I am going to try medium this time. I can do 8-12 books.
I'll sign up for a fun team :)
Oh this sounds so fun! I think I'll sign up for a just for fun team, even though I really would like to go Medium. I'm hoping this challenge will get me reading more.
Wow! This challenge is really nice! I'm up for medium, please.

Having now looked over the rules - and trying to ensure 2-3 books that could fit categories with clear definitions - I am now stressing about making sure I don’t nick any of these potential titles for Scrabble...Super excited by this challenge.
Okay this sounds fun. SIgn me up for Solo please! :D

Can't wait to get the first five categories.

I want to join the just for fun team. It's such a nice challenge!!
I am super excited for this. Can't wait for teams to be set.
I have not looked at the rules they seem very intense...lol, but I am down for serious.

I'm loving it though :D More mood-reading next month!"I think you're right in that we have to wait to know our categories. I've tried to identify 2-3 books that are possible for each of the 1-40 categories. Reckon that should cover it!
Have a couple of really good books I want to get to, that I'll be hoping for a wild card.

But remember that it's not just you reading for each, ideally you'd only read one or two books for each category depending on speed XD Team participation will be needed.

Well I think a lot of preparation can be done ahead of time by finding buddies for books, especially with team members and then just find a category they fit in later. Planning BRs is half the battle on any challenge if you want those double pointsss.
Looking at the later categories there's a lot of potential for crossover, hence me thinking get a few for each category. Amanda, the BR planning is definitely important here.
I'm also thinking there'll be some super-fast readers who will read stuff that might not fit the given category but they can be banked ready.
The need for planning and everyone actively working together is a given here. Think this is why these ones are such good challenges.
Will we be able to move books off wildcards if they later work for a different card (so long as we can replace wildcard spot)?

Ahh I always love complex challenges like these! So I'm super super excited
