Hi hi! Any number works for me. Ooh so eager to get started on this.
Tati, I think they just put two of the best solvers for this particular challenge together. :)
Awesome!!I was thinking of 189 for this first round, though I usually end up picking the hardest titles...
Hey! I really like the number 13, so it's also a choice :)
Yeah, what a coincidence we end up on the same team!
13 it's a pretty popular number, so there is a chance we might not get it.Any plans B?
I'm really found of any number that ends with 3 or 5, actually hahaha Maybe we could try to get 23 or 25 - or the number you said before XD
I'm going for 13, then. It's still available!
I'm here but a little confused as to how this all works. I will go read the instructions :)
Welcome, Gillian!If you have any questions, feel free to post them here!
I have read the instructions and i have no preference for numbers. Do we get advance notice for the first title?Can i please have the time that this will start as my times will be way out of whack for this challenge it is currently 12:34pm on Saturday 30th of July here.
We went with number 13 for the first round.It starts 12 AM 1st of August, Pacific Time Zone. As soon as we get there, we can start reading and posting our guesses.
Ok thanks Tati I think that converts to 5pm on the 1st for me :)
Usually, the mods let us start and finish on our own time zones, might be worth it to check with them
I think for this one they said we can't as we won't have the tittle, but i will double check.
Alright, got my first several books lined up and ready to go! I am off most of the first 2 weeks of the month however I will be traveling to visit family for a good portion of that time so the 4th and the 9th especially as I will be flying but most of my personal time will be spent reading. I love this challenge!
What are you reading first? I think I'll start with The Blessed by Tonya Hurley .
I have BR for My Lady Jane, so I'm going with it
Already finished and posted my first book! I'm liking my new time zone! But now I need sleep before the sun comes up lol.
I'm sorry I won't be able to join in for a few days as my father passed away unexpectedly yesterday.
Oh no!! I'm so sorry!!Don't worry, take your time.

I couldn't read much yesterday, as I had to drive into work today, but I should be done with a BR today!
Completed another set!The one I picked seems to be tougher, sorry about that!
Maybe but you got another book and answer for us! I have 2 books I am working on. Hope to have them done by tomorrow. If not, they will have to wait for an extra day. I will be off for almost a full day as I have a long flight on the 4th. I will be reading on the plane though!
I'm halfway through another book, I'm trying to have it done before I go home, but I can't make any promises.
Just posted my first book. I should've finished it yesterday, but it's kinda hard for me to read during the day when my mom is 100% of the time home.Gillian, I'm so sorry about your loss. I know how it's hard, take your time. Hope you feel better soon.
How's everyone doing?I'm reading a pretty long book (nearly 700 pages), so I'll likely need a couple of days to get that done (it's a BR, though, so bonus guess!)
I'm reading HP and the Cursed Child, but I admit that I can't stop looking for those covers XD
Slight chance I might get one more up today but I doubt it. And if I don't finish it it will be next week I finish it as I am traveling the next few days. I have my kindle with me but my currant book is not on it so Not sure I will finish before I leave. Going to bed early tonight and won't be on for about 24 hours or so. So I leave guessing to the rest of you. The next 5 days reading might be a bit light but the second half of next week should offer some amazing reading chances I hope!

@Tayane, those covers can be impossible to let go of.@Jamie, that's okay. Thanks for letting us know! I'll try to focus on shorter, faster books after I finish what I'm reading now, so we get more letters on the boards.
As I've found them all, I'm free to read LOL
You've found all of them?? OMG!! I found only 2. This is really hard.
I did. Took me the whole morning, but I did.
That board is stumping me... We need to guess A, I think, so we get more vowels in the mix. I'll try to finish an A book tonight
Yep. I'm going to be terrible at guessing the titles, because they use mostly less known books that I'm not aware of XD So my hope is you and the girls. At least I'll try to help guessing letters *insert blind monkey emoji here*
So, that A didn't help much...I'll try to finish one more book by tonight.
Still trying to read a few books. Still a bit slow for 2 more days then It should pick up the rest of this week. After this next week though I honestly sadly do not know how much reading I will be doing. Still a decent amount but perhaps not what I thought I'd do. My husband was laid off work so I will be asking my work for some extra hours plus taking on some odd projects to make up some of the loss. Leaving less free time. But I will still do my best!
Oh no, that's awful!! Hope the whole thing sorts itself out soon!
Tati, sory about the letter error the other day. Guess my phone wasn't showing it for some reason. Weird. Anyways I am back wit ah pc to work with so should be better now for me to participate. :)
Don't worry about it, Jamie!I know I keep mixing up the rules for the Spelling Bee and Hangman...
How is everyone doing on their reading (or in life in general). I am working on Winter right now which is a bit long but just over 1/2 way through. Also another book which I am about 25% through. I am re-adjusting to CA heat after being in cooler states the couple weeks so my energy level is a bit low. But making decent reading progress.
I should have 2 reviews to post tomorrow morning.I'm really tired, need to take a break from work...
I'm reading Do Not Disturb and trying to finish Grasshopper Jungle. I don't want to dnf if, 'cause I already wasted time on it so it at least needs to give me points hahaha. I'm also trying to read a chapter a day from City of Ashes, since I started it in July and it will only count a few pages to Pages Count. Anyway, I hope I can finish Do Not Disturb 'til tomorrow and I have a few BR scheduled. I swear I'm trying to read as much as I can.
