No, we're going to do the Romanceopoly one too. That's the thread that will come next. I may do a monthly Reader Favorites Thread after I post the spreadsheet...for people popping in each month. No pressure...
Renee ❤️My heroes are ordinary wrote: "I have a question: Why are the spoiler tags there?"
I put spoiler tags on each section just to cut down on the size of my original post. If everyone wants, I can remove them. If you look at post number 4, my second post, it has them all listed together. Crap, I just realized, I spoiler tagged that one too. I have no good answer, Nay. LOL!

So maybe dumb question, but can we knock out more than one at a time? For example....a book with a red cover that was also free?

You all may want to copy post #4. I fixed the Time link, and I added the link to Maryse's 5 star faves too.
What is the other challenge Robin is talking about? Goodreads Challenge?I want to try this one. I'll do Overachiever Club.
But it's so hot today my brain has melted, I have to copy the list and paste here?
Can I reread books for this Challenge?
Do I have to follow the order?
When I complete a challenge, I post here only the challenge number and the book or the entire list with the name of the book as an answer?
I'm sorry for all the questions.
unless I'm doing something wrong...I edited my post and copied and pasted post number 4 and for me neither link copied over- The time one or Maryse....
Jenn wrote: "unless I'm doing something wrong...I edited my post and copied and pasted post number 4 and for me neither link copied over- The time one or Maryse...."I'm confused...what didn't work? You tried to copy the post in and it didn't copy??

Ignore me...I understand what you are saying now...it's been a long week...already :-)

Hmmm, I wonder if that's why it didn't work for me too... I'll take the hyperlinks out and just make them regular links. Standby!
Mod
Is it me or are most of those books depressing?

What is the other challenge Robin is talking about? Goodreads Challenge?
There is this one;
the Readers' Favorites Challenge ~ https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... ;
The Romanceopoly thread ~ https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... ;
The Pick-for-Me Challenge https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... ;
And the BOOM thread https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... .
I want to try this one. I'll do Overachiever Club.
But it's so hot today my brain has melted, I have to copy the list and paste here?
Yay! Welcome! Yes, in a new post, copy and paste the 4th post so you have all 60 options available.
Can I reread books for this Challenge?
One of the numbers stipulates that you have to reread a favorite, but for the most part, I think this challenge is supposed to be new books that you haven't read before. However, we aren't real stick tight to the rules kinda group around here. It's a fun place to hang out, so do what works best for you!
Do I have to follow the order?
Absolutely not, read in whatever order you want to!
When I complete a challenge, I post here only the challenge number and the book or the entire list with the name of the book as an answer?
How I am planning to do this...and you guys can do it however you want to... but when I finish a book for this challenge I am going to strike out the challenge itself by doing this < s>whatever challenge is < /s> (take out the spaces in the brackets and then put the book cover after it.
I'm sorry for all the questions.
Don't be sorry! If anything, it was probably a question someone else was thinking and just hadn't asked yet! Thank you and welcome!!!

*GIGGLES* it's okay I really thought it was me doing something wrong and I agree it has been a long week already-I am not even really sure what day it is anymore. :-)
I am going to do the overachiever level. but you people confuse the hell out of me so I am going to copy and paste the 1-60 and keep up with what I've read on my phone.

Grey wrote: "Your challenge, Robin...your list! Go for whatever works for you!"I want to know what you guys are doing! I tend to have a lot of DNFs so if I include them it probably won't be unless I made it 50%
Robin wrote: "Grey wrote: "Your challenge, Robin...your list! Go for whatever works for you!"I want to know what you guys are doing! I tend to have a lot of DNFs so if I include them it probably won't be unles..."
I would do the same, Robin.
I personally won't count DNF's or use a book for more than 1 category. My rule following nature just won't allow me to do it. 😉However, I WILL "stretch" some of the criteria as necessary (since some of the categories will be tough for my CR only self) and I also WILL count re-reads if I do any.
But since Grey is a nice Mod, she will let us do whatever works!
Thanks Grey! You rock
Also, I will count novellas (even though I don't read a lot of those).

As January 2019 will be the inaugural month, this will be a work in progress. I think it may work out to be easier if we have a monthly thread and keep track of what books we are reading that way. But we'll see...
1) If you want to be included in the Levels Challenge...at any level, just post here and say what Level you are attempting. (The levels are not mutually exclusive: if you're attempting level 4...you have to do all parts of level 1, 2 and 3, as well. However, remember, that this is a YEAR long challenge. Don't worry about not having all of the books to complete it right now!)
2) What each of you can do, is copy and paste the actual number (1-12 or 24, 36, 48 or 60) of the levels that you are attempting to complete. For example:
1.)
2.)
3.)
and so on...
Or you can copy and paste the complete levels list below and replace the text of each number with your book title as you complete it. Whichever you think will be easier for you to keep track of. For example:
1.) A book with a red cover
2.) The Pebble Jar
3.) A book under 300 pages
3) Post frequently, let us know how you're doing! We'll keep a score card of sorts... And at the end of each month, I'll update the list of how everyone is doing in reaching their yearly goal!
3) Remember, this is supposed to be fun and it's a work in progress. We'll figure it out together, I promise!!
