Hey Tricia! I'm super hyped for this challenge! It's my first partner challenge here. Looking forward to getting to know you 😊
Hi Benedicte! I have never done this challenge before so I honestly have no idea what to expect, but I'm excited. I have done partner and team challenges before so here's a little about me. I live in the seattle area, with hubby and 3 grown kids. I work part time in an independent bookstore and volunteer at my local library, so honestly books are my whole life. I'm online every day, and can check in to this thread daily if needed. I'm also doing another team challenge so hopefully books will work for both!
It sounds so relaxing to work with books! I also have no idea what to expect from this challenge, but I already can't wait to know what will be inside the box ;) I usually read about one book per week, so I thought this would be a great way to motivate me to keep my reading consistent. I'm mostly looking forward to the reflection prompts and discussing our books together.
Where are you located? It would be helpful to figure out the time difference between us.
I live in Norway, right now it is 10:45PM. Time flies! I should probably go to sleep now but I'll be back tomorrow to figure out a team name 😊
Okay, so it's a 9 hour time difference. Hopefully that doesn't cause us any issues.
Here are some team name suggestions: - Key-mistry Solvers
- The Final Click
- Keyed In Together
Feel free to come up with some more!
Hi Benedicte - Unfortunately, I've had to withdraw from the challenge. :( I didn't consider the fact that I'll be out of the country with limited internet access for a month in the fall. I've told the mod and hopefully she will pair you up with a new partner asap!!
No problem! I'll probably see you around on other challenges here. Have a good time wherever you are going :)
Would love to partner up on another one! I'm headed on a cruise down through Mexico and Central America and then through the Panama canal with my husband. Thus the very limited internet connection.

Sorry, it completely slipped my mind that I signed up. I sent you a friend request Benedicte
🔐 Welcome to Your Box.
The lock is real. The box is closed. But the two of you? You have the keys.
This is your personal team thread. Each week, you’ll receive a new reading prompt. Each of you will choose a book, read it, and post your reflection here. Once both reflections are posted, a key turns—and the box reveals a message just for you.
You must complete all 12 keyholes to open the box in Week 13.
You can use this thread for:
🔐 Weekly reflections
🔐 Talking with your partner
🔐 Celebrating when a new lock opens
Your first prompt arrives Sunday at 6pm CT. You’ll know it when you see it.
Until then: get to know each other. Decide who’s reading what.
And whatever you do… don’t open it yet.
📖 Weekly Check-In Format
When you finish your book, post the info below in this thread to let your partner know you're ready. Once both of you have posted your reflections, one of you should check in on the main thread to unlock your keyhole.
• Week: (e.g., Week 1)
• Book Title:
• Author:
• Page Count:
• Reflection: Your response to the week’s prompt.
🔎 Weekly Check-In Thread
This is how your keyhole gets unlocked.
No check-in, no click.
How to check in:
Just post your team name and a link to your team thread.
Example:
Team: The Locked Hearts
Thread: [insert link here]
Once I see your check-in, your message will appear in your thread—if you’ve earned it.
