Virginie | 6109 comments @Margret: Since you will be taking the BRs directly from the spreadsheet, I added a feature to help you.
There's a little checkbox right after the BR link. If you check it, the entire row turns blue. You can use it to see which BR you have added to the list, and which you haven't yet.

Also changed the COPY TO MASTER LIST column. You can now directly copy-paste it in the right place, no need to remove spaces or anything. You just need to remove the " that pops up.

For example, copying the cell for the Little Fires Everywhere BR will give you:

"5/7 Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng

Hailee | 2762 comments I also posted the comment below in the "Directions to get Buddy Reads Added" thread as well but thought it might be a good idea to post it here as well since it'll affects the schedule posted in this thread as well:

I saw that. There's really no harm in it but it does seem kinda silly

Deliberately is a strong word... it was a mistake, I think... but it's a fact now...

What happened, was a new release buddy read was scheduled last year for September 10th, in the new release folder... at the same time, BRs for the first 2 books were scheduled for July and August 10th in the Kristoff folder... then a couple months ago, someone noticed the BRs for the first 2 in the Kristoff folder and not Darkdawn, and requested a new BR for it on release day (September 3rd) not noticing the BR for the 10th in the New Release folder (or Scott did it all :)

Oh well... I finally started today, right in the middle of the 2 BRs, lol... which thread should I join?

Both threads are pretty quiet so far... Petrik started and idiffer almost finished... I'll be done by tomorrow and here I thought I was the late one...


message 16: by Zaara (new)

Zaara | 4273 comments To be strictly fair, I think @idiffer was just trying to look out for me bcuz I am dumb and easily confunded. Why just yesterday I mixed up Godgrave and Darkdawn...
Heh, and while I’m at it (before this happens again) may I just point the Modular Attention at what looks like two (not one but TWO) entire Licanius folders in the imperial ranks? Haha….did they clome themselves or something?
I’m sure someone else has probably already noticed this but just in case.
Shaitarn and I were yesterday invoking God Sanderson and discussing the very cool possibility that the Voidbrimgers are here bringing their dark mayhem…

This happened a few weeks ago, when I tried to get the delayed into 2019 threads turned into October/November/December threads...


message 18: by Mayim (new)

Mayim de Vries | 2948 comments Sorry for messing here in this thread but I have a quick question: is there a separate thread for September 2019? I cannot find it in the 'what is going on' cluster.

No, sorry I missed it as I was on vacation and had sporadic cell service

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments Will there be a new Master & Monthly posts? Those are part of the FBR life lines for me. =)

Thanks to everyone that has been keeping the Buddy Reads up to date! I appreciate it!
