Hi All!!

Hi guys !! : )

Here is the link to my shelf "2015-reading-challenge https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

Hey Team Caribou!

Please welcome your new team member: Reed

Hello, Reed!

Hello Reed :)

Hi Reed!!! :D

Hello everyone! I am very excited to be a part of this team! Looking forward to this challenge!:)

Hi Reed! Welcome.

Hi Reed! : )

Hi everyone! I'm excited to be here and looking forward to getting to know all of you. :)

Just wondering where all of us Caribous hail from? I'm a Long Islander but commute to New York City for work so that's when I do the majority of my reading, on trains and busses. I also tend to read my larger tomes at night because there is no way I'm lugging The Walking Dead, Compendium 2 with me in my bag! What about you guys, where do you do most of your reading?

I'm in Ottawa, Canada. I work from home and I have a little girl who is almost 2, so my reading time is limited. I read while she's napping if all my work is done, and if I'm not too tired, I read before bed.

I'm in the DC area. We're doing a pedometer challenge at work, so I get a lot of reading done while walking on the treadmill after work :)

I live in the Minneapolis suburbs. I used to ride the bus to work and got a TON of reading done, but now I have to drive. I do listen to audiobooks in the car, though! I read at night before bed. I can't stay up as late I used to!

I live in Kansas I read a lot before bed. :)

Hi JK! Welcome to our team!

Hey JK welcome to the team :)

Hey JK! Welcome to the team!

5 Days till it starts!! :)

Waiting is hard!
At least I'll be able to count . I have too many books I want to read this month!

What's on deck for everyone?

I'm doing buddy reads for

I also want to read (I adore the characters!)

Sandy, you have a lot of good stuff on deck! I'm not sure what to start on the 7th, I wasn't sure if we were doing goals right away or what not. If it's a free for all, my cousin dropped off for me last week so maybe I'll start that?

Oh, right, I suppose I should read something for our goals! :-)

Ready Player One is a GREAT book!

Awesome! I'm excited to get going on that next book then :)

As for the goals...when do we get our first set and do we split them up? Can more than one person do the same goal? I'm not sure how this works exactly.

I am also clueless about goals. I'm hoping it will become apparent when we begin the game.
