Nothing But Reading Challenges discussion

I didn't see a minimum page count for this challenge.

I'm sorry, I don't do ebooks, so I can't do a detour with Fuerteventura, ES.

Is this one also a spell it out option, or do we read something set in the Canary Islands?

We can do spell it out
Or
The location

I pick spell it out

i would like spell it out as well

I would also vote to spell it out this time

I think I will be finished tomorrow with my book by Zadie Smith. Sorry for my delay. Had some problems with my stomach the last days. :/

Sounds good. Let us know when you're done

L - Monica Lovecraft Country by Matt Ruff 1/18/18

FINALLY! Sorry guys. So let's move forward:)

Have we agreed on a team name yet, by the way?

Well, I think most of us liked Gone with the Books - so unless someone is strongly against it, should we go with that?

Are we spelling out CANARY Islands for this one?

I also like the name, so I guess this is our team name now :)

Are we spelling out Canary or Fuerteventura?

Has R been completed yet?

And we still have not heard from two of our members. How long do we wait until we just assume they will not be joining us?

Oh sorry! I don't know if R is completed yet. I just assumed you were all waiting for me :)
I would give them one more week - maybe we should write them a direct message...?

Yeah i was thinking that too. Just to be sure they still wanted to participate. Until then I think we should go with Canary. Since there is six of us present.

Alright! I happen to be reading a book that starts with A right now. :) !

So, Simran answered that she won’t join us in the challenge because she has a bunch of work due to exams.

Okay so we just have one person to wait for. Should we ask for more people or just us six is good?

I think we should ask for 2 more. It has been almost a month for them to join.

I agree with Sunshine.

Ok then I’ll contact the moderator and let her know that we want two more participants and that we decided on the team name as gone with the books.

Ok message sent. I’ll let you know if she responds.

Thank you!!! :)

Hi All,

I hear you're in need of another team member. I'm game if no one else has come forward :)

Hi Nicole,

Hi Am and Minnie,

Hello everyone!

Don't you mean N and Y? :)

So I'll do Y. I've got The Fifth Wave by Rick Yancey to read. It will probably be done in a few days. Hopefully the 1st of 2nd of February, if that's okay.

😳 yup N sorry!!

I can take the N :) I'll be back in a bit with my book choice.

I'll read Along Came Us by Nicole McLaughlin.

Once I'm done, I just report back here? Do I need to include a review/rating?

No, just the completion date

I will also do N. My book of choose is The Redbreast by Jo Nesbo

Done! Completed Along Came Us by Nicole McLaughlin on 01/02/2018.

Nicole, I don’t think the book you read on 1/2 will count. We didn’t move the Canary Islands until 1/23.

So, we still need
P
N
Y

before we move to...
BILBAO, SPAIN

In most of the world outside from America 01/02/2018 means February 1 2018. So I think the book is fine

I wondered about that :)
