Team No Names Bingo Thread

Hi Jen! Do you want us to have a team name or not? I’m good either way :)

[Jen]

We could be No Names that’s pretty rebel 🤣 it’s hard to be rebellious at pushing 40 so I can take it where I get it 🤣🤣

[Ana, Moderator]

😂😂 done

[Ana, Moderator]

Which prompts do you want to read?

[Jen]

I’m pretty quick so do you want to let me know which ones you want and I’ll start on the rest? Or we can just split it down the middle. Whatever you want!

[Ana, Moderator]

Okay I already have some idea of which books I could read for the prompts:

Book with a one-word title.
Summer romance.
Finish a series.
Read a book in a duology.
Magical school setting. school setting.

Obviously I’ll read more than that but those are the ones I can think of right now :)

[Jen]

Awesome! I’ll start working on the rest and when you get those done, we can divvy up what’s left!

Okay sounds good!

[Jen]

I just started the Housemaid's Secret so that will work for thriller and today I am going to do Love and Other Killers for Novella.

[Ana, Moderator]

I’m going to start reading Nothing Like the Movies and originally I was thinking of using the finish series prompt but since it’s also set in college I don’t know if instead I should use the school setting prompt 🤷🏻‍♀️😅

If I use the school setting prompt, do you want to use the magical school prompt or not really?

[Jen]

I have always wanted to read the zodiac academy so I can take that if you want to take school setting!

[Ana, Moderator]

I’ve also really wanted to start Zodiac Academy but I’m in the middle of so many series that I don’t think I’m prepared for the many books in that series just yet lol but yeah you can take the magical school prompt and I’ll use the regular school prompt :)

Thanks! I am a to do list free so I loveee lists lol!

[Ana, Moderator]

Same I love doing lists and organizing everything lol

[Ana, Moderator]

I just finished a summer romance :)

[Jen]

Awesome! In the next 3 days probably I’ll have over 400 pages and characters that travel. Then I’m off Monday so I may be able to get 1 or 2 done depending on the lengths!

[Ana, Moderator]

I could use the over 500 pages for Quicksilver so that way we split the #pages prompts. Are you planning on reading either of the BOTMs for September? Because I’ve been debating which prompts to use for the books 😅

Books I want to read: (prompts that could be used for it)

Quicksilver (one-word title, fantasy, over 500 pages, BOTM)
American Royals (at least 5 years old, BOTM, on TBR for 1+ year)
Family (one-word title, at least 5 years old, on TBR for 1+ year)
The healer’s touch (historical fiction)
A curse for true love (finish a series, fantasy)
Rebel witch (duology, finish a series, fantasy)

[Jen]

I have a book for each prompt item already so let me know when you start one and I will take it off!

I know for sure you can cross off

Buddy Read (I’m starting on next week) (Housemaid 3)
Character Travels (Let’s Make a Scene)
Over 400 Pages (All the Ugly and Wonderful Things)
Released in 2025 (Heart Strings)
Chose by a friend (my author friend asked me to beta read)

I’m struggling on BOTM, if either of them is probably so Addie LaRue but I’ve heard such mixed reviews

[Ana, Moderator]

Okay sounds good.

Personally I enjoyed Addie LaRue but I do know for some people it’s kind of slow 🤷🏻‍♀️ if you don’t have to read it then I’ll see if I use the prompt for American Royals.

[Ana, Moderator]

I just completed the Finish a series prompt :)

[Jen]

Awesome! I have about 3 chapters left and I will have finished the magical school setting then hopefully by tomorrow I will have finished the recommended by a friend for an arc

[Jen]

The ones I have coming up are:
Made into movie/tv
Buddy Read

I am going to read Wild Reverence so that can count as the 500 pages if you want to mark of Quicksilver as BOTM since I dont think I am going to get that one

[Ana, Moderator]

Okay you can use the over 500 page and I’ll use the BOTM.

Want to make sure the last updated list looks right on your end?

[Ana, Moderator]

We haven’t done the duology prompt yet, instead I did the school setting prompt.

[Jen]

I updated it. I had the feeling something was off I just couldn't place it! :)

Thanks girlfriend. I copied the wrong one yet again 🤦‍♀️

I’m about to finish the Tv/Movie then I was thinking of starting Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. Should I use that for number in the title or historical fiction- i see you had on for historical fiction on your list but I didn’t want to assume 😀

[Ana, Moderator]

No worries!

You can use the number in title one and the book I’m starting today will be historical fiction :)

I just finished The Scarlet Alchemist (on TBR for 1+ years)

I’m also very close to finishing another book but sadly it doesn’t go with any of our remaining prompts so do you mind if I use the free read prompt?

[Jen]

No that’s not a problem at all, all check marks count! I have the same problem lol. I finished 2 other books that are going to count for nothing but they were almost up on my Libby app so I had to finish them!

I’ll add the 2025 release tomorrow and am starting the fantasy one and number one next week. I go on vacation the following week so I am trying to go hard!

[Jen]

And sadly both books are not covers I love of course
