I'm going to make a list here and take them off as I read them. Keep me motivated since you guys can see where I'm at. (I'm including some DEC books in case I don't get to them.)ARCS
BRS (Not including ARCs)
Finish 2018 (Although at this point I will never get to these)
NEW BOOKS
I literally just got where the pics and names come from. It's the game Guess Who!
New link for the mods challenge SS. Just copied the old one since I'm sharing the format with others. Wanted to make sure we still had ours. I took the names out temporarily to show others but I'm adding them back in now.https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

Good luck! I hope we both do better with our BRs and committed categories than we did for cards against humanities. Although I am committing to fewer brs. I still have a lot though.
Ir I can get though all my BRS, picks and Rolled TBR I have to average a book every other day.. I doubt it but we shall see. I will be very happy with a book every 3 days.

I've decided to take up cross stitch. I'm hoping I can do that and listen to my audiobook. Just getting the hang of it first and then I'll try to listen to my audiobook. :)
SS is viewable only or do I have the wrong link? Can add:
Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Pages: 266
Can add: 27. Read a book about a morally grey character.
Book, you said you know the mods really well so message or let me know whom I should guess. :)
Sorry Jamie thought I had shared the right link. This one should be editable now - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
Mmm. That one is a harder one. I'm not 100% sure. Could be any of them. Best guess is Felicia or Alaina.
I finished a book yesterday but I don't think I posted it here. Problem with having a lot of challenges at once. I think it only counts for page points though. Maybe not even that but I'm going to try.
So the ones I'm struggling with are 23. Read a book that has a movie/tv adaptation for Marie's book
27. Read a book about a morally grey character for Jamie's book
41. Read a book that takes place in Europe for Marie's book
Nothing jumps out at me about Andrea, Alaina or Felicia about these ones. I am 90% certain about the ones I have guessed though.
I'm done chapter 1 of Harry Potter. I think one chapter every two-three days will keep me up to date.I'm also currently reading two books. I'm only about a chapter or so in both
I am working on
and about to start
but don't know where to put it. Bookbuyer you originally gave me movie adaptation but Marie posted on that so now I have no clue.
Anna 'Bookbuyer' call me bookbuyer. ^-^ wrote: "For The Book Thief?"Not sure. YOu gave me Adventure, Dark,adaptation and rainbow cover. Dark was for We have always Lived in the Castle. Rainbow was for The Shack. SO trying to figure out what you meant for the other two back on the first page.
I think the dog book was adventure and the book thief was for movie. I can't remember now lol.I'm trying to figure out where I can put it. I want to put it in loves to read but my other book is hard to find a new spot for.
It'll work for #3. Should have seen it a while ago. -.-

I took the #3
Don't forget that if we can't find a new spot, we can repeat them. :) Just in case we need to if a book ever can't fit a new one.
True. I want those bonus points though!

It is why I ask. Time is still short for me to stop and figure out where to use things easily. Crazy work. We went straight from holidays to inventory prep. And at home we are preparing to do a small remodel on our kitchen.

I have a book for MPG Paranormal Romance. Finding a spot for the book I'm almost done. :)
29. Read a book where the MC has a form of magicI'll have these two done sometime in the next couple of days. I'm in a reading mood and not a reviewing mood. These are also BR so that ads to the time I need to take to get these posted.

So I have like 4 reviews to post. So my goal is to post one a day until the end of the challenge. I'll see if I manage that. lol.
I just posted my last reviews. As a general rule I was not happy with this team. It was really on the two of us in the end which is not a team.
I do appreciate how much you read Marie. Thank you. You were a good participant. I'm just mad in general. -.-
