message 51: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (last edited Mar 25, 2019 06:02PM) (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I just stress randomly. Right now it's about Ruby. Apparently puppy lady has been sending pics that haven't come through so she wants our cell #. But my brother is not happy about getting a dog and he has the only cell phone. :(

Right so he's being really rude and not giving it?? He sounds horrible right now.

Why does he have the only phone??


message 53: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Cause both my mom and a I don't have one. My mom has a real old time phone but I don't think we could get pictures from it.

Well hopefully he comes around!


message 57: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments He's not. :(

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Well that means you can't leave the puppy alone with him if he doesn't like it. Why doesn't he just give the phone number? It's not hard..

message 62: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments IKR?! And she's the front and center. Wish I got a face pic but I have a few of those. Not as many body shots. :)

What are you planning on reading next month Jenny? Did you see my list of things I could BR? Also if you have anything on KU I'd be keen, we'll need the points. It'll be super tough! I'll just have to take some other reads off, and I have no idea what I'd be able to take off, as I need to read basically all of those... Otherwise for each book I have left to read, I'll have to add another month to my ban. That's my new system. Each book that I've had longer than 4 months since I bought it and haven't read it, I add a month to my ban.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
I plan on reading ToG first two weeks of April, and then rest of the week I'm open. I know that's not really possibly to get all of those read in 2 weeks, even if I read all of my off days, but I'll try XD

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments How about we start the series on April 16?


message 73: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Oh yes I'm also planning on doing Insurgent, Allegiant and Four in April as well on audio, so I'll probably get them started on the 1st.


message 74: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Yeah that sounds good to me! Going in my diary now!


message 75: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
I just need it to be April already so I can try and get through this pile!

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments Do we have to request a thread?

message 80: by Rachel (new)

Rachel Gunter Maddison I can read Empire of Storms with you once you’re up to that book in the series 😊


message 81: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
@Rachel: Awesome! I'll be speeding through them that's for sure XD I'll definitely be keeping everyone updated though! That's what I'm good at

@Azrah: Yay more BRs :D We could actually kick up some good competition here!

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments How do you join the OWL readathon?

Here's all the necessary info: https://youtu.be/dk-wc72whn4
I hope you join!


message 84: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Yeah it's so great, and there'll be a follow-up readathon later in the year!

I can't wait to start next month's reads! More fierce competition! And I'll get to set up my TBR books along the back of my desk <3


message 85: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments I downloaded the OWL prompts and the career paths for the NEWTS. Do I just set up my own tracking somewhere to make sure I'm reading what I need to, or do I post it somewhere? That's what is confusing me.

The quidditch matches sound like fun, and the trivia occasionally. Just not sure where I find that. On twitter? YouTube?

Thanks for your help!


message 86: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
It's totally an individual thing Jenny, so you just track it yourself. I'm sure there'd be a GR group though, maybe research Bookroast's channel? Might find something.

I think Twitter, I'm just doing it for the reading though I think, not sure how the other stuff works.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
How's everyone feeling for April?


message 88: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments I'm psyched! But the year is flying by.


message 89: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Oh it definitely is! :o But it's been a great year so far <3


message 90: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments Do we have to set up a separate shelf for this challenge or no?


message 91: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Nope no shelves needed. Books just have to be read within the month of April if you want to get bonus points, otherwise if you've started them before April you can count what you've read in April for no bonus points.


message 92: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments Great! I am going to try and finish up any currently reading books by the end of March so I have a fresh start for my books here in April.


message 93: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Yes perfect :D Cannot wait!


message 94: by ✨ A ✨ (new)

✨ A ✨  (az_youread) | 50 comments Hey guys! I'm so pumped for April! I might have an audio and an ARC that I won't complete this month but I'll finish them in April.

What book will you all be starting the month with? I'm starting with Daisy Jones and the Six : )


message 95: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments I think I'm starting with Wonder Woman Warbringer (DC Icons, #1) by Leigh Bardugo


message 96: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
I'm starting with King of Scars, as well as continuing Heir of Fire (but should still get max points for that. There are no bonus letters in it anyway.


message 97: by Rachel (new)

Rachel Gunter I think I might start with The Princess and the Fangirl 😊


message 98: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53730 comments Mod
Sounds good! I have no idea how I'm going to do all of these books but I know I'll try! Sorry in advance if I let you guys down, they are all pretty big books.


message 99: by Jammin Jenny (new)

Jammin Jenny (jamminjenny) | 1721 comments Ditto Maddison!


message 100: by ✨ A ✨ (new)

✨ A ✨  (az_youread) | 50 comments @maddison Heir of fire is my favorite book of that series! It gets better everytime I read it 💜💜

I'm too am going to finish Uprooted in April, I won't be able to finish it this month.

I'm actually using May month as my ‘big book’ month. I won't be participating in the monthly challenge because in May it's Ramadan and I won't be as active on goodreads, it's a very busy month. But I still hope to get through as much huge books / books I've been avoiding in that May 😊
