Team Lavalicious Readers

[Sarah]

#2 is done. the secret garden. Ben weatherstaff is always crabby. can someone add it for me? I started it 9/25 and finished last night.

[Zuza]

I won't be able to read a book for #7 because I never get past book 3 in series. I am also trying to find a book for #10, but haven't found one yet.

[Zuza]

We should also decide if after finishing the 10 tasks we want to do safezone 3 or start with safezone 1 - we could get some bonus points.

[Zoë]

Looks like the cut off time is 2 days and 9 hours from now. So whatever we think we can get done.

[Zoë]

Zuza if you could find the farm/ranch one (#9) I could do 7th in a series probably. I was just hating the one I chose and couldn’t find anything else! And let’s see between the four of us who can fit in #10!! If anyone finds something, let’s make sure to post ASAP so we know :)

Book:
Qualification for #7: 7th in series

[Kerri]

I'm almost done with #6, I'll take a look and see if I have anything that will cover #10.

[Zoë]

Awesome! I’m almost done with #4 and will see if I can find something for #9 or #10 too. Hopefully we can find quick reads and get these all finished! Oh and I finished #7!

[Zuza]

I (Hope) I found a book for #9 and as a bonus it is relatively short. The disaster at Roosevelt ranch by Elise Faber. This book should be fine for this task right?

[Kerri]

I don't think I'll be able to finish anything for #10. but I'm finishing up #6 tonight!

[Zoë]

I am finishing up #4 right now. I’m gonna see if there’s a quick read for #10 that I can squeeze in before bed. Hooray for audiobooks on double speed Hahahah. We’ll see what I can find!!

[Zoë]

So it looks like we don’t have #9 and #10 finished in time. I am in Mountain Standard Time in the US and it’s my bedtime! If anyone gets to either of those please update the spreadsheet! Otherwise, let’s looks at the Spell it out in Safezone 1 and then maybe another spell it out in safezone 3?

[Zoë]

I put in a word for safezone 3 and put in a book I could do for safezone 1 if we decide to go with that. I was having a hard time figuring out if others had read the books I already have checked out at the library. Haha. So if someone wants to finish out R and M for “Farm” between Thursday and Friday then maybe we can start on safezone 1 if that feels doable??

[Zuza]

So, I finished the book for task #9, but can't update the spreadheet. Can't find a way to do it from my phone :(. So if anyone reads it before the time is up, please update the spreadsheet. Thanks

[Kerri]

So I finished my book last night and then promptly fell asleep. Thank you to whomever updated the sheet!

[Zoë]

I updated the spreadsheet Zuza - you can request permission to update the spreadsheet and then should be about to.

Who wants to look at the spell it outs I mentioned above?

[Zuza]

Zoë I have the permission to update the spreadsheet, I just couldn't find a way to do it on my phone.

I definitely want to. I can do B and W from safezone group 1.

[Zoë]

Oh I see! I downloaded the Google Sheets app but that’s because I use it for work so it worked out for me. :) I totally get not wanting another app if it’s just for this though! Okay awesome, so are we starting on safezone 1 first then?

[Kerri]

I have an R book I could read for SafeZone 1.

[Zoë]

Cool! I’ll look to see if I can do another for Safezone 1. I started my book for O today.

Book:
Rating: ****
Date finished: 10/5
Review: Just as good as The Hate U Give in a lot of ways. I appreciated the story and as a white woman it is always educational to read books from different worlds from me. I like to think that I’m open minded and have a well rounded understanding of the world. But that’s when books come in and are like “girl you know nothing, Jon Snow” Love it when a book helps to remind me that i don’t k ow everything and that I have so much to continue learning.

[Sarah]

what is the date for safe zone? what date did it start?

[Zoë]

Two days ago. I’m not sure what time zone you’re in but for MST in the US, it was Thursday, I think. All the comments are dated and with times too. So I just figured it by looking at that.

[Zoë]

I should be able to read for N, if you can’t Sarah.

[Zuza]

Finished my book for B Brightly Burning and moving on to W The Whisper Man, which I should be able to finish before the 7th.

[Kerri]

Just finished up The Raven Tower for R!

[Zuza]

I finished The Whisper Man. But because I am late for work I didn't have time to update the spreadsheet, so can someone please do that for me? Thanks :D

[Zoë]

I can read for N now I’ll do

[Zuza]

This was so fun. I am glad I joined in on this group challenge. Thank you, we were a great team 🙂
