Pairings announced by the end of today!

I lied. Pairings announced now. xD

My 5 picks for Amanda are:

Redemption by Rye Brewer
A Curse of Ash and Iron by Christine Norris
Truthwitch by Susan Dennard
The Sword of Shannara by Terry Brooks
Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor

My 5 picks for Maddison are:

what happens if ive read those already? I'm up to 4th mortal instruments and 3rd hp.

And is the aim to read all 5?

I'll pick my books tomorrow night for Megan. And I'm trying to buy the seven realms series so I can read them before reading flamecaster because I figured out that flamecaster is a second series!

And can we read the books any time throughout the challenge? or does it have to be next month?

They weren't rated so why were they in the list? xD

The aim is to read all 5. You cannot start these until October 1st. :) Only the books chosen for you count for this challenge.

My 5 picks for Nikki are:

wow weird how they aren't rated! I've read them both a few times xD

And do I need to read them all next month? or do I have a few months, as long as I compete in this cmr?

I won't be re reading city of bones or hp1.
think I have to go back through my shelf and change them to books i own and haven't read and books i own and have read xD

I'll be picking in around an hour and a half Megan! sorry!

Next month for full points. If you read them in a later month, it's half points.

Read the next mortal instruments and HP books instead? :) The next ones you haven't read.

Okay thanks!

I'll try for City of Fallen Angels and Prisoner of Azkaban :) I also won't be reading Lost Hero, as I haven't read PJ. I'm actually going to edit my shelves now, so I have a list of ones I own that I haven't read and one I have. I'll do that now. Can I then post that here?

Megan: I pick
and

Can I change my list? It's still basically the same but it'll only have books on it that I'm actually up to, so this confusion doesn't happen.

Post your new shelf on the signup thread and I'll get it changed :)

Thanks!

Where do we post the books we've read? I've read the 3rd Harry Potter one.
