Alright I'm home! I've read nothing so far, but tomorrow I'll get stuck in. Nice job with the reading guys!
Leipers have around 60 points or something, maybe even more, just a guess since last update. And Pandas have 4. So I'm not sure how things will pan out..

I'll be going with GR time zone for this challenge, so I have more time at the end. It's already the end of the 3rd here..
Starting with Red White and Royal Blue audio on Wednesday, it only counts page + BR points though as I've started it already. And I'm finishing off Queen of Shadows tomorrow, which doesn't count as it hasn't been more than a year since I read it, but I'll be slowly making my way through that series as well. I received Kingsbane today, which I really want to start, but will check my BRs once I finish Queen of Shadows!
Yeah were falling behind. I was at work all day, so I didnt get much reading in. I am still hoping to finish my book soon.
Sounds good! I may get Red White & Royal Blue done more tomorrow, but will see. I'd like to finish most of Queen of Shadows so I can get into other books.
I have to finish Red White and Royal Blue in 2 days' time, as that's when the loan expires. So I'll be listening tomorrow as well.
@Maddison I can BR Kingsbane with you if you don't have anyone else to buddyI was working on assignments and fell into the pit of youtube today so I will make sure that doesn't happen tomorrow lol
@Shar: Yes please sounds good! Not sure, haven't asked about it XD
Yeah I need to catch up on my YT as well, will watch more tomorrow, as well as read heaps and just catch up on life.

Yeah one of the teams has 60+ points now, while Pandas has 8. So we're on par with them. I'll get reading today, catch up from last month!
Find an audio and then turn YouTube sound off and subtitles on that way you can listen to an audio book while your watching YouTube videos lol!
I started on an audio but don't think I have the mental capacity to read a listen at the same time unfortunately hahaha
Oh I have to be doing something else while I’m listening to audio or else I get super bored. I painted a house the other day during one but most of the time I’m checking and returning emails or scrolling Facebook but I don’t have any problem reading bits here and there. I can’t read a book and listen to a different book at the same time though.
I can however watch a movie and read a book at the same time especially if it has any commercials lol. I get antsy during movies and a lot the time end up reading and watching at the same time lol.
Wow that's crazy XD I normally just audio in the car, or I'll play Candy Crush and listen if I need to get the book done.

! Just let me know when your ready to start it."We can start whenever. I might take a little longer with it cause I don't have the audio this time. Just let me know when you start and I will start then.

Okay. Wanna try for the 19th?
@Courtney: Yes I got Hard To Love, but couldn't find The Dating Proposal. I can read any of those Kendall Ryan books after Red White and Royal Blue. I should get that done tomorrow
I'm going to hopefully still finish Queen of Shadows tonight, and also start Game of Thrones.

I will set it up now.
Heres the thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Sounds good Courtney! Could you set the thread? I'm about to sleep I think. Also will we do King's Cage and War Storm after them?
Got 4% into Game of Thrones, which is 36 pages. I'm pretty proud of that. I've also currently read 20 pages today of Queen of Shadows, will smash more out now before I sleep.

Hi guys :) Managed to finish up one of my May reads and one BR. Will hopefully finish another BR and my last May read today too :) Bad news is that my May reads only count for page points and both my first BRs can only count for the same challenge as they are both rereads, though. I don't have any other reads scheduled for the rest of the month after these :)I think we're putting our immediate next reads into the planned page of the SS and transferring them onto the first page once they are started. At least that's what I've been doing so please tell me if I'm doing it wrong, haha!
@Maddie yeah I will make it now. I put all my reads on there,but can remove them if I need to. As for the Red Queen series we are started Glass Sword today.
I've got several more reviews to write and post unfortunately work is blowing me up. I'll get more done later but it might be much later. We have Gymnastics for 2 hours today sooo..

Courtney wrote: "Shouldnt we have 20 bonus points or do I not understand how we get the bonus points?"I thought so too, as we have completed four challenges for two different sections. Do we need to request to add the bonus points maybe?
I just checked another group's review thread and they have 20 bonus points so I think ours were maybe just missed off. I'll message our review thread and double check it with Sarah :)
Hey guys, just noticed that we only need to complete a Physical challenge in the Industrial section to get that checked off. I'm going to read Cruel Crown as it is only 200 pages (and a BR) so can fly through it quickly and we can have another section knocked off :)The only one we still need to complete is Futuristic then and we get a trip to the crystal maze!! Does anyone have any books that could fit for that section? I can complete any two of these books tomorrow:
King's Cage counts for either Physical, Mental or Skill
War Storm counts for either Physical or Skill
To Best the Boys counts for Physical
The Girl in Red counts for either Physical, Mental, Skill or Mystery.
Courtney wrote: "I can use
for Mystery if it helps. I am almost done with it."Awesome :) Hopefully we can complete all four sections by tomorrow. That is WAY faster than I thought we would :D
