Do you mind if I do a tracking post in this thread so that I can plan?
These titles confusing my brain. Thank god I made them and that I bookmarked it. :P
I'm going to make a list here and take them off as I read them. Keep me motivated since you guys can see where I'm at. (I'm including some DEC books in case I don't get to them.)ARCS
BRS (Not including ARCs)
Finish 2018 (Although at this point I will never get to these)

😁
The thousandth floor series is a good one for the stop drinking portion of the challenge.
Signing in! 😉I need to officially organise my books for January o.O
Just to be clear we only have to keep updating what we’ve read on our account right? We don’t have to update it here?
Yeah you need to update on your account. You need to put when you started the book, when you finish the book and then either have 4 or 5 detailed updates as you read or a review at the end on your thoughts.
Hello everyone, thanks that I can still join! 😁 Just curious; Am I supposed to pick one resolution? Or can I pick multiple?

Eva Luna wrote: "Hello everyone, thanks that I can still join! 😁 Just curious; Am I supposed to pick one resolution? Or can I pick multiple?"When you go to post it all you have to do is pick 1 that fits the book. i hope that helps
Hello Team!How does it work when I choose not to write reviews but write updates instead? Do I need to post the updates seperately as I read the book or all updates in one post when I finish it?
It's weird not having this group bumping at 11. But it's still early morning for most of you. O.o
Hoping to finish my first book today or tomorrow
Awesome! I have a book I'm still finishing from last year but then I'm going to get this ball rolling. I have a lot of time today so if I can tear myself away from the comp or at least listen to my audio book I can maybe finish my first book and maybe another today. :)
Yay, our chat is active! I have read my first book yesterday (a dutch book about darts, since the worldchampionship finals were yesterday! En our own Micheal van Gerwen ended up winning!) I also am almost finished with the the screenplay book from Fantastic beasts. I also started with 'The selection' by Kiera Cass as an audiobook today.

Awesome Eva!
Good to hear! Did you have fun travelling?Do you maybe know when the maintenance is done? I still can't get the updates right and was wondering how long it would take.

No but I'm here so I'm happy. Travelling is always a nightmare for me.
I think it is done? My site is fine. What updates are you missing?
Ah that sucks, good to hear you have arrived though!I decided that for some books I would do updates instead of a full review since I am not that experienced in writing reviews yet. For Fantastic beasts I did the regular updates whilst reading, but when I go to the page of the book I used to be able to see all those updates as a little progress list, but now it is blank! :o
You liking it actually made it pop up for me to! That is so weird but thank you very much! :D
