My resolutions:

1) To read all my R2R books
2) To read my Grandfathers old novels

Hi team! My resolutions are to

1) Finish as many series I started as I can
2) Start the series that have been on my TBR for a long time

Hi everyone.
My resolutions toward this challenge:

1) To read more books off my physical bookshelfs that have been there since at least 2015.
2)To read more standalone novels

@Jamie

I was thinking of doing that as well. I aslo thought of reading the 11 graphic novels Im ordering on boxing day but not enough points for us.

@Ashley

Does TBR stand for to buddy read?

@ Christina

TBR= To Be read.

Yeah, I wish graphic novels counted for something for this. I have a lot I plan to read this coming year. I focused too much on other challenges this year and let them pile up.

So for Christina's, would we be able to use any books that we have received in exchange for a review?

Yep, any R2R books would count ☺

Hi everyone! My resolutions are:
1. To read books I've got for free
2. Read books published in 2015 or 2016

@Jamie thank you

@Victoria I like your resulotions

Hey guys! there's only one Victoria on the list + I know I applied for For Serious but I'm not entirely sure if this is my group? Haha, sorry if it's not!

Thanks Christina!
Hm, that's weird Victoria, because I know I signed up for serious too... I think someone has asked :)

1.Start Reading some sci fi and fantasy again.
2.Start the popsugar 2016 challlenge..

I have so many books like that to read !

Hi guys, I only have one Victoria signed up, which is this post here - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

I do have a space left in a serious team though, so if Victoria S. would like to join Team Eretz then that should sort things out ☺

If you wanted to changed the second resolution, Ashley has finish series covered for us but it is up to you. :)

We just need Kelly's and we are good to go :) I'll post this on the review thread so we have an easy to view list, once we get the last 2 goals.

thanks jamie

Oh, I'm really sorry about that! Thanks Sarah :-)

I just sent a message to Kelly. Hopefully she will be checking in soon.

Awesome, thanks Jamie. I can't wait to start :)

What books did everyone start with?

I'm starting with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and To All the Boys I've Loved Before. What about everyone else?

I'm starting with Half Bad.. it's quite weird.

Guys~ Abbie says my goal of ebooks is too open, so I'm switching to gifted ebooks I've gotten over the year because I have about 100+ ~

@Christina: Abbie also wanted us to have on our reviews thread to have the list of resolutions - if you could edit your first post to include those that'd be awesome :)

ok I will do that in the morning

Im starting with (A bend in the road by Nicolas Sparks )

@Jamie thank you gor sending Kelly a message.

That sounds good

Starting with and

I have started with The rogue not taken by Sarah Maclean - which matches both of Victoria's resolutions.

And after that american gods by neil gaiman which matches my resolution.

We will need to write a detailed review ?

the blood one sound intriguing.

Karen wrote: "We will need to write a detailed review ?"

Yes, we will need a detailed review. At least two paragraphs.

There is a buddy read for it if you want to join :)

Looking to read asap if someone is interested
Also posted on looking for buddies but thought I would check in here first.

There's still no word from Kelly, so she'll be removed from your team.

Hey, just wanted to make sure you all knew I am still around, still reading. Just have yet to finish either book yet. It has been an insane start to the year and I have had no good time to just sit and read sadly. But still reading where I can. This next week is looking a bit better though.

I have finished 5 books , will write my reviews in a day or two.

@Karen that amazing and good for you. Thats very nice of you to let us know. I highly appreciate it.

How are your books? You were reading Nicholas sparks right?

Just wanted to mention this here in case I forget later on . Buddy reads in this group get extra points and I'm reading the mortal instruments in a buddy read in the group .

Yes I was and I really liked it.

I just wanted to let you guys know either today or tomorrow I'll be posting 3 books. I haven't been feeling good. That's why I'm a bit slow on posting.

Should have a book up tonight or tomorrow morning. It is a BR so better on points. Sorry I have been off to a terrible start. Really hope to get some good reading in the next few days :)
