Hey guys,

No need to explain yourself, lovely. I hope you're doing okay :)

Glad to hear it. I'm good too, thank you :D

I've posted a few more, having to juggle writing these with keeping up with the kids, and they've finished their nap now!

We are only 18 points behind team Survivor. We can defiantly get second place! Good job team!

[Katie]

I will get my review up for tomorrow. Got home way later than I thought today, but that can be Paranormal since that one is a weird one to get.

I'll also have at least 2 more books (probably 3) done by the end of the month.

Let's do it team! :) :)

[Dannii]

Woohoo, we're closing in! I'm hoping to get 2/3 more books completed today :)

[Katie]

I think I'm going to count for a RE-READ instead to paranormal to make sure we get the grid done for the 11th time. I hope that's okay with everyone and doesn't change too many plans for people who were reading for that block.

I'm also reading the sequel, so I can always put that one for paranormal if we need that category filled again later.

With the other book I'm reading, I can claim 2020 or Currently Reading, but I won't be able to claim any of the other blocks that have a 10. Just wanted to let you all know just in case that helps with what areas you claim! :) :)

Hope everyone is doing well and having a great reading week!

Awesome! I'm hoping to get a book or two finished today and they can count for a few of the blocks we need

[Saar The Book owl]

Hi everyone, sorry that I've been letting you guys, down, but I'd got a huge reading slump and some family things. I'd planned on reading 5 books, but I think that won't be possible. I've maanged to finish a 2nd one that I'll add before the end of the month.

[Katie]

Hi guys-

I guess the one I was going to count for Historical didn't have tags to count, so we'll be pretty short on Historical.

I just finished A Court of Mist and Fury, and I'm more than 50% through what I thought would be my last book of the month, but I think I have time to read another one, and I'll make it Historical!!

[Jamie]

Historical and 2020 are still holding us at grid 10.

That's totally okay, life happens :) I hope your slump lifts for you, soon.

[Dannii]

I can try and get a historical audio in as well, over the next day or so :)

[Katie]

I'm 50% through which can be 2020. I'll try to finish that one up today! I still need to write a review for Court of Mist and Fury tonight too.

And I'm going to ask Sarah about a graphic novel that might count towards Historical and can be added to a middle grade book I'm reading to my kids. But I want to double check on that since my last Historical didn't count.

[Katie]

HA! Nevermind...I found a different graphic novel that I own and the second tag is Historical so I'll read that and add it to my Middle Grade!

[Dannii]

I have a 2020 release I can get read tonight, as well :)

[Amanda]

Should I update my book entries with the updated pages? And I need to combine books with matilda, right?

[Akshita]

No need. Sarah has already updated the points :)

[Amanda]

Akshita wrote: "No need. Sarah has already updated the points :)"


Perfect, and are things alright with matilda, I have a few others I can combine it with

Yeah.. You will need to combine it with something else for a block to completed..

[Amanda]

what are some catagories we are in need of based on what y'all are reading? I am currently reading: The Night Watchman if anyone wants to buddy read. It fits
* Adult
* Historical/historical fiction
* 2020
and a few others

Hey Amanda, we only need 2020 and Buddy to complete the board for the 12th time, so either place would be great :D

We're just about drawing with Survivor!

[Blue Butterfly]

Team Survivor has already completed their board for the 12th time unlike us which means that when we add in a 2020 and Buddy! block we will be able to pull ahead by a lot of points!

[Dannii]

I can get a 2020 completed tonight but don't think I'll have any of my buddies done until right at the end of the month.

[Saar The Book owl]

I've finished a book for YA and one Freebie. I'll post my reviews tomorrow.

[Elizabeth Emily]

I think I did a buddy that we used for something else, we could change that one and it might leave us with an easier one to fill

[Elizabeth Emily]

I’ve changed two just in case we can complete it another time after.

We need an ‘E’ and Favourite to replace the two I changed. I should have 2 reviews to put up before the end of the month 🙂

I just finished two graphic novels that I'll post not to replace 'favourite' :) Neither were buddies so this swap works great.

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

I have three to post today... Do what we know what we have left. All three are buddies and I can post them later tonight after work.

No worries :D

[Katie]

Oh shoot....I just posted for buddy.....should I change that for something else?


**I'll also have my 2020 done tonight, but probably not posted until way later...and I'll have my Historical done after that!

[Katie]

Just let me know if you want me to change the one I posted as "buddy" to re-read. Thanks!

[Dannii]

Katie wrote: "Just let me know if you want me to change the one I posted as "buddy" to re-read. Thanks!"

Maybe reread would be a good option so we can get the board closer to completed again :)

I should have a post for 2020 completed soon as well, but we need two posts for it so that's awesome :D

[Katie]

No problem! Just changed it!!

[Blue Butterfly]

I am pretty close to finishing and can claim it for contemporary. The review should be up in a few hours.
