Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Cool good job Phoebe.

Great job guys. We are on day 4 and we have completed April 16 times.

Wow we gained so many points! :o

I'm finishing Acomaf today, which is 5 or more points as well as BR points, but not bonus points as started before April.

phoebe (phoebecarrazco) | 538 comments So proud of our team for getting all those P's today! :D
I'm realizing that those are much harder to get than I thought haha

***Quick note - please remember to check for highest page count editions when posting your reviews, and please remember that you can only claim a maximum of 5 letters for each book that counts for letters ☺ ***

I've finished Acomaf but it doesn't count for letters because started in Feb.I'm also into Acowar now too.

Progress:
38% into Words in Deep Blue
7% into Heir of Fire
6% into A Court of Wings and Ruin
33% into A Heart So Fierce and Broken

Eesh (quirkyopinions) | 7289 comments Haven't posted any reviews yet but I read a novella (need to read something else for get to 200 pages). Currently halfway through Tunnel of Bones and 70% done with A Vigil in the Mourning (will finish the latter today). Also, starting The Lightning Thief today, which'll give us three more P's, I think.

Sounds great Quirks!

I'm probably only reading 50 or so pages tonight, I'm so tired right now just worked a 12hr day


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments More p's will be up tonight. Working hard to finish off college work once and for all but should be done tonight. We are doing well and I have quite a few p's and I'm always finding more. Guys just keep reading. Have fun in these uncertain times. I rather lose and know that people are reading what they enjoy instead of reading books they dont want to just for letters.

Aly (alyp_01) | 11128 comments I'm reading a P book now too

Katie | 3379 comments Yes, Mummy!!! I love your mindset! Enjoy your reading as well!!

phoebe (phoebecarrazco) | 538 comments Hey y'all! Super proud of our team and hope you are all doing well. :)

Quick question - I just finished Archenemies and posted my review with this edition at 560 pgs: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

I found an edition with 687 pgs but it's made in large print, which I didn't use because I assumed we weren't allowed to use editions that had larger font sizes. That edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Does anyone know about the rules with this? It's been a while since my last challenge I participated in so I just wanted to be sure :)


message 164: by Eesh (new)

Eesh (quirkyopinions) | 7289 comments You can count large print editions. You can also, for this challenge, use different edition for the letters you choose.

Alright I'm going to make more progress with Acowar, Heart So Fierce and Broken as well as Guinevere Deception. And tomorrow after work I'm planning to do a 24hr readathon (with some sleep) to try and get some of my books finished up! But we've definitely got this challenge in the bag guys :D


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments No, I read a book today and posted it now it's been set up as a buddy read lol. Seems like everyone is finding all of my P books.

Well we have a competition on our hands now. It's okay guys I've just posted a load so hopefully we'll take the lead again. Lots of P's again. I'm reading but my son is starting to get bored with the lock down now so I'm not finding a lot of time to get on.


message 168: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments I think I have two or three books to post.


message 169: by phoebe (new)

phoebe (phoebecarrazco) | 538 comments I should have two more 600+ pg books with buddy reads posted within the next few days! :)


message 170: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments Yay!


message 171: by Eesh (new)

Eesh (quirkyopinions) | 7289 comments Finished two books. Will try to post both reviews tomorrow.


message 172: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) Finished and reviewed one! Hopefully I'm finally out of my reading slump

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53682 comments Mod
OMG aren't we in the lead anymore? I haven't been on in a few days! But I'll get lots more reading done today, will definitely finish up Acowar which is max points.

Progress:
52% into Acowar
52% into AHSFaB
34% into Guinevere Deception

GUUUYS WHAT'S HAPPENED! This is so terrifying! I'll get through my daily reading and then find a book with some Ps in it to get us back up there! Good thing Easter weekend! Bad thing though coz everyone'll be thinking the same thing

message 175: by Katie (new)

Katie | 3379 comments I will have a few to post by the end of the weekend as well! Hope you enjoy your books, Maddie!!

I think if we can try and find editions with the letter P in it, that would help a lot...I tried to get a couple of P's with one of my books, but it wasn't in English. LOL!! But my other book I'm reading now has an edition with a P in the title, so I'll use that one!


message 176: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53682 comments Mod
Perfect Katie!

I think we've got the best chance of catching up quickly as Keep Calm is almost at the same number of Ps as As so they'll need both letters. Whereas if we focus Ps we will be fine

Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments I still have a few just getting some buddies done today. I could possible have 6 or 7 P's tomorrow.


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments We are losing on bonus points if we can get them up we have more buddy and page points.

I'm chatting with Ash about which P books we can BR in a few minutes to get us back up there. But this is so intense and just the motivation I need!

Yeah, and with us focusing Ps now we should be fine.


message 183: by Katie (new)

Katie | 3379 comments I'm hoping someone can help me out...

I read a graphic novel (with a P!) and it had 368 pages. I also wanted to read a book with less than 150 pages this month for my April challenge. Can I combine these two items together to count letters for ONE of them?

Or do I need to find another graphic novel and another book with less than 150 pages and combine them by similar type? For example, combine 2 graphic novels to get to 600 pages. And then combine 2 books with less than 200 pages to get the minimum. I hope this makes sense with what I'm asking...

I guess I'm wondering if I can combine my graphic novel and my 150 page book together?

Thanks in advance!!

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53682 comments Mod
This has always confused me too XD Sorry Katie! Maybe post it in the main thread so Sarah can answer it?


message 185: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53682 comments Mod
Also Ash and I are stacking up the Ps. We're planning so many BRs for Ps. I'll post the links here once they're made to see if you guys want to join. We need another 26 Ps before we need any other letters, and these ones all have 2 Ps or more


message 187: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53682 comments Mod
Alriiiight, time to shower and then to read! Starting off with Pompeii if anyone wants to start.

Also we will get 5 Ps for Revenge of the Witch so would love more people to join <3 It's also my all-time favourite series so I'm also recruiting people to its amazingness

Strong's exactly 200 points ahead of us. I'm going to eat lunch now and then I'm ready for reading!

Thank you for joining in Jackie! Try not to spread it around to the other teams please because we need Ps, no one else does.

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4452 comments I need to review three books, which will get us three P's and some other letters.

Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Wait until tonight Maddie. I had a brain wave. Will post my reviews later hopefully I'll get a few done today. That is close....a great competition this month. Sarah did a great job with the teams.


message 196: by Aly (new)

Aly (alyp_01) | 11128 comments I love that the competition is close, so much more fun that way!


message 197: by Saige (new)

Saige (lannister807) Yeah, I love the tension of a close competition! I'll have a P book done by the end of the weekend


Mummy's Naughty Corner (mummysnaughtycorner) | 6951 comments Well that was a load of p's unfortunately me and Sarah were posting at the same time so I still need to have a few counted lol. More coming tomorrow. We have seemed to have caught up with all the other teams on bonus points. I have more P's to come. I just need time to read.

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 53682 comments Mod
We're solidly ahead again :D

Ash and I are around 20% into Pompeii, which I plan to finish today, which is another 2 or 3 Ps each.

Book's posting lots of Ps for Keep Calm. But knowing we've got lots more Ps to get before we need to catch up on other letters, we will be fine
