Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Checking in :)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments Gotchu~

I was debating on also making a google excel sheet, but I'm not 100% sure it's necessary since September is going to be read whatever you want? What do you think?


message 4: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments I doubt we will need it for this challenge.


message 5: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments But it may help for buddy reads in house so if you feel like it why not :)


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments I'm checking in!


message 7: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments Gotchu Hannah!


message 8: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments I'll wait to make a google sheet until more people check in and put in their two scents.


message 9: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments City of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments, #2) by Cassandra Clare Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices, #1) by Cassandra Clare The Play Mate (Roommates, #2) by Kendall Ryan Chilled (Elemental Warriors, #1) by Ashley West A Promise of Fire (Kingmaker Chronicles #1) by Amanda Bouchet The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (Chronicles of Narnia, #1) by C.S. Lewis

I currently have these planned for sure so far in September from other groups and challenges.


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments It looks like if we want any chance of being competitive we need to have lots of BR's.


message 11: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments Maybe I will make a google sheet then, so we can keep track and compare what everyone wants to read.


message 12: by Trisha (new)

Trisha Hey everyone!!

I'm checking in. It's been a crazy day but I'll work to clean up my September shelf to make sure it's the books I plan to read and see if we can schedule some buddy reads :D


message 13: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

Here's the excel file guys.
Still doing some minor edits to the layout, but I think it'll help us join BRs and stuff.

Under the "Member Color Code" please pick what color you want to use. :)


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments I added my current BR's to the chart.


Anybody want to BR any of these with me?


Wanderlove by Kirsten Hubbard Solstice by P.J. Hoover Wanderlost by Jen Malone Love? Maybe by Heather Hepler The Language of Stars by Louise Hawes Even if the Sky Falls by Mia Garcia What Happens Now by Jennifer Castle Unrivaled (Beautiful Idols, #1) by Alyson Noel The Loose Ends List by Carrie Firestone You Know Me Well by Nina LaCour The Inside of Out by Jenn Marie Thorne A Week of Mondays by Jessica Brody For This Life Only by Stacey Kade All the Feels by Danika Stone Dreaming of Antigone by Robin Bridges Phantom Limbs by Paula Garner The Memory of Things by Gae Polisner Kiss Cam by Kiara London Under a Painted Sky by Stacey Lee Last Year's Mistake by Gina Ciocca Lola Carlyle's 12-Step Romance by Danielle Younge-Ullman North of Happy by Adi Alsaid Royce Rolls by Margaret Stohl The Odds of Lightning by Jocelyn Davies


message 15: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments @ Hannah - Most of those are not my type sadly. I looked through your list though and I'd be interested in these if you wanted to BR:

Born of Water (The Rise of the Fifth Order, #1) by Autumn M. Birt The Deal (Off-Campus, #1) by Elle Kennedy Descension (Mystic, #1) by B.C. Burgess Evensong (Meratis Trilogy #1) by Krista Walsh The Ghost and the Graveyard (Knight Games, #1) by Genevieve Jack

I sorted by Title and got that far in the list so far. xD I can keep looking if you don't want to BR any of those.


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments We should definitely do The Deal (Off-Campus, #1) by Elle Kennedy . I need to read that for another challenge in September.


message 17: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments Can do!
I'm open the 5th/6th or any days on/after the 10th.


message 18: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments I'm about to leave work and go to dinner. I'll look through the rest of your list tonight if I have time. :)

message 38: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments I finished Red Sister (Book of the Ancestor, #1) by Mark Lawrence today and will post review after work.


☆☆Hannah☆☆ | 6596 comments I posted a book that got us 10 points. So that should help too.


message 40: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Amanda I see you are reading Red Sister (Book of the Ancestor, #1) by Mark Lawrence I can hold off doing my review if you want to do a buddy read so we get more points ?

YEAH that's a good idea. xD I keep meaning to pick that one back up and totally forget (I own it). Can you request a thread? I can finish it by the end of the week most likely.

Finished but not reviewed
Red Sister (Book of the Ancestor, #1) by Mark Lawrence

I'm having to train someone at work so I can't listed to my audio books as much as I normally would. Its going to be a slower month for me but I expect to get through the 12 books at least.


message 45: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments I switch departments Monday at work, which means less reading. So I'm trying to get through everything I can this week. The rest of the month will end up a bit slower.


message 46: by Emily (new)

Emily | 352 comments Dang. I would be totally psyched if I could listen while working, but no. I was able to over the summer, but college is starting and work changed with it. New location. However, I'm a literature student and should be able to count many of my class reading for this contest.


message 47: by Trisha (new)

Trisha Yay! Congrats, sounds like good change Amanda!!

and I hope your class has some good reading, Emily!


I'm on vacation this week (and next really)
so I'm reading: Welcome to Night Vale by Joseph Fink & The Beguiled by Thomas Cullinan

hopefully I'll get them finished tomorrow!


message 48: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments Sorry for disappearing! I'm back now though. Literally just walked in the door from vacation.


message 49: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Welcome back Amanda how was the holiday?

I am struggling I have 7 books going at the same time I really need to settle down and get them finished but I am doing another challenge that keeps throwing spanners in the works :(


message 50: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments I ended up injuring my knee... on the plus side, that means more reading? xD
