I don't have any spaces at the moment, but I could add you as a solo player and then move you if a spot becomes available?

If the buddy read was scheduled for July then we wouldn't be able to count it for the september challenge, you'd have to set up a new buddy read ☺

Emily wrote: "Will plays count toward this challenge? I'm in a class all about Shakespeare and will probably read at least 4 of his plays during September."

Yes, they count for 1/3 of the pages as they tend to have a reduced word count ☺

Just a quick question, since I've never done challenges before: How do you enter reviews to show what you've read? Do you like the review here or do the people in charge of the group just follow everyone who enters to see their reviews?

Okay, thank you!


These Violent Delights (Robin) | 779 comments I'm not sure if I can still join or not, but if I can I'd love to join this challenge. If I am able to join, I'm okay with joining any team (except any Serious teams cause I know I am not going to read that much).

Jamie | 12271 comments For novellas under 50 pages: If we read more than one and can total them up to 50 pages or more and review them each, can we count them?

Example if I read the novella's: The Tailor (The Grisha, #1.5) by Leigh Bardugo which is 20 pages & Little Knife (The Grisha, #2.6) by Leigh Bardugo at 32 pages and review each one but can total them to over 50 pages, can they count?

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) Team Basil is on fire!! 😍🙌🏼🔥


message 287: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Also I have to say in regards to team Basil every team member had posted a review by the second of the month, I don't believe I've ever had a team in the two years plus that I've been doing these challenges do that, so obviously we have some really strong readers, but it is so key to have full team participation!

Took the words right out of my mouth. Participation is definitely the key to a good team. :)

@Sarah, sorry I am so late responding to this! We are away for the weekend, but I am reading! I would prefer not to do this solo, but no worries if there isn't a team to stick me on. I was late to the ballgame and will just sign up early for next month! :)

However if someone needs a teammate, let me know.
