Hello team red penguin! I’m sorry that I am coming with bad news but I just wanted to let you all know that Jessica said she’s no longer participating in this challenge. So the next two people who sign up will be added to your team. I, or one of the other mods, will probably send out a possible team replacement message to everyone in the group to see if we can get some more people to join.

[Alaina]

The Gryffindorable Fox has been added to your team as a replacement player!

[Alaina]

You also got your second replacement player, Jessica!

[Ivana - Diary of Difference]

Welcome! It's my first challenge too, and I've made some friends as well. Let us know if you need any help. We usually post here what we're reading and what our TBR list looks like, and if people have the same book, we buddy read because it brings more points :D

okay, I am behind on reading thanks to work, so Nov 9 is taking a backseat. I am sad that you didn't like it! And also nervous. lol
