Hiya, Team Caps! Thanks for volunteering to guide your team through a round of BookShelf Bingo!

Your job, should you choose to accept it, will require a few things:
1 ~ Be our go-to person should we have any questions about your team
2 ~ Organize your teammate's weekly reads for each shelf/category so that the BSB Ninjas can quickly and easily verify and approve your stamp request(s)
3 ~ Encourage and motivate your team (you may also ask to borrow Judithe's whip whenever necessary)
4 ~ Post regularly to ensure your team is communicating and on track each week (Send them a PM and friendly poke if they haven't posted at least once a week, noted their book choice, and/or appear to have dropped out of webspace)
5 ~ Send us a PM (Steph, Sandra or Judithe) should you need us for any reason throughout the game

Hi all. I'm AH and I'm in Montreal - Eastern time zone. I've played a few rounds of Bingo and I can't wait to start. I'll be away from computer/wifi for a 2 week period in August but I should be able to catch up.

Hey everyone! I'm in Chicago/Central time. I love Bingo and am hoping this can help me get through a bunch of series I've been putting off. I haven't been reading as much as I'd like this summer but Bingo can be a great motivator. :)

Ezi! When it rains it pours! Twice on the same team now!

Hi all. I'm Anita and I'm on Denmark European time. It's my second time playing bingo here, and it was so much fun last time. I hope it will get me back to some series as well.

I guess we're waiting for Ezi to check in. Any ideas for team name?

Team Four the Win?

That's good. I wonder if Fantastic Four has been used yet.

Hi ya Babe!

Team names "4-Real" . I wish we could be Team Four-Tobias

Looks like we've been named.

Hey! Looks like you all have been named the same name as our team :D :D

when was that?

when was that?"

Not sure. I think it was a mistake - that's team 14's name.

BY WHOM? I want to be Four's babes (Tobias Eaton, I love you)

Works for me. Who is he exactly?

AH wrote: "Works for me. Who is he exactly?"

you don't know Four (Tobias Easton) from Divergent?

AH wrote: "Works for me. Who is he exactly?"

Okay, I checked your shelves and you don't have it. I must recommend it to you. It's a New Adult or YA Dystopian novel.


but wait until the bingo challenge as I know it will be on multiple lists.

I love Four almost as much as I love Spartacus

I love Four's Babes!!

Yep, that was me, sorry. It's removed.

alright, i will put away my pitch fork and flames

;) Phew!

Logan wrote: "I love Four's Babes!!"

Me too. I am Four's babe :D


@Steph: you felt the heat, huh?

I did. :D

LOL Steph isn't used to the stealthy ninja tactics. I would've said it was too close to #14 as I'd already named them. Bwahhhh

I have so far only read the Divergent in the series. Although I liked it, I'm always scared of picking up Dystopia/Sci-Fi books.

I liked Four though, so I also like the name. :)
(Wouldn't have thought he would look like that though - I didn't watch the movies).

I'd like to bow out of being captain of this one. As I'm currently captain in another team challenge.

As for a team name. I really don't mind if it's Four's Babes or Four's Girls.

I can't commit to being captain right now.

Four's Babes sounds good.

Logan, do you want it? If not, I could do it.

So we are agreed on Four's Babes

Alright Four's Babes!

Week 1: Strong Heroines: (view spoiler)[
(hide spoiler)]

I'm stuck on a few choices for strong heroine as well. I enjoyed Elle Kennedy's Killer Instincts series. Hard time wasn't bad. I'll decide tomorrow. I have a pile of dead tree books staring at me and I want to check if they are on the list.

I just picked up from the library this weekend so I'll read that. Tagged 13 times as strong heroine (https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/...).

Likewise, for Free Space I'll read as I picked that up too. It's Option 2, listed in the Best of UF series at #20: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/....

I'm likely to change as the list was extensive. I just started

I think I'll finish 'Infernal Devices' as was also the plan for July and read: which is on page 2.

For the Free space shelf I'm going to read:
which is #12 on BEST OF: Young Adult list.

For Strong Heroine, I'll read - . Still deciding on Free space (usually whatever I pick for free space ends up being the only book in another category).

I loved the first two books. Book 3 with Annith was a let down

yes but it's best to pick a book and get it down so you don't fall behind.
