Hey guys! Checking in!

Here is my idea for going about this...

I feel like all BRs planned should either be claimed ahead, since they're worth more points, or we could choose to only allow the claiming of 2-3 categories at a time, so categories aren't claimed and then never filled.

I'm also creating a spreadsheet now! (Link is now in original post!)

[Eesh]

Checking in!
And I'm with the 2-3 categories at a time plan.

[Meaghan]

I'm actually leaning towards that too, since sometimes BRs fall through too

[Eesh]

Yeah. Like I just skipped the Crimson Bound BR because I have two other books I'm currently reading.

[Meaghan]

Haha exactly! I skipped 1 or 2 this month because I was busy with other books too.

We'll just wait for the others to check in, and then we can discuss who's claiming what first.

[Eesh]

That works! I actually have exams for the first half of the month so I'm going to be reading light stuff for the time. Meaning no schedules. I can read any category as long as there's a fun book for it.

[Meaghan]

Oh that's awesome!

I'll probably be the same way due to exams, but I do have 3 BRs planned from the 1st to the 12th so far. 12th-end of the month will be chock full because I'll have graduated, and will have tons of time on my hands

[Eesh]

I often join read that have already been planned. So I'll mostly be doing that next month.

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm checking in! I'm about to go through my TBR list and see if I can find a book for each category. Although, I'm pretty sure that I won't find one for the future. I probably won't find one for horror either. That's not a genre I like to read.

[Meaghan]

I've probably got something for the future/past one, but I'm not a horror fan either. I'll read something if absolutely necessary (for more completions of that part), but I'd rather not xD

[Eesh]

My first read is one that has bullying.

[Meaghan]

Want me to put you down for that in the spreadsheet already then?

And I'll claim one for ACOWAR as well, since that's for sure happening

[Meaghan]

(I'm claiming a Sarah one for that, for Sarah J Maas)

[Eesh]

Also, The Dark Prophecy is next which has something that flies, on the cover.

[Eesh]

Yeah, you can mark those two down.

[Eesh]

Bullying book is

[Meaghan]

Awesome! And I'll mark down for dark prophecy too, since I'm joining that

[Meaghan]

Actually putting my dark prophecy for character name that starts with A (Apollo)

[Rebecca]

Hi Guys, I'm checking in :) I've read with some of you before so that's nice. I just need to reread the rules but to be honest I just read whatever I feel like at the time. I will try to fit into any categories I can

[Meaghan]

Sounds great Rebecca! There's a spreadsheet, linked above, so if you start reading a book you can claim a category there, or claim a category for a book you'll soon read! (Just try to claim no more than 3 categories)

[Rebecca]

that's fine :) I'm probably be one of those who starts something then claim it at the last minute once I'm already 1/4 of the way through

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

These are the only ones I don't have books for:

Bullying
Set in future (2041)
House in title
Horror story
Published in 1995
Someone goes missing

[Eesh]

That means everyone else will have to do those categories, since one person can only completed a description once.

[Meaghan]

I have house for sure, a short play that can be used actually.

I can try for horror, but it'll be a tough one

[Eesh]

I can probably find something for all the categories (not that I'll be able to do all of them), but I refuse to make plans for next month. Need to focus on education.

[Meaghan]

I just realized that I plan to read the game of thrones series over the summer, and the first book is 835 pages. I could probably take on the first book on May then, and get that category down with one book :)

[Meaghan]

Turns out I have a YA horror book (tagged by 150ish people), so I should be able to do that category! (it's also a super short book, which is great for the challenge)

[[deleted user]]

Hi guys! Checking in. You guys have been busy. I'll have to check what I can read. I am like Quirks though I usually join already made BRs. How many people can read the same category?

[Meaghan]

4! :)

[Eesh]

Yeah, and one person is only allowed one book per category.

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

Since we get 10 points bonus for each part we complete. Did we just want to pick a part to start with and have us work on that first?

[Eesh]

Part 1 first?

[Meaghan]

That works! And then if anyone has BRs that falls out of that they can just put those for other parts technically

[Eesh]

The release date for the book I was going to read about bullying got pushed back (again) so I'm reading To Kill a Mockingbird instead, which also fits, I think.

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

Do you want to make the spreadsheet accessible to us? That way I can get on and claim what I need.

[Meaghan]

Ah sorry!! I thought it was! I'll comment another link here, and update the original post once my power is back

[Meaghan]

Okay I changed the link settings to edit, so it should work already

[Eesh]

Change of plans. My first read is one with trees on the cover.

[Meaghan]

@Quirks You should be able to change that in the spreadsheet, right? :)

[Eesh]

Yup

[[deleted user]]

3 more hours....

[[deleted user]]

working out my plan right now

[Rebecca]

I'm fitting the ones I'm starting today on the spreadsheet as much as I can :)

[[deleted user]]

Just finished , will update spread sheet and will start with . I will post on review thread.

[[deleted user]]

I'm almost done with The Maze Runner but don't know where to put it in Part 1. I will have to put it in the 800 pages one along with Divergent when I get to it.

[Eesh]

The movie tie-in cover has earth on it. You could put it in that category.

[[deleted user]]

Awesome. Cool will do that.

[Meaghan]

Starting ACOWAR today, will try and fit it the best way I can that doesn't start doubling up categories yet :) will then fit in a few quick stories and plays to try and get categories as well
