[Joi]

That's what I said Michelle. We only have 140 points (from what the master list says_. We are in second to last place. I'm working hard. I can't do buddy reads because I always end up forgetting.

I just looked at team 6 and the only reason that they have so many points is because 1 girl has read 5 books of 500 or more pages in a week :O and not everyone is very active on here (me included I'm sorry :()

[Joi]

Wow....in a week? That's crazy.! And it's okay Michelle, I'm not that active either. And school started for me today, so I will be even less active. I'm hoping that someone will be able to pick up where I leave off once school starts to get hectic (which will probably be Thursday.)

[[deleted user]]

It's for fun anyway

[Joi]

True. So I won't stress over it.!

[Audryaunna]

I should have a book done soon. Sorry I haven't been on, school started and if we could count textbooks then our team would be in first place. LOL.

[Joi]

i know what you mean audryaunna.! good luck with school...!

I have to read Through The Looking Glass for class soon, how was it?

[Joi]

Colleen ... I may be able to read the Gemma Doyle trilogy with you. I'm not really good at Buddy Reads.

[[deleted user]]

I didn't really like through a looking glass to be honest. But that could also be because I'm busy studying for my exams and the confusion that comes with it just was very annoying for me :(

[[deleted user]]

I'm currently reading Catcher in the Rye btw :)

[Joi]

Wow...it's confusing.?

I hated the Catcher in the Rye...but I loved Holden.............if that makes any sense?

[[deleted user]]

Haha yes it's a very weird story, you'll see!

Ooh now I'm curious about. A friend loved it so that's why u started it!

[Joi]

I read it as a senior in HS (that may be part of the reason why I didn't like it. But I found myself relating/connecting to Holden...which made me like him.)

[Colleen]

Joi,I don't think I can start that till next week. Is that ok? Btw it's okay. I'm not good either...

[elle]

I'm so sorry I haven't been reading! First, a tv show sucked my soul (spent 2 days watching it nonstop) and when I was finally into reading again, one book left me in an emotional wreck. I promise I will try to read other thing, sorry team </3
At least I'm already near 400 pages in in

i know that feeling, sometimes just watching a tv show is way more relaxing than reading! (kind of have to say that because I'm a tv/film student haha)

[[deleted user]]

I have one more day of exams and then I can read more again (in between all the sleeping haha)

Whenever is good for you, is good for me .... i think. Tell me a day or two in advance.

Rachel, it's fine. I'm busy with school now so I'm moving a lot slower than I'd like.

So if your points are wrong, I'm sorry :[

[Joi]

We're in 6th place. We need to get to at least 500 points.

[elle]

@Michelle you're studying that? It sounds so cool!! And well, at least you're not stuck in school haha

@Joi I'll re-read something I loved to see if I can get some points :)
And I was thinking we could do more buddy reads, that helps a little bit!

finished catcher in the rye I don't really know what to think of it, it annoyed me a bit that it takes till the few last chapters to really understand what's going on, but it is very well written. It also reminded me of The Perks of Being a Wallflower in a way, which I'm reading at the moment btw :)

[elle]

Michelle, I love TPOBAW! It's one of my favorite books ever, and very emotional ♥ I hope you enjoy it :)

[elle]

I thought I counted wrong lol, that's why I'm asking.. Because I put the number of pages the page on Goodreads says, so maybe your copy has more or less pages.
