Hello Sharon! This is my first time joining a serious team. :)
I’m making a progress thread right now.
We can allocate books on the team Progress thread and see how it plays out.
Hi! I am wondering how serious everyone is about winning the challenge??? (or getting as close as possible) I've got a few ideas, but I tend to be competitive and don't always know when to just hang back and keep my mouth shut. So....I thought I would just ask.Do we want to have a shot? or do we just want to see how things go?
I just have a few suggestions on how we could be more strategic in our reading. I could message you my ideas if you like.
Hey gang, Here are the buddy reads I am planning on participating in the 1st half of the month:G -

What Lies Beneath will likely lead to an "N", a "V" and a "Z" very quickly since those are the next books in the series (assuming it doesn't stink and we don't want to continue reading).
What are you guys planning on reading?
Oh! I forgot to mention, I could also re-read
and
if we need the letters and BR's. RPO is one of my favorite books and I love listening to the audiobook with Will Wheaton as the narrator.
I can read both books with you. It would be a year since I read RPO.
I can do Scythe with you as well. Been wanting to read that one as well.
Cool! the BR's have already been set up, so there should be a few of us. I think Scythe is with Bookbuyer and I don't know who set up RPO.
YES! It's the reason why I've changed to a serious team. I feel really competitive. Now, I'm hyped up. We're up against strong teams. I'm willing to listen to your ideas.
So far, here are my BR's for March W -

Those are just letters in its English translations. We can check it out if it has available letters in its other language translation (If need be)
I will add them. Going to make a private group for us.
I just added these BR's to my list for the 1st half of the month. Dang it, I'm going to be BUSY!H -

Elusion sounds intriguing. I'm adding it to my TBR
I'm looking for someone to BR with
Let me know if you're interested I'll request the thread.
We only have one available for letter Q. I'm reading that letter.
Only one available letter for X as well. I'll take that letter.
Does anyone have a "Q" planned? We only need one so it doesn't make sense to buddy together within our group. There are a couple of books I have on my Want to Read list that will fit, I can try to find someone in another group unless someone is already tackling that letter.
Also looks like we will need some M's, P's, N's, and all the vowels pretty soon so be on the look out.
I’m looking at some BRs to jump into this month. I know a few letters that we got, but I think we need a plan of which letter we will use for each book before inputting it into the progress thread.
Does anyone else have Kindle Unlimited?
I don’t. I usually get books from my friends.
As near as I can tell, here is what we have planned so far. Wow, we really need those vowels.need/Planned:
A - 9/1
B - 2/3
C - 2/2
D - 4/2
E - 12/1
F - 2/2
G - 3/3
H - 2/1
I - 9/3
J- 1/1
K - 1/1
L - 4/1
M - 2/1
N - 6/1
O - 8/0
P - 2/1
Q - 1/1
R - 6/6
S - 4/3
T - 6/1
U - 4/2
V - 2/1
W - 2/2
X - 1/1
Y - 2/2
Z - 1/1
blank -2/0
There's only one tile for X and we have 2 planned reads for that letter alone. Are you reading an X, Jennifer? I can delay my read for this one.
Let's just check the other title translation if need be.

I edited the need/planned above so it is easier to read. I didn't realize it was so skewed when I pressed "post".
I might have a couple more "I's" if I can get through the 1st book in some of my series. There is a BR for
that I will try to join.Does anyone want to read
with me for an E? I've already downloaded it and have it ready, but it would be nice to read with someone.
Man, I'm feeling nervous about this challenge. XD
It is so complex. I dont have any buddy reads planned yet but I can do many as required.
OK, I am almost done with Glass Sword and should be able to review it tonight. Since we only need two G's and Sharon and I are reading Girl with All the Gifts later, what do you say I put it under the Z version? There is also an edition with over 600 pages, so we would get the max out of that letter. The other Z book I had planned was only 300 pages. What do you think team?
Jennifer wrote: "OK, I am almost done with Glass Sword and should be able to review it tonight.

I was actually hoping someone would take it.
Hey team, let me know which letter you chose for the books you are reading. I am going to update the progress thread. The two Gs and Z are taken, so I will update those first.

Count me in!
I have an M (sorry I posted this many times)
Hey Ladies, Sarah needs us to respond to her question about Joi's review.I'm torn. We need more T's but I think we won't have too much trouble getting them once we get started, and we already have too many B's planned. There are other editions that could be a P or an L too.
Also, we said that we would try to stick the non-BR's under Blanks at first. Is that what you want to do for this one?? Joi, will you mind if we do that?
