Ok thanks I didn't know that we needed to read the topic 4 times but that shouldn't be an issue

Just checked it out nice work ryn

yeah, it was down lower in the rules

"Once 4 books have been completed for the same description, this category/card is completed, and the team will receive 10 bonus points. They will also be assigned a new category/card using random.org. "

Cool must have missed that where are you from if you don't mind me asking you am from the uk

USA -- central Oklahoma. Nothing to do out here but read and watch football, and I don't like sports. ;)

thinking of reading this

Checking in

@Natalie lol, well that's an easy fit. Actually, we can buddy read things to death on this one, and series reads by the same author will fill things up quickly too.

Yeah if everyone puts up the books they would like to read maybe we can find buddyreads get a few extra points

I'm checking in! I'm away from home till monday evening (here now it's saturday evening) so I would put my reading later on, but I can cover every category without problems, so I can take what's more useful for you all. :)

Didn't you want to read Gemina? If you can go middle to late April, I can read it with you and that will fit in either of two spots. If we can pick up a couple others from our team for it, we can knock out a whole card with it maybe.

Never heard of that book is that it's title name

For the first week of April I have so far:


These are all already buddy reads, but the more that jump in from our team the faster we can knock out cards :)

oh whoops... different Natalie. My bad >.< Probably just as well since I can't renew that book again and it's huge. I'll have to put it off until another time.

Hello everyone. I have tons of books I want to read, so I can wait to see what is needed after you all have chosen. I still have two books to finish for this March's challenge.

am going to read this on the 1st April

Good Luck!

Ooh... this book, guys.

Anyone want to buddy read it with me this next week? It's set in New York so it will count for one of our harder cards AND it's getting rave reviews everywhere. I'd compare it to All American Boys and After by Amy Efaw.

Wow! I'm a little confused. I was planning to read these books this month:



I don't know which categories are already taken. I took a look in the document you shared, but I don't know what "Later date/alt:" means. Actually, I'm not used to playing Uno... ^^"

hi when were you thinking of reading the Simon one as we could buddy read that I'm wanting to read it too

Natalie wrote: "hi when were you thinking of reading the Simon one as we could buddy read that I'm wanting to read it too "

Hi. I was planning on reading it the first half of the month. I didn't pick the day yet. When it's best for you?

I was planning on reading it tomorrow maybe Monday if that works for you I'm totally up for that plus this one can be used as game there's a g in the title there's a in the title there's a m and there's a e in the title as long as all the letters are there we can use it hope that makes sense

That's great! No problem for me. Do you want to ask to reset the BR topic or do I do it?

don't worry I'll do it I'm talking to Sarah anyway

I've asked Sarah and she said she's going to sort it for us I'll post the link when she's done it

Lets do this team

Thank you! :)

hey sorry I'm late! checking in!

heyy if i'm planning to read The Sword of Summer, would it count for Red Seven (title containing G, A, M, E)? because the specific book doesn't have the letters, but the name for the whole series is "Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard."

ohhh wait nvm i just reread the rules and it said it didn't count. putting it under Blue Eight instead!

Hi girls! I won't be much present here at least until the half of the month because I'm moving and working, so I really don't have much free times on my hands, but I woyld read anyway and post the review as soon as I can. For any problems you can PM me.
I've started that can count for Red4 or Red 7, and then I think I would read that count for Red7.

Just put my first review up for red card 4

Second review up for red 7

go natalie!! are you planning to see the Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens agenda movie, by the way?

Ok everyone I'm going onto my third book the perfect game but all the spots are fill on our document what do you want me to do

I started Dark Triumph today and will be done in 2-3 days. Then I will start Bury Me Standing.

@Carolina
I put that in there because a lot of us plan most of our month before the month starts. Because this challenge will change constantly and the goal is to read 4 in a category and get rid of it, it's not helpful for everyone to snag slots now for books they may not get to until a couple weeks have gone by. Because we'll try to get rid of categories and then we'll get new ones, the criteria for choosing books will keep changing -- it doesn't make sense for us to wait on someone to finish a category with a book they haven't started. It's better to go ahead and use the four slots for books that have been started or are going to be started in the next day or two, so that we can knock them out quickly and get new ones.

That's probably clear as mud.

@Natalie you can take my spot for Magnus Chase, I’m probably not getting to it until later.

hey do you guys want to pass Blue Six (Books set in New York OR titles with New or York) because I feel like it will be hard to find a lot of books for that one.

@Natalie I removed one of my books under Blue Eight :)

Sorry but I need a spot from red 7 as this one is going to be under game

Right everyone I've just finished the perfect game and it's now up on the reviews
