R2 TEAM THREAD: Team #3 Triple Threat [SECOND PLACE] Showing 51-100 of 1,005

[Michelle]

My plan was to read my book for the free space this week or next for that reason! Although I guess nobody can win until at least week 5 if they are very lucky... I'm hoping it goes on a bit longer though. Was it 10 shelves called the last time round? Did any other team come close to getting a line?

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

I think by the time the last shelf was called about 4 teams could of won, depending on which shelf was announced.

[Michelle]

That makes for a more exciting game then :)

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yep, it was exciting. Everybody was hanging on the randomiser's lips, so to speak.

Oh. Yeah, I use the GR app on my iPhone. Mostly at night when I'm too lazy to grab my iPad or get on my computer to use the "full site". It's convenient when updating my reading status, a quick glance of what people are reading, etc. But, for replying on groups, etc. I prefer to use web browser and full site.

LOL! That we were! So many teams were soooo close. :D

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Just an FYI for those in the US. I'm about 14 hrs ahead of EST, so when I post shelf announcements on Sunday, my time, it'll be Saturday for you. :)

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Important Rule Change: All members of your team must read, rate and review a book in order to receive a shelf stamp

Let the game begin!

Our First Shelf is: 'part-of-a-series'
DIRECT LINK: 'part-of-a-series'

Good luck & Happy Reading!

REMINDER: Everyone may now start their free space read as well, if they want

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yay, and we're off and racing!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

For the Part of a series shelf I'll be reading

For the Freespace shelf I'll be reading

Back at the beginning of the thread there will be the full list of who's reading what.

[Michelle]

WooHoo!

[Amanda A]

I'm planning on reading

Part of a series -

Free Space -

[Michelle]

So I dropped my kids of at my Mum's earlier and I had some free time...

I read Frostbite, I can honestly say I preferred it to the first book (which I read last night). I'm giving it four stars. It's a YA book so there was teenage angst but I felt as if there was character development in this book and more depth. I felt for Rose in this book and I can see why so many people rave about this series. I can't say I'll read them all but I do own the next one too :)

I am going to read lara adrian's midnight rising. How do you add the picture to your comments?

[Michelle]

if you click add book/author just above the comment box it will give you a search option - just type in the name of your book (at the bottom you can change it from link to cover depending on what you want) and click add when you see the book you want.

Hope that makes sense :)

Duuuh me! Thanks!!!

[♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡]

Thanks for the info! I had a fuh moment for sure. This is my test!

[Michelle]

Happy to help! :)

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Sassy, I'm assuming is for the Part of a Series Shelf. Enjoy, I gave that one 4 stars I think.

OK, got everyone so far.

To see our pretty list go to Full Book List

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

And congrats to Michelle for being our first read book star!

[♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡]

Thanks for the info. I missed the R1. Don't know how, but oh well... I am going to change my profile picture to my books clumped together.

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Looking forward to the new look Sassy!

Just to put the info in easy steps for our newbies -

Once the shelf is announced, pick your book
announce it here
read it
come back here and rate, date and small review of book (only needs a few sentences, just like Michelle did)

Wait for the rest of the team to do the same and then we get the shelf stamp.

[Shelleyrae]

Grr I didn't get an email notification, sometimes it seems so random

Okay so for Part of a Series I choose
This Side of the Grave

and for my free space I choose
River Marked

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

OK I've updated you Shelleyrae.

[Shelleyrae]

BTW - I use the Goodreads app on my iPod but since I don't have internet out and about I use an app that's works with my book organising software - Book Collectorz

[Crystal S]

My part of a series book is

And my free space book is probably going to be

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Updated Crystal, yay!

[Nici]

For the first shelf I am reading hex hall.

[Nici]

For the free shelf I will read at graves end.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Wow! I really gotta get movin'. One read already?! I still haven't even picked my books TBR. LOL!

Great start, Threat³! Good luck & Happy Reading!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Thanks Steph! Love the Threat³ ;)

[♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡]

great! so does that mean we can start earlier! I changed my profile picture, so it may throw you off. sorry.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

:) Couldn't resist, sorry for the name tweak.

Love the stacks, Sassy!

As soon as the shelf is announced, everyone can choose their book and start reading. If you happen to read a book before a shelf is announced and then see it on that shelf, it won't count. Make sense?

Happy reading!

My stacks are actually double stacked. They are all my to-read books.

Also! Thanks for the clarification! I was wondering!! It makes sense to me now!

[Nici]

I finished hex hall! Good book! I need to review it yet though

[Sherri]

Hi guys! I'll pick my book when I get home tomorrow. I've been traveling since Thursday and theis internet connection is WAY TOO SLOW for going through the number of pages to find a book.

Sorry for the delay!

You're welcome. :D

[♡ Sassy ~ Amy ♡]

Just finished my first shelf book (Edited)3/06/11 and gave it★★★★★It was very good! I wish I found lara adrian months ago. This one was better than the other one I read, but I am guessing they get better the further along the series it gets.

Is anyone suffering from cross over like me? I read part of a series, and go to another one, and think of characters from another book and wonder what happened to them? then "oops! wrong series" comes to mind.

[Steph, Serious series addict]

LOL! Now that I haven't had happen, but I can see how it could. :D


Don't forget to include your ★ rating for your reads.

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

No probs Sherri.

Sassy, cause of time differences etc, can you post the date as well as ★ rating, when ya finish a book. Thanks ;)

Uhhhhh... how do i do that? Obviously my tech savvy ways do not extend beyond my ebay and websites!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Saasy, when you post just say what the date is that you finished reading, and for the ★ rating - cut and paste. LOL. Easy-peasy.

Thank you Sandra! I am so losing it! My name is really Amy, but since there were a few already when I first started goodreads, I wanted to make me different. Not to be a secret, just to differentiate.

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

No probs, Amy :)
