Booksiren peeps, how do I add social media? Like other accounts have the twitter and Facebook icon, but I dont see the way to add them. Help?

[Alaina]

on goodreads?

[Jacquelyn]

Just a little heads up, this weekend (Friday-Sunday in the US) I will be going on a road trip with some friends and I don’t expect to have time to read. I’ll try to get a lot read tonight and tomorrow. 🙂

Thanks! I’m really excited! We are going to see a live recording of one of our favorite podcasts! Then we are just making a fun weekend out of it! 🥂

[Jamie]

Alright so after all the talk on book sirens I figure I better check it out. Not sure if it is any good (anyone have more experience?) but why not. My profile: https://booksirens.com/reviewer/MXHI44X

[Brooke]

Posted a few reviews of the books i managed to read during my work week. My son is going to his grandma's for the weekend, and my husband is working overtime, so hello reading time.

[Alaina]

I'm on late and I have a review to write for us but if I'm being honest, it probably wont be up until tomorrow. Anyone want to sprint for a little bit??

[Heather]

Just finished writing a review and will post it either tonight before bed or tomorrow morning!!

I'm glad that I got my review up earlier, as I don't feel like writing any right now. I barely feel like reading. lol

[Dr. Andy]

I have like 3 maybe 4 reviews to write later. Hopefully I’ll do that tonight

[Brooke]

We're getting our butts handed to us right now, over a 100pts difference between us. UGH.

I just saw that. :(

Hey, guys. Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Thanks to Alaina for posting the Delirium BR thread. I'm 62% through Delirium. It's so good. I posted my updates on the BR thread. Anybody care to do a reading sprint? I could use one. 😊

[Alaina]

I have a couple of books finished that I need to review :D When I get home from work, I will add them!!

[Carolyn]

Never mind. I don't want to do any reading sprints. I can't focus on reading.

[Sanah]

Duologies count towards the challenge right? Slowly making my way through A Darker Shade of Magic and I plan on marathoning a bunch of Victoria Schwab this weekend

Yes any book that is a part of a series counts

[Carolyn]

80% done with Delirium. Yay! 😊

[Alaina]

added 6 books :D 5 were BR's. I've done some chores and such - so I'm going to sit down and read some more

[Carolyn]

Done with Delirium. Starting Pandemonium.

[Morgan]

yay welcome!

[Alaina]

okay so I will be adding 3 reviews right now. Just have to write them up :D

[Morgan]

I'm checking in

[Alaina]

Finished A Castle of Sand and I'm working on Claiming Grace. If I have time, I might start City of Bastards too.

[Carolyn]

Hey. To the people who are going to BR Deilrium with me, I think you will like it if you like Divergent. I never read Divergent, so I can't tell you that. But is it okay if I start the BR for Pandemonium? I'll request it for today.

[Brooke]

Tried to have a productive weekend, but some other forces didn't want it to happen...

Finished:
Redeemed (500pgs + 12th in series)
Dial L for Loser (200pgs + 6th in series)
Scythe (500pgs + BR)
Tagged for Death (300pgs)
Glory in Death (BR + 400pgs + 2nd in series)

Should finish two more by tomorrow's work day. i'll try to write reviews on my down time, but going into the "holiday" season, i have less down time now.

[Christine]

Hello Team! I know this isn't related to the challenge but I want to share this awesome experience with you. My friend went to a book signing of and it is unfortunate for me to be at work on that day. Luck is on my side when my friend asked a favor from both Adam Silvera and Becky Albertalli to greet me a happy birthday. I was literally screaming at the office when he showed me the video! Adam showed me his tattoos which I have requested (of course!).

Hope you all had a great weekend!

[Alaina]

Hey guys! I'm working from home now, well I have been for a couple of hours - yay! I've finished a couple of books that will work for this challenge, two are ARCs that I don't think will. I just have to finish one my books then I will start typing out reviews :D Should have 3 to post (so far).

[Dr. Andy]

I should have 3 reviews later tonight

[Jacquelyn]

I have 2 reviews to post later on

[Alaina]

I only had one to post this morning, but I will be reading two books while at work - so maybe more reviews to come?

[Brooke]

i have 8 reviews i need to write but between work and some buddy reads i have to get done this week, i have no time. Thursday night i will probably write them all, thou they might call over time for me this week so then it would have to be friday or saturday :(

Kind of confused I've read a couple of books, but I've only got 1 bonus point, when ive read two books that are first in the series and one that is 3rd, doesntthat mean i should have 5 bonus points or am i reading teh challenge wrong??

Pretty sure you don't get the bonus points if it wasn't read completely in November/December.

yah i was right here is the rule:

* Books must be read between the 1st of November and the 31st of December inclusive. Books started before November may be used, but you will only earn points for pages read in November, and while books must be part of a series, you will not gain 'series' points for books started before November.
