Thank you Sarah. I might restart A Court of Mist and Fury because I don't remember much of what I read. I keep putting it off because it's so big and I didn't enjoy it as much as the first 2.

Do you want to go medium then?

[Wolf (Alpha)]

When will teams me up?

[Maddie]

Pleased I've gone medium. I might read a bit over 12 books, but maybe not too because I've got some bigger fantasy books planned XD

Most likely tomorrow

[Susan]

Sarah, yes to medium unless I'm to late

[Yesha- Books Teacup and Reviews]

I would like to join solo team if I'm not late.

[Velina]

I have a question. The books we read only count if we write a review or 4 detailed updates ? And do you count our points in the end or do we calculate them ourselves? 🙂

[Tati]

Yes, for the books to count, you have to either write a review of 4 detailed updates.

And the mods keep track of the points.

[Bayan]

I would like to join for serious :)

Maddison, you signed up for a serious team, did you want to switch to medium?

Yes, you need to write either a review or 4 detailed status updates so we know that you've read the book. Us mods will keep track of points for you ☺

Do books read from the 1st January count? Just with the teams going up a bit late, wasn't sure what date we were starting from?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

We're starting from January 1st, so anything you've already read this month will count ☺

It was published in 2017 so you can use it for that category ☺

Sarah, I just saw your group message. I'd be willing to replace someone if they don't check in if needed. Can I go solo for now though until you know more?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Yes, that's fine, thank you ☺ I'll add you now ☺
