Vivi | 1374 comments Hi everyone! 🙂

Checking in... Should we all add our planned June reads to the spreadsheet?

Do we have any strategy?

I used a spread sheet made by someone else in this group for us to keep track of our reads! Here is the link

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/......"



Rachael, just checking, but... You did make a proper copy of that team's spreadsheet, right?!

Because if you didn't make a copy both teams are using the same document and will erase each others books all the time.


message 11: by Rachael (new)

Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Well I copied each page to a new spreadsheet.... I think it’s right? But it’s also my first time so if you have any way to double check???


message 12: by Vivi (new)

Vivi | 1374 comments If you copied it to a new spreadsheet, it shoud be okay. (it should have an different link then the other team's).


message 13: by Vivi (new)

Vivi | 1374 comments Clephiro, one of the players in another team made a spreadsheet for other teams to use. I made a copy for our team. It's here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

The spreadsheet will automatically calculate the points and it’s very well done.

Rachael, would you mind if we use this spreadsheet, instead?

Guys, any idea of what you'll be reading in june?!


message 17: by Laura (new)

Laura | 632 comments I still have my TBR quite open, but I'm for sure reading these because I've seen Buddy Reads for them in June:

Dry by Neal Shusterman Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston , The Gilded Wolves (The Gilded Wolves, #1) by Roshani Chokshi

I'd also like to get to these:
My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing , The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren

I have yet to check what descriptions they can fit in.

Fun team means you read what you can... As much or as little as that is. Just have fun. No pressure.

message 24: by Vivi (new)

Vivi | 1374 comments Hey, I've organized the books we are planning to read in the Spreadsheet. That way we can cover (and receive a crystal and bonus points for) Aztec and Medieval zones.

But if anyone wants to change (or add more of) their books in the Spreadsheet, feel free to. ☺️

I really thank you, I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the different descriptions so I appreciate that you have decided where each book goes :)

Thank you again!

That's okay. Just add the books to the spreadsheet as you decide what to read.

i want to read Bright Side (Bright Side, #1) by Kim Holden so if i read it this month maybe we can BR Gus (Bright Side, #2) by Kim Holden


message 34: by Vivi (last edited May 27, 2019 03:21PM) (new)

Vivi | 1374 comments Okay, so after adding some books to the spreadsheet... We now have 1 book for each challenge of each zone!...

Meaning we should get crystals for completion of 1 description of each challenge of a zone... And then a trip to The Crystal Dome, once we get 1 crystal from all the 4 zones.

And Remember that to fit the descriptions books have to be young adult, new adult or adult. Must have at least 200 pages and can't be a re-read.

You don't get any extra points, you just get guaranteed buddy read points basically ☺

I found several spots that would work. I try to fit the books into the harder tasks first. I put it in a spot based on rating and messaged Sarah.
