Hay everyone, so excited to get started. I'm a Newbie to shelf Bingo so you'll have to bare will me. I'm pretty sure I understand everything though. What do you all think of the team name Reading Robins? Looking forward to hearing others suggestions for team names x

[Suzanne]

Hello! I'm excited to get started too! I haven't picked out books for each shelf yet, I'm just going to pick something as the shelves are called. Can we go ahead and start reading our free space book or do we have to wait until the 17th? I have no idea what to name our team...it's 8:30am here so I'm still working on my coffee. I'll have to ponder it today...

[Suzanne]

Hey Ana! Welcome to BSB! I played last round and I had lots of fun! It's pretty easy to play and if you have any questions just ask! Everyone's super helpful and nice!

You have to wait until the first shelf is announced (official 1st day of the game) before starting your free space read.

Midu wrote: "yep! and missing my team mates hehe"

Awww!! Now we'll have to resort to taunting each other from afar (jk)!! Miss you too!

[Midu]

hehehe that sounds good too!

[Paris]

So some Team Name ideas that I had while trying to slack off at work:

Series Sirens
Reading Rebels
Bingo Bettys
The Lovely Ladies of Reading
Reading Addicts

[[deleted user]]

I like Series Sirens

[[deleted user]]

I've been browsing the shelves to get an ideas of what I would like to read and I have just added LOADS of books to my TBR pile, and we haven't even started Bingo yet LOL

[Paris]

Ana Willow wrote: "I've been browsing the shelves to get an ideas of what I would like to read and I have just added LOADS of books to my TBR pile, and we haven't even started Bingo yet LOL"

I'm doing the same thing. Ny TBR pile is already a Mt. Everest size mountain, but I love adding more books to it. I probably will never, ever run out of books to read and most of that is thanks to Goodreads and this group in particular.

[Sarah]

Hi ladies!! I'm really excited to be on a team with all of you!!

As far as Team names go I really don't mind.

I was thinking of incorporating our team number in it:

Double the Dames, Double the Trouble
Cover Two Cover

I also like Series Sirens which was suggested already.

:)

[[deleted user]]

I'm thinking that either Cover Two Cover or Series Sirens would be good Team Names. What does everyone else thing, and any takers for Team Captain??

[Paris]

Either of those two names works for me.

I am more than willing to volunteer for Team Captain if no one else is interested in doing it. I'm a newbie at this, but I'm pretty much on Goodreads every day.

[[deleted user]]

So we can use our team number, shall we go for Cover two Cover then? And I am more than happy to give my vote if you want to give Team Leader ago Paris? What does everyone one else think?????

[Deidre]

So how did you find out your team? As a newbie, I have been searching all over, and just stumbled across this, thankfully team 2, so I know where I belong.

[[deleted user]]

I looked through all 18 team threads this morning, starting at 18 LOL and worked my way back until I got to 2 and found my name. How many of us are Newbies then?? Deidre, Paris and Myself?

[Paris]

Deidre, this morning I just kept clicking on teams until I saw my name. Not sure if there was an easier way to do it though. I was half asleep when I did it and our team was half way down the page already.

Glad you found us!

[Sarah]

I've played before. It's a lot of fun! I'm so excited for all of you to have a chance to play.

I'm good with Paris to be Team Captain, if she's comfortable with that. Otherwise, I'll volunteer since I've played before.

I like Series Siren or Cover Two Cover. We can vote between those two, if those are the top two picks.

[Paris]

I'm totally cool with being Team Captain, but I totally understand if ya'll would be more comfortable having someone more experienced handle the gig.

As far as team names, I'm sorta partial to Series Sirens, but I like Cover Two Cover and I like that it has our team number in it so I vote for Cover Two Cover.

[Deidre]

What does a team captain do? I guess I'd want to know that before a decision is made.

I kind of like Cover Two Cover also.

[Deidre]

Or even Cover 2 Cover...

[Paris]

The Team Captain is basically the go to person between Steph and the team. So if we have questions, concerns and when we need our Bingo card stamped, the team captain would be the one to contact Steph.

I like Cover 2 Cover too. Either spelling is cool with me.

[[deleted user]]

Cover 2 Cover good with me

[[deleted user]]

Are we all agreed on Captain Paris??? I'm trying to decide on my Free read, hoping to get it done this week with the first shelf read, I think the sooner we all do the free read, the sooner we get our stamp:0) My list is nearly complete, how is everyone else doing with theirs? Are you doing a list, or just going random when the shelves are called??

[Sarah]

I good with Captain Paris.

I haven't looked at the Free Space reads yet, but I will today. I agree, the sooner we get the free space done the better. I don't come up with a list. I have a list of books I plan on reading each month. Once the shelf is called I will look at what I have to read for the month and see if any of those are on the shelf, if they are not then I pick something else.

ETA: for the Free Space I will probably be reading Full Moon Rising by Keri Arthur

[Paris]

I've been working on a list based on the books I already have on hand and what's on the shelves just to have a little preparedness only cause I'm super anal like that. Half the time I'll probably pick something else lol. I'm ready to go with my Free Space read and I agree that we should get that out of the way as soon as we can.

Mine's gonna be Shadow's Fall by Dianne Sylvan. I'm really glad I decided not to read that so I could finish The Golden Lily before tonight's book signing.

As far as team captain and team name goes, I'll be at a wedding reception and then the book signing for the majority of the day. But I'll check in here when I get back and if Suzanne and Deidre are good with both then I'll let Steph know.

[[deleted user]]

For my free read I'm going to go with I've been given this in paperback from a friend and I only have this one in the series, but if I like it, then I will get the others on Ebook when funds allow it. I prefer to read on my ereader now, and i thought I would always love my paperbacks.

[Sarah]

The first shelf has been called! It's young-adult-paranormal. If you need the link you can go check out the Shelf Announcements thread, I am going to be reading Hourglass by Myra McEntire

[[deleted user]]

Right, I'm off to bed now ( it's 11:30pm here in the UK) but before I go i thought i would let you know what I will be reading for the first called shelf YA. which my daughter has in paper back and will be thrilled I will finally be reading it, followed by as my free read. I should get both of these done before the next shelf is called :0) Night all, see you all tomorrow/later depending on where in the world you are.

[Deidre]

I am going to read the calling - Kelley Armstrong.The Calling

[Paris]

So excited to get started. I'm gonna read and then for my free space. Happy reading ladies!!

[Suzanne]

I'm good with Cover two Cover and with Paris being captain!

[Suzanne]

I'm going to do for our first shelf! Still not sure what to do for my free space though so I'll keep thinking about that one.

[Deidre]

So I finished my book The Calling for the first shelf. Now what exactly do I do?

[Christina (AKA Babbling)]

Give it a rating (1-5 stars)
Review it - it doesn't have to be anything long or insanely in depth. ;-). Something more than "I like it" or "It was ok.". Tell us what you liked/didn't like about the book, anything that really stood out for you (things like that). If it's part of series, you could also mention if you'll continue with it, etc.

I hope that helps! :D

Happy reading! And good luck!

IO do that here in the team thread? That was really what I wanted to know.

Yep. ;-) Right here.

(Your captain will eventually link it in her tracking post so the mods can efficiently confirm all have completed the shelf).

[Deidre]

This is book 2 in the YA series the Gathering by Kelley Armstrong. Book two shows that it exists in the same world as the Cabal from her main series. I like this series much much better that the other YA she did. So I would give this ***1/2.

Read Jun 17 2012

One irritation: this series is set in Canada, but the proof readers didn't bother to look up what the word for a two dollar coin is. So they called it a "toonie."
I guess that means it has a picture of a toon on it, as opposed the the real world, where there is a loon on it.

[[deleted user]]

Wow Deidre, that was quick :0)

YAY Suzanne, we are both reading the same book :0) I'm half way through, thought it was slow going to start, but it's pick up. How are you finding it so far??

I think she's the first person in the game to post a review. :D

Off to an excellent start!
