If you are going to buddy read that book, I'd love to join you :)
If my copy of The Push comes in this month, I will join you guys. I'm low on the list though so I'm not counting on it.

Hey, everyone! Checking in. Hoping to have a better June than May. Right after a hospital stay, I got a new job. Really have to catch up on my TBR pile :)

I'm good now. I had Covid :( First time in my life I have been too tired to read. But I'm much better now and have so much reading to catch up on :)

Hey. I’ve been meaning to read Shadow and bone as well if you wanted to BR?

That would be great! When would you like to start? Second half of the month would be better for me if it's okay.

Second half of the month is good for me. What about the something like the 16th?
Went totally OTT with BRs at the start of the May challenge, so think this might be a little more 'mood reading'. I have a ridiculous amount of books on my TBR list - physical and ebooks - so cannot understand why I am struggling to work out what I want to start reading next...

Can i join you for salems lot?
Checking In! These are my books so far for this one:
:) I'm gonne try these 5, but I have noticed that when I get wrapped up in a new series it is difficult to put down and I forget the other books I have planned >.< At least two of these are final books in series :D
Hi, everyone. I just joined this group. So I just pick books based on the challenges and then update as I go? Or can I just read anything?

Hi! Welcome to the group :) You can read any book you like, and you can post your reviews of the books in the review thread for this challenge (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...). After reading, you just write a review of what you thought in the book, and post it in there! You can claim points by posting these reviews, buddy reading books (so reading them with someone else, posting updates on that book's thread and discussing the book) and by looking at the rules of this challenge (they are shown at the top on the review thread!).
This challenge is the Harry Potter challenge, so the rules also relate to Harry Potter. For example, say I just finished Iron King by Julie Kagawa. I then go and look at the descriptions of this month's challenge, and I see I can claim points for 'Is written by a female author', or for example for 'has a 5 letter word in the title/series name/author name ('Julie').
If the book also has more than 600 pages, you can claim the Special Hermoine bonus too, which gives you even more points!
So the comment I would post in the review thread will look like this:
Bonus?: Yes, Transfiguration (written by a female author)
Special Hermoine Bonus?: No
Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Buddy: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Pages: 572 - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
And that's that! Always pick the edition with the most possible pages, even if that's not the edition you've read.
I hope this is clear, let me know if you have any other questions :)

I just finished defending my thesis, so I'll finally be able to read for the rest of the day! :D
Saar The Book owl wrote: "Ah, on what subject and how was it?"
On the influence of cognitive mistakes on the relationship between certain antisocial personality traits and delinquent behavior! So basically forensic psychology/brain! :) I think it went well, but there was this professor who was specialized in this certain area with very difficult questions, but I feel like I talked my way out of them :D
