Hiiiiiiiii I'm Anya I like long walks on the beach and skydi- nah I'm kidding I like stay at home and read books a lot. How do these challenges work?

Hey, Anya. Once your team shows up you can discuss things with them. You basically just read books in March that will fit the categories on the sign-up thread and then turn in reviews for points. At the end of the month teams/individuals with the highest points get a prize. :)

How do the reviews work?

Once you've finished a book and marked it as read, just write a short review. If you visit your team's review thread it has the information for what else is needed with your review.

The reviews don't have to be long, just a few thoughts on why you did or did not like something.

Okay cool, Like a proof of being read.

Pretty much. :)

I still plan to participate.

I'm here!! Sorry guys, been crazy lately but I am ready to go!

I'm here too!

I'm doing the pretty thoughts song at the moment - for a book written in the first person, I'm reading tigers curse by Coleen houck :)

Perfect, your whole team is here and you can go ahead and start planning.

Great! Actually changed book to light of the fireflies, which I have just finished! Same song, which is also in first person, will post in review page later on when I get on laptop :)

Hey guys,

I have taken the liberty to create a post so that we can visually see what songs are in progress or completed. I am currently tackling #20 Stranger in a Strange Land.

Just let me know what you're up to and I can update as we go along. :)

I have begun working on #2 Couldn’t Stop Caring-Spiritual Machines (Read a book with a character who refuses to give up someone/something) with Waistcoats & Weaponry.

Let me know if you guys are working on anything so I can update the list.

Does anyone have any books to update the list with? We've reached the middle of the month and have quite a few songs that need to be tackled.
