Yeah, I thought we could ask in the chat, all of us, before posting on the review thread so we can complete HNY more times?

Good idea! I'm about to post another book and will claim P, as we need two of them :) I'm going to work on another book for the rest of the day, but it is one I didn't complete last month so will only count for page points.

[Stormy]

H is a good shout.

And hi, guys :)

[Stormy]

Ok I will grab H shouldn't take me too long to finish this book also going to be reading a lot more Stephen King this month so if there's any in particular you think would be good to grab letters let me know

[Trisha (semi-hiatus)]

oh, I forgot, I finished by Sara Goodman Confino last night, so I can grab either N or E, which one should I do? Is anyone else reading something with one of these?
I'll have the review up in a few hours hopefully

I'm reading this month. If that is one of the titles you had planned we could BR it? No worries if not :) King books should be good for letters as he has SO many editions of each book in SO many languages, which means we should find almost every letter available somewhere :)

To get the next bonus we need the letters H N E W Y E A. My next completed book will be These Violent Delights, which can count for H Y N E. Shall I use it for H as all books count for Y (in 'by') and N and E might be easier to find?

Okay, I'll go for N then :D

[Milly]

I have a book for W but I don’t think I’ll finish it for another three days.

[Lily]

I would like to back out of the challenge and allow someone to take my spot. Sorry for any trouble or confusion caused.

No worries 😊 I have a W book i can read tomorrow too.

No worries, Lily. I hope everything is okay with you. Would you like me to let the mods know for you?

[Laasya]

Sry, Checking IN

[Stormy]

I need an easy read me any recommendations pls

[Dannii]

Hey, @Laasya :)

@Natalie, I really enjoy thrillers/dystopian books when I'm feeling slumpy. Some of my favourites are We Were Liars, The Girls, Sleep No More: Six Murderous Tales, Eight Detectives: The Sunday Times Crime Book of the Month, Girls on Fire, or The Last One

I also really enjoy middle grade fantasy like The Trials of Morrigan Crow, Tilly and the Bookwanderers, Frostheart, October, October, and The Haunting of Aveline Jones

I hope that helps :)

[Stormy]

Think I am going to try to read something with a w so we can get that marked off

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

I have three books with the author name as Sawyer, I can use for three W's, three Y's or should I bank for us to use later?

[Trisha (semi-hiatus)]

i would suggest getting the W's now....we don't have to do every HNY one at a time, do we? We can stock up on the W's?

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Ok will do!

[Stormy]

Well we've got our first Happy New Year xx

[Stormy]

Which letter would be best for me to go for next

[Dannii]

Yes, I think it will be good to stock up on Ws, where possible. And remember, we can use series names as well as authors, illustrators, translators etc. too :)

[Trisha (semi-hiatus)]

But not too many W's :)
we have currently 2, and 1 W from me by tomorrow, so we could stock up on other rare letters too...like P's and E's...I will also have an N by tomorrow night. Thoughts?

[Narnia Girl]

hi happy to be here and joining this group

checking in

[Dannii]

Hey, happy to have you join us!

[Eesh]

Hi!

[Jenn]

Welcome!

[Stormy]

Hi

[Milly]

Welcome!

[Trisha (semi-hiatus)]

Hi everyone! I just posted the review of a preview, but I'm not sure if it will count....if it does, I plan on claiming E by combining it with How The King of Elfhame Learned to hate Stories since it's illustrated

In other news, I'll be finishing up Vicious today, and hopefully Can You Keep A Secret as well

[Dannii]

Hey Trisha :) I had a little look back at the rules and it states:

"* You may read any kind of book for this challenge, but the page counts necessary to claim letters are the following -
- YA, NA, Adult, Non-fiction books (without illustrations) - 200 pages.
- Middle-grade/children's books (without illustrations) - 300 pages.
- Manga, graphic novels, plays, poetry, books written in verse, anything with some illustrations - 600 pages."

You can combine it with another book to claim it though, I'm sure :)

Okay, so can I combine it with How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories, since it's 200 pages, but it's illustrated?

I don't think there will be enough pages between the two as there as there needs to be 600 illustrated pages to count, but I'm not sure though, sorry.
