Ashley (ashezbookz) | 52 comments hey are we setting up a plan to get the most bang for our reads, or just filling in sections as we read ?? there's a lot of categories to read for and I don't want to read for the same one as someone else if that makes sense lol

I don't think we necessarily need a plan. We have a few super fast readers on the team so I think our best plan would just be to not pre-claim anything until we're done so we can move along as a team faster. Anything that doesn't fit can always be banked but that's just my two cents!! :P

Deanie Nelder | 1085 comments Goodreads seems so oddly quiet with the notifications suspended. Which is mostly not true, since people are reading and reviewing as normal, as far as I know. But for things like Buddy Reads, it's odd. I hope they're back soon.

I know. I messaged the people I had talked about doing a buddy read with but we hadn't set up dates, but I posted a thread to see if anyone wanted to Buddy Read Halloween-themed cozy mysteries with me, and I don't know if no one is interested, or if no one has checked the thread.

Deanie Nelder | 1085 comments I just discovered that Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer is on the Bullying Books List (on page 24 of 25), so if someone else has a book that features a kidnapping, we could move it.

Also, I just finished Grave Sight (Harper Connelly, #1) by Charlaine Harris which could be used for either #92 (GRAVE in the title) or #52 (Cemetery Book List). Is anyone reading a book that could be used for the other task?
