Do we have to do brs? And it can be any series books right? Still a little confused but super excited for this challenge!"


You don't have to do BRs but it does double your page points so an easy advantage when possible. Any series is fine as long as at least 2 books of the series are published (if only 1 book-ask Sarah on the main thread).

No it's not published yet. It releases 3rd December. But I have to read my arc before that or it expires.

Im actually going to nOt add any more arcs to br except the 2 I scheduled with you @heather. (I'll set those threads up soon)

I just looked at all my books and br's planned for Nov/Dec and I'm already at 12 + 8. I don't want to add too many more or else I won't be able to finish everything : )

Katie | 3379 comments @Nari! Yes!! That would be great!!! I can anytime! I just got the audiobook today, and can start listen to it anytime in the next 2 weeks! :) :)


message 108: by Katie (new)

Katie | 3379 comments @ Nari- Yes! That works perfectly!! I'll request the thread for November 2nd! :) :) :) So excited....I read this years ago, but have forgotten so much of it, and I was asked to speak to the middle school reading classes about YA sci-fi books, so I wanted to re-read this series before doing that!


message 109: by Katie (new)

Katie | 3379 comments @ Nari- I just saw you were also interested in Empire of Storms! Yes, I'll read that too! I think there is another group (Maddie) trying to set up a date for that book later on in the challenge, and I told her that I would just keep an eye out for when they decide to buddy read that one! But hopefully you can join us too!

Hi everyone, just checking in :)


message 113: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments So I plan to jump in for the BRs of The Toll, Supernova and Red Rising.
Here are other books I might read over the 2 months if anyone wants to BR anything on here https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
I'm so ready for this challenge! I'll be starting off the month finishing up some reads I'm in the middle of, so I won't be getting bonus points right away, but I'm so ready! 13hr for me until it's the 1st!


message 115: by Claire (new)

Claire Chibi | 1826 comments I have a terrible habit of starting series and then never finishing them even though I'm enjoying them so this challenge is perfect for me :D


message 116: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
Yes me too! I do the same, hence why I re-read so many times so I actually finish series

These are the BRs I already have planned which should cover all of November:
The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly BlackThe Wicked King (The Folk of the Air, #2) by Holly Black[bookcover:The Queen of Nothing|2..."


Nice! I plan on reading "The Queen of Nothing" "Escaping from Houdini" and "Capturing the Devil" on November as well. Do you have the dates and links to the BR? "The Queen of Nothing" I plan on reading as soon as it comes out, because I'm almost dying counting the days. XD

I'll read [bookcover:Get a Life, Chloe Brown|43884209] maybe mid to late Dec. since it doesn't come out until Nov. 5 and my library takes forever to get the books. Would that work for you?

Also The Friend Zone (End of the Line #1) by Sariah Wilson

Possibly The Dry (Aaron Falk, #1) by Jane Harper

message 121: by Gabrielle (new)

Gabrielle (gabrielleliaa) Hey team! I just got added! So excited to start! I am a little confused on what’s goin on however....like always haha. Can someone please explain? Are we buddy reading series’s or is it the whole team reads one series?


message 122: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
We can all read whatever books we want Gabrielle. So far we're just talking about what books we do want to read, because buddy reading gets double points.


message 123: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
Also it's the 1st for me :D I'm starting by finishing up books I've started already, so no bonus points from me for a good few days, but I'm alright with that. I just need to not stress about this challenge


message 124: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 12271 comments Yes no stressing! I think you’ve been run ragged with the current challenge. Take is easy. 🌻


message 125: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
Yeah Sarah and I are both over the challenge. It's getting to the point where everyone's asking to change/add/swap letters from way back when, and it's all just frustrating to no end. Scores are not a quick thing. Sarah and I both spend hours tallying up the scores, only to make mistakes and then have to go back and change them. Or points aren't equalling what's on the team's ss, so then that becomes our problem, or people change letters, and then that's more hours of work trying to make things equal. It's just a lot.

You guys either need like 10 more mods or people need to not change things and still have like 5 more mods. lol. You guys are always amazing to me. ^_^

XD Thanks Book. Yeah Idk how Sarah used to do this herself.

I don't either. Like MMC alone was completely mind boggling. O.o


message 129: by Eesh (new)

Eesh (quirkyopinions) | 7289 comments Yeah, that challenge must have taken so much time! I mean, the non-reading challenge alone is so much work.


message 130: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
Yeah I'm so glad that I started the month after MMC XD That I've got the most possible time to prep for that. I have no idea what that's going to be like. Totally different ball-game. At least now I don't have study to contend with anything, only work.


message 131: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments It all worked out for the best! Plus next year we might get more challenges for MMC as well with you on board. ^-^


message 132: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 2302 comments What’s MMC XD?


message 133: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Vicki wrote: "What’s MMC XD?"

Mega Month Challenge. We have it every year in August. It's the anniversary challenge. We typically have about 4 challenges. One team and three non team. With one of the non team being the non reading challenge. ^_^


message 134: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 2302 comments Thanks, Anna, I’ll have to check it out and see how it works.

message 141: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments I am too Maddie!! I don’t even have a tbr planned out so I’m super nervous for my reading challenge now 😂


message 142: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
XD I was trying not to plan a TBR and just read what I wanted, but as I thought, that idea flew out the window when I checked the Wanted BR thread. It always does. So much for Netgalley November XD


message 143: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53680 comments Mod
I've read 40 pages or so today, I got home planning on finishing Enna Burning (4 page points XD) but so many people review dumped for the last day of the challenge I ended up spending hours doing scores


message 144: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments Oh no! I have work in about 4 hours so I won’t get much reading done today myself


message 145: by Heather (new)

Heather | 10157 comments Starting Sky in the Deep if anyone wants to join

Gabrielle (gabrielleliaa) I’m doing what Maddie’s doing. I’m reading two books that are part of a series right now so I’m gonna finish those then continue the series.
