Sarah am I allowed to claim for sheet 2 or do we have to wait for sheet 1 to be completed? I tried to post 2 new reviews but Maddie asked to take down.

I just saw your message on the reviews. Thank you Sarah!

Do you want me to send you a message when we open board two so you don't have to keep checking back?

That would be great Sarah! I removed the reviews and also removed them on sheet 2. I added them to the banked books section! Thank you for helping me :)

I've got some smaller books to read and a graphic novel to add with the other one.
It's just has been really hectic the past week with work and studying, but I'm forcing myself to make some time to read and clear my head.

So, we've only got one week to go until the end of the challenge. Maybe we can focus on section 5 with only 7 books to go? So that could be another section finished? What do you all think?


message 164: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90980 comments Mod
Sure, I'll work on section 5 today x


Yesha- Books Teacup and Reviews (booksteacupandreviews) | 729 comments Hi, is there a way to count pages for audiobook?


message 166: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90980 comments Mod
For reference, books which are only available as audiobooks can be converted to a page count by doing the following:

Start with how long the audiobook is -
Eg: 4 hours 32 minutes

Convert this to minutes -
Eg: (4 x 60) + 32 = 272 minutes

Audible says that their audiobooks run at roughly 150 words per minute. So multiply the number of minutes by 150 to get the number of words -
Eg: 272 x 150 = 40,800 words

The average paperback has 250 words per page, so divide the total number of words by 250, to get how many pages.
Eg: 40,800 / 250 = 163.2 (so 164 pages)

This number can then be scored at the normal YA/Adult rate of 1 point per 50 pages


Yesha- Books Teacup and Reviews (booksteacupandreviews) | 729 comments Okay, thanks! I listened 3 audiobooks so I'll post review and all tonight.

Can someone do task 47? Than that section will be completed too.

I've got a book that I was going to read for number 47, I just haven't gotten around to it yet x

Yesha- Books Teacup and Reviews (booksteacupandreviews) | 729 comments I have posted all reviews for this challenge and updated it on spreadsheet. I'm reading one more book but won't be posting review as I'm going on vacation. If I can write 4 updates I'll submit it for the challenge on last day.

Is anybody buddy reading a book for descriptions 67/68? If not we should be avoiding that line because without the buddy read we won't be able to complete it x

My buddies aren't in our team, so I won't be able to claim those!


message 177: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90980 comments Mod
I think we'll probably just have to move the ones we've completed on that line to another line that we can complete x

Just so everyone knows what is happening, I have messaged those people who haven't posted on their team review thread in the last 2 weeks, just to ask them to please post any remaining reviews they may have before the end of the challenge x

I have 2 - maybe 3, depending on the next days - reviews to post, I'll hopefully write them either tomorrow or Monday!


message 182: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90980 comments Mod
I've updated the spreadsheet a bit, and I've moved a couple of reviews around so that we've nearly completed sections 9 and 13 x

My graphic novel in message 87 is still on hold, but I'm reading another graphic novel, so they can be combined for the points.

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90980 comments Mod
We still have like 2 and a half days ☺

I know, but I think the graphic novel will be my last read of this month. Maybe a small book, but I've got an exam on Friday.

Brigia | 933 comments Hi team, I'm really sorry I've been MIA this month - I did read, but got really behind in writing reviews. I posted a couple books now, though and have 4-5 more that I'll get to today and tomorrow.
