2012 February - Pick It For Me! Challenge

[Dee]

and drive the organizers nuts while we wait ;)

[Rishika]

yeah even i have signed up for the challege , even i am waiting, s what do we have to do in this challege?

[Vi]

I just noticed the time and whoever I'm picking for - I'm sorry but my picks will be after 30th only. Unfortunately, I'm traveling on the 29th so I can't do picks then. Time diff, sorry!

[Vi]

Rishika, Nairabell will assign a person (pickee) you are supposed to recommend books (picks) for. At the same time, someone else will do the recs for you.

On the same day, she will also post a list of categories/rules on the 28th. You need to recommend at least a book not read by your pickee for each category or rule. Generally, there are about 6-9 categories posted every month and usually, half of the books are from your pickee's TBR and the other half recommended will be new-to-them. To complete the challenge, you only need to read one of the books recommended to you. There is a link to the FAQ in the first post. You can refer to it as well.

Hope that helps!

[Rishika]

Another 16 hours to go! Not that I'm counting, of course. Just an FYI.

[Tuğçe]

16hrs? oh it's gonna be right at midnight here! Good morning all!

[Desperado]

Sorry for waiting to the last minute. I STILL haven't received my book for this month's PIFM from the library yet (even though I requested it from ILL in December 2011). *sigh*

I'm in. I'll just be reading two PIFM books next month.

ETA: I'll be single in the sense that I won't have a boyfriend for V-day. I'm probably going to have my tongue down some guy's throat though....

[Megan]

I'm in and single

[Kami]

Should be all up when I get home from work today. Woohoo!

But whoever is my incredibly lucky pickee won't have to wait too long... I'll be back!
