I'm in! :D

In! Get me out of this reading slump! :)

I'm in too! One question though: So if we had a title like "The Lost Saint" could it count of T or L?

I'll join.

Just wondering. Are those the allocated letters on the diagram? (Just so I can start to plan what I'll read!) :)

Correct. If the title starts with 'The' you can choose whether to use the T, or the first letter of the next word ☺ So for 'The Lost Saint' you can count it for T or L.

Thanks.

I'd like to Join but I have a question first.
Can we use several lines of hexagons at once? I'm just thinking if I'm reading a series and the first letter of one book is 'o' and the next is 'k' I wouldn't be able to use that series for this challenge because they are not next to one another?

Sorry if this question has already been answered or it's common sense haha. I've never seen this tv show :P

I have the same question. Or is it one line and your done? Or is it like a one person wins challenge.

You can do the hexagons in any order, if you want to do them all over you can, or you can work on two lines at once, or whatever you want to do really.

Each person's points will be counted as the challenge goes along, and there will be a winner with the most points at the end, but there will also be random winners too, with each point you earn acting as 1 entry into the draw ☺

You can even duplicate letters if you want to. If you read a book which starts with the letter K, then read another which starts with the letter K, you can still use it ☺

We're trying to keep this challenge fairly open after the MMC ☺

I'm in.

Thanks for explaining to me Sarah! I'll join :)

I would love to try this!

If I've crossed out a certain letter and will make a new line, do I have to read another book from that letter again or no need? Sorry if this has been asked already.
Thank you!! :)

Nope, it's like bookish blocks, if you've already crossed the box off, you don't have to do it again to make another line ☺

I'm in. :)

Sorry if this has already been answered but will there be a specific place for us to sign up for buddy reads during Sept. for this challenge?

@Tara There are three threads that you can request buddies on (for this challenge or otherwise).

This one is for general requests: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

This one is if you are looking for to read an entire series: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

This one is for books that you have for review purposes (ARCs, Netgalley books etc.): https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

The threads are pretty interchangeable though. No real strict guidelines or anything.

Thanks Rachel ☺

That's okay! :)

I'll join :) I need to get back into regular reading

You're added ☺

So we can do any kind of line as long as it is 5 in a row, starting at one end, ending on the other?

as long as you get from one side to the other, it counts as a line ☺

We're officially starting in roughly 11 hours ☺ I'm going to be away until September 6th though, so please bear with us! Abbie will be mostly on her own for a week.

I'll join

Okay question: so I have beneath a meth moon and I was wondering if it would count for m? I want to make sure I have the right books.

No, it wouldn't, sorry! If the letter you're going for is M, then the title has to start with M. The only words you can skip are 'A' and 'The'
