[Tessa]

A few questions:

Can either of these 2 books be considered a summer read:
?

For DNF titles (this is a little subjective).
A lot of my friends DNF , yet I still want to give this one a try. Can it be used for the DNF list?

For the element on cover, is either of this titles ok: and (element: air)

Thank you! :)

[Trixie]

Im in!

[Abi]

Tessa - Wildlife is fine for summer read.
Sterling and night road count for element, and the scent of rain and lightening could count for that too.
I'll allow Prisoner of night and fog, since a lot of my GR friends have marked it as DNF too.

[Tessa]

Thank you Abbie :) .

[Marga]

Err, I did not sign up for the Hangman Challenge so does that mean I will not be able to cross that box out? Thanks >o<

[Hanna]

does this work for elemental?

In that case, you can read something from my shelf instead. :)

That's fine. :)

Can we use one book for more than one bookish block?

[Abi]

No, you can only cross off one block per book.

Ok

[It’s.Annie]

abbie what do we do if our partner is taking hours to message us back

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Usually we give people at least 24 hours, then we'll start looking at who doesn't seem to be participating. We've done the teams early this time so that we hopefully can sort out any issues before the challenge starts.
You're on the bookish blocks thread at the moment though, not the hangman ;)

[Hannelore]

Do you mean by a book on your hangman's patners shelf just any book they've ever listed, no matter if its a TBR or already read or...?

[Abi]

Yes, any book they've added. :)

[Noella]

Can I use a book for Be brave which is shelved "did-not-finish" rather than "DNF"

Would (the diviners: https://www.goodreads.com/work/shelve...) qualify with 26 people shelving it "did-not-finish"?

[Katelyn]

Oh this is also a pairs challenge?

[dragon]

(I'd like to join if we can count any book)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

The books posted in the first post are only for the 'Mods Favourite' square, you can read any books which fit the criteria for the other squares ☺

[Mei]

If your not in the clean your shelf challenge do you pick a book of someones shelf who is?

[Kate]

Hello. Can you please suggest some YA books that starts with my initial? :( I found only one and I can't even find a copy of the book :(

- Really good series! Not sure if you can get the first on it's own, but if you had the series you could just read the first one and submit .

If you've read a few Pretty little liars books -


If you've read a few morganville books -

- Think these can be read on their own.



- Second in series.

I'll try and find a few more for you. :)

It doesn't matter if you're in the challenge. If you see a book on the "clean your shelves - bookshelves" thread, you can read/buddy read it and submit it.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

'K' books -

[Presiana]

For the 'New Release'.. I can't find a book which is published in the last 4 weeks because all books in my country need time to be translated. For example I'm still waiting for CoHF, which I'll probably buy tomorrow... so I don't know how to find a book which fits in this category...
And is there a way I could receive an ARC from somewhere except netgallery/edelweiss?

[Life is wasted on the living [Elena]]

I'm not sure about the new releases, but I know that a lot of new authors give away free e-book copies of their books for people on Goodreads to read and review, so you could try that :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

You could try Smashwords Presiana, they often have new releases for free if you don't mind self-published books? What sort of genres do you like?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

They have a re-release of that you could use - https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...
