Yep! No-brainer to finish what we can with finished books. Our team score really needs a boost.

Well I hope to help as much as possible :)
:)Jamie, I think it is ok for you to post your Fall of the Governor for G in our current puzzle. Since that is the last letter we need, we'll be moving on to the next puzzle immediately and Sierra can post her G tonight.
Maybe we'll also get a chance to see what we get for the next puzzle and be able to fit more books into the sheet.Plus, it will give everyone a chance to see if they want to move stuff around.

Okay. Change approved by you then :)
Do we want a point total or just a new board?
I’m more interested in the new board
okay, requested a new one on the main thread :)
Yeah just new board! Since we'll also be able to fill in most of the next board, wanna give everyone time to post their reviews so we'll get all those points with a new spin, hopefully a big one! Just finished Invitation Only, hopefully can finish Days of Blood and Starlight today too! Randomly have a bunch of books I'm like halfway through this month.
Okay I moved all of my in progress but unfinished books to the brand new board, we should be able to fly through the next two we have with all finished books, save for one Y!
So, using all the finished books for this next board then? and moving others down, correct?

J..."Yeah I would say every 6-10 reviews is a good time for a spin. What does everyone else think? Or maybe do one more board then spin?
I will post my Y review in the evening, I will try during my work break, but most likely later in the evening. Also, I have a day off tomorrow, so I will get to read a lot of my Netgalley books.

But that’s my opinion. And we can move things around again if needed before the spin.
So after A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith? Then a spin?
Typing out my G now and will post soon then ill have to go for a bit and as soon as I get back N and T will be posted
That’s my thought, but I’m okay with whatever you guys choose to do.
Maybe like every 2 or 3 boards finished? if we hit that 50 with 2 boards done or even 3 that would be a HUGE jump. just my 2 cent
I got to go to work, but I will have my Y book posted tonight.
I wouldn't go 2-3 boards based on how many boards have been flipped so far and how risky that is. That is 25-40 books and one bad spin and we are done. I'd say at the end of each board (combining the last board with this one) is good for now. Depending on the next spin we can change it if we need to to try and take a higher placing.
That is true too. I posted G I gtg for a bit be back as fast as I can be
Jen, I moved your book While they watch by Susie Frost up to W for our newest board since it is finished. Hope that is okay.
No worries. I added finished books to the new board where I could. Saved the ones marked red for the board after this, for suggested moves still until I get those confirmed. :)
Alright so as soon as everyone can post their reviews, we can spin (?? my recommendation being that is about 20 books but up to everyone), get a new title for sure and turn around and finish the next board all over again and be halfway done with the 3rd! Lets do this!!
Posted all my reviews due. Will have the ones for the next puzzle ready by tonight, just in case.
I think just doing a spin like every 2-3 days should be fine. We have a full team of good readers now so we should be able to hit a good number of letters each day. I think I'm too risk averse to rely on a big spin for a ton of letters, but I'm fine with whatever the group wants to do!
I leave you guys to figure out when to spin. I'll just keep reading! LOL.
Haha. we'll figure it out at some point. not a bit worry. I am with you on just reading. Does us no good to worry about spins and forget to read. :)

Once we get all books posted by Lane and Sharon we can ask for another title! YAY! We will have posted 20 books and over 30 letters for the spin if we are ready at that time.I would say that might be a good time and then pending what we get probably do the next 2 boards before a spin since 1 is ready to just post and the other almost done? What does everyone think?Asking since we will be ready for a new title when Sarah gets back on it seems :)

Woooo currently working on typing everything out then gunna move stuff to the BR and the review then ill post
I think we def need the new board and probably have her spin and add everything up
Just got home from work. Will write and post my review in the next few mins
Alright! Got a couple quick books knocked out today (well I have abut 40 pgs left of Goodbye Elizebeth but will be done tonight) started a new audiobook and made some more progress in my other BRs. A good reading day!
YAY! Now we just need Lane's books! :)
Posted my books. Jamie, I moved two of your finished books (K and O) into two of my unfinished spots for The Demon King, so just a couple more books to go for that one :)
Alright I’ll get to my computer to take a look in a few :)
Asking Sarah for spin, total and new title so we can post for the next one :)
