Team Terrifying - Chat

[Courtney]

In my opinion in challenges like this the spreedsheet just makes it harder because every book gives you bonuses and people read faster then others. Thats why I do list for challenges like this, but of everyone wants to do one I would be for it.


Also I finished and . I gotta go do mommy things now ,but hope to start sometime today.

[Ashley W]

I'm not opposed to a spreadsheet but how would it be different than the chart that gets posted with scores?

[Char]

Well, we would still have to do the completion posts.. But it would be easier to keep a note of what tasks we need to complete to finish a block and consequently finish a grid, instead of going back and forth. I can try making one but I can do that only on Monday..

[Dannii]

I'm happy to go with the majority concerning a SS :)

I still have a few reviews to post after a busy few days. Hoping for a lazy weekend to fly through some more books. I have a ton of quick thrillers and horrors I want to get to.

[Courtney]

Got about a hour in a half left of . Im going to use the Possessed block for it.

[Courtney]

is posted. I might not be able to get to tonight though. If not I will be starting it tomorrow morning.

I'll read The Graveyard Book with you if you want to BR it? :)

[Danique]

I've finished 2 books but haven't had the time to post my reviews yet, hopefully tomorrow!

Its a GBR so its already set up. You want the thread?

[Dannii]

Oooh, silly me. Thank you. I've got it now :)

[Courtney]

Im starting for the Ghosts block.

[Courtney]

This is what we need to finish the board:

Curse
Hell
Lost
Zombies

[Ashley W]

i just finished werewolves. I can post post review later.

[Courtney]

Finished .


I also updated the list above so we all know whats left to cover.

[Courtney]

I found a couple short stories that I can do. I stopped reading the series because they didnt reach the page count, but they do now. I always soar through them too so hopefully I can get time to start them soon.

[Danique]

I just finished horror! Finally posted my first review of the month, it has been crazy slow!

[Dannii]

Hey guys, I have eight reviews to post from the past few days. I'll get them up tomorrow :) I had to have a COVID test earlier and to self-isolate until I get my results back. That means I won't be working or doing much of anything but reading for the next 3/4 days.

I hope you’re doing alright Dannii! Have fun reading though :)

[Ashley W]

Danni Oh no. Hope you aren't sick. But yah for reading!

[Dannii]

Ahh bless you both. I'm doing okay. I'm 99% positive it is just a bout of flu but had to check to be safe :)

I am glad that you get more reading time but I hope that you aren't sick. -hugs-

I hope you'll feel better soon! And that it is indeed just the flu!

[Ashley W]

Definitely finishing today and probably and that one is a buddy read.
Still chipping away at It. It's gotten so good though. I may pull an all-nighter. :)

[Ashley W]

Hey, guys. I just got Magic :)

[Ashley W]

And just got Aliens with Serpent and Dove :)

[Courtney]

Yay! This is all we need to finish the board again:

Curse
Hell
Lost
Zombies

[Reed]

Which category would my book Xenocide fit under for this group?

Reed wrote: "Which category would my book Xenocide fit under for this group?"

Have you looked through the descriptions? Most books can fit into more than one.

[Danique]

Doing good Ashley!

[Reed]

Not yet Ashleigh where are the descriptions exactly?

Hey, guys. Just got Hell.
We just need:

We are done with grid 2.. The 3 books I finished this week worked perfectly for the 3 leftover blocks

Will do!

[Ashley W]

Just finished
I'll start over with Lost

[Ashley W]

Hey, guys. Just finished 'Fantasy'. I'm reading right now for 'Scary'.

[Dannii]

Hey team :) I received a negative covid test results but I still have to isolate for a further 8 days as I have all three symptoms. Lots of reading time for me still. I have a ton of reviews I've been feeling too drained to write but I have been reading a lot already. I'll get everything updated tomorrow :)

[Ashley W]

That's good news, Dannii!

I just finished for Scary and I'm now reading for Magic.

[Reed]

I don't see the categories for my book to go under once i'm done someone please help me

[Dannii]

I'll wait until tomorrow to see what blocks are left and slot my books in then. I've read quite a few super short reads but as we only need 50 page books for a block I can hopefully fill quite a few :)

I also have about three books that can fill the Possessed block with the double SS they contain. I was thinking of using the block for all of them as I think that's the trickiest to fulfil.

[Reed]

Good idea💡

I have two shorter books whose author is Jessica, so if you need to use them for something else, that's fine. Mine fit multiple categories, so either way works :)

There is a sparkly HOW IT WORKS and an orange grid beneath that with each categories. Descriptions of each category is right under that.

My books are all over 50 pages so they count alone. I have three graphic novels I've already combined for a block too, sorry :(
