Hello Team Mowgli!

Your team's spreadsheet has just been added to the first message. Please let me know if you can't access it or if a formula is wrong. You are more than welcome to jazz it up how ever you want :)

I’m soooo excited for this!!

Hi there, checking in :)

Susan wrote: "Hi there, checking in :)"

gotcha!

Adding Claire to your team guys!!

Will we be assigned our first character before the first? Or do we have to wait until September actually starts?

Ahhh sorry!! I was assigning them today but my computer decided to die. It has been a very shitty day. Had to go into work to get a new one which didn’t happen until an hour ago. Once I get home I will finish updating all the teams!!

HELLO!

Your first three characters, which are marked in yellow on your team's SS, are...

Merida, Auora, & Tarzan!!

Check!!

I don't fully understand what disney character category we can read from.

These are the characters and the categories that you have,

Merida: (0/4)
Book set in Scotland
Scottish MC
Character who uses a bow and arrow
Features triplets
MC has red hair
Bear on cover
Features a competition
Word BRAVE in the title
Aurora: (0/4)
Needle or wheel on cover

Tarzan: (0/4)

So for each character you, as a team, needs to complete four categories. Once you have done 4 for a character, you will get a new one.

You can see this all on your teams spreadsheet and review thread - the links to those are in the first message of this thread 😊

All, I have messaged Victoria about checking in by tomorrow for this challenge :)

How is everyone's reading going so far?

Slower than I’d like 😩

Kim wrote: "Slower than I’d like 😩"

aw i'm sorry - same though. at least with today, I've done zero reading!

Hello Team Mowgli!

Just wanted to check in on you all to see if everything is alright. Seems a bit too quiet over here but maybe you are all knee deep in books!

PS. I will also send out another message to Victoria since I haven't heard anything.

Alright team, I’m 75% through one book and over halfway through my other. These are not going as quickly as I thought.

How’re you guys doing??

I have a lot of free time to read, so I'm reading. :) I'm halfway through The Wind Up Bird Chronicle and just beginning Clara and Mr. Tiffany.

gotcha checked in!

Nari--Atlantisgirl wrote: "Can someone from the team do it in my stead?"

I can add books to your team's spreadsheet if you want?

Also, how's everyone doing so far?

I know about the burning maze book but what was the other one you were going to start?

Oops! I was sure I had entered that and then I couldn't find it anywhere!
