Awesome! Amanda and I will be reading The Long Game on November 20th, does that work?

[Jacquelyn]

Here are my shelves for series I’m hoping to either finish or start in November and December.

On my “to finish” shelf, if I listed the first book in the series, that means I need to reread the series from the beginning.

Firefight, as I've already read Steelheart. :)

[Jacquelyn]

Ok!

[Jacquelyn]

I’ve read Steelheart too, but it’s been a few years haha, so our going to reread it

[Lisa]

Did i hear STEELHEART?😃

Do you want to push back the start date, so that you have time to reread Steelheart?

[Melanie]

Anyone want to buddy read:

Omg Lisa 😂 You are so funny 😂

I think I should be fine, I’d listen to it on audio but I think I have to squeeze it in. If not, I don’t have to reread it 😊

[Melanie]

Also, I created a shelf of possible reads. If anyone wants to buddy read any, let me know :)

[Carolyn]

Has anyone asked for a BR thread for Delirium?

[Sanah]

I've made a list of some series I'd like to get to, so if anyone would be interested in buddy reading any of these with me, let me know!

[Megan]

@Melanie, I can BR:





(series)

(I have to read the first two first, so this one would have to be later in the challenge)

(I need to read the first book first, but would be willing to read this one with you)

Let me know which dates work best, the 11/1 and 11/11 are booked for me, but the rest of the challenge is pretty open right now.

[Melanie]

Megan, awesome!!!! I'm so excited you want to buddy read those books. I'll PM you to discuss dates soon. :))

[Wolf (Alpha)]

Instead of doing just our buddy reads, I'm going to include a list of all the buddy reads going on in the group, so we know what is available as a BR for more points.

[Lara]

Hey I'm checking in!!

For The Amateurs, you need to read book 2 and 3 right? i can do those with you, need to read book 1 first, but it's on the small side so should only take a few hours

and i'm super tempted to do Shopaholic with you, i read the whole series a few years back but love them so much!

I can reread the first book with you, it’s been a while so I can’t remember some of the details

I own the first shopaholic book and I’ve been dying to start the series! Haha

Oh good, you want to start on the 5th then?

Ah, ok let me see if i can get the first book from the library and we can do it, i like it too much to deny you it, haha :D

[Jacquelyn]

How kind of you! 😂😃
I think I’m going to love it lol

[Brooke]

Jacquelyn wrote: "How kind of you! 😂😃

Was the 5th good for The Amateurs?

[Jacquelyn]

Oh sorry! I missed you mentioning that! Yeah that works for me!

[[deleted user]]

sorry if this has already been stated in the rules or on this chat, but how long should our reviews be, assuming they’re written once finishing a book instead of updates throughout reading a book

[Lisa]

Naomi wrote: "sorry if this has already been stated in the rules or on this chat, but how long should our reviews be, assuming they’re written once finishing a book instead of updates throughout reading a book"

I don't think there are exact rules for how long it should be but maybe around 10 sentences?
For more exact rules you can ask Abbie or Sarah at the main chat as they are hosting this challenge :)

[Lisa]

So, what i "plan" to read for this challenge:

@Andrea: Sorry, i didn't see you post. But great, maybe starting on the 1st of November? Or is that too early for you?

Preferable early November. Do you want to start on the 1st? Which book is your choice.

[[deleted user]]

did you want to start the fallen on the 1st? ive got that book borrowed right now so probably the best option if thats alright with you :)

[Lisa]

i have both books ready :) but we can start with Fallen on the 1st :) i'll request the thread :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Hello Team Rudolf, just to let you know that I am adding Christine to your team ☺

[Jacquelyn]

Is there a series br thread for Delirium?

[Heather]

What’s everyone’s first read going to be?

[Melanie]

Heather wrote: "What’s everyone’s first read going to be?"

will be the first book I start. :)

[Kelli]

I plan to start and right away tomorrow :)

[Heather]

I’m starting off with Muse of Nightmares!

[[deleted user]]

what time zone are we basing the dates off? it probably doesn’t matter i just wanna get it down to the exact time if i wanted to squeeze in an extra book or two

[Jamie]

The challenge officially goes by goodreads time stamp which is for pst but you can choose to use that or the time zone you are in. But you stick to that for both your start and end time.

[[deleted user]]

@Lisa did you want to set a finish date?
how long will itlikely take you to finish

[Jess]

Just double checking before it starts, we can carry on series that we have already started, can’t we? For example if i had read the first two books in a series before the challenge, I can carry on during the challenge but the first two books won’t count towards any points?

[Jamie]

Jess wrote: "Just double checking before it starts, we can carry on series that we have already started, can’t we? For example if i had read the first two books in a series before the challenge, I can carry on ..."

Yes, you can read any volume in a series. You can even skip volumes. So say you read the first 2 books and you read 3 in Nov but don't have 4 so you just go to book 5 you can. Whatever works for you. :)
