- Once all columns of a goal have been filled out a new goal will appear within 5 minutes.
- Do not change existing pages. You may add a new page to your spreadsheet if you want to track additional information.
- Mark books as used in your books list once they are used for a goal.
- Only books read during the current round may be applied towards goals, once the round has ended those books may no longer be used for a goal.
- Once you merge teams, you may use your books for your partner teams goals. List them in your books list and on their goals sheet. Mark them as used.
- If you end up with more than 3 open goals, contact a moderator for help.

Captains and co-captains should message the moderator account with their team name and google doc e-mail to be added to the approved editors of the team spreadsheet.
These are our first three goals:Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter M
Read a book where the hardcover version is between 300 and 399 pages
Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter T
Hi everyone. This looks like it will be fun.
I'll be starting My Sister's Grave on Sunday which fits our 3rd task: main character's first name starts with a T as the main character's name is Tracey.

I'll be starting The Lovely Bones tomorrow which fits 'Read a book where the hardcover version is between 300 and 399 pages' as the hardcover version is 328 pages I believe.

I still have to look over my books. So many things to get everything ready in time.
Can everyone post their shelf for the challenge?I think we should go with a first book completed that meets a goal we use since then we'll get a new goal that another book may fit towards. Finishing goals as fast as possible will probably net the best results.

Hi KellyLooked over my books slotted to read this next week and have
Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter M
The Duchess War so I can start it tomorrow.
Neat. I think it's best to aim for books that satisfy the goals but then if someone else reads one that works we use that so we get a new goal. Most of the goals aren't too hard so we should be able to assign books read earlier to later goals. Or at least that's my hope :)

I have an M book too that's due somewhat soon to the library. (It's also over 500 pages).We can use whatever book gets done first then use the other for another goal.
Finished 8/2
320 pages
There is a character named Mal, but he is not a main character.
Is there any other information that we need to post when we finish a book?
How's everyone's reading coming on today, gang?
Read 2/8
328 pages
Hardback version is also 328 pages so would work for that goal.

Nope that's it. Add it to your shelf so I can find it if I need it. I'll go update our spreadsheet and see what our new goals are :)
BTW I've been out at renaissance fair all day today (in 92 degree heat!) but I'm back now so will be more chatty :P
If anyone else wants access to the spreadsheet to be able to update things I can give it to them.
Current Goals:Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter T
Read a book that starts with the letter V
Read a book with the main genre (listed on the first page on GR) as Historical Fiction
Just started A Desperate Fortune which counts for historical fiction.Not sure I have a V one. Looking.
Lord of the Flies
Read 3/8

Doesn't meet any current goals, I'll keep an eye and see if it meets any others this round.

Zee wrote: "How was Before I Go to Sleep, Amanda? I have it on audio and keep meaning to start it soon."Very good. I had a hunch about the big plot twist before it was revealed but I still enjoyed it. I listened to it on audio and really liked the narrator.
Finished A Desperate Fortune Susanna Kearsley 519 pages 8/3/15That works for our historical fiction one.
Will post shortly our new goal.
AckRead a book where a character's first name starts with the letter T
Read a book that starts with the letter V
Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter T
I'm currently reading a V book. I'll see if I have a T character book since we seem to need them.
Mod
Before I Go To Sleep had a minor character named Toby who was mentioned a few times in the book.
