message 201: by Sophie (new)

Sophie Katrani (sophiekatrani) | 228 comments Also, all the descriptions are taken for game 1. I will find some more mostly for part 3 because that one is almost complete for game 1.
I will update the spreadsheet.


message 202: by Sophie (new)

Sophie Katrani (sophiekatrani) | 228 comments I am not sure what I should read next. Let me know if you would like me to read a description. Or if you are not sure you will manage to complete a description...


message 203: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments You can take any description from me if you need to. I plan on reading the BR and car book next though.

If you have a missing book that would be great because I don't feel like reading a mystery book right now so I probably won't start it for a little while.


message 204: by Sophie (new)

Sophie Katrani (sophiekatrani) | 228 comments That's cool thanks Adriana. I will read Paper towns for missing if that's OK. I will put it in the spreadsheet later because I'm on my phone.


message 205: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Yes, of course that's okay!

Oh awesome Sophie!
Yeah definitely was nothing like The Selection. Pleased it isn't a series so I don't have to read another one.

I'll get 8 points from The Jewel today. We are all so close in points, guys! I really feel like we're being let down with Kim and Aly :/ I'll send Sarah a message now and let her know what's happening.

This is what I said:

Our only active players this month are Adriana, Sophie and myself. We are the only three who have posted reviews, and I don't believe it's very fair. We are all extremely close with points, around 35 each, but it's a little off-putting knowing we only have 3 participants when we're supposed to have 5. Is this common with other teams too? We are missing Aly and Kim.

Adriana | 3733 comments Sarah mentioned that Kim left a message that she'll be traveling until the 19th which you can see on her first message. I didn't see it until later. I hope she's read some...

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Oh right whoops.


message 211: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Just finished The Jewel.


message 212: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
I'm starting King's Cage with 35 pages a day so I can get it finished this month, so adding that to spreadsheet.


message 213: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Also putting The Wide Window for orphan which I'll read this week.


message 214: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Chucked King's Cage up as bullying.


message 215: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
So I won't be finishing The Name of the Wind this month because I haven't even got it yet and it's like 600 pages. So I'm opening up 'trees on cover'.


message 216: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Sigh... I feel like we are never going to complete a part. It's just too many descriptions for us three.

This week I plan on reading my BR read, car, and earth book. If I have time I'll get started with the food book. I know two of them are in the second round but I really want to read that series :/


message 217: by Sophie (new)

Sophie Katrani (sophiekatrani) | 228 comments Yeah I feel the same way...
sorry but I could not get any reading done today... I have finals and so not much free time...hope to start Paper towns tomorrow.


message 218: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments No problem, good luck on your finals Sophie (:


message 219: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Yeah good luck! You're reading heaps considering you've got study as well!

Sarah replied and said that Kim will post her reviews when she gets back from holiday and that Aly should post some soon. Not sure though.


message 220: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Not sure either.

I just finished the BR read. I plan on finishing the car book on Wednesday.


message 221: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Awesome. Was that the largest edition of the book? 4 more pages would have gotten us 10 points rather than 8 XD


message 222: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments I know! But it was.


message 223: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Bummer XD


message 224: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Finished the car read. Onto earth on the cover.


message 225: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Good work! I'm finishing my first BR book today. Then I'll start on The Accusation which I'll finish tomorrow, and then get to The Wide Window.


message 226: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
So I've swapped some stuff around so that my next read will still count.

I just finished off my first BR book (Gemina).
Initially I had the tasks:
Orphan (Wide Window)
Bullying (King's Cage)
BR 2 (Leviathan)

But I swapped them to:
Orphan (King's Cage)
Bullying (The Accusation)
BR2 (Wide Window)


message 227: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Okay, cool (:


message 228: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments I'm surprised I've kept up with reading this month. Usually towards this half I slow down or stop. Not going crazy over everything has helped XD


message 229: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Haha yeah I'm surprised with my reading too! I haven't slumped yet and don't plan to XD

I plan on finishing The Accusation (2 points) and Wide Window (4 points) today/tomorrow.


message 230: by Sophie (new)

Sophie Katrani (sophiekatrani) | 228 comments Hey! Sorry for being out these last days. I had to study a lot. Just posted my review for Paper Towns by John Green As we have almost completed part 3 I am going to read a fantasy book so we get the 10 points for that.


message 231: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Awesome, great job Sophie!


message 232: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Awesome :D I just finished off The Accusation, but only get 2 points for it as it wasn't a buddy :/


message 233: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
Hi guys, just to let you know that Kim has officially pulled out of the challenge.


message 234: by Adriana (last edited May 19, 2017 11:22AM) (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Okay, thought so. What about Aly?


message 235: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90956 comments Mod
Aly hasn't said anything since she last said that she was still taking part.


message 236: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Alright, just curious since I haven't seen her around in a week.


message 237: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments I took off two of my books from the spreadsheet. I can only see me reading four more books although Alienated is still up in the air. I do plan on finishing A Long Way Home, Get it Together, Delilah!, and A Darker Shade of Magic.


message 238: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Awesome :) No idea how many more I'll read. Definitely at least another 3 or 4.


message 239: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Bummer about Kim :/ Wish she'd pulled out before we were assigned teams.


message 240: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Just found the craziest edition of Wide Window... 2001 pages :p But it says it was published in 192, so I suppose they got the date and the pages mixed up. Seeing if it'll count anyway XD


message 241: by Adriana (new)

Adriana | 3733 comments Whoa, awesome. I'll finish A Long Way Home tomorrow.


message 242: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Cool, I'm hoping to start A Dangerous Path today and finish that off tomorrow, but not too sure. I've been reading so much lately.


message 243: by ❤ Aly ❤ (new)

❤ Aly ❤ | 3575 comments I'm still participating. I'm done for the summer so I can read more.


message 244: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Wow look who it is! Have you read anything yet this month Aly?


message 245: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Going to read 2 novellas, and then get into A Dangerous Path. The novellas will count as they're 100 and 75 pages, I think.


message 246: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Just chucked up a 100pg novella as initials (Garnet's Story so counts got Adriana's initial) and now trying to find a slot for The House of the Stone.


message 247: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Hopefully flying as there's a bird on the cover.


message 248: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Sweet it counts, just checked the description :)


message 249: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
All these little points I'm getting XD


message 250: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53701 comments Mod
Oh no Adriana! I can't count Garnet's Story as your initials because you don't have your last name on GR or something? Abbie said it doesn't count :/ So I counted it as 'a character/author starting with A'.
