Me too 😁


Marc *Dark Reader with a Thousand Young! Iä!* (marcthedarc) I started this morning with A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe. It's due back on Friday, will put us on the board with 2 points.

Mia (aphroreads) I Started https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... today. I think I'll be able to finish it by tomorrow. I thinks it's also bonus of two points since it's a debut author and face cover :) :)


message 9: by Sam (new)

Sam Chase (hernameisam) I have to go to the library soon! I'll probably just go through my tbr list and order a bunch of books from the library and read whichever ones come first :)

Hi Sam,
I don't have you recorded on any team yet. Would you like me to sign you up...you won't be able to choose your team though. (I have to keep the teams even to be fair). Just let me know before April 7

I just read Eos the Lighthearted. This also fits into the category of a mythology inspired book. I don't have school for spring break so can stay home and read all week. I hope we'll win this challenge.


Marc *Dark Reader with a Thousand Young! Iä!* (marcthedarc) Hey stalwart teammates! Please give yourself a reader nickname for this competition, I will keep a roster in the original post in this topic.

Finished: Mary Poppin
Bonus Challenge: a book with magic.


Marc *Dark Reader with a Thousand Young! Iä!* (marcthedarc) Finished Paper Girls, Vol. 2
Bonus point category 19: A book with a African American character. Tiffany rocks. At least I think she's African American; could be Hispanic, the color pallette in this series is unique. It has a red cover as a backup option.


message 39: by Mia (new)

Mia (aphroreads) I've only finished one book since this challenge started. I need to catch up with u guys...Y'all are fast

No worries, to each their own pace. It's all just for fun anyway. I have a good number of longer books slated for this month that are going to slow me down, but also some graphic novels to whip out quickly.

Team 4 looks like a menace, gotta keep up the pressure!
