I've already started planning for this. I'm sooooooooo excited! :D
getting super excited about the MMC because August is my birthday month!

Thought I'd be nice to try gifs again since the chat thread from last year is where I learned how to use them. ^-^
Heather wrote: "Thanks! My birthday is August 6th"Less than a month away then. :)
SO excited for these challenges! The Harry Potter blocks one looks super fun (:
Book buyer have you planned any buddy reads yet?
I got a question: do we post all of our reviews in the same threads?
Heather wrote: "Book buyer have you planned any buddy reads yet?"Not yet. I think I might take a break next month as I've been really bad at keeping my BRs for the last few months. :(
Carolyn wrote: "I got a question: do we post all of our reviews in the same threads?"No there will be individual review threads for each challenge.
I'm surprised there isn't a nonreading challenge this year!
Andrea wrote: "I'm surprised there isn't a nonreading challenge this year!"Sarah explained in one of the threads (Can't remember which one now) that she was too busy to do that one this year. :)
I'm going to miss it though. I was making note of 'weird'/'unusual' covers for it. :(
Do I need to make my own review threads?
No. There will be one review thread for everyone for each challenge. The threads just haven't been made yet. :)
I was relieved by the fact that there won't be a non-reading challenge this year. I don't think I have the mental strength for it anymore LOL
Hey everyone! Extremely excited to do another MMC. August is my birthday month. So I have things to do while I wait to turn 24. Haha.
Not sure how much reading I'll actually get done, but I'm excited to plan out some books for this. :)
@Tati; the one last year borderline ruined my life, I was constantly on my phone looking for stuff and I think I just gave up after a while lol
@Connie, I know! I was exactly the same!During meetings I'd be looking for covers rather than paying attention to what was going on

This is how I feel every month now.Look at all these books to read!
O.o There are too many books I need to read!!
Why can't I find a book to read!
Carolyn wrote: "What was the non-reading challenge?"Each day we'd have a different task.
It could be cover pieces, and then we'd have to find the book the cover piece belonged to. Or it could be an item on the cover (any book with a ladder on the cover, for instance). Or we'd have to find the book based on a few clues.
Whoa. I'm glad we are not doing that this year!
Carolyn wrote: "Whoa. I'm glad we are not doing that this year!"It was crazy! Some of them were really, really, really, hard to find
anyone want to pick some to read books off my shelf to do buddy reads with?

That's for sure, but it was also super fun!

Me every time I go to my library haha.
@Heather; there's a lot of books on your Want to Read shelf that I could easily get access too! I think I counted 12 or so! I'll make a little list and get back to you!
This has made me pretty excited to get back to reading, I've made a list in my journal of all my owned physical books to read and I think I could get through a lot of them next month!
Finished my planning for the Harry Potter challenge and I'm almost done with the Reading Bee. Next I just have to wait to see if I can get a copy of all the GBR books. I own at least one of them so I'm happy about that. :)
Making a plan of the books to read for the challenges makes sense! I should totally do that
I did it the other way started with the reading bee and then went to bookish blocks.

Yeah you can go across, up/down or diagonal. And yeah I believe the mods will add all the points on the review thread

at least I don't have to keep track of how close I am haha
Anyone know of a short book (under 200 pages) that would work for Moaning Myrtle - Read a book which features ghosts OR Read a book in which a teenager dies. ??

Thanks for the recommendations. Will check them all out. :D
Thanks, Sarah and Bookbuyer. I'm between Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #1) by J.L. Bryan and Haunting Joy (Book 1) by Lena Goldfinch. So appreciate the help. I was seriously stuck with that category. :/

I've done some of my planning, but I want to finish as many of my own physical books before I start trying to get books from the library/on kindle etc so it's taking a bit longer :( what book are you all starting with?
