I've added myself to the second tab, hope that's okay :)

[Julianne]

I added myself to the spreadsheet and have started adding potential books onto it. I really just plan to continue my reread of the Cirque du freak series starting with

I'll look through planned Brs and see if anything catches my eye. I really haven't been reading much this year though

[Mina]

Sure. ^_^

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

Done. ^_^

[Heather]

I’m going to check on the planned buddy reads and go off of that to see if I own any of them

[Krystal]

Okay, If not, I have one I can read right away and knock the X out.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Hello Team Prosperous, just to let you know that I have messaged Meya and Sanah to ask them to check in. I will be looking to replace anyone who hasn't checked in by 00:01 PST August 4th x

[Sanah]

Hi everyone checking in! Sorry for the late response, I forgot to check back in the thread when teams had been posted

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

Checked in up to here. ^_^

[Heather]

Started my first book!

[Sanah]

I have also started my first book! I'm reading the Girl in the Tower, the second book in the Winternight trilogy

[Sharon]

Starting my first book! I got more free time to read this month.

[Siobhan]

I thought id get finished but work got in the way. Im sure i can use whats left as page count and not a letter. Im 102 pages in so hoping to get it done this weekend then i want to start

[Danique]

Oehh! I can't wait to read it, sadly it's hard to get a copy where I live, so I'm hoping it'll be here on time..

[Heather]

I went ahead and claimed the L just because I’m reading this book and didn’t want to waste this letter

[Danique]

I claimed C, since I'll finish the book in a little while, but don't have the time today to write a review! I'll probably upload that tomorrow, so sorry for the delay!

[Krystal]

I’m currently reading an X but if someone finishes and posts before I finish, that’s fine.

[Sanah]

I can take G since I'm reading Girl in the Tower if no one else is reading a book for that letter yet. I should be done either tomorrow or Monday at the latest with a review up as well!

[Sharon]

I claimed A since I’m reading a book with that letter right now.

[Krystal]

So I'm a little confused. I thought we weren't claiming letters until were done with the book and posted a review? Like we can say in here we are reading the letter but not actually claiming it on the spreadsheet until it's done.

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

I agree. Please don’t pre-claim letters guys. It makes it too hard to keep track and makes the spreadsheet pointless and confusing to follow 😰

[Jenn]

Agreed :)

Ope my bad, I didn't read through the entire thread about not writing in the spreadsheet! I removed my name from the letter G, so if anyone has already read a book that can be used then feel free to claim the letter :)

[Danique]

@Krystal wow how do you read so many books in one day? :o

[Jenn]

Hi Heather - I see you claimed L and marked it as posted but I don't see it on the review thread. Are you posting it today? I only ask because I have a book done that can complete that letter now. Otherwise I can save the book until next round. Just let me know! :)

[Krystal]

I’m actually normally not like that!! But my daughter wasn’t home and my boyfriend worked 8am-9pm so I had the entire day to myself, lol. And one book I started midnight on the first because it was a sequel and I just had to continue. I’m trying to get all my gold reading in before school starts as well. Lordy knows this year is going to be different and I won’t have as much time with the virtual teaching.

[Danique]

@krystal Aaah that’s very nice though! Sounds good :)

[Sharon]

Hi, I posted my review for A right now, and I will start Terrier today.

[Ashleigh]

First book finished, writing my review now :)

[Danique]

I have a G in my book, I'll probably finish it in a few hours, but if anyone has a book with G before that, do add it! :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

[Heather]

I moved the book I was reading for L for this board we are working on and I have another book I can use for this board I plan to finish before I work today hopefully!

[Danique]

I've added the Divergent board to the SS!

[Maddie]

Hello new team! I'm so happy to be back participating!!

I've finished a book I started last month so that's only 4 points, but I'm 40% into Salt to the Sea and 20% into Burn Our Bodies Down, but I'm not sure when I'll finish Salt so I'll only put Burn on the spreadsheet. I'll finish that tomorrow.

[Maddie]

I'm not sure how the letter options work on the spreadsheet.. Can someone chuck some letters in there for me so I can see how it works for my book? I was thinking of just counting the U as it's tough to find

[Krystal]

Hello! So we aren’t claiming letters until the book has been read and reviewed and don’t add it onto the spreadsheet until after that has happened. The second page is your own personal checklist though.

[Krystal]

Sorry, not sure what you mean by chuck letters in, lol.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Great news, you are now all checked in ☺

[Danique]

Hi! The idea is that after you've read a book and posted everything there is to be posted, you 'claim' a letter on the first page, by checking the box at the letter you want to claim (so in your case that will maybe be U, so the first letter on board 2) and then put your name and where you claimed it from (author/title etc), and also if it's a buddy read or not.

On the second page we all (or most of us I think) put down our books and the info about the book, each in our own table (the name of the person is in front of the table). I can add your name if you like, and then you can post your books in there!
I'm not sure if this is clear, let me know if you need more info!

[Julianne]

I'm finishing my first book tonight and I'll start on my second shortly after. I'll make sure to update the SS and find the best letters

[Maddie]

Hey Julianne! Yes please if you wouldn't mind creating my section on the thread?

I'll be posting a book tomorrow night, I'm finishing it tonight just not coming home. So tomorrow night I shall post :)

Also I'm participating in Dewey's 24hr readathon so I hope to finish 4-5 books on the weekend!

[Danique]

I finished a book with the letter C, but I won't be able to post until tomorrow night! I'll put my name on the SS so you guys know, but anyone can change it. So if there's anyone else in the meantime who can claim it, you can still do it anyway!

[Jenn]

Thanks for letting us know Danique!

[Julianne]

Maddie, for both of your books I think your best bet would be to either claim "u", "p". You could also use Burn our bodies down for "d"

Next board is
These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner
THESBROKNAUNDMIFGP

The letters for your Books are
SALTOHERUPY
BURNODIESWYP

[Maddie]

Thanks Julianne!

I've finished Burn Our Bodies Down, will update for it now. And I'm 20% into November 9. I've got Dewey's readathon starting in around 16 hours so I've got lots of plans. I won't be updating during the readathon, but will do a good update after. Will finish 4-5 books.

I see someone's reading Vampire Academy, who's that? I plan to finish Blood Promise during the readathon, and would be keen to continue reading the series finally!
