Done!

I am slowly, but steadily, taking control of the spreadsheet 😈😈😈

EDIT to say that I'll keep filling your spreadsheet for you if you post your books in this thread.

Welcome to the team Quinn!!! We're thrilled to have you!! Yup all you have to do is read books and either update your spreadsheet as you finish them or report them here so we (ahem...Virginie) can update it.

Is it delusional that I think 200 isn't that bad? Like, we may not be out of it yet?


message 1868: by Lena (new)

Lena Hopeful, not delusional.

Welcome back, Liam! I assume it is time to congratulate you? ;)

How's the new parent life? I hope everything went well and baby and mom are doing fine.


message 1873: by Quinn (new)

Quinn | 460 comments I will do my best! If the book is good I can usually read fast.


message 1874: by Liam (new)

Liam (leeman729) | 828 comments Thank you Virginie ^_^. You're the best.

And thank you Miche! Everything is splendid. James is two months old, sleeping through the night, happy and smiling all the time, and Lily is fully recovered and doing really well. I've been getting my reading game back on the last two weeks, and it feels so good to be getting into books again.

Author: Rachel Aaron
Pages: 311
Buddy Read: No
Challenge: Yes (Cover)
Total points: 3.9

Done with the series. Overall, a great and fun series. Dunno if I'll continue to the next series though. I think it's completely unnecessary to continue the story again after this.

Virginie | 6129 comments Ooooh, what a cute baby! 😍

Virginie | 6129 comments Great job, Petrik!
I'm really excited to continue that series now :D There's been a sequel series announced? :o

Thank you! Yeah! At the acknowledgment! I dunno how necessary it is though, I thought everythign was solved already. I will read Rachel Aaron Garrison Girl because I'm a huge fan of Attack on Titan!

Virginie | 6129 comments Ooooh, she wrote an Attack on Titan novel?!? Thanks for putting that on my radar! I'll def read that too :D


message 1890: by Quinn (new)

Quinn | 460 comments so i will get bonus if the book is part of the challange.. Maybe I should do one of these challanges. There are so many different challanges. Which do you suggest?


message 1891: by Lena (new)

Lena Small edit Virginie, I’ve added Artificial Condition to my Diversity Challenge. So it was a buddy read and a challenge.
Quinn, here’s an example of my favorite challenge: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
The series Challenge has also been useful to keep me going as well as the overflowing shelves challenge. They take time to fill in and if you do too many it will start to feel fussy as hell. But one to three Challenges pushes you forward!


message 1892: by Virginie (new)

Virginie | 6129 comments I edited your scoresheet, Lena. I had already marked that book as part of your Series challenge though.


message 1893: by Lena (new)

Lena Ok cool. Ah, that’s right, I put the murderbot diaries as a series I’m tracking.

I especially like the Bingo challenge: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...?
The Incomplete Series challenge is quite useful to track your ongoing series and cover most of the books. Here's mine:

You don't have to detail it as much as I have though. I'm a tad obsessed with lists and organizing ^_^


message 1895: by Quinn (new)

Quinn | 460 comments Thank you! Out of curious if a book I read can be count as two different challanges can I complete two challanges of same book?


message 1896: by Virginie (last edited May 26, 2018 06:59AM) (new)

Virginie | 6129 comments You can use a book for two different challenges, yes. However, you can't use a book twice WITHIN a challenge.
Example: The Wheel of Osheim fits " A book with an anti-hero" and "The last book in a series" in the Bingo challenge but I can't use it for both categories.

Is that what you meant?

Yep thank you so much!


message 1898: by Lena (new)

Lena Lol, as you can see from my Series Challenge the look is completely up to what makes sense to you.

Quinn | 460 comments Ok I will try to make it looks good but as English is my second language so it might looks funny

Lena You profile says Canada but there is an Eiffel Tower in your profile pic. French? Are you in Quebec?
