Just A Ginger | 433 comments The June challenge, only two people in my team participated, including myself, so hopefully this goes a lot better! :)


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) That is always a bummer, I'm sure will will be a strong team, the names I recognize our strong readers, I've been doing these challenges for over two years, that's why I'm surprised I've never been on a team with any of you before :-)


message 7: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Checking in. This is awesome I don't think I have been on a team with any of you either. Maybe we can get some group buddy reads going in here so we rack up those points. Looking forward to seeing what you all plan to read :)


message 8: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments This is my second group challenge here. The current one isn't going any well. No participation at all. Looks like we have a wonderful team here. Glad I signed up for serious team!

I think not. I've only joined the group in june. And started the one keyword challenge a bit late. I'm on team octopus.

I'm not sure, but I might join you for Legend (Legend, #1) by Marie Lu if I manage to get my hands on them.
And I had a silly doubt - if we BR a book with the member of our team would we both earn the bonus points?


message 13: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments Yes you both get the points :)

Anyone got any paranormal books they can recommend?

Yea, I've had One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus and Made You Up by Francesca Zappia in my tbr for a while now. So we could fix a date when we see fit!


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Perfect, I'm pretty open, so what works best for you?


message 22: by Rae (new)

Rae Lake | 2207 comments Ugh is it July yet??? I want to start already...lol


message 23: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments I know :'(


message 24: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments July 4 would be a free date for me. We could do One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus that day. Can we just wing the other? 😁


message 25: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments Ya'll better tell me if that is any good or not I've been wanting to read it!!! People have compared it to The Breakfast Club.


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) July 4 is fine, it is a holiday, but I'm not a 100% sure what I'm doing that day as of yet, but I'm sure I will be reading in the morning :-)

I won't be entirely free either and it's not a holiday here in India.
We'll just start it then and try to finish it before july ends? *gosh*


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Sounds good, do you want to request the thread ? or should I? So you are in India? Where is everybody else? I am in Southern California🌞


message 30: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments I'm in Wisconsin in the US.

@Fuzaila, the breakfast club is a fantastic movie from the 80's

That explains my ignorance. I'm not that into hollywood movies.

This is interesting, a july challenge with a team from all over the world! 😁


message 34: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments That's something that's always interested me, movies & TV Shows in other countries. It's so weird how different they all are.

Yeah that's pretty exciting :), I totally creeped on Genevieve, she's from Dublin Ireland!

India, Australia, Southern Cali, across the states Wisconsin, and Ireland. Pretty awesome :)


message 35: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments SO I have 3 hours until the challenge begins! How bout ya'll?


message 36: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments its 12:11pm on July 1st here already


message 37: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments Lucky you!!! Have you began reading anything yet? :)


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) I'm still working on last month challenge, it is so close, and these extra wildcards were not expected, probably going to be the downfall of my team, but it's all good!


message 39: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments No I tend to go with Goodreads time which is 5pm


message 40: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments I just gave up on that challenge to be honest. I was doing great but my entire team was a no show. It was literally just me and one other person reading, so at the end with only us two, and finally two other team members putting in ONE review each I said screw this.


message 41: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments That's a pity you could have joined us as one of ours pulled out


message 42: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments Well I'm just happy I have a new team :)


message 43: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 433 comments It's finally challenge day for me but I gotta go to bed. My bf is gonna be in a mud run tomorrow with his truck so I'll be out there all day. I'm bringing a book with me tho :) getting drunk and reading by a bunch of rednecks. It's gonna be great

Wow that sounds like fun! I've started a br of The Selection (The Selection, #1) by Kiera Cass


message 45: by Fuzaila (new)

Fuzaila (feistyhijabi) | 1336 comments And guys, I was thinking we could BR some freebies from google play books or something, like a team BR? That'd be fun and it would raise the team points too!
We also need to think of other ways, cause this is gonna be a tough challenge, with everything we read is gonna count and all 😁🤓


message 46: by Gillian (new)

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments My first book is a long BR The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive, #1) by Brandon Sanderson over 1000 pages :(

Thats a good idea Fuzaila :)


message 48: by Rae (new)

Rae Lake | 2207 comments Yes!!!! July first!!! I'm sooo excited! So this is my first challenge where do I post what I am reading here? Or do I wait until I am done and post it in the review chat?
Who tallys up the points? Should I put the points at the end of my post?...maybe I should have asked all these questions before...lol


message 49: by Rae (new)

Rae Lake | 2207 comments I'd be down for a buddy read for freebies!

We as a team can keep each others updated. otherwise you just have to post in the review team as Sarah has specified how to in the challenge thread. The moderators tallys up the points. The only work for us is to read & review :)
