Awesome! I know Andrea is also going to buddy read some of the ones I posted but, she just hasn’t finished her TBR yet. Would it be possible to have
started on November 1st and
on a random day the first week? The others would be fine for random days on the second week if that’s okay with Erica.
Mod
Would it be possible to have
started on Nov..."Yeah! I can make the thread for Nov 1st right now :)
Just that one if we could put even nov 1st and i can just read itnthis month
Alaina, can we please get a buddy read thread for Demigods Academy: Year One started for today, tomorrow, or the 1st? Erica is trying to read it by the end of the month if possible.

What about November 5th?
Does anyone want to buddy read this series with Andrea and me? It’s on Audible Escape and it is incomplete (just in case that bothers anyone).
@Erica okk! I'll request the thread now
Oh i did request one, forgot to post here though lol

Heyy can we do re-reading though??"
Yes rereads are allowed. The only rule is you can't reread the same book more than once for a challenge
Mod
Gotcha checked in!

Since we only have to read one of the two choices for the first round, I changed the color to green for the ones that are completed. Hope thats okay. Figured would be easy to see which we have left to complete. Been a great reading day for me today as we spent 2 hours in the car for my son's hockey game out of town lol
That’s great! I’ll try to take a look at the sheet tomorrow. I’m traveling a lot until Next Tuesday so I’ll be on andOff GR until then
Mod
Gotcha checked in!
Erica, thanks for suggesting we use Uprooted for the freebie space, but I think it would be better if we banked it for our next Bingo card. So much happened in that book, that I'm confident that it will fit a future category.I think we should save the freebie spots for some of those romances that are harder to place.

Trying something new for this challenge and if it works, then I might keep it next year. When it comes to scores, if you look at the ones from today, you will notice that some people are hidden under SPOILER. Now this is only because those people haven't posted a book on the team's review thread YET.
It doesn't mean that they are out of the competition.. but it will mean that they won't win a book prize IF that teams wins the challenge. Mostly because they wouldn't have won due to participation. So try your very hardest not to remain under SPOILER until the very end.. but we totally get that life gets in the way.
I'm just trying to make things a bit more fair since I did mix everyone up for this two month challenge.

Jennifer wrote: "I might be interested Brianna, let me check my schedule and get back to you today"We’re you able to see if you could do a series buddy read? It’s okay if you can’t. I’m on her ARC team and have to go ahead and start all of them since book three released yesterday and the reviews are due soon.
Brianna, sorry about the tardy reply. Yes! Let's go ahead and do it. It might take me a couple of days to get going and it sounds like you are in more of a time crunch. Do you want me to set the series thread up for today or tomorrow and I can catch up to you when I can?

Today or tomorrow will work for me and thank you for setting it up/ joining me!
ok, So in the spreadsheet the yellow ones need to be completed right? I keep posting at the wrong time. :/
I have one for MAZE but don't want to post it unless it works.
Mayra, if the person hasnt posted theirs yet for the corn maze category? I think thats what its called lol on my mobile so cant check. then I would post yours and the other one can be posted in round 2. We are close to round 2 anyways.
I did it! I didn;t mess it up this time hahaha. looking forward the next round.
Mod
Other than that, you all did get a spin of 85 bonus points that have been added to your total score!
Can we please ensure we are posting our books in the spreadsheets before posting in review thread? Has happened a few times now that people are posting a review when someone else has it on the spreadsheet.
My bad. I'll put my books first there. Thank you erica!! sorry though :(
Are we still doing outdoor activities?
I'm in the process of catching up with reviews, should be finished by Sunday fingers crossed so I'll finally post some if there are spots available :D
The only categories that we have unclaimed are: Title rhymes with snow & Angel in title!Brianna has Her demon harem book 1 & 2 to review.
Jennifer has Red sister, and caught in time on the board.
Erica has A Christmas star to review, & the witch of halloween house on the board.
BookWorm has The Real boy to review.
We're so close to finishing this board, so if you finish anything and it doesn't fit the categories in bold please put it in the banked books tab. When we get our new board books listed on the banked tab will get priority.
I finished A Christmas Star but on a mobile so wont be able to post until tonight, so if anyone wants to do it before for me feel free :)Also halfway through the pumpkin in text book
I finished Wildcard (MPG SciFi) and will post my review first thing in the morning!
