Okay! I just posted a review, reading has been a bit slow because I'm swamped at work, but it'll hopefully pick up soon!

[Danique]

Also guys, it's okay to delete someone's book (if the review hasn't been posted!!) off the letter claiming board right? If you want to post your review and claim the letter?

I'd say don't delete it but move it so that way they can still find it when they go to post

[Karen]

Back from the camping trip, so will try and sort out my reviews this afternoon. Welcome to our new team mates.

[Dr. Andy]

Hey y'all I'm going to be writing my reviews for my two on the current board soon. Looks like we're getting close to finishing our first board!

[Karen]

Such a huge gap. We really need to be posting as soon as we can.

[Dr. Andy]

Karen wrote: "Such a huge gap. We really need to be posting as soon as we can."

Eh that doesn't really matter. It's all up to the wheel and you never know what you'll get.

[Karen]

Good effort today, team.
We only have D and O to complete for this board according to the spreadsheet.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Hi, just to let you know that as part of the switch around today, Natalie will be moving from Team Poppy to Team Violet ☺

Team Poppy will lose Natalie's individual points, but retain all letters and team bonus points from Natalie's books.

Team Violet will gain Natalie's individual points, and will also be able to use the books she's has posted to gain new letters ☺

I am trying to sort out the switch now. Thanks x

[Bayan]

I haven’t checked the spreadsheet but I have those two letters covered, will post reviews tonight and share them.. give me few hours! Great efforts!!

[Dr. Andy]

don't worry about it, I'm going to add Natalie's books to them

[Karen]

The switch with Natalie joining the team looks as if it’ll make a difference too. Think Sarah is in the process of doing reviews and updating our board before slotting Natalie’s books in.

[Jenn]

Hey guys, sorry I've been absent, I'm getting married in a month so it's been very hectic here lol. But I am reading and should be able to post something today or tomorrow!

Jenn, think you've got things the right way round! Hope the wedding plans are going smoothly...

[Jenn]

Covid has made it a very interesting time to plan a wedding that's for sure lol

Don't envy you that task. I found it hard enough to sort out a three day camping trip!

Ahh congrats! Totally understandable, take your time :)

[Jenn]

Thank you :)

[Stormy]

Hi everyone

[Stormy]

If it's ok with everyone am I ok to claim the last two letters

[Karen]

Absolutely. I think Andy had already popped you down for them on the spreadsheet (link at the top).

Cool I've added that to the review page also I am going to finish another 4 Comics by the end of the week so that's another 8 points plus another letter sorry Comics is all I can manage at the minute with a lot of stress at work

[Karen]

Sorry to hear that work is stressful, Natalie. As for reading, anything helps so go for it.

[Stormy]

Karen wrote: "Sorry to hear that work is stressful, Natalie. As for reading, anything helps so go for it."

I can read comics a lot more quick then I can read a book so that should help in a way because I can power through I'm so quick and that means we can get the letters quicker yeah yeah I have stress and anxiety due to circumstances at my work I never used to have it before that

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Hello Team Violet, just to let you know that Denny has finished some books, but she is having problems with her computer and can't seem to get on Goodreads to update. I've let her know that she's okay to post her reviews when she gets back on, but I wanted you all to know that she's still reading ☺

[Karen]

Thanks for this Sarah. Denny's profile is set to private so don't think we can post reviews for her.

We may have to move Denny's books around until she gets her computer issues sorted.

[GridGirl]

You're all doing an amazing job! I'm still stuck with the book I started in July, but I hope I'll get a big chunk of it done on the weekend!

I don't think she's even managed to post her reviews because the Goodreads website just won't load ☹ Hopefully she can find a solution soon xx

[Karen]

13 letters at 50 points…that has to help!

[Dr. Andy]

damn that will definitely help lmao!!

[Stormy]

Karen wrote: "13 letters at 50 points…that has to help!"

Wow that's amazing we are going to get through the next board so quickly

[Stormy]

How is everyone today

[Stormy]

I should be finished with this by the end of the day is there any particular letter you would like me to go for I was thinking t

[Karen]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

Have a look on the spreadsheet. Currently, H is blank (no good for you, unless there's another language version) but Andy hasn't finished the reads put in for T and R so those could be moved to the next board if you finish before Andy does.

[Denny]

Sorry for the inconvenience team! I'm getting back on track here!

[Karen]

Denny wrote: "Sorry for the inconvenience team! I'm getting back on track here!"

Glad you've managed to get on Denny. Hope it is all sorted now. We're close to finishing board two once the reviews are posted for books down as finished on the spreadsheet.

[Sharon]

I am reading. I will be late with posting because of school. I will post my books tomorrow. It is my last week of classes, so I am just finishing everything up before graduation.

[Stormy]

Hey everyone I just finished my box what can I go for with the letters

[Karen]

Natalie wrote: "Hey everyone I just finished my box what can I go for with the letters"

T and R are free - Andy has books started for those letters but not finished. Are you able to see the spreadsheet?

Yeah I can see it but I'm not very good with spreadsheets I'll put them in as T

[Jenn]

I finally finished and reviews a book! haha. I put it on the next board since I saw all of the letters for the current one were taken :)

[Dr. Andy]

I’ll be adding all my reviews after work today! So we should be finishing this board today 🥳

[Stormy]

Hope you don't mind that I took the letter T

[Bayan]

hi guys! finishing up a few reviews now, sorry for late had a couple sleepless nights in a row..
Anyways, congrats Jen!
Also, wondering, do you guys have good audiobook recs? I just got a desk job and I'm alone in the office for four hours a day, with not many tasks, so I'm looking for good audiobooks to keep me entertained while I'm at it

Just had Not a Happy Family which worked well on audiobook. If you haven't read Piranesi, the audiobook was fantastic.

Jenn, you could post your review for R and swap it for the slot Andy has on the current spreadsheet. I don't think this one has been finished, but maybe see what Andy posts after work.
