If it was started after 15 May, then it counts in the round you finish it, even if you are just reading the last 2 pages in the next round.

[Suzanne]

I volunteer to read:
Night of the Living Trekkies

But I'm fine reading for a different phase too.

[Sophie, The other one]

Night
Night Shield

Are my options. Happy to read either or neither and can probably be back up depending what other people have put it.



With what other people have put in, are you able to start reading them in just over a week and get them finished within the week?

[Melindam]

I can read either of the 2 books I listed during battle week.

[Stephanie]

The random selection was Melinda’s The Night Watch.

[Melindam]

Thank you, Stephanie. I commit to read it during Battle week.

[Teddie]

District 9 has battled back with :
The Atcho Conspiracy
(crazily enough one of their members had on their TBR shelf!)

So, books with:
ACYxxxxxx
RACY xxxxx
PIRACY xxx

Looks like a good round for spicy book lovers :D

[Melindam]

This is just a suggestion, but I found this cosy, if someone would be interested to read this. :)

A Cyclist's Guide to Crime & Croissants

[Teddie]

a few others...

ACY
A Cyber Affair
A Cyborg's Tale
A Cygnet's Tale

Or onto RACY?

Thanks ;)

[Vicki]

I don't know if I will need to read or be able to read for the night books, but if I am needed to read one, I can read Night Embrace. I am already reading Verse and Vengeance so I'm not even sure if I can read 2 books, but we need 10 night books, right?

[Melindam]

Vicki,

I have claimed the Night book, so you don't need to read that. :)

[Vicki]

If we end up with ACY books, I'd be happy to read A Cyclist's Guide to Crime & Croissants

[Vicki]

Melindam wrote: "Vicki,

OHHHHHHHHH, Okay, I'm still figuring this one out. lol So only ONE person reads a night book? Only one an ACY book (if that's what we end up with)?

[Sophie, The other one]

I can read:
A Cyclists guide to crime and croissants or A cyber affair

Both are genres I enjoy and are Kindle Unlimited which helps!

A Cyber Affair would be my preference.

[Sophie, The other one]

Yes, that's the plan. It's nice to have someone else who can access the book and read it in case life goes crazy for whoever has volunteered.

[Stephanie]

Let’s go with Sophie’s Cyber affair.

[Lauri]

I volunteer as tribute! Uh, I mean I can be a backup person only because I need to get books from the library or read on Libby. Not all books are available as quickly as I would need them.
I do have about 80 books out right now, however…. :)

[Sophie, The other one]

Stephanie wrote: "Let’s go with Sophie’s Cyber affair."

Wonderful. I'm ready when that starts on Saturday

[Catherine]

Looks like the next book for district 9 is Air Raid but we can wait until it’s official

[Stephanie]

Always wait for the official announcement because things can always change.

[Melissa]

Hi District 7!

Our next book will be The Air Raid Book Club

[Sophie, The other one]

If we want a minimal overlap, I am prepared (if not overjoyed about the fact) Lube Job. I've read books by them before and they are perfectly readable.

[Melindam]

Sophie, don't read it if you don't want to. Trouble is, I don't think we are much better off with "club" either.

[Teddie]

lol - we should get our lub- and D1's ere- together - haha.

This is a tough one. I saw a couple other Lub- books, but I'm not seeing them at libraries or KU.

If Lube Job is not really appealing, I can read Club Dead?

[Melindam]

Tried to check titles with Club and found 2 thrillers only, one is called The Club which I don't feel keen about.
The other is titled The Club Dumas which actually sounds OK

[Teddie]

I agree - don't read something you don't want to read. I love the Sookie Stackhouse series, so I'm good with rereading that.


ETA: I'm also good with reading The Club Dumas - good find! NYPL has that as ebook and audio if we like that title better.

[Melindam]

Teddie for the rescue. ♡ :)

[Cecily]

I can read lub dub love on KU

[Stephanie]

Let’s go with Cecil’s Lub Dub Love. Btw that book looks really good I am putting on my tbr.

[Sophie, The other one]

Cecily, if you're definitely happy with Lub bub love then we can send it over.

[Cecily]

Sounds good to me :)

Ah, thank you for that clarification. I'm still figuring this all out.

Also, all of the battle books have been decided on and claimed, is that right?

[Sophie, The other one]

Nope, we're waiting on Stephanie to send our 4th choice to district 9, then when they respond we'll figure out our 5th book. So we've got 6 choices left to make.

[Melissa]

Greetings District 7!

Our next battle book will be Overnight Sensation

[Sophie, The other one]

Ion... Not loving these letter combinations

[Cecily]

I only is a good start to a few books

[Teddie]

I have Iona Iverson's Rules for Commuting on my tbr - I could read that.

[Melindam]

Sounds goo, Teddie. :)

[Melindam]

sorry..... I meant to type "good". :))

[Sophie, The other one]

Vicki
Melinda
Sophie
Cecily


This is who has volunteered so far, just so everyone knows!

[Catherine]

Good choice Teddy

[Catherine]

Melindam wrote: "sorry..... I meant to type "good". :))"

Hoping their respond book comes back so we can choose another one again soon

[Suzanne]

"I Only" starts some books too.
I could read I Only Roast the Ones I Love: Busting Balls Without Burning Bridges if wanted, but I'm fine with us going for Teddie's book!

[Stephanie]

Alright, going with Teddie's Iona Iverson's Rules for Commuting. Always good to get a book off your TBR.

[Teddie]

Sounds good! I'll be ready.

5 down, 5 more to go!

[Melissa]

Hi District 7!

We are going to be reading In Good Company next.

[Cecily]

Books starting with "any" shouldn't be too hard

[Suzanne]

I can read Anything You Can Imagine
or
Any Duchess Will Do

[Stephanie]

Do you have a preference?
