No your fine I just wanted to make sure if I needed to do it before we go this whole month and the thread isn't made.

[Ana]

I've posted the sign up for the reading challenge

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Thank you Ana! I didn't know if you wanted to add the book prompt of

- RAB on one of your friend's TBR.
- RAB that is a re read
- RAB that is one of your favorites.

I like these prompts, I’ll add them now :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

I will add them to my team thread now!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Hey Ana! Are you wanting to buddy read Addicted to You? If your not ready then that is perfectly fine just in the mood to read it. If your not ready I am also in the mood for another book right now as well.

[Ana]

I’m not in the mood to read Addicted to You right now, I have a few other books that I’m more excited to read and I don’t want to get myself into a worse slump so if you want to read it go ahead because I honestly don’t know when I’ll want to read it 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Okay I just wanted to check with you! Thank you!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Hey Ana! I just wanted to give you a heads up that tomorrow during the day I'm going out of town and tomorrow night my family is putting on a dinner for the family for my birthday.

Can you monitor the group while I am gone?

[Ana]

Hey V yeah I can take care of the group :)
I hope you have a great birthday 🥳

Thank you Ana! I appreciate it! I might comment a little but I am trying to put the phone away tomorrow.

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Hey Ana! I’m back and thank you again for watching the group!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

I will create September's BOTM on July 30th, 2025!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Hey Ana! Do you need me to create the BOTM poll?

Just wanted to help you out and awwwh I'm glad you had a wonderful time!

[Ana]

Yeah I had a great time but it was also exhausting! 😅

Oh I bet... weddings are exhausting!

Yeah and so are the airplane rides and airports are crazy busy too and so much walking everywhere. But at the end of the day it was worth it :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Hows the poll coming along Ana? Please tell me we don't have a tie?

[Ana]

We have a tie for the two books that are winning but no tie for a third book. I’ll announce the winners in a couple of hours.

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Sounds good!

[Ana]

Nora goes off script and The inmate won the poll!! I will create the threads for the books tomorrow :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Sounds good!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Hey Ana! I just wanted to let you know I will be creating September's BOTM today!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

September's BOTM Nominations have been made!

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

September's BOTM poll has been made! Link is down below!

https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/3...

I am hoping since we have less options we don't have a tie and I am surprised we don't have that many options this month.

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Just wanted to check in with you.. do you want October's BOTM thread or need me to take it?

[Ana]

I’ll do the October BOTM, I’ll post the nomination thread on September 1st.

okay sounds good! I will let you take it then!

[Ana]

The October BOTM nomination thread has been created :)

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Thank you Ana!

[Ana]

I will create the threads for the BOTMs for October in a few hours.

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Sounds good!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Hello Ana! I just wanted to chat with you and see if we were doing another reading challenge or if we were taking a break?

[Ana]

I think since we’re about to step into October it might be the perfect time to do a spooky Halloween theme reading challenge no?

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Yes I think that would be perfect!

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

November's BOTM Suggestions are now up! Link is down below!

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Do we want a short or long challenge? I know since October is Halloween, November is Thanksgiving, and December is Christmas it's hard to want to make a short challenge or do we just make this one last till after Christmas?

[Ana]

I think it might be best to do a Halloween theme that will last until late November-early December and then do a Christmas theme

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Okay we can do that then!

[Ana]

Did you want to create the new reading challenge or do you want me to do it?

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

I’m fine with either. You let me know!

[Ana]

Since I did the last one, you can go ahead and do this one :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

Got it! I will create it then! I might not be able to get it up till Wednesday but I will at least type it up so all I have to do is copy and paste it in a thread on Wednesday.

[Ana]

Okay sounds good :)

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

I promise Wednesday I will get it up!

[Ana]

Here are some ideas that I had for some prompts if you want them:

Book prompts:
RAB that has witches in it.
RAB that has vampires in it.
RAB that has werewolves in it.
RAB that has ghosts in it.
RAB that is a cozy mystery.

Activity prompts:
Read while it's raining outside.
Go to a pumpkin patch farm.
Go to a fall festival.
Read with a candle lit.
Read at a bonfire.

[Yeehawwlovesbooks]

I can do that and will add those!
