Ariel (aellen) | 79 comments Goodreads has completely stopped giving me ANY notifications. Welp - I guess I am creating a spreadsheet to keep track of threads. LOL

Shan ~A~ | 1399 comments Posting my book now.

Bubbles | 197 comments Hello everyone!

I noticed that people aren't getting notifications and that there have not been books really added to the spreadsheet recently. PLEASE make sure you add books as you finish them so we have plenty of options for prompts and salary.

Thanks!!

Bubbles | 197 comments Hi guys.

So we have to pay rent to Gothic Groundskeeper and the prompt we have is to read a book with a character named Adeline. Anyone happen to have read one yet?

I've been wanting to read The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue but haven't had a chance yet...

Bubbles | 197 comments Oh! I didn't realize Adeline was her name lol. Thought it was just Addie

Bubbles | 197 comments Susan, we have 3 days before it is due. If you can do it, great, if not, I can do that one done. I have the audiobook for it. Just let me know :)

Bubbles | 197 comments How are you doing on The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue Susan?

I think there was a misunderstanding. I had posted I'll let you go ahead and read it for this one. Thanks!.

If you need me to, I'll begin the audio book ASAP.

It's all good. No worries. My bad :)

Bubbles | 197 comments Okay let's do an update since I messed up our last turn.

We received an extension for our last role since I can't read apparently (I am SO SORRY Susan!) and I just finished The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue so we didn't have to have a penalty or anything. Although, I forgot how emotional that book is so I'm trying to stop crying lol.

We currently have 6 properties which is the lowest amount sadly but we are working on getting more. The dice have not been in our favor on that point lol.

We are 3rd in term of Net Worth though some of that is because one team already has a retirement account and I don't want to start one too early. Hoping to keep growing our book bank first to get the most points for the team.

I know that notifications have been acting up for a lot of people including myself so remember to just check the chat when you can.

Keep logging books and keep up the great work! You are all doing amazing and thank you for being patient with me.

No problem! I'm glad we were able to get our turn! I went on a road trip this weekend and listened to The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. I'm loving it! Can we post duplicate books? (Since you re-read it for us?)
