Thank you guys who have confirmed, I will go ahead and create team threads..

One small change though, since we have an additional member joining us (welcome Nihira), we have to re-align the teams.... we hope you can still have fun reading with your new buddies... you can begin the challenge from 5th June and it will end on 30th June (EST).

Good Luck!
