✨Skye✨ | 3107 comments Hi guys! Nice to have a challenge where no spreadsheets are required :)


message 3: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments Hey guys! Skye I agree. I usually go fun because either the books I want to read won't count or other people want the category, which is fine. But this challenge is so much easier. I have 18 books on my must read list and they all counted. I was stoked.


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

Checking in!! I wasn't aware the teams were posted already. I'm excited that almost anything will work for this challenge :)


The main stuff I plan on reading for next month is the Percy Jackson Series, The Mortal Instruments Series, and the end of Cirque du Freak Series

Linaria | 2180 comments Yeah, this will be weird Skye :P though I miss the micro-managing of spreadsheets.


message 6: by ✨Skye✨ (new)

✨Skye✨ | 3107 comments This is a super easy challenge. It'll be nice to somewhat mood read for once!

Jennifer | 3530 comments I've got these books planned for another group I'm in, but would love to get some buddy points here if possible:

The Bookseller by Cynthia Swanson Fight of the Walker (The Walker, #3) by Coralee June Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian The Wild Heir by Karina Halle Stuck-Up Suit by Vi Keeland

and the series: Introductions (The Ghost Bird, #1) by C.L. Stone The Girl from Everywhere (The Girl from Everywhere, #1) by Heidi Heilig

I think everything except Ash Princess is on Kindle Unlimited. Anyone up for buddying up?


message 13: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments Sorry :(


message 14: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 3391 comments Hi guys, just to let you know I'm gonna be inactive a little bit for the next couple of days. I'm going on holiday, but I'll still be reading, and then when I'm back home, I'll update my reviews and add them to the thread. I am hoping to get at least one book finished today though.


message 15: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments Have a good holiday!


message 16: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (artsofashes) | 696 comments i started and finished Words in Deep Blue by Cath Crowley today. review will be up soon!!


message 17: by ✨Skye✨ (new)

✨Skye✨ | 3107 comments @Jennifer l can do The Wild Heir if you're still up for it? :)


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

@Astrid how did you like it? It's on my TBR list


message 19: by Nicole (last edited Jul 01, 2018 05:02PM) (new)

Nicole (artsofashes) | 696 comments @Julianne it was ok. i gave it 3 out of 5 stars. i think i would've liked the book more if it were longer!


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

@Astrid I totally understand that! I usually get annoyed when a first in a series book gets REALLY good right at the end!!


also ill finish my first book tonight. only 2 points though


message 21: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments I finished my first book, stayed up quite late because I couldn't put it down. Won't post the review until tomorrow but wanted to let you all know I've started.


message 22: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 3530 comments @Skye - great! I'll set up the thread.


message 23: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 3530 comments @Skye - I added it for 7/23. I hope that date is OK, I'm looking forward to it!

That's great! I only just finished The Swedish Prince the other day and loved Magnus, so really excited for this one :)


message 25: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 3530 comments Yay! :)

I mean that I was just popping in on your thread just because. I'm on a medium team.


message 27: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments Finished my first buddy read yesterday but I still have to write the review. Reading the Handmaid's Tale and Darkest Part of the Forest (both buddy reads) and four other books, so I should have at least two done by tomorrow.
Also starting the Fellowship of the Rings buddy read tomorrow. 😊


message 28: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (artsofashes) | 696 comments starting my first buddy read for this month. i'm reading The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern


message 29: by ✨Skye✨ (new)

✨Skye✨ | 3107 comments Still finishing off a few from last month that I didn't get to, but also doing buddies for Leviathan, books 2 and 3 of the Arcana chronicles and Illuminae. Also got quite a few lined up for later, but those are the ones that are currently active!


message 30: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (artsofashes) | 696 comments almost done with The Astonishing Color of After by Emily X.R. Pan !! i'll have the review up tonight hopefully!


message 31: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments Alright, I'm caught up on my reviews! To be honest, I have a lot of reading to catch up on, so I won't be doing many buddy reads, but I promise to read a lot of other books to make up for it.


message 32: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (artsofashes) | 696 comments @Clephiro good job on all those books!!!


message 33: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments Thanks :) I'm hoping I can finish Wildcard tomorrow <3


message 34: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 3530 comments Hey guys, I might be a little MIA the next few days - got a lot going on. I'll keep reading though, and will review when I can.


message 35: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments Hi guys. Just posted my first five reviews. Sorry it took so long. I've been on my phone and cutting and pasting is a pain. Now that I have my laptop back, it won't take so long.
Planning on finishing up Handmaid's Tale tonight and start a couple others.


message 36: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments I finished two books today but reviews won't go up til tomorrow. Sorry, I'm reading a lot but taking some online classes this summer, so I am up to my ears in writing already :P


message 37: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments Hey guys. Anyone have any weekend plans? Two of my kids are going to be gone so I'm hoping to get through a couple of the books I'm currently reading. I'm determined to finish Handmaid's Tale today. That one is just dragging.


message 38: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments Nope, my weekend plans are to tackle my ARCs and get ahead in my courses. :) I do owe you all another 3-4 reviews already. I'll try to post them today.


message 39: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments I don't know how you do it with courses. I take four classes a semester online and it takes up all my time.


message 40: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (artsofashes) | 696 comments i just posted a review for the book i finished today. now i'm going to focus on queen of shadows. i'm hoping to finish it in the next week.


message 41: by ✨Skye✨ (new)

✨Skye✨ | 3107 comments I work both Saturdays and Sundays in a library, so I don't get much reading time at weekends! Hopefully I'll still make progress though :)


message 42: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments I worked at my county's public library for six years. There were so many people who thought I read all day. It would have been nice but instead I just had to look at all the books I'd rather be reading


message 43: by ✨Skye✨ (new)

✨Skye✨ | 3107 comments That is what people tend to think! I still enjoy it because at least I'm surrounded by what I love and can actually talk with customers about something I'm very passionate and mildly knowledgeable about. Plus, I get some very generous breaks and can get my own reading done then :)


message 44: by [deleted user] (new)

Sorry Ive been on a mini vacation! Ill be reading all weekend though


message 45: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments Laptop is back out of commission for a few days. So I will be updating from the library computers when I can. Buddy reads are going to be a pain. 😒


message 46: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (artsofashes) | 696 comments i don't think i have any plans for going anywhere this month. but if i do i'll tell you guys!


message 47: by Linaria (new)

Linaria | 2180 comments I caught up on my reviews. Posted 5 today. I doubt I'll get through a whole book today, but I should have more for tomorrow.


message 48: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments Hey guys. I should have three books done tonight. None are buddy reads though 😕 I'm gonna try to get through a couple of those tomorrow.


message 49: by [deleted user] (new)

Almost half way thru Blood Promise! Not a BR but worth 5 points!


message 50: by Ashley W (new)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6011 comments Going to get through The 100 today and probably A Madness So Discreet. Maybe another. How is everyone doing?
