Courtney | 16072 comments Also Jacquelyn do you want the couple spot? If not we can move Beatrice Hate Notes book to HELP description and you can take that spot. It all depends on what bonus will be easier to do (HELP or DIASTER)

Unless some one can find books for both I guess. I am just trying to make all the books count.

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I think disaster will be easier to get, but I can just stop listening to Wallbanger.

No you dont have to plus it has a 600 page edition. I have time to kill, and am determined to find a way to make it work lol

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Ok 😂


message 505: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments Or we can move The Diviners (The Diviners, #1) by Libba Bray to 8 with this copy La stella nera di New York by Libba Bray .

Put Crown of Midnight (Throne of Glass, #2) by Sarah J. Maas back to 22

Then Wallbanger (Cocktail, #1) by Alice Clayton to 52.

It seems like we are going to lose a bonus regardless, but we nees to figure out which bonus will be the hardest to do.

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I’m at home sick with congestion and a migraine. I won’t be able to read much today.

I think help is the hardest bonus


message 507: by Courtney (last edited Mar 19, 2019 03:01PM) (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments Thats okay! Concentrate on feeling better.

Yeah I agree. I looked up books for "HELP" and "DIASTER" and didnt find anything. I can do Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Harry Potter, #7) by J.K. Rowling for the death category if no one else has a book for it. It gives us the bonus and I have been wanting to do a reread for it anyways.


message 508: by Beatrice (new)

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) Hey guys I finished two poetry books.

I have Asylum (Asylum, #1) by Madeleine Roux from Jacquelyns DNF list if you cant find one ready I just need to finish my current books.

Edit: Its not on the top of my TBR so if you find something take it.

Courtney | 16072 comments Beatrice wrote: "Hey guys I finished two poetry books."

Are they at least 300 pages? Thats the only way they can count. If they are I can find a place for them.


message 512: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments I am hoping that I can finish my current 3 books on the board by tomorrow afternoon.


message 513: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments Shae here is my DNF shelf:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...


message 514: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments I fell asleep early last nighy and didnt get the reading I wanted to in :(


message 515: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments Thanks Courtney, I’ve done a friend request as I couldn’t see your shelf. I’m pretty sure I read new moon within the year so it wouldn’t count :(


message 516: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments Yes just checked, June 2018 for new moon :( I’ll check out your shelf once we are friends 👍🏼


message 517: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments Added. I didnt realize it was private.


message 518: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments I also found two short physical's that will work for the Fire description and the Out description. I have only 3 chapters of Fallen left, and hope to finish that today if this headache every goes away. I also need to do Hold Me Close today before I lose it.


message 519: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments Ok I got The Lying Game (The Lying Game, #1) by Sara Shepard on audio so I can do that after emergency contact. I’ll see if anyone wants to be a buddy, but I might not get one. But at least it fills the category.

I’m 21% done with emergency contact
50% done with fallen too far
3% into rhapsodic

I’ve finished my work week so hopefully I’ll read a lot more over the next few days :)


message 520: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments I just finished Fallen Too Far (Rosemary Beach, #1; Too Far, #1) by Abbi Glines . I am hoping to get Hold Me Close down before it expires. If not at least it is an easy description to fill.

Okay Sarah says we can do that, but they both have to be for the same description.

message 527: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments Okay :) Cool once that one is posted we only need number 8 posted and we will have one part completed :)


message 528: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments Yay! I’m excited to finish some parts 👍🏼

How’s everyone going? Do you all think you can finish the books you have in the descriptions?

Just finished fallen too far. Will read more rhapsodic tonight 👍🏼


message 529: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments I just finished Hold Me Close. Should have the review up soon. I am still only 7% into Wrath of the Dragon King, but its an audiobook so I can catch up on that one fast. I will be starting Out of the Ashes soon. Then going to Into the Fire. I am sure I will have to find another audiobook sometime tomorrow.

Beatrice (beatricemasalunga) I'm done with The Kiss Thief


message 531: by Alex (last edited Mar 21, 2019 01:52PM) (new)

Alex (lovingthevillain) | 136 comments Hi guys, I‘m still reading 4 or 5 books currently. I‘m feeling a reading slump coming so I just try to find a book that I can‘t put away...

Anyways I decided to put Six of Crows away (although it‘s really good!) and read Warrior of the Wild instead. It counts for the same number but we still don‘t get the bonus points.

Is the first post with our TBRs and the Descriptions still up to date? Because I‘m a bit confused now...

Okay. I will switch the books out. Its okay about the bonus points. Some of them are hard. The list is up to date. Whats confusing you? Maybe I can fix it so its not so confusing. I am up to suggestions.

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments Thanks for that Courtney :)


Is everyone still getting to those books that are listed above?

I’m currently 50% done with emergency contact, which is now not a buddy read as my friend who I was buddying with can’t do it until they flip the board, so I’m just powering through it. Then my audio after will be the dnf one.

I’m also 20% into rhapsodic, once I finish that, I have a book I can use for tagged death, but just not the bonus. So I won’t take the spot until I’m finished rhapsodic so I don’t take that option away yet


message 535: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I’ve already read The Girls in the Garden by Lisa Jewell I just have to write a review and post it. I forgot about it.
I’m 93% through Matched by Ally Condie .
I’m 68% through The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air, #2) by Holly Black and 41% through Poison Study (Study, #1) by Maria V. Snyder . I’m also 63% done with Wallbanger (Cocktail, #1) by Alice Clayton . Matched is my only physical besides Butterfly Kisses, so I’ll get through the audios quickly.

I’m planning on reading Butterfly Kisses (Detective Damien Drake #1) by Patrick Logan last, but if someone finds a book that matches this description, I’d be willing to give it up. I’m planning on reading it, I’m just trying to get through all of these fantasies first.


message 536: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Jk, just finished Matched by Ally Condie .


message 537: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments Awesome Jackie.

Do you think that your matched would work for this category

47. Read a book which has a dress on the cover.
(+5 bonus points if your chosen book has a big white ballgown on the cover.)

With the bonus using this cover Die Auswahl by Ally Condie


I just stumbled along it when I was looking for books with gowns on them and this book came up. I thought if it did work, we can get the bonus for that category, and two hands on the cover is a bit easier too


message 538: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Oh, idk! To me it looks bluish, but I can ask... I just posted it though.

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments Jacquelyn wrote: "Oh, idk! To me it looks bluish, but I can ask... I just posted it though."

Maybe put in the post to use that cover for the ballgown description with bonus and if it doesn’t work we will put it back to the two hands on the cover?

As it’s worth trying for the bonus and harder description 👍🏼


message 540: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments I was just on a ball gown goodreads list haha and stumbled on it and thought it looked like a white dress


message 541: by Jacquelyn (last edited Mar 21, 2019 10:20PM) (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Ok, well I asked about it to be sure, but just in case it works, I’ll change the description on my post. Of it doesn’t count, I’ll change it back, like you said. 👍🏻


message 542: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments There’s this cover too which may look more whiter? But I think it is white, just the reflection off the glass ball gives it that cooler tone.

Die Auswahl (Cassia & Ky, #1) by Ally Condie


message 543: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I’ve just seen Sarah be really picky with it, but we’ll see. 🤷🏻‍♀️


message 544: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I updated the description


message 545: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments I have sucked butt today, and not read anything :( I am hoping tomorrow will be better for me. I believe I only got three books up there. I can still do HP #7 for the bonus if no one gets to it before I finish my current audio ( Wrath of the Dragon King (Dragonwatch, #2) by Brandon Mull ), but its long so it would probably be my last book.

I keep the books on the list as not finished until they are posted so I will go look at the review thread and update now and when Sarah gets back about Matched. It looks white to me as well so fingers crossed.


message 546: by Courtney (last edited Mar 22, 2019 09:54PM) (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments We are so close to finishing some of these parts!!!! This is excluding Matched for now.

So far we've completed:

Part 1: 9/10
Part 2: 9/10
Part 3: 6/10
Part 4: 5/10
Part 5: 7/10
Part 6: 8/10
Part 7: 6/10

* This ONLY includes the books that have been posted.*


message 547: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16072 comments Beatrice has 2 out of her 3 books started and Alexia has 3 out of her 4 books started. So at this point I think they are on track. Hopefully we can complete the first board this month.


message 548: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6964 comments @courtney I found a really quick audio Pod Racer (Level Up) by R. T. Martin it’s 2 hours, if you can get it (or anyone) do you want to buddy it for the start with p and d in title? Obviously we don’t get the bonuses for those, but at this stage I think we are just trying to flip and finish sections right? It’s 112 pages, so 2 points for buddy each, but then fills two descriptions that no one has books on, or mentioned that they had books for. Just a suggestion :)

Overdrive doesnt have it. I recommended it, so if it is added to the collection I will let you know.


message 550: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Awesome!!

I’ll be finishing The Wicked King today as well.
