Hello everybody. ^-^

That's a good list Irene. ^-^

Team giraffe what's up?? Checking in. ;) I really don't have much planned for this month. Maybe 2 BRs but I love to join BRs that are already planned. I will post my wang to read list later.

Hey Cinthia! I too enjoy joining buddy reads that others planned so I'll probably be doing that this month as well. ^-^

It's kind of funny that so far we have checked in in the order we are listed above. First me, then Irene then Cinthia. lol. :P

Hey guys! Sorry to break the chain of attendance order, though :)

Super stoked for this challenge!

Hey Madelyn! :)

We are doing well so far. First day and almost everyone is checked in! :D

I will post my books I would like to read once I can get to my shelf. However, all I know is that I have a LOT to read ☺

Me too. It's one of the things I love best about this group. The challenges and the team chats! :D

This is a great group to start challenges with! :D

@irene do you have a BR for the golden compass? If not I could read it with you. I'm open except first week of June, the 21, or 22. But after those dates any other date works.

@Cinthia - I don't. That'd be great! How about the 10th? :D

I love that we are on team Giraffe. I haven't planned my books yet but will soon.

YAY we are all checked in!


I looked up giraffe facts last night and there were some funny ones!! :P

Oh! You should post them! :D

Yes!! You should!!

I found them on a Buzzfeed article: https://www.buzzfeed.com/alexisnedd/f...

The funniest ones for me were 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, and 21. Mostly from either the extra comments in the facts from the writer, or the pictures. :P

These are awesome! This is going to be a fun month! :)

That was a really cool article. I'm planning some of my books now so I'll have them up in a bit.

My book plans. I might add more later.

Just a little over a day till the challenge begins!!! *super pumped*

^-^

I have a couple of books coming for me tomorrow at the library. I set up a BR read for The Unexpected Everything on the 15th if anyone wants to join (:

Oh awesome. I got a book in the mail today, and if I have time I will read it for the current challenge, but I may save it for this one if it fits a description...

Amy wrote: "This is a really stupid question i know but we don't have to have a buddy, righ? On the format for our reviews it asks for a buddy we can read a book on our own to use if i understood correctly, bu..."

We do not have to BR. :)

And so it begins...

I will start in the morning... boys with words by e.c. Wilson will be my first read...

I'm just finishing up a book before I get started :)

I was just looking at the Top 100 list and I found out I own a bunch of the books (that I haven't already read):



If anyone wants to BR, let me know. I also have some books that aren't on the list, but fit descriptions.

Umm I forgot I have to look at the descriptions and see where my books fit. Just finished one I gotta see where it goes before I add it to the reviews.

Got it. 26 it is. Flowers on the cover. I might have to use that twice.

GJ on finishing your first book Cinthia! :D

Sarah says you can use the descriptions as many times as you like. :D

I'm pretty happy to be able to use some descriptions twice otherwise it would be harder. I'm listening to Stuart Little right now. Not what I expected. I've got five buddy reads and I'm trying to get some more.

I finished my review of Stuart Little. I'm going to start my br of Saint Anything next :D

Buddy Reads:

Will we get any bonus points if we finish all descriptions?

No, it doesn't say anything on the page challenge. That would be really difficult to read 100 books between us but cool if we could.

That would be cool, but a challenge :)

I have only one buddy read planned:

I may join a buddy read for

This seems accurate, but there are the books I would like to read

Scumble is so good!!!

I think Sarah missed my Stuart Little post by accident. I put up my br read of Saint Anything so technically we have five points and are in third place. I'm going to read Beastkeeper next. I'll also be listening to my br read Princess Academy all day since the audiobook is like seven hours long....

What is everyone else reading?

Oh and there is a buddy read for Wolf by Wolf on the 18th, Illuminae on the 1st, and Glass Sword on the 13th Madelyn :D
