Shae Petersen | 6965 comments Does anyone know how we can find tags? Like if I wanted to find books tagged as something?

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I just posted my second review and I’m working on The Kiss Thief by L.J. Shen . So far, all have been BR’s. I’m just getting over a migraine.

Alex (lovingthevillain) | 136 comments Hi guys, I started Three Dark Crowns in February and have about 200 / 300 pages left. Would we get page points if I read the rest?

Yes if it’s like other challenges you would, just won’t fit a description. I think I read something in the rules that each person could only have so many of those a month (not sure of exact number, maybe 4-8?). Definitely finish your book :)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Btw Nevernight is on my DNF list, if anyone is interested in that book.


message 356: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I just finished The Kiss Thief by L.J. Shen (br) I still need to update more on the br thread and write a review.
I’m not sure yet what my next book will be. 🤔

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I have my next br starting tomorrow for Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus


message 358: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments Hey everyone sorry I have been quit, the last two days have been busy. I am hoping to start Our Dark Duet (Monsters of Verity, #2) by Victoria Schwab tonight, but if not it will be tomorrow for sure.

Are you and Shae not going to do The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air, #2) by Holly Black ?


message 360: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments We are! When I posted that, I forgot about the WK br because it wasn’t in my calendar.

Oh okay :)


message 362: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6965 comments Go for your buddy tomorrow two can keep a secret if it’s got a spot already? As I wang to finish Falling Kingdoms before I delve into wicked king. I haven’t read much the last few days, I’ve had the worst migraine and morning sickness, I had to have today off work and I’m having tomorrow off too. Hopefully it goes enough that I can concentrate on my audio


message 363: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6965 comments I just finished son, so will pick up another audio.

My next audio is a buddy and it fits the bonus for tagged magic and dance, can we find another spot for Jackie’s wicked king?

I also found a book that is tagged junk.


I propose that maybe we only have our currently reading books and a few that we are next to read in the list, that way it frees up descriptions when we are needing to do quick swaps etc. as our aim is to flip the board right? And finish up parts to get bonus points? What’s everyone’s thoughts on that? I just think it starts to get hard finding spots for books to move around if there’s heaps filled with books planned for the whole month, when hopefully we will flip the board if more are free and available for us to be reading more.


message 364: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments Hi girls! I had some problems and I don't have an internet connection at the moment, so I can't take part in the challenge anymore. At the moment I am using the connection of a friend but I can't count on it, so I am writing a message to Sarah and ask her to remove me from the challenge... I am really sorry!
Enjoy yourselves and have a good time with the challenge!


message 365: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90985 comments Mod
Hello Team Worm, just to confirm that Sibil has had to pull out of the challenge. I'll leave her points and crossed off descriptions for now, but depending on how things go we may need to look for a replacement ☺


message 366: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I’m sorry to see you go Sibil. 😞
I hope you have a good month!


message 367: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments If anyone wants any of my descriptions, feel free to take them!
(Or clear them) I just can’t stick to a tbr, I’m too much of a mood reader. 😞 I’m sorry.
With that being said, I’m currently reading And the Trees Crept In by Dawn Kurtagich for #44 (+bonus)


message 368: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments Im okay with removing the books especially considering how I have been reading. I have to start a couple today. These weekend messed with my reading plans. What are the two book you need added Shae. The junk spot is yours, and I can find somewhere for Jacquelyns other book as well.

Okay thats added. Would you be okay moving Wicked King to the jewelry one or do you still plan on reading that book?


message 370: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I’m still planning on reading The Wicked King


message 371: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments Jacquelyn wrote: "I’m still planning on reading The Wicked King"

I know. I was seeing if it can take spot 26, but I just checked and its your The Kiss Thief by L.J. Shen . I believe you said you are reading that so I will find somewhere else for Wicked King.


message 372: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments I think for The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air, #2) by Holly Black I will give you spot 28 so you can do a bonus, and I will move my book to 62 or 68. I rather do 68 because it is a harder description to find, but if you still wanna read Butterfly Kisses (Detective Damien Drake #1) by Patrick Logan I will do spot 62.


message 373: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments P.s. I am going to keep the books up until we hear from Alexia and Beatrice, but they both said they are okay with us moving books around for bonuses. I have taken my books off that I dont plan on reading in the next 2 to 3 days.


message 374: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Ok! That’s fine.

Im hoping to get to Butterfly Kisses (Detective Damien Drake #1) by Patrick Logan soon, mainly because I’m friends with the author. You can take that spot if you’d like, but I’d really like to at least read one of his books. Either Butterfly Kisses (Detective Damien Drake #1) by Patrick Logan or Frozen Stiff (Chase Adams #1) by Patrick Logan


message 376: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments I’ve already read The Kiss Thief by L.J. Shen I just haven’t posted it yet


message 377: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Frozen Stiff (Chase Adams #1) by Patrick Logan can work for the tree one, but I have And the Trees Crept In by Dawn Kurtagich which would get bonus.


message 378: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments If we can’t figure it out, I can move my small tbr around

Courtney | 16073 comments Jacquelyn wrote: "Frozen Stiff (Chase Adams #1) by Patrick Logan can work for the tree one, but I have And the Trees Crept In by Dawn Kurtagich which would get bonus."

I have the bonus accouted for already with And the Trees Crept In. You can do Butterfly kisses. I just know that one is harder to cover. I will take 62 for the book so you can get the bonus for Wicked King :)

Okay. I forgot that was the book you choose for that.

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Thanks Courtney!


message 382: by Courtney (last edited Mar 18, 2019 11:10PM) (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments So far we've completed:

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

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


message 383: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments After I finish my current four on the board I will see what books I have that can go for part one if someone hasnt finished them or picked a book by then. That way we can get those completion points.


message 384: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments Also the other teams are catching up so I am going to try to finish either Our Dark Duet (Monsters of Verity, #2) by Victoria Schwab or The Ship of the Dead (Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, #3) by Rick Riordan . Both would be nice, but that is very unlikely.


message 385: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6965 comments Awesome, we will see what the others say. I juts think if we all only have our currently reading and the next few days books it will free up descriptions to be moving around for bonuses.

My current br audio is Magic Steps (The Circle Opens, #1) by Tamora Pierce which is the one that fits for magic and dance description.

The junk one is Fallen Too Far (Rosemary Beach, #1; Too Far, #1) by Abbi Glines which isn’t a br but covers bonus. I’m 20% through that.

So if I can just have these books on the board for now that would be great:

51. Fallen Too Far (Rosemary Beach, #1; Too Far, #1) by Abbi Glines
48. Falling Kingdoms (Falling Kingdoms, #1) by Morgan Rhodes
19. Magic Steps (The Circle Opens, #1) by Tamora Pierce
3. The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air, #2) by Holly Black

I always have an audio, ebook and physical on the run 😝 once I finish my ebook falling kingdoms I’ll move to wicked king. But I usually read my physical in the daylight if I get a chance. And as for the audio (magic steps) I will pick up another audio that fits a hard description.


message 386: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6965 comments Sorry to see you go Sibil, but totally understand! Hopefully see you in the next few months :)


message 387: by Shae (new)

Shae Petersen | 6965 comments Jackie maybe say the books your definitely reading now and the next few days and that way it’s easier to know which descriptions your talking about that people can take. They can just be freed up so everyone knows when they look at the first page.


Also I will post son review today


message 388: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments Okay. I think I have everything updated please let me know if somethings wrong. I still havent started reading. My daughter is fighting nap time today.

How old is your daughter? I remember my son doing that! He is 2.5, he has one nap a day now. I work 3 days a week so only have the other 4 to get him to have his nap. That’s my reading time, when he doesn’t sleep it’s devastating haha plus he gets cranky :P I’m hanging on to that one day nap for as long as I can 😝 we are expecting another one in September. I’m worried that my son will have grown out of his day nap by then and I won’t ever have any time again haha

She will be one on Saturday :( So obviously I woby get very much reading in. She takes a couple naps a day right now. Unless she is teething then she sleeps all day. Also Congrats on the new baby :)

Also she is finally asleep so I will be starting the ship bonus first because overdrive is going to take it away in five days. Lol


message 391: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments Figures I get her to sleep and get a headache :( Grr! I am going to try to get rid of it then jump into the books....hopefully

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments @Shae, I did say the books I’m planning on reading. I said she could clear the others.

I must have missed that post.
Do you just want to keep And the Trees Crept In by Dawn Kurtagich , The Wicked King (The Folk of the Air, #2) by Holly Black , Butterfly Kisses (Detective Damien Drake #1) by Patrick Logan , and The Kiss Thief by L.J. Shen ?


message 394: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn Simon (jacquelynrose94) | 2166 comments Yeah, those and I just finished Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus (it’s a br) I forgot to find a place for it I think. 😬 if we don’t have a spot I’ll make up for it


message 395: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16073 comments I just picked up a buddy read for #27 with the bonus thats starts tomorrow. So I am still being somewhat active. Lol

Okay. I will find a place now. I have a headache so at least doing this I can help some how.

Awww 1! That’s such a sweet age :)

Also I saw your reading beware the stranger, my friend just got the audio and was keen for it. I thought I might do it as next audio as it fits for two bonuses
