Okay! We'll have to wait for Melanie for now! ;)
I can read

Okay, great!! I can do this one if one of the other books don't work for task #35. :)
Oh okay. Could I read
for Round 4 and
for another round? Or if you want to do task #35, that's fine. I've already started "I'll watch the moon" so I don't think I can wait to finish it for a round a long tine from now!Sorry I'm being a nuisance! ;)

That's great!!!!! Its nice to be done fast so we can get other reading done that we might not be reading for this challenge!! :)
I have posted both of my reviews for this round. YAY!Also if we still need round 4 bonus point, I will look for the required items while I read.

Posted my review of the Amish Knitting Circle and I was able to find chimney mentioned so we have round 4 bonus point

Happy New Year Team! :)"
You're welcome!
Yes!! It felt strange writing/typing "January 1, 2018" on my review! :D
Monique wrote: "Thank you all for being so on top of this challenge! I appreciate our team SO much! :)"Me too!! I've loved doing this!!
Would
work for any of the tasks in Round Six?And would
work for a task in Round Seven?
Monique wrote: "R.A./Rosalyn - The Dressmaker's Secret will work for task #5 in Round 6, and Ivy Introspective will work for task #19 in Round 7. I've updated this in our task post...."Great!!!! Thanks!
Monique wrote: "Kenzie - Courageous (I noticed you are currently reading this) will work for task #23. Would you like to do this for Round Five, which starts on Wednesday? :)#23. Nativity Element..."
I would like to, but I read it at a friends house and still haven't gotten it from the library. I could do that for round 6.
I would actually like to read
for #25. Christmas Gift Giving for this round. Nessa is given a gift and she unwraps it at night.

If its alright, I would like to read
for round 7. The main character is a football player.I would read it for task #32. Super Bowl LII (February 4).
Monique wrote: "Thank you Rosalyn and Kenzie for your Round Five review posts! :)I am a little more than halfway through my second Round Five book (for task #26) and I plan on finishing it by Sunday. My reading ..."
No problem! I like getting done early! ;)
Hmmm, I don't know what book I'd read for it! I guess a lot of books would work for it, seeing the title can begin with a letter from MANGER. What were you planning on reading for it?
Monique wrote: "The book I had planned on reading for task #21 is God Is in the Small Stuff..., because the title starts with a letter in MANGER, and it was published in the month of December, so it ..."Hmm okay!! Yeah I don't know of any books that's been published in December either!

Monique wrote: "Thank you so much Rosalyn, Kenzie, and Kim for your contributions to the current round we're in! :)I'll be finishing off Round Five tomorrow with my #26 read."
No problem!!!! :)
Monique wrote: "By chance, are any of you planning on reading a book that could cover the #21 task and its bonus point? If so, feel free to take claim of this task. If not, I'll cover it in Round Seven as planned. :)..."I'll see what books I have. I don't normally look at when a book was published, so I'll probably be going through all the books on my bookshelf that work for #21.
Monique, were you offering in case someone else had been planning on that, or are you to busy to do it and would rather have someone else do it?

Oh yes, I know how that is!! I hope your writing goes well and you can relax! :)
I'm going to try to finish the book I'm reading for this round tomorrow, so I'll put up my review then. :)
I finished reading the book I chose for this round and it's up on the review thread. :)
Monique wrote: "Thank you Rosalyn! You just need to change the task title in your post from "Happy New Year" to "Winter Beverages." Task #5 is the "Winter Beverages" task. ;)"Hahaha, oh yeah, whoops. I had copied your section so I could fix to be mine. :p I'll go do that.
Should I still finish the book I'm reading for the last round, even though a team has already one? :)
Okay. I need to finish the book anyway because it's been in my folder to-read for too long!! ;) Does it matter when we finish these books?
Oh I know! Me too!!!!I have quite a few books to review, so hopefully they will be fine for tasks in the next challenge! :) Doing a challenge is really the only way it will make me read them!! :D
I probably will not submit my review then, I haven't finished and I can easily put it down and read something else. Thanks for letting me join.HUGS

That's great!
Thank you everyone for letting me be part of this challenge. It was a lot of fun. I really sad that its over, but at the same time relieved, cause I have so much to do I don't have time to read anything. Thanks again. *Hugs*
Ohh, I mixed up the dates and I thought I could finish my book tomorrow!! Ugh. I probably won't be finishing it today as I have quite a few more pages to read! :(
