Thanks. ^-^ Have fun this month. ^-^
Hello, thank you Anna!This is the spreadsheet I'm working on:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
- Everything with a tick on the right side means that I should have at least 1 book that will satisfy the criteria. (There's only a few that I absolutely can't find anything for)
- The ones with a tick under 'Bonus' means that I have a book that satisfies the bonus criteria.
- Blue text means that I can maybe get a hold of that book, but it might be difficult.
- Text in gray are notes, btw feel free to list any books that you guys have given up for No. 25.
- Book titles under 'Book Details' are just my notes for possible reads, it's incomplete.
- The 'Want to Read' column are the specific books I've picked out that fit the criteria and I am keen to read, also incomplete.
- The books highlighted in yellow are the ones that I would especially love to read in March.
I'm going to aim for reading 15 books during the challenge but I can only 100% guarantee that I will read at least 12.
For the n.25 (the given up books), one of us has to read a book someone on the team didn't finish (dnf), right? Or does it mean something else?
If that's the case, I have a DNF shelf you can check out :) https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

I just saw that Ashleigh has
as "dnf". I wanted to listen to the audiobook of that one so I can take that category unless one of you guys want it.
Claire, I can't write on the spreadsheet :S
Kelly wrote: "Claire, I can't write on the spreadsheet :S"I think it might be Claire's personal ss she's been using, I think we have to make a group one :)
Ok, here's one. Let me know if you can access it / change it.https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
Oh yes I wasn't clear, those are just my notes, I used the spreadsheet because it had all the info in it already.I gotta go to sleep but I'll be back in like 8ish hours!
This spreadsheet sucks. I'm letting you all know now that between March 1-3 I will be doing:#7 - Man on the cover. -
#49 - Couple/2 people on the cover. -
#65 - Romance novel. -
( I will get the +5 for this book.)

I added a few books to the spreadsheet but if any of you want the categories I put mine in, you can change them. Just let me know. I'm not really picky to the books I'm going to read and I can always find something else.
I'll update this later. I didn't realize there was more tabs.

I actually think it's awesome. Everything's there
I just love spreadsheets in general :DI'm happy to do the bonus for either/both of the time sensitive ones (10 and 20).
March 1st 12am PST is at 7pm for me so I'll have all Friday evening to do that one, and I can definitely finish a book in 9 hours on a weekend.
I put my name down for 20 since it's easier but I'm happy to switch to 10 if anyone wants!
That's my goal of 15 on the board now :D
Oof, I just realised that my book for No. 70 is only worth 1 point. If someone has a better choice then please feel free to swap with me!The rule for illustrations is so harsh, the illustrations only take up like 10-15 pages total 😭
I've added 15 books to the spreadsheet.
Oh right Skye you wanted to buddy read Soulless right? I'm using it for 18, you could use it for 45 or something? My copy will be here in the next few days so we can start it whenever in March works for you :D
Also, even if we can't find a place for a book in the first round, we can always put in the second one! :)

Do you want to say the 3rd?Just off the top of my head :)
Sounds good to me!I think I'll chuck the rest of my reading list onto the thread, might as well.
Hi everyone, didn't realise the teams were up haha!
I'm a very poor planner. I just read what I get my hands on :D I just added 2-3 books randomly. I'll do some research and post everything I want to read in a couple of days

38. The Goblin King warns Hoggle that if he disobeys, he'll drop him into the Bog of Eternal Stench, and he'll do the same if Sarah ever kisses him.
- No kissing allowed! Read a book which is not tagged 'romance' (at all).
EDIT: As long as your book is not tagged 'romance' on the first 10 pages of tags, we will count it ☺
Hey guys, does anyone want to do No. 70? My book is only worth 1 point despite being 300 pages with like 10 pages of illustrations so I kinda cbf.I was thinking of changing to:
1. The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer
or
26. The Assassin's Blade
or
41. Shadow and Bone
Depending on what books you guys end up picking.
Also I might switch Cress to No.3 if Cinder counts as a main character in that book since then I can get the bonus points.

So... since Ashleigh isn't on our team anymore... my book for the 'given up' category doesn't work :/ (It was Slayer)
I have a few suggestions for the dnf if anyone likes the sound of any of these xD
I might end up DNFing
and
. I've been "currently reading" them for so long... They're just so slow :/
Wish I could help but I haven't DNF'd any books since my high school designated reading. I'm a bit of a completionist.
Claire wrote: "Wish I could help but I haven't DNF'd any books since my high school designated reading. I'm a bit of a completionist."I know your feel. Even the books I have technically "DNFed" I wrote down where I was and plan on continuing.
Anyhow, I'll read
for the DNFed prompt.Also, can you all post yoru suggestions on the possibility sheet in the excel file? 'cause I kinda bookmarked that sheet and don't read much here haha
Hi team! Excited to start :) Just wanted to add that you can feel free to move my stuff around on the spreadsheet as I'm definitely being overly ambitious with my reading. Just let me know on this chat that you've done so :)
Less than 6 hours to go! I'm finishing off my final book for the Feb challenge right now and then immediately gonna get started on this one :D
For all but one of my picks I have a BR and/or get bonus points, so I'd rather not move those around.If anyone else wants No. 48 in particular though, feel free to switch with me, but do tell me first please!
It has begun!I'm starting with
for No. 5 :D
First book (the one that had to be finished by 13:00 PST) read and posted :) I have a couple reads from last month to finish for page points.
Amazing job Skye!I have the whole day off tomorrow so I'll either finish off Crown of Midnight or do the read a book in 9 hours and 23 minutes.
