Those are to show we have completed that row. I find it hard to find with just blue. Black stands out to me more. The Black Outline ones are ones that are close to being done. They have no red only yellow, green or blue.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I just realized the 80-85 down is not done but I'm too lazy to fix it. It will be done once Claire posts her Green book. 🤷🏻‍♀️


message 203: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I've only really done things up to round 2 as things change. I can fix round 3 later if we like it and after we have more done in round 1 and 2. :)

Oh thats a good idea! I never would have guessed that.

Glad I explained it then especially since I had used black on the tab 1 for a different reason. ^_^

Thats fine. I can see 15- 20 getting crowded though because we have a lot of books for that section.

We can add more rounds. I just don't want to focus on more than 2 for now as I'm not sure we will do more than 2. ^_^

I have no idea how to fix that so I cant do it for you.


message 209: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Like in the rounds we will not add more lines. We will just create a new round so one book per slot. But we can switch books from round 1 to 2 etc if a book is finished faster. :)

Thats okay. I have to find some books for other years after my buddies. All my buddies except for one is for the bottom of the grid though.

I will message Ashleigh about the classic now.


message 211: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments Something is up. Its not letting me message her so hopefully she is able to see this.

Huh. That's weird. Hopefully, it's a temporary glitch.


message 213: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments @ Claire I can do And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie


message 214: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments We might be able to put some of the 18 and 19s in the 20 section to help even it out a bit.

Yup. I temporarily put A River of Royal Blood since I'm sure there is a 2020 edition of that. ^_^


message 216: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Just finished the Cerulean. I have reviewed it but I won't post it till tomorrow as it's late. I will probably be starting The Alcazar as it's just singing to me. The Cerulean ended on such a cliffhanger!!!!!!!


message 217: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments I will probably be able to finish Rebel Heart (Rush Duet, #2) by Penelope Ward tonight. Its so good I cant stop listening to it.


message 218: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments Claire and I are going to be buddy reading And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie . There is 29 pages for years so I am sure it will fit alot of places. Any ideas where I should put it?


message 219: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments So I was able to finish Rebel Heart tonight. I have to wake up early tomorrow so really need to go to sleep.

Hopefully tomorrow I can start Sinful Longing (Sinful Nights, #3) by Lauren Blakely and get a little further into ACOMAF. I do work though so who knows if that will happen.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Sooooooo I ended up pulling an all nighter and will probably be up for most of the morning now. But I managed to finish both The Cerulean (The Cerulean Duology, #1) by Amy Ewing and The ​Alcazar (The Cerulean Duology, #2) by Amy Ewing ! 🤯 I literally don't know how I managed that other than sheer desire to see what happened next. I literally devoured these books. I went from an average of like 50-100 pages a day to over 800! I will probably go into a slump because of this but it was wooooooooooooooorth it.


message 221: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 3391 comments Sorry guys, just reading these messages now! Which review would you like me to move?

Also Courtney, there's a br for The Haunting of Hill House on the 16th - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...


message 222: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 3391 comments Okay, so I'll move The Price of Salt to 97-98, yes?


message 223: by Megan (new)

Megan (celtic_girl) | 6287 comments Finished The Matrimonial Advertisement (Parish Orphans of Devon #1) by Mimi Matthews and Feed (Newsflesh Trilogy #1) by Mira Grant . I added them to the spreadsheet and will post them once I write the reviews.

I already asked for the change.

If you post Feed (Newsflesh Trilogy, #1) by Mira Grant for 09-10 we can get another bingo.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Brittani I think The Fellowship of the Ring would work better in 2013 as we already have a book for 1960+

2013 edition - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...


message 228: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Okay so I'm really happy with how well we are keeping up with the SS. Courtney I moved your ACOMAF to the third round as I finished The Cerulean and it will give us another bottom line. :)


message 229: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I will be finishing Bone Crossed today so I can get us another line with that. ^_^


message 230: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments If we move Brittany's book to 2013 that will be another line as well. :)


message 231: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I will be posting all my books after I finish Bone Crossed in a few hours. I have some stuff to do and then I'll finish and review it. ^_^


message 232: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments The next book I will be reading is Silver Borne (Mercy Thompson, #5) by Patricia Briggs which I have put for 2010 in the second round but it does also work for 2011, 2012, 2015, and 2018.


message 233: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments I have added in my manga. I put them in round 2 and 3 for now as I am not done any only CR. I will add them to round 1 as I finish them. :)


message 234: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Okay time to finish Bone Crossed. Then on to the March thread BR and then hopefully some manga. ^_^

message 237: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Okay guys with Izzy's new book we are close to another line! Woohoo! So I'll really push to finish my manga. I don't know how much I'll get done but I'll try to read as much as I can. :)

2003 is really good! The only one it might have worked better for is 2012 but we have a book that works for that too. :)


message 239: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Guys we are soooooooooo close! Mostly we just need the 1929 up down column


message 240: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments Yay! We are so close. I didnt get any reading done yesterday. I am hoping to get to 50% of A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2) by Sarah J. Maas and 50% of Sinful Longing (Sinful Nights, #3) by Lauren Blakely .


message 241: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Awesome!

01- 02 and 91-92 are buddy reads on Friday. I can try to look for a book for 2011.


message 243: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Awesome.

I can cover 02 with my manga but like I said not sure when I'll get them done since I have to basically read the whole 24 volumes to make it work.

I just finished Bone Crossed. Reviewing now and then posting. I have about 45 min before I eat so I have a lot to do in a short amount of time. :)


message 244: by Anna 'Bookbuyer' (new)

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments We are up to 5 lines total!!!! Close to several others as well. :)


message 245: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments Yay! Im 52% into A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2) by Sarah J. Maas but I have to go get stuff for my daughters birthday this weekend so will be unable to read for a few hours.

message 248: by Courtney (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments Thanks you guys :) I am home now so I should be able to get more reading in.


message 249: by Courtney (last edited Mar 12, 2020 10:57AM) (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments So I did manage to get to 50% into both my books. I am hoping to get more in today, but I do work today so I dont think I will be able to read as much today. I am hoping to finish Sinful Longing at least.


message 250: by Courtney (last edited Mar 12, 2020 12:58PM) (new)

Courtney | 16038 comments Who-hoo I was able to finish Sinful Longing!

I know I am reading alot of the newer stuff. I will try to find some older stuff to even it out.
