haha!! did you look at her list? she did put a few different ones in there! lol

Who wants to roll tomorrow?Did anyone noticed we haven't spelled out a word in weeks(5 to be exact)? Maybe we should try with something smaller like crime?
lol....we've all been busy I guess and focusing on other challenges...OR...we could do each word a bit longer :)

Yes, big words are hard when you don't have to push yourself to read those letters. I've read loads of books this week, they've just been too short.
Small word would be good.
As to rolling, I'm always as option if no one else wants to

"Really? :P How are shifters going? I stared that hockey one. It's readable but only first few books are big enough. *sigh* Let me know if you find another 10-points series.

We could always make new words. Or use alternative spelling or something :P
Wanna modify rules? One book=two letters? Chunkster=3? Did anyone use chunkster rule?
Catherine wrote: "making posts dissappear!!! isn't that unconstitutional???? lol freedom of speech and all that!! lol"Nope. As I said it's magic so no
I'm about to read #24 in the shifters, so only a few more left. I will let you know if I find one. Making up words sounds good. What words?
Yes, I had a few 500+ books a few weeks ago. So yes to changing rules of One book=two letters, Chunkster=3
I haven't read this series yet Wolves of stone ridge I have got the first book
. It looks like it could work. There a quite a lots there with 25 books. What you think?
MODIFICATION OF MODIFIED RULES
Since Hobbits are spending too much time smoking pipe-weed instead of reading
Spin the wheel or this one
Option 1 - If you don't really like your spin, spin again. ☺
Option 2 - Use your spin for 'new' word. Take first letter of genre you got and think of Hobbit-y word (if you're in the mood. If not, pick any word starting with that letter)
Option 3 - Pick a book title for spell out from genre you've spun.
Modified rule:
- If word for spelling has more than 7 letters, one book can be used for 2 letters. If book has more than 500 pages, you can use it for 3 letters. In this case, books with 100-150 pages can be used for 1 letter.
- If word has 7 or less, old rules apply. One book is 1 letter unless it has over 500 pages. Than it's 2. ☺ In this case, books with 100-150 pages can't be used.
Please when coming with words/titles/genres have in mind that there are some letters that are almost always left unread (think of Ys and Us).
Have fun reading!
(Did I forget something?)

Not to mention we are sorted in different houses (another group is doing Harry Potter themed year. I'm Slytherin and Danielle is Ravenclaw.) *goes to practice hexes*
Speaking of HP, Danielle, they are doing HP&SS BR there in January. Will you be ready then? So we can do double BR (here and there)? ☺
Yes, I'll be ready then so we can double up.I think that now I've been accepted into Ravenclaw it's time to learn to world of HP
✼Danielle✼ wrote: "Looks good, Tea. Are you going to be first roller?"I can't. I'm leaving on a trip on Friday so I won't be able to update last few days.
I'll be gone till 29th so you guys will be all alone. No parties allowed!!! (Unless it's welcome back one.)
And then we can have pre-birthday-party party :P
Catherine wrote: "hey...where's the HP challenge? why wasn't I informed!!! lol"*sigh*
You're hanging out with the wrong crowd. :P
Check A Million More Pages group
Ok, I'll give these new rules a try out then. No party. *waits until Tea leaves. Party time Catherine and Audrey*
In January we can have a pre-read-party BR for 4th THIRDS book.
✼Danielle✼ wrote: "I think that now I've been accepted into Ravenclaw it's time to learn to world of HP"Well, Harry didn't know anything either until he got letter from Hogwarts :P
One tidbit: I'm also in HP world here - Seeker is position in Quidditch (sport) :P
Oh, and remind me when you finish with books to give you some fanfic ideas (mm ones :P)
Harry Potter challenge seems nice! Danielle is Ravenclaw so she's a serious student and knows all the spells. But Slytherin don't exactly play by the rules :pQuidditch! I loved reading those scenes. I'm still waiting for my Nimbus 2000 for my birthday.
Of course Tea, we will behave...*takes out the fireworks, the ones that go into a dragon shape*

❀Tea❀ wrote: "Audrey Jane wrote: "But Slytherin don't exactly play by the rules :p"Are you trying to tell me something?"
I wouldn't dare! Slytherin is a great house, also you have prof. Snape :)
Is coast clear now?
Oh, good. :DI've been practicing some spells. I guess I'll wait for Danielle to stop by to test them (again) :P
BTW, Catherine ended up in Slytherin also.
