New Beginnings is pulling far ahead. Happy New Year will have a bit of a tough time catching up if they don't soon. :/

Medium scores are pretty even even with two missing members. :)

YAY! We have a pretty lengthy lead. Although New Us isn't that far behind. Just a few big reviews and they will catch up. Poor team New Start isn't starting off strong but I'm sure that will change. It's still anyone's game at this point! ^-^

[Amanda Setasha]

My BRs start today so that'll be a nice bonus :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

We still have 2 spaces open on a medium team if anyone wants to swap or join ☺

[Amanda Setasha]

Hi Sarah, is that for 31 Days? Because we still have 2 that haven't checked in. :)

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

You guys are doing well for being down two! O.o

Yes, that's for 31 Days ☺

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

I'm surprised more people haven't jumped on that. O.O

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

You are doing very well! :)

[Amanda Setasha]

OH MAN 1 POINT.

[Abby]

Team Snowdrop thinks 31 Days doesn't need 2 more members. ;)

[Amanda Setasha]

We technically only have 3 people submitting reviews so I'm impressed either way. xD

[Jamie]

Yeah all medium teams have at least 1 person each team that has not reviewed yet. Hoping it is just a slow start to the New Year...

Agreed lol. j/k. Snowdrop can handle it I think :)

[Lara]

Can I swap from a fun team to a medium one? I've read books but haven't posted any reviews yet...

[Abi]

Can I go to a medium team as well? I'm reading more than I thought I would, and I think I'm a bit too competitive for a fun team, lol.

Hi Abi, I'm really sorry but I'm not going to be able to move you as you've already read more books than we'd expect someone in a medium team to read in the month. Maybe if you sign up for our February challenge (when it's up), you should consider going for a serious team? If you carry on reading at the same rate I think that could be a better fit for you ☺ For now, I'll have to leave you in your fun team though.

Is a place in medium still available ? I’ve already read more books than I thought I would. Wanted to know before posting my reviews :)

Hi Andréa, to be honest I wasn't going to fill the remaining spot on Team 31 Days as I think Lara is a stronger reader than the two missing members, and Team 31 Days are also doing pretty well as they are.

I have got to go through teams and message people who have checked in but not posted reviews though, so I may have some more spaces becoming available soon. Would you like me to put you on the waiting list for a medium team?

Thanks Sarah. It's ok. Don't worry about it. Just wanted to see if I was up for the challenge. I'm good with staying in my team :)

[Lara]

Does it have to be exactly 12 months for rereads to count, or is it okay if it's been about 11 and a half?
