I'm in for fun team. Can we read books in other languages if we review them in English?

Yes, that's fine ☺
Mod
We'll allow graphic novels, but they need to be either 300 pages long minimum, or you need to read and post them in multiples which add up to the 300 page minimum ☺
Can I sign up for a medium team, please :)
I would like to join are the groups already made?

I'll join the medium team, if that's okay.
Sorry to be a pain but can I switch from fun to serious instead? I need to push myself in this New Years resolution.
Mod
Sure ☺

I'll be making the teams tomorrow, would you like to join a serious, medium or fun team?
How many books need to be read on medium? I think I read that many but I have had a crazy month and Jan. may not be much different. My grandson came 2 weeks early and they live with me so I can help them out with their first baby. I have several birthday's in Jan. but I think that's it. I might be able to do a medium team but not sure what the book totals need to be to be on a medium team.Also, I have several books on my currently reading list but I may have only read the first chapter on them. Red Rising is one I have read 65 pages but want I have n clue now what is happening in the book because I had other challenges to read and never got back to the book. I want to start over so can I count that book? I also have A Court of Wings and Ruin on that list. I got to page 444 but still have over 250 pages to go. Can I count those 250+ pages? I may have to start that one over too because I started it June 26th and I haven't gotten back to it yet.
Almost every book on my currently reading list I need to start again but there are 3 or 4 that I can pick up where I left off. Can I count the remaining pages of those books?
Sorry to bombard you with all that but wanted to cover all my bases with books I need to finish reading (It's my New Years resolution is to finish the books on my currently reading list on Goodreads
@Susan - Medium team is 8 to 12 books.You can count the pages you read in January only. You can count those 250 pages and those remaining pages as long as you read them in January.
Congrats on the new grandson! My cousin came early recently too.
@susan Congrats on the new grandson!!!!
@sarah if possible can i move to a medium team i need a push? if not its totally fine :) and happy new year :)
I’d like to join a fun team, if it’s not too late!
Is it too late to join? Can I do a serious team?
I'm in for medium if it isn't too late :)
I'll like to be in the Serious team if its not too late. :)

Hi Susan, for a medium team we would expect you to read somewhere around 8-12 books. You would be able to use Red Rising if you restarted it, and you would be able to use the last few pages of A Court of Mist and Fury because it was published in 2017. Whether you could use the other books on your currently reading shelf would depend on whether they fit into the challenge categories -
-read a new-to-you author,
-read a new-to-you series
-read a new-to-you genre
-read a new book (published 2017/2018)
-read a book with less than 100 ratings on Goodreads
-read an ARC
-read a book with 'new' in the title
Mod
That's fine ☺
