Hello All!

My link: Roman Gods TLC Challenge

Hi all - have no idea what this challenge is about except that Thunderbolt is our word.

How do we set up a book shelf and link?

How do we set up the link

My bookshelf is https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

I'm definitely going to need help since even with reading the instructions and FAQ I'm lost!

Welcome all!

Looks like our power is Thunderbolt and from what I can gather to spell out we can use:

-- Title
-- Author first or last name
-- Characters first or last name
-- Series
-- Narrator first or last name

Example:
L-Nameless by Lili St. Crow (Author L)
I-I'm with You by Glenna Maynard (Title I)
G-Wild Wolf by Jennifer Ashley (Character Graham G)


Points
-- Books with 125 pages or (150 pages for children books) are worth 20 points
-- Books with 250+ pages are worth 25 points
-- If you read a book that your Pantheon is the major theme it is work 50 points
-- Each time you spell out your power you get 100 points.

So we would each need to spellout thunderbolt a bunch of times to get to 20000 points since you only get 20 or 25 points for each book that fits the work and 100 points each time we complete it?

Pantheon the major theme does that mean set in Rome?

JoAnne wrote: "Pantheon the major theme does that mean set in Rome?"

Someone asked in another thread and I think to get those points the Roman Gods must play a major part in the book.

...then I am in the Wrong Pantheon...lol...

I have been on a Norse Gods kick these days....

Thanks then I probably won't get the extra points for us since I don't read those type books.

I knew there was a reason I kept putting off and . Been a while since I read so may have to do a re-read.

I'll plan for these in May so we'll get Roman points :)

Hello :) My shelf is Team Roman

Penni-Captain if needed
Laila
Melissa
Danielle-Co-Captain if it's necessary
Abbie
Kme_17
Melissa (ladybug)-Co-Captain if it's necessary
JoAnne
Laventeli-Maybe a Co-captain

Haha I'm probably in the wrong one too! My obsession has always been with Greek mythology.

Will we be posting what we read here as well as on our shelf?

Lets see what we can did up on these Romans....

I found a list of some of the Roman Gods - definitely not a total list:

Janus
Jupiter
Saturn
Genius
Mercury
Apollo
Mars
Vulcan
Neptune
Sol
Orcus
Liber
Tellus
Ceres
Juno
Luna
Diana
Minerva
Venus
Vesta

I have a book coming up that has a God that calls himself Apollo. Not sure if he is THE Apollo from this list though. Wonder if it would work.

Should have all the links for the shelves up so far

Sounds like from Faq and book verification threads. We are not held to just read Roman gods for extra points. We can read a book with Greek, Norse Egyptian etc Gods in it.

That will make it easier to find God books. I need to get back to the Dark Hunter series and pretty sure there are Gods in those ....plus I can finally get caught up with the Rick Riordan series I've been putting off - Roman and Egyptian gods in them......

That definitely makes things a little easier. I'll have books I can read now

Here's my list. https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

Oh if we can read mythology books from other pantheons that would be great as i'm participating in a book group about Norse mythology.

Sounds like this book should work then and I'll be reading it next month - so perfect timing.

Yay! This makes me so much more excited. I was looking for books to read with Roman gods, and all I kept finding was books with Greek gods I wanted to read instead lol

Do you like planing ahead the books your going to read or do you pick books up your in the mood for?

I'm more of a mood reader, but I do some planning too. I have started a spreadsheet for some books I know I'll be reading in May and where they fit for the letters.

I plan - always have more on my list than I can read - use mood and challenges to hone which things actually get read for the month.

I am a mood reader, but I will try to fit in a God/Goddess book as much as I can.
Now that there is a broader range, that gives me more options!

I think I'm a little of both. I plan weekly what books I'm going to read - usually 1 book to fulfill a team challenge and 1 book to fit my mood.

I'm both too but I also review books for two sites and have deadlines to meet so I love when they fit into a challenge as well.

Do we have a captain yet? Won't be me.

Do we want to pick a team name?

I can be captain.

We can do something with out name to include Roman. I'm not good at coming up with them.

I vote for Danielle :-)

Roman Goddesses
Hot Italian Mammas

Thanks Danielle

Goddess of the Hunt(after Diana)

Daughters of Jupiter

Aegis of Minerva

I'm no good at names either - like the ideas you guys have come up with.

Abbie wrote: "Goddess of the Hunt(after Diana)

Ooohhhh ~ I like all these names.


I think we already have a Captain ~ it looks like its Penni with three lovely others willing to be co-captains.

I tend to have a plan for the month but don't always get it all done,lol

I like Daughters of Jupiter and Roman Goddesses the most

Sorry - didn't see this post. Only looked at the top most one. Thanks to all who volunteered.

I volunteered only if needed. If someone wants to captain I'm totally happy to let them lol.

Sounds like we can so you'll be golden on the points side!

That's why I said I would because in your sign up post you didn't seem to want to, but would if needed. I got no problem doing it.
