Hello!

Hi there teammates! This should be fun!

Your team spreadsheet link is in message 2 which includes your Feb hands so you can start planning!

Using the Draw 2 card, I can cover both 5s. I can read whose main character is Abraham Lincoln. One of his many, many nicknames was Father Abraham, which fulfills the requirement of a "nickname starting with the letter F." So in essence, that is three cards with one book if I understand correctly.

That's right Kayla :)

I have books picked out and ready to go for cards 4, 8, 1, and 6. I'm not picky at all so if anyone wants a certain numbered card I have tons of books and can easily choose and be ready to read!

I have a book for 6 which is Uglies which fits for the author with an S for the first or last name.

I can read Beautiful Creaturesfor the 1 card. Its the first book in a series.

Hi Team this will be fun! I read a ton of books so are we going to divide the cards in an specific way.

Hey guys! I am your fantabulous team leader, unless anyone wants to be a co-leader, which is fine. We're gonna dominate the competition!! :)

Okay, I can read books for numbers 4 and 5, because I'm on the 4th book in a 5 book series.

Kayla- Draw 2 (both 5's)
Stacey- 4 8 1 6
Emily- 6
Chloe- 4 5

I can read a book for number 1 I am getting ready to start a new series.

I can do card 8 since The Husband's Secret has Ed as one of the characters.

I see on our next hand we have 2 reverse cards. If someone wants to tell me some books y'all have read I don't mind taking one of those cards.

I have read a ton of books so you can pick one from my bookshelves. It would just depend on what kind of books you like to read. I have plenty to choose from.

On our second hand I can read Evermore. I saw that Kayla has read this one so it will work for one of the reverse cards.

I can be co-captain if you are wanting two people with eyes on the board at all times. We can set up one comment box with who is doing what. I'll edit comment #3 to show you what I mean.

Looks great to me Kayla. I think this will help us out a lot.

Would you mind if I took you off of No. 1? I didn't notice that Brittany asked for a No. 1, and you already had one.

I don't mind at all. I'm flexible.

My book for 1 is Her Dragon To Slay

For hand two I have a book for card 7. The Hunt For Snow

In hand two I could read The Raven Boys for card 3 because the title starts with a T x3

Perfect! I have it updated to this point! Remember, you can start reading before Feb. 1, but you can not finish until the start date. Once you are finished, mark it on GR and go to the spreadsheet at the top and fill out the information for your respective card!

Yes, that would be great. Thank you. And my book for #4 is Percy Jackson: The Battle of the Labyrinth

I can read for #5 in the 2nd hand Percy Jackson: The Last Olympian. Or I could read something for Reverse.

Great! We have everything set up for hand one!

Awesome :)

would Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn wprk for 4? I want to be sure I am reading the rules right. If it works I can do one of the fours.

I'm not sure it will work for 4, but I can put you down for Reverse, since I have read the book before. It's an awesome book! Would that be OK?

Kayla you or Chloe might want to check with the moderator about who can revise the spreadsheet. It tells me when I try that I can only view it.

That's weird. It pulls up for me, put I haven't tried to put anything up. I'll ask the mod.

If you PM me with your email address, Kayla, I can give you edit rights :)

I have rights, but I forgot my google password, so that has to be fixed.

I can read Something Blue for reverse in hand 2 because Emily has read it.

Hi everyone - I am just joining your team so I thought I would just check in first.

I'll have a look at what I can add to this round. I hope I can help!

Welcome!

For the second hand, card number 4 I can read Fated Truth

Welcome to the team NancyHelen!

I hope I understand how this works - so if I say I can do both of the 4s in the second hand (I'll read Broken Harbour by Tana French and Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn), does that mean I need to wait until the first hand has been completed before I start reading?

Or can I start reading and then only finish them as soon as hand 1 has been complete?

Ashley wrote: "would Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn wprk for 4? I want to be sure I am reading the rules right. If it works I can do one of the fours."

Ashley. I'm sorry, Sharp Objects will work! I will put you down!

NancyHelen, will any of the books work for the third hand? I can sign you up in that one if you would like! You can start the book at any time, however, you cannot finish it until we are on the hand.

Yes, Tana French will work for a 2 or a 3 in the third hand.

I also am reading Live by Night this month which is #2 in a series.

NancyHelen wrote: "Yes, Tana French will work for a 2 or a 3 in the third hand.

I put you down for Tana French for #3 and Live by Night in #2, all for the third hand. If you end up finishing Live by Night too early, just let Chloe or me know!

No problems. I'll make sure to leave the last few chapters so I can finish it when I should!
