message 51: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments I agree with Aly, I think it'll be better to do it as we start the books bc sometimes we don't always get to our projected reads


⚚♆ Cynthia ♆⚚ | 737 comments Hello! I am going to start the following book where the MC is a detective: Harder They Fall: A Gripping Private Detective Crime Mystery. Is anyone planning to take that task? If not, shall I add it to tab 1 under:

Scavenger Hunt!
MC is a detective - My book
MPG Cozy Mystery - For next round


Nikki the Sapphired Book Dragon AKA NixieNut  (sapphireddragon) | 167 comments Can I take snow on the cover first as this will fit with my first read of the year


message 54: by Linda C (new)

Linda C (libladynylindac) | 294 comments I am about to start The Thief for Snowball Fight: Features a fight, if that is OK

I have 2 Buddy Reads scheduled for the 2nd and the 4th that fit
Gingerbread Contest!: Read a book with a Brown Cover (75%) and
Ice Sculpting!: Letters I,C,E in title (in any order) respectively - so I would like those slots, if OK

Jirrine | 14 comments I am finishing up a book today that can only count for pages. How & where should I add this to the spreadsheet?


message 56: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments I'm reading this lie will kill you and one of the characters just got into a fight which fits for game 2 #1 "features a fight" if nobody else has taken it :)


message 57: by Linda C (new)

Linda C (libladynylindac) | 294 comments Connie can have game 2 #1 "features a fight".
I am marking my 2 BRs on the SS so team will know they are covered


message 58: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments I mean yeah sure it just means my first book might not count for anything until the next round but that's cool. I read fast anyway


message 59: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments The only other thing I've found so far is for Game 4, task 1 "House in text" (page 63)

I think you just post it for the a review in the review thread, no spreadsheet (since it doesn't take a task, just gives points)


message 61: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6799 comments I'm good with everyone adding books in the spreadsheet that will be finished in the next few days

just please don't add something and then not come back for a week or 10 days.....we may bump your book in that case....

I'm going to wait and only add my books once I am finished reading them so I don't hold up any spot someone else can finish sooner
:)

Tiffany Champion | 42 comments i would prefer books not be put in the ss til they are finished .. otherwise why bother.

you could put in to read a book and not read it and as fast as someone else and then the team loses


message 63: by Ruthie (new)

Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 1993 comments I'm currently reading The Perfect Marriage which I think "features a fight" would fit the prompt


message 64: by Connie (last edited Jan 01, 2021 11:36AM) (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments I've finished This Lie Will Kill You which I'm gonna use for features a fight

Ok no problem!


message 67: by Ruthie (new)

Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 1993 comments I'll find another prompt that matches The Perfect Marriage

Thank you - then I will post my review there!

I am currently reading The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken - which could be used for the prompt: Author's Initials in RACE. I will wait with adding it to the SS until I am 50% through :)

Jennifer | 3006 comments Hey gang, I’m up in the mountains this weekend with spotty internet. I am reading and will contribute when I get home.

⚚♆ Cynthia ♆⚚ | 737 comments I have finished my book for MC detective, I will post the review tomorrow as it is quite late! I have added it to the spreadsheet


message 73: by Celia (new)

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments I just put a book on the spreadsheet for "snow" in text but if anyone else needs that spot I can move it.


message 74: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6799 comments I’ve posted my first review. I just randomly took a free spot it worked for on the sS but if I’ve messed up someone else’s spot just let me know and I’ll move it.


message 75: by Ruthie (new)

Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 1993 comments I’m reading the book of the month forest of souls and I just came across “time” in the text so I’m taking that prompt


message 76: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments I added After This Time by Mikki Daughtery for 5+ colours on it :)

Ok I saw that someone else took "time" so I'll find another prompt that matches Forest of Souls

Hey Fast N Flurries!

Adding Kate to your team!


⚚♆ Cynthia ♆⚚ | 737 comments Linda C, do you mind to take task Ice' in text (pg/% & quote) for round 2 for Secret Sisters? I just finished reading a book that has letters ICE in title and it doesn't fit any of the other tasks. I have checked and you should be able to find ice in Secret Sisters: "Two bottles of white wine on ice sat on a nearby table"

Kate | 34 comments Hi all..Checking in. What's needed to be filled in??

All right I'll move it right now, so you can enter yours. I'll note it in the reviews as well

Gotcha checked in!


message 84: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 6799 comments I took "starts with W"

I'll finish my book today

Perfect Trisha!


message 86: by Ruthie (new)

Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 1993 comments Ok nevermind I obviously wasn't paying enough attention because Trisha already took "starts with W" so I'll try to find something that fits the other prompts


message 87: by Ruthie (new)

Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 1993 comments Ok I'm taking letters SNOW in series title starting the book today!

Thank you so much! Just posted it :)


message 89: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments Hey guys sorry I’ve been out for a couple days, reading has slowed so I’m only starting my next book genuinely now but it’s only about 300 pages so it should be done fairly quickly


message 90: by Celia (new)

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments Just finished my first book for a year, which doesn't work until round 2. I'll start one that works for the round 1 MPG cozy mystery category tomorrow.


message 91: by Jirrine (new)

Jirrine | 14 comments I just finished the Robber Bride - but I will not fit anything that is still open - I will keep it in reserve until we move on.

Aly (alyp_01) | 28931 comments Mod
We have a ton of banked books! We're going to kill this challenge


message 93: by Linda C (new)

Linda C (libladynylindac) | 294 comments I just took the last open slot in Round 1. Hope to finish it tomorrow


message 94: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments All the books I have read don't seem to fit/fit only in categories where others have claimed, I'll just submit them for page points :)


message 95: by Aly (new)

Aly (alyp_01) | 28931 comments Mod
Connie, did you check for round 2?


message 96: by Alaina (new)

Alaina (ameserole) | 81923 comments Mod
Books don't count for just page points unless they are under 100 pages. So if you post (or have posted) a book with no category/task, it will (or was) put on hold until it works for a category/task in the Round that your team is on.


message 97: by Celia (new)

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments I'm reading musical instrument on cover but I might not read that one right away right now. If anyone else wants to take it be my guest.


message 98: by Connie (new)

Connie (sunstormsandthunderclouds) | 1054 comments Yeah they don’t fit for anything in round 2 either that isn’t already covered by other people so I’d had to wait until we go back round to round one and I’m ngl I’ll have forgotten all about those books by then


message 99: by Linda C (new)

Linda C (libladynylindac) | 294 comments I can read a book with an instrument on the cover today. I'll take it from Celia

Make a completion post and put it in the space next to the last row so you can copy it later
