At least we aren't too far behind Salmon. At least half of their points are probably from letters. :)

I've started Artemis Fowl. Who knows when I'll finish. Realistically Saturday honestly XD Even though it is short.

It's for blank and it's about 4 points. :) So 5 points total.
My kobo app is taking forever to load! -.-
Posted! Now I'm all caught up! ^_^I'm sad that The Girl with all the Gifts is only a 10 pointer. It has over 70 editions! :(
Mod
Okay yay so we sitting at 188
We'll be close to 200 once I'm done The Girl with all the Gifts. Then I'm on to The Young Elites which I think will be about 15-ish points?
I finished the Girl with all the Gifts which I will either gather the energy to post today or tomorrow.I was going to start The Young Elites but felt read out. I will try again a bit later. :)
I'm about 25% into Renegades. I will read more tonight. I meant to read yesterday but had some stuff to do after work. And was too damn exhausted last night to read more than 1 chapter. So I'm gonna get lots more done tonight. :D
Okay, I'm reading Three Dark Crowns, anyone want to sprint?
Rae, for real, please share how you read so fast, I really need some tips/help so I can finish books faster.
I can never sprint with you guys because I am working when y'all are in your evenings and reading freely. -.-

Mod
Yay Truthwitch is a big book! Didn't realise!
I'll try and get Artemis done tomorrow so I can start on Truthwitch. I do have to do some washing and dishes today which = audio. Unfortunately I was rushing too much this morning to set up my audio in the car, so I didn't get to listen. I really should have set it up though because that car trip took 25min which would have been amazing audio time. At least tomorrow morning I know differently!

Just pleased they're not BR. Seems like she isn't actually reading anything, just copy pasting what she has read in the past even in old challenges!
I'm hoping to get most of Renegades finished tonight. This week has been crazy already and it's only Tuesday. My brother is moving out of my apartment so everything is in disarray and I'm going mad. But I'm going to put a few hours down tonight to get some reading done. :D

Holy cow. -.-
Mod
Yeah it's a little crazy. I just messaged Sarah saying 'Well isn't she pushing the boundaries' and she said 'She's pushing something. Very suspicious that she not only posted 8 books that she read last november, but in the same order? that is not right!'

But why you gotta lie? That is so stupid.

I have 2 full time jobs, and school, and baby, and housework.....
IM NOT A CHEAT!!!

Omg I had to come and read this gossip! I remember that challenge when we all confronted her and she had like no time to read because she was so busy but she still managed to read like crazy! Yea we lost that challenge to her!

Holy shit. This is just too much for me to deal with. I'm gonna just read my books and leave that alone. Lmao. I can't even deal right now. Haha.Me and Rae can sip that tea together! Hahaha. ☕️
I do feel bad for Team Spinach though, that must be such a blow. I wonder if Sarah will let her keep the points she had from before?
Right. I don't know. It just seems strange. Like it's just a reading challenge. In the broad aspect of life, this challenge doesn't mean a damn thing... Why cheat?
Mod
All her response to that was 'I did not realize that I submitted it last November for the Series Read Along Challenge. I didn't even check that thread. I apologize for not paying attention, and I'll delete then.' Like shit girl XD That doesn't even address all of the duplicated books... And she doesn't remember posting them then, but she wrote reviews and reused reviews...
Yeah you're all good Rae :D I can tell you're genuine. I just have an odd feeling about her.
Mod
It's fine Maddie. Lol. It's just, I don't know. I can't deal with drama. So I really don't care either way. Lol. Whatever they do about it is fine.
Welllll 
Maybeee there is another explanation?
Mod
Why are you awake Velina.....
Yes? What else can it be? She just needs to come clean and read at her own pace. She is missing out by cheating, she is cheating herself by not enjoying the books.
Mod

I dunno , just trying to be the devil's advocate.. not that Wolf is the devil .. ugh I'm tired imma go sleep 😁
I'm not awake Maddie, this is an illusion I am sleepwriting
Mod
And wait what other explanation you talking about?
Maybe she genuinely forgot that she read them in November ?That sort of thing I mean as another explanation... but since you said she posted them exactly the same way that she did in November the probability for my other explanation is low.
Maddison, I have no idea what your problem is with me. I don’t cheat, I read all those books. I posted new reviews, and I didn’t realize that I posted them last November. I don’t understand why you want me kicked out of the challenge so much. My guess is that you are jealous because you can’t read as fast as several of us. I hope that you will stop being so mean, and come to me to resolve whatever you have a problem with. Are you going to accuse Alaina or Rae of cheating? They read as much or more than me. You don’t know me or who I am. If you have a problem with anything that I just said, PM me and we’ll discuss it elsewhere rather than dragging others into our problem.
Thank you very much,
Wolf(Alpha)

Wow. That is crazy Wolf. No body said u didn’t read them. Just that maybe you didn’t really re-read them. I think it’s hard to accuse velina and Rae when they do BRs and put their comments in those threads and the reviews are fresh. But to each it’s own. I re-read a lot but I also do new reviews and my re-reads for the most part are BRs.

If you want to accuse me of doing something, PM me and we'll discuss it elsewhere. Same for everyone else.

I mean Sarah even said that you posted them the exact same way in the exact same order in November. All of those books. So it is kind of stacking against you. I'm not saying you didn't read them, just that you should be updating your reviews. And no I'm not jealous at all, I have the time to do that if I wish, and I have other hobbies as well. I'm just getting a little bit fed up with how strung out this challenge is, and how it's hardly a challenge anymore because there's people who read 5 books a day. I understand we are in the serious compartment, but it still doesn't make for good competition XD
