The only way I would be hesitant to say yes is, if I had wheel spin of 50 and then had to give up my points. :p

Wasn't my book switched to the 'E'?
I have changed it in my review post, could you maybe change it in the spreadsheet? I am on my phone right now. :)
Sounds good, we are racing through our first book letters! I hope I finish my book tommorow which should work for L!
Ok just posted for s. I didn’t update ss etc until I was finished just in case Sarah did the spin and we decided to keep your book in place. I’ll have a look and see if I have anything for U and I :)
I just started
which can work for I if I finish it in time, but it also has lots of letters so will work for one of the other boards if someone does something before me. It’s the Group Buddy Read :)
Well guys I am feeling really bummed and unmotivated now.Both of my books got rejected for the letters, apparently the Magisterium series is a middle grade series. (I never looked it up since I just assumed it was Young Adult because it revolved a lot around death and stuff, stupid mistake from my part)
Also, my book Elevation got rejected because some versions apparently have an illustrator listed, I figured since the version I used for page count didn't have an illustrator listed and it was 200+ pages is would be fine. But I guess not. :(
So the letters 'T' and 'E' are avaliable again and I have gotten us 0 letters so far! Great...
@Shae you could use the perfect mother for our first board now :).
@eva Luna - don’t worry, these things happen. And Alaina is right, just enjoy your books that’s the main thing :) @Alaina- thanks for posting my book! And sounds good about all your plans. Don’t worry about fitting in the comments/ reviews if you don’t get a chance tonight, no rush as you will get to them eventually.
My update is I’m 30% through
I have work for the next few days, but I have two free periods off teaching today, and I’m about to go on maternity leave mid way through next week. So I kind of haven’t been using my free periods to actually do any school stuff, as I don’t have much to plan for haha so I’ll listen to my audio today for those two hours 👍🏼
Thanks :) That’s exciting that you’ve got your Dads 60th! Will be good to spend that time with your family!
@Eva Luna I'm so sorry about the Elevation thing! Sarah tried to notify me, but I never saw her comment. I feel responsible since I suggested the book :((((((((
Thanks guys for being so sweet!Because of my books being rejected I decided to just read all night, last night and finished
. It was a buddy read, so this should bring us some points! :)I added it to the Spreadsheet for the letter 'L' for our first book.

I don't blame you. I have learned Goodreads isn't alway right haha. I just assumed that it was okay since I found a version which has 200 pages ánd did not have an illustrator listed. (Even before I started reading). But apperently Goodreads isn't always complete. :P
I mean you are worse off, you hated the book! At least I still liked it haha

That's so exciting, I hope you are going to have lots of fun! Early congratz on his 60th!
@Shae That's a really good use of your free periods! :P
I am 25% into
. I will hopefully finish it tommorow, I put on the spreadsheet for the second prompt. (It's a BR.)I'm going to start
and
today. I haven't put these in the Spreadsheet yet because i'm not sure yet how long they will take. (pretty big books. Around 600/700 pages each. Both are BR) I'll put them in as soon as I get a feel about them.
@eva Luna if you finish your I book before me you can use for board 1 :)
Shae wrote: "@eva Luna if you finish your I book before me you can use for board 1 :)"When do you think you''ll be finished? :)
Well my current read has E as well as I.I am not sure how far Shae is with her book, but that works for I, and then I can use my book for the E.
I'll just focus on
today and make sure I'll finish it quickly. :)
No just use it for my spot! that means I don't have to hurry haha!
I changed my book back to the second prompt! I am feeling tired so I prefer not having to finish it quickly. :P
Finished my I book, so will post it now :) I am planning on starting
which will work for R, A or T. But I will chat back when Im neally done so i don't claim any letters beforehand. I am sure there will be one of those letters on the next couple of boards so it will count somewhere :)

Yes we can shuffle but only for the board we are completing, which is handy to know as it limits it a little.
We can do this! :D
Yay good job team! :DI am 80% into Ember in the Ashes now, so I will finish it today during work. (Audiobook!)
Just posted my review for Ember in the Ashes for the letter 'I'.It's a 600+ page book and a BR so that help with points, hopefully it will also get a good spin because this book has a lot of 'I' haha!
I am 40% into 'The Outsider', I put it in the Spreadsheet for the letter 'O'.I'll be going to a music festival from tommorow until sunday, I'll be reading but I don't know how good the internet will work! So I might not be on Goodreads too much. ^.^

YES. Please move it, might get me some new points. :')
I also work from home today!You can move around both my books around as much as you want! :)
You're totally right, I should also do laundry. :')WFH and laundry days always work perfectly together for me.
My current audio will work for R :) hoping to finish it today! That’s great you both get to work from home.
And how exciting your going to a music festival Eva Luna! What one??
If we can move an ember in the ashes to E, my next audio will count for A, which I should finish in the next two days
Ok awesome! I’ll be finished reboot in a few hours, and then I’ll start the next audio
which I should be finished by tomorrow and will cover A. It’s a buddy.
I’ve put reboot and two can keep a secret into the ss :)
@Shae I'm going to a (smaller) pop festival in Haldern! This is the 11th year I am going, I have been going since I am 13 years old with my dad. (every year!) It's something that we do together every year! This is the first year we are taking someone extra with us!
None of the books I brought with me work for those letters. :(
Oh that sounds like fun!! Enjoy it :) I have a quick audio I can do for D once I am done with two can keep a secret. I’m 30% through and am planning to read a lot more tonight.
Well first gotta finish the Outsider, it's a big boy haha
I am at 370 of 560 but currently reading!
I’m a bit confused with which board your s is for Charis? I think the s for the current board is already completed going off the spreadsheet. Are you meaning it for board 3?
Finished
and posted for A. Will start
for D, which I’ll have finished by tomorrow at the latest :) I’ll add to the ss
Has anyone got a U book? Or should I try and find one?
I'm on page 510 from the 560 now. (the Outsider.)
Alaina wrote: "I actually have two audios that work for those letters. They aren’t brs though"I didn’t see the Y book too 😝 ok if your happy to do them, then great. But otherwise I can find something. If you are happy I might do the second book in reboot series as it’s due back in 2 days, it will work for R, T or A which I’m sure will be on one of the next boards
I've finished my second book a few days ago. I'll write the review today. I'm just so busy right now, with work and personal stuff, I haven't been able to read as much as I've planned. Hopefully that changes in the near future.
What is your new book? I’ll have a look for you where it can fit. I hope everything is ok :) don’t worry about us. Hope your busy ness settles soon for you xx

I think Alaina looked and we'll have to use it on the 3rd one? Idk. It's The Crow’s Murder
I'm hoping to listen to DEV1AT3 this weekend while I dog sit.
