I believe we can keep up!

[Ariel]

I'm not the fastest reader and sometimes I get swamped with grading BUT I have a good amount of Buddy reads that will hopefully help me pull my own weight!

[Maddie]

Same haha.

[Katrina G]

I'm a super fast reader! On days that I don't have to worry about school, work, or studying, I can knock out about 3 books and start on a fourth. I just always sign up for medium teams in case I'm feeling slumpy at any time. I should have a couple reviews ready to go by Saturday or Sunday at the latest

[Maddie]

awesome!!

Ariels read a book now too so we've got 4 people already read a book :)
