YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

Got it now, thanks!

And then dependeing on the number of pages, that's what we add to 1? so if it's 200+ pages, the I will move 2 spaces, thus reaching 3? If that right?

Correct ☺

What will we do in cases of books that have different page numbering based on the edition?
Example: This version of Shiver: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... has 390 pages = 3 squares
But, if I want to read it as a white cover and choose this cover for it: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9... [it says it has 432 pages=4 squares]
If I submit this as a read for the challenge will you take it as a 3 squares book or a 4 squares one?

How many squares do you want to move?

This edition is white and is listed as 311 pages if you want to move 3 spaces?

Oh, so I can choose the edition with the nr. of pages I want to move?

Yes ☺

how many points do we lose if we hit a snake?

That's a good question Tessa!

You don't immediately lose points. at the end of the game, the number square that you are on will be eqal to how many bonus points you get. so if you end on square 50, you get 50 bonus points.
the only way to lose ponts due to a snake is if you go down one, and don't get back up. so if you get to square 89, hit the snake, and drop to square 26, if that is where you then end the game, you'll only get 26 bonus points not 89.
does that make sense?

Oh right thanks!

Ok, so we basically lose no point if we hit the snake at 85, read a 200 page novel and get back to 84 and continue again from there. I just want to know if we can use the snakes to not end our game prematurely without having any extra penalties added to it besides the obvious point on the table loss.

You don't get any other penalties for going down the snakes. :)

Unless you don't get caught there at the end haha.

I'll be careful to not use the snakes if I feel I have no time left to get back up :) .

Would count as a suspense book?

I really don't think I'll read that many books in Feb as to get to the top but we'll see haha.

No, there aren't any penalties, going down a snake to prolong the game is fine! ☺

I am stuck on planning from yellow #92 any suggestions on what books to read?

You can have that as suspense. Good luck with it though, Abbie and I read it the other day and neither of us liked it :(

Oh really? I hope I like it then! Now I just need to make a list of all the book I need to read haha.

Good luck with that one Maddie!

Would count as suspense? Sorry for all the questions!

Thanks Abbie haha.

Yes ☺ That one looks good ☺

Thank you!

Do you mind if I keep asking you what each book could be? Or is it getting annoying?

It's fine ☺ Feel free ☺

Alright thanks haha.

What would be?

That would count for white, blue, or green, or if you used this cover - Red.

Alright thanks. Blue's what I'm after haha.

Wait! If you stop on the ladder square you don't read that book do you? You just go straight up the ladder and then read the book the ladder lands you on?

Correct ☺

Would this count for a green cover?

Ok thanks Sarah. Now I need to re-do all of my list haha.

Lauren wrote: "Would this count for a green cover?"

Even looking at the cover with the most green on it, I don't think the green covers 60% of the cover -


so it wouldn't count unfortunately :(

Another question, for the cover scavenger hunt thing, would this count as a cover with puzzle/jigsaw pieces on it? I don't know if it's technically a puzzle or a jigsaw though.

Good question lol.

no sorry, i think that's supposed to be like broken pottery or something rather than puzzle pieces :(

Oh right. Awww

Damn. Thought I had my books picked out but the yellow and green tiles are difficult. I have nearly 100 books that I own in my TBR and still I'm having trouble with it!

Why don't you choose a genre then?
