message 101: by Laura (new)

Laura | 1313 comments It looks like we are close to finishing the first board!


message 102: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments Finished one of the books on the first board! I’ll write a quick review of it and post it tomorrow! I also finished another one for page points


message 103: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments Oh wait whoops I forgot I switched that book for a different letter with Slytherpuff 🤣 Ah well I still finished a book and can go on to the next one!


message 104: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments Hey Krystal! The Cruel Prince is available to me now! I’m going to be starting it tomorrow if you want to start soon too!


message 105: by Krystal (new)

Krystal Ayers | 5691 comments Yay! I’ll probably start Tuesday, we still have 9 hours to go to get to California and we are stopping at the Grand Canyon tomorrow.


message 106: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments Hey guys, if anybody wants a G, please feel free to trade. I'm not sure what to read for it soon enough 😂


message 107: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments Drive safely! And have fun at the Grand Canyon!


message 108: by [deleted user] (new)

Have fun! I just finished the Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver. Would anyone be willing to let me use their space?

Need to write reviews for this book and one for page points

Which letter would you wanna trade? :)


message 110: by [deleted user] (new)

This book isn’t on the spreadsheet yet.


message 111: by [deleted user] (new)

B seems like the best one.


message 112: by Maria (new)

Maria (mariasaleem) | 882 comments Oh, I don't have a B


message 113: by [deleted user] (new)

I need to steal someone’s letter as my book won’t fit in any empty spots. I can wait a puzzle or two if needed


message 114: by Fuzaila (last edited Aug 13, 2019 07:11AM) (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments Hey Slytherpuff (mind telling us your name? ;) Ally hasn't updated in some time and her feed says she isn't reading Circe yet, so maybe Gabi can switch from B to C for which she is reading The Cruel Prince. Then B would be available for you to put in A Poisonwood Bible. I hope that made sense?

We can always make spots for books that aren't started yet later, since as a team, I think our main priority should be to finish the boards :)


message 115: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments Also, guys, if anybody has a letter G in their current read, feel free to switch with mine. I haven't started my book for the letter yet.


message 116: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments We’re almost finished with the first board. After that, we’ll be given another board to use, and we’ll have more letters to work with!


message 117: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments Oh, I like that idea Fuzaila! I’ll message Ally now


message 118: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments Gabi wrote: "Oh, I like that idea Fuzaila! I’ll message Ally now"

Sure Gabi, I'm not sure she'd be available though. She has three unclaimed letters on the board.

No worries Fuzaila!


message 120: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments Hey guys! I'm going dropout! I messaged Sarah, but I wanted to let you guys know before I left. I usually join Fun teams since I'm a slower reader, and I've been really looking forward to the books I have planned this month, so I don't want to rush through them. I'll clear up my name on the board so you guys can have the letters!

Good luck with the challenge, y'all! And Happy 7th Anniversary of the YA Buddy Readers' Corner!

It's no pressure Gabi :) We all can read at our own pace without worrying. You don't have to leave because of the team. After all, fun teams are for fun. The winners don't get a prize or anything like the medium and serious teams :) It's okay if you want to leave though. Enjoy your books xD


message 122: by Krystal (new)

Krystal Ayers | 5691 comments Totally agree, don’t feel pressured! Though the winners do get a prize like medium and serious, but it’s about having fun.

Oh, do they? I thought it was weird because the last time (we were on the same team?) our team won in Fun but we didn't get any prizes lol.


message 124: by [deleted user] (new)

Gabi, I’m also a slower reader. I usually get through 1-2 books a month. Feel free to stay if you want.


message 125: by Krystal (new)

Krystal Ayers | 5691 comments Hmm, I did get one. Maybe pm Sarah about it?


message 126: by Fuzaila (new)

Oh, I think it might be because you were on of the random winners :)

Exactly. I hope I didn't sound that serious about winning that you guys feel pressured. I barely read much myself :(


message 128: by Krystal (new)

Krystal Ayers | 5691 comments Ohhh. I used to do only solo so I thought if a team won the whole team got it.


message 129: by Gabi (new)

Gabi | 563 comments No worries guys! I’ll be here for next month’s challenge! It’s the Read Whatever You Want challenge so I’m super excited ;)

Yay, that's cool. Let's cross our fingers and hope to be on the same team then ;)


message 131: by Krystal (new)

Krystal Ayers | 5691 comments I thought Slytherpuff was using the B ?


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Sorry to hear that Gabi. Hopefully we'll see you next month.

For the gaps to get the first bored finished sooner I moved 2 off mine that were waiting to be posted. Almost there 3 more letters and the first one is done.


message 133: by [deleted user] (new)

Haven’t got around to writing reviews or posting yet


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Slytherpuff you can have b that's fine as the book works for a letter later on. I'll take it off that's fine.


message 135: by Mummy's Naughty Corner (last edited Aug 13, 2019 01:52PM) (new)

Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments There you go B is yours. I don't mind just got edger to post as I've read 7 books but haven't been able to get any up yet lol.


message 136: by Krystal (new)

Krystal Ayers | 5691 comments Makes sense, lol


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Has anyone heard from Ally? Just wondering if we could swap our letter N as I've got the letter N on the second board to get the first board finished?

I think it would be fine. She hasn't updated her feed for some time. We could switch her books for the next board if it fits. Feel free to take my slots.


message 139: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments I could use an O soon. And @slytherpuff only has to post the review for B right? Then only C and N would remain which are claimed by Ally.


message 140: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments I'm reading one with a C though, not sure how soon I'd finish.


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Ok guys if Laura swaps her finished c from the last board to the first board. Fuzaila takes the O and Slytherpuff posts the review for B we are done with the first bord and Ally's books can be used later.


message 142: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments Hey Mummy, I see you've finished Speak of the Devil by Shawna Romkey. Feel free to use that for the O, because I can trade my book for the A you've put it on for. Then there's just the C, for which Laura will have to post the review. And there's Slytherpuff's B. Then we're done :)

I didn't know you guys had read so may books outside of the first board lol.


message 143: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments Also, Mummy, you've already read a book that would go for C yourself 😅️


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Fuzaila I work in a school in the UK so I'm home with not a lot to do at the moment I don't usually read so many books.

I can swap was just going to get Laura the chance first. If she doesn't do it by tomorrow I'll do it so we can finish the first board.

I'll do O tomorrow too thanks.

It's great that you got so much time to read now. Classes only just started this month for me here, so it's quite the opposite :( Because I used to read a lot before.

All's good xD


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Yeah I've just noticed that I have 3 more weeks but I have a mountain of books I want to read lol.

I'll just have to remind myself if I don't go to work I don't get new books.

Ikr? That pile never goes down lol

Yup, that's a valid reason. That's what I keep telling myself - you want to buy your own books? Study this damn thing and get a job!

Yep unfortunately it does help. What are you studying?


message 149: by [deleted user] (new)

Great job! Only two more letters to complete the first board!
