Ready to go!

I'm ready!

Hi guys, since we have to split the description in each part, I think it's better if we post what we're going to read here. So that we can arrange which one suits better with each description. What do you think?

I've only schedule two buddy read so far, and . I think we can use Never Fade for Read a book by an author, or with a character who’s name starts with the letter ‘A’ (for Alan) in Part 1 and Clipped Wings read a book with something that flies on the cover. I'm that so sure with Clipped Wings, though. I think it's a wing that flies but I don't know. I need your opinion about it :)

Clipped Wings is fine for something that flies ☺

Yay, thanks Sarah!

So far i know I'm going to read for read something with the letters B A T in the title. Also, for a author or character name beginning with A.

Any ideas on what i could use for? That's another i definitely want to read but i dont know much about it so it's hard to match up.

Amy, you could use Paper Towns for 'Someone Goes Missing.'

So far, I know that I am going to read for a romance novel, for a horror story, for a story with an author/character whose name starts with A, and for a book with a beach on cover/set at the beach.

Does anyone have any idea what i could use for? I was considering 'a book with character/author named Sarah,' but since Sara Shepard is spelled differently, I wasn't sure if it would count.

That's fine Erin, it doesn't matter that it's spelled slightly differently ☺
You could also use it for - Book with shoes or trainers on the cover

Thanks Sarah!

I'm READY

Since there are more than one book in 2 description (Read a book by an author, or with a character who’s name starts with the letter ‘A’ (for Alan) & Read a book with a beach on the cover, or set at the beach) I think we should find another description to the other books, if it possible. That way we can finish all of description faster than when we read the same description more than once.

Edit message 19 to add for a book featuring an orphan.

@Amy, how about we put for Read a book set in the future, or in the past (after 2041 or before 1989)? I haven't read Selection series yet, but I know it's dystopian so it should take in the future, right? I don't know whether it's after 2041, though. We should ask moderator about it.

@Erin, I think is also suitable for Read a book with soil/earth/ digging equipment/ something buried, or a box or trunk on the cover. And we can also use for Read a book with flowers on the cover. I check on other edition and this edition has flowers on the cover.

What do you guys think?

Ok then I will not take the beach one I will take another so we can cover as much as possible . but I will choose when the other members finish I can do any one of the description except the horror one

Rachmi wrote: "@Amy, how about we put for Read a book set in the future, or in the past (after 2041 or before 1989)? I haven't read Selection series yet, but I know it's dystopian so ..."

the Selection I read it and yes it is set in the future and of course after 2041

Mona wrote: "Ok then I will not take the beach one I will take another so we can cover as much as possible . but I will choose when the other members finish I can do any one of the description except the horror..."

Actually you can take the beach description if Erin doesn't mind to change We'll Always Have Summer for flowers description.

I'm gonna use another description too, but like you said we have to wait for another member to tell us which one she'll read. I cannot read horror story, though. So I don't mind at all if you can to take it :D

Mona wrote: "Rachmi wrote: "@Amy, how about we put for Read a book set in the future, or in the past (after 2041 or before 1989)? I haven't read Selection series yet, but I know it'..."

Great, thanks Mona! But I think we should wait for Amy's opinion about it.

hhhhhh I don't read horror or watch it I'm so happy it is already taken.
what do you think about book written in 1995 ? I don't know any book

or what about the book in another world ?? I think maybe

also we can do for Read a book set in the future, or in the past (after 2041 or before 1989) ???

Mona wrote: "hhhhhh I don't read horror or watch it I'm so happy it is already taken.

Haha, me too! I don't like horror story. I rarely read and/or watch it. So glad Erin is willing to take that description, lol.

There's listopia about books that published in 1995 https://www.goodreads.com/book/popula.... I've already read some of them but there are some other that I haven't but want to read such as Sabriel and Assassin's Apprentice. If other member will not take it, I'll gladly take that description.

if anyone haven't red HP2 can use this edition for
- That’s my car! Read a book with a car on the cover.

Mona wrote: "or what about the book in another world ?? I think maybe "

Yes, I think we can use it as books that set in another world

Mona wrote: "also we can do for Read a book set in the future, or in the past (after 2041 or before 1989) ???"

It can be used on that description but I think we'll use The One for it? However Cinder can be also used as bullying description.

right any book from the selection series can be used for the future. also set in the 80th for the past

I haven't read any of Danielle Steel books yet. My friend recommended her books to me since forever, lol. I don't know why I keep skipping it :)

she is a great author she is my most read author I read 17 books by her <3 <3

Guys what about Point of Retreat and Beautiful Disaster or The Husband's Secret for read a book with something that flies on the cover.

Mona wrote: "Guys what about Point of Retreat and Beautiful Disaster or The Husband's Secret for read a book with something that flies on the cover."

It can be, but we already fill flies on the cover description with Clipped Wings. I'll buddy read it on June 15th :)

Edit message 19. I'll put books that have the same description into another one. If you guys don't want to change it, please let me know then I'll get it back to the way they are.

I do it because I thought it'll be easier for us to look for description that we haven't had the books yet.

Hey guys, I'm in as well. I'll try to fill up the remaining challenges.

A Book set in another world Fairest (does the moon count as another world?).

Need a hand? We have 8. Read a fantasy story. Sacrifice

U Under the Never Sky
I Invaded

Hi Neha, welcome to J team :)

I think Fairest can be count as another world, but to make it sure we should as Sarah or Abbie first.

I'll put your books to message 19 then. Thank you!

Thanks Rachmi. And I just saw Mona's comment for reading Fairest. I can buddy read with her if it fits the description!!

All members of your team have now checked in ☺

Fairest is fine ☺

Cinder's fine &~9786;

Edit message 19 to post for Read a book whose title starts with the letter R

I can read We'll Always Have Summer for a book with flowers on the cover and The Hidden Beast for a book with soil/earth/digging equipment on the cover if that works best for everyone!

Sorry guys, i haven't had chance to make up a complete list yet but wherever you have put The One is fine. I'll just recap on all your comments when i have chance to sit at a computer to plan my month. :)
