Make A Snow Angel: Angel in title
Vicki, how are you doing with the angel book?
Erin wrote: "Vicki, how are you doing with the angel book?"She's done but she needs to write the review. :)
Perfect! Judging by how many books we have banked I'd say we are all ready to move to the next board. Haha.
I haven’t checked the banked tab recently. Speaking of which I have some books to add. 😁
Added. I'm also close to finishing
I'll either push and finish it tonight or it will be done in the next couple of days.
I did start a book with angel in the title so that we can move forward. If Vicki review it before I finish then no worries! I'm just eager to move forward.
Omg I forgot to review that one!!! I’m so sorry but I’ll go do it now!
No worries!! I just figured you might have gotten busy with the upcoming holiday!
I did lol but mostly I forgot to do that particular one. Yesterday I’d posted about my daughter’s car in another thread, I think. All four of her tires were slashed. Turns out the punks who did it did a lot of vandalism on cars and houses, 15 cars to be exact. They cut cable wires, threw watermelons and other items into car windows, slashed tires. One poor house had 3 cars and they slashed all the tires on all 3. They even started 3 large fires on dairy farms, so I was out with my daughter all day. Thank goodness they did catch the 2 kids, 18 & 19 so they’ll get adult charges. Then we had a party for my granddaughter at 3:30. I finally got home around 8:00. So I had originally planned on updating all my reviews yesterday till I got the call from my daughter. By time I got home last night I figured I’d do them today but IF I had remembered this one book, I would have reviewed it.
oh wow. that's insane!! you have been busy!!! I'm glad they caught those kids at least!!

Your new board is: SONGS!

Sleigh Ride: Title has a word that rhymes with RIDE OR Horse on cover
It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year: Title starts with the letter Y OR Read a new release.
I’ll have The Institute finished later today if no one else has a new book.
I do but idk if I'll finish it today, so you go Vicki!!!
I have a new book in banked I just got caught up! Been a busy few days for me!Also, Vicki that’s so terrible about the vandals and all the damage they’re doing!!! It’s so sad for people to do that kind of thing :/
I’m glad 2 were caught and will face charges.
I can post Guinevere Deception now if we want it for new book
that would work, Keri!!! then we just need that final task and move to the second half of the board.
None of mine have a horse or rhyme with ride and now that’s the only one we need posted to move on.
Jenny’s book The Pale Horse has a horse on the cover in the paperback and kindle edition. It’s in banked books I say we use that!Jenny can you post that one? Or I can do it if we think we should go ahead?
hmmm with holidays coming up for some people maybe we should go ahead and post it? idk
No one is listed for that task yet so I think it should be fine. I’ll find her info and post it :-). Hopefully everyone will just be happy we get to start posting the other half before holiday starts!
Okay team! To try to help us better utilize all our banked books, I’ve made a column for author on the spreadsheet next to title on the banked tab. That was it makes it easy to see author initials since there are often tasks like that. This will help any of us that have time to be online help others find places to fit their books too. I went to everyone’s pages to get authors for almost all the books to start us off!The only two I was unsure of out for Sierra—I couldn’t find Insomnia or Bronze Horseman on any of your shelves to update the author for those.
I also think it would be good to wait before using up the free space because the two in there right now could have for other tasks and we can literally use ANY book for free space so we could just pick one off the banked tab when we have all the other spots filled. Thoughts?
Well I got really excited this was going to help us find all the author spots and fill them. Not the case lol. I found one tho and it may help us get some of those tricky ones going forward. Who knows, figured it couldn’t hurt :-)
It will also help find our banked books if they are not on our teammates shelves. ^_^
Oh and Keri NP about taking the new book spot. I can always use it elsewhere. ^_^
Ok cool good :-)Also I’m now reading Daughter of Smoke and Bone and flying through it— already 140 pages in after a few hours. How have I not read this until now??

I loved Daughter of Smoke and Bone! I did find it got worse as the series went on but it was still a solid 3-4 star. :)
Oh that’s a bummer about as it went on but maybe it will help if I keep going with not super high expectations.
🤣😂🤦♀️I started this because I thought it was published in 2010...it’s 2011 lol

I'm pretty sure I have a 2010 book coming up. I'll check when I get back. Have to take the dog out.

PS. You still have books on hold, I believe they are Ashy's, due to them not having a task. If they can fit with Round 2 - please let me know!

My next book

Thanks for posting my book!I updated the banked books tab with other books I read - nothing works for our current board but hopefully will help us out later!
Books I need to review. (I'm putting them here to shame myself into writing them)

I feel you. I find it hard to write reviews if I don't do them right away.
Jammin Jenny wrote: "I feel you. I find it hard to write reviews if I don't do them right away."Same yet I never do it... I'm self-destructive. 🤦♀️😭🤷🏻♀️😁
I think I'll try to do at least one tonight. *fingers crossed* I have to wait for my hair to dry anyway and puppy will need to pee at least once more before bed time.
I have the same problem, it’s harder if I don’t do them right away because then they pile up and feel overwhelming lol.I had two to do and just got them done so I can now go back to reading :-)
