[Tessa]

I'm ready :) . Hope to get enough time to write reviews for the books, not just random comments XD.

[Arys]

[Jamie]

[Kelly]

go team! how many books is everyone planning to read?

[[deleted user]]

Ready! :)

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Well done guys, all your team members have now checked in ☺

[Jamie]

Between 8-15 books is what I hope to do that qualify for this reading challenge. A lot really depends on a how I adapt to a new work schedule just thrown at me this week.

Sounds like a good plan. That stinks about a new work schedule, or maybe is it for the better? I feel your pain though, I'm moving this weekend so I'll have to adapt to a new library!

[Taylor]

I am ready! Thanks for letting me join! I plan to read about 9 books but could read more or less depending on school work this month but I know I am going on a 3 day field trip and will be on the bus 7 hours for 2 days so should be able to knock out a few books

[[deleted user]]

We start tomorrow, right? I'll try to read between 8--10 books, because I'm sttarting college this week so I hope I'm not too busy to read :)

[Taylor]

Does anyone want to do some buddy reads? Just give me some books you might want to read and I will tell you if I have them :)

[Arys]

I'm going to try for 8 or more. And I'd enjoy doing some buddy reads. :)

[Taylor]

I know I'm planning to re-read Insurgent before the movie comes out so if anyone wants to do it as a buddy read let me know :)

[Taylor]

Here are a few books I plan to read this month:
Insurgent by Veronica Roth
Ten Things We Did & Probably Shouldnt Have by Sarah Mylknowski
Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally
Deadly Cool by Gemma Halliday

Those are the ones I want to read for sure but I am obviously going to read more :)

[Taylor]

I just posted my review of The DUFF so we are now on the board haha

[[deleted user]]

I'm going to try to also read 8 or more books too.

[Kelly]

yay to everyone reading books! I also love the idea of doing buddy reads - double points for the same amount of reading? absolutely. I'll try to start cranking out reviews tomorrow, it's unfortunate the month starts with me moving, it's taking up a lot of time!

[Taylor]

I have spring break this month and also that 3 day school trip like I mentioned but I have been watching The Vampire Diaries and The 100 so I havent been doing much reading!! All these temptations

[[deleted user]]

So many books and series, so little time. I feel ya.

[Tessa]

Hey guys, post here the books you are planning on reading. Maybe we can do some buddy reads together. It will give us more points XD.

Taylor and Erin, good job on already finishing a book! ^_^

[[deleted user]]

The Secret's series (6) and Ruin Me by Jessica Sorensen.

A Girl by Any other name, by M.K Schiller

Tempting the bodyguard by J. Lynn (and maybe the first two in the series).

I just finished Untamed by Jessica, and I'm posting the review this afternoon!

[Tessa]

Well, here is my list: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

Let me know if you guys are interested in any :) .

[Tessa]

We're already 12 points behind. *cry*

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Don't worry Tessa, it's still early in the challenge, anything could happen ☺

[Kelly]

we're doing a bit better! I'm going to look at the upcoming buddy reads to see if there are any I could hop into for an extra point

[Arys]

Hi Tessa! I'll read Never Never and Cruel Beauty with you as a buddy read. :)

[[deleted user]]

Tessa, I can read The Picture of Dorian Gray with you?

[Kelly]

[Jamie]

Looking to start Captive within the next few days (between the 13th and the 20th) if anyone wants to do a buddy read with me, let me know. I posted this in the forum for buddy reads as well but my group gets priority for date choice if someone wants to join me.

Also, just finished my second book for the month and will be reviewing it tomorrow, after I get off work. But for now I need sleep

[Sarah Elizabeth]

We chasers are not doing much chasing at the moment, so we're going to mix things up a bit. The lowest scoring of the 'serious' teams is going to be disbanded, and members will then be placed on the other serious teams. The 'Just for Fun' teams will be combined.


The lowest scoring 'serious' team is currently S5. Team members will reallocated as follows:

Erin & Eli = S1
Taylor, Jamie & Tana = S2
Tessa = S3
Kelly = S4
Arys = S6

Points already earned will be added to the new teams scores.
