You are all checked in now!!

So, this is my first one of these team challenges. How does this work? We're starting with Phase 1, right? Do we sign up for the categories we're going to read? Thanks.

Yes, we are starting with phase 1! I don't know about anyone else but maybe we could claim tasks with books that we have read and reviewed? We can put CR books on the banked tab for now.

I feel like it will be easier that way so that we don't have to wait for people to finish their books for tasks that they claimed.

for propaganda task: I will accept any book from this list - https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/...

Hey guys! I just finished three books that work for three of our open categories - genius, ww2, and space. I’ll write reviews tonight and add them ☺️

Hey guys! We are really close to finishing phase 1! Here is what we have left:

Captain America:
- MC is used/misused as a propaganda mascot

Captain Marvel:
- Set in the 90’s
- Features aliens

Does anyone have a book that fits any of these?

Looks like we just have the following left:
Captain Marvel:
- Set in the 90’s
- Features aliens

Cindee are you still reading Sanctuary?

Not gotten to it yet

If someone has a book that fits replace mine

I have a quick alien book. Does anyone have anything fits for set in the 90's??

I've got set in the 1990s. I was searching lists of books set in the 1990s, and it brought up the Buffy the Vampire Slayer tie in books. Since Buffy graduated in 1999, any book set while they're in high school should qualify. And they're on Scribd for free.

Then we can move on to phase 2.

Yes, that should work :) I already moved books from the banked tab to where they fit in phase 2. So once we have 90s and alien posted we can start posting for phase 2!!

I just finished the alien book I had. Just need to write the review. Cindee I'll move your book to the banked tab :)

sounds just fine to me

Added all I could for Phase 2. Looks like Justice for Mickie needs a review Deanie.

Alaina wrote: "Added all I could for Phase 2. Looks like Justice for Mickie needs a review Deanie."

I got it. I didn't realize that I hadn't done one. I've also added a few more books. We're moving quickly through phase 2, too.

Ya! I’ll see what my next books work for tomorrow

I have books set in 2008 and with a main character whose name starts with T as two of my next books in my 'finish the series' challenges. I think the harder ones are going to be MC with anger issues and MPG Mental Illness. I don't know if anyone has something for those...

We are almost done with Phase 2! Looks like we just have:
MC has anger management issues
Author's initials are in HULK
MPG Mental Illness

I just got a book that works for Mental Illness and I'll most likely have it done and reviewed tomorrow. Does anyone have any book that fits the other two?

I've got one for Author's Initials are in HULK. No idea about anger management issues. Most of what I can find are non-fiction about managing your anger...

Hmm I might have one? Not sure yet. I’m almost halfway through my mental illness book. I should have the review up this afternoon ☺️ Then I’ll see if any of my books work for anger management

Just posted for Mental Illness :) I also picked up a book that works for anger management issues .

I will finish anger management this afternoon maybe and have the review up. Anyone close to finish a book for the last task??

I’ve also added our banked books to phase 3. So once we have the last task posted for phase 2 - we can start posting for phase 3!

just posted my review for the last task in Phase 2 :)

Hey Deanie, can you please write your review for Last to Die? I've posted your other books.

So, to finish Phase 3 we have:
MC is an assassin
Set in Winter
MPG Family
Set in Washington DC
MPG Music
Set in the 1980s
Author's initials are in EGO


I've got books I'm reading that will count for Author's initials are in EGO and Set in Washington DC. Does anyone have books for the other categories?

I’ve got one for 80s and winter

I posted for both of those categories and finished a book that worked for MPG Family! I have another book that works for MPG Music if no one has that?? That will leave MC is an assassin task open. Anyone have a book for that? If not, I can look for one if someone wants to take the music one?

Hello!

I realize.. that I might've thought of super hard tasks for this challenge. I haven't even found backstabber lol. So I will allow "backstab, backstabbing, backstabbed, or backstabber" in text.

Alaina,

I've got assassin books on my WTR list so I'll take that one if you want to do the MPG Music.

Sure I can do that!

Hey team! Just popping in to say that I am still here. I haven't been feeling well. I think I have 1 or 2 books to add at some point. Didn't want you guys to think I ghosted. I will be back ; )

I've actually got a book for that! I'm listening to the Audiobook for Artemis Fowl and that word came up when I was listening today. I've also got the paper copy so I can find a page number, but I probably wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't read your message. I should be finished with the book tomorrow.

haha yay!

Just a heads up, we did finish the phase we were on - phase 3! I did move the banked books over to our new phase - phase 4! So you can all post for that one.

Posted the books that worked for our new phase that were reviewed. I'm going to see if any of my other books that I just finished will work for the open categories or not.

So for the open categories, I just got two books that will knock out Features twins and Features an experiment. Unless someone has a book that could work for either of those.

I just got two books that I will have done tomorrow - they work for mc is divorced and hallucinations. If anyone already has a book that works for those two categories, let me know and I’ll try to find something else

Oops! Went a little rogue and read a book for Published in 2016. I'll have my hallucinations book done tomorrow. I also have a book for brainwashing I think? I'll have to double check that.

Anyone have any books that fit the other open categories??
What's open:
MC commits a petty crime
Book cover has 5+ people on it
Author's initials in CIVIL
Features a school dance

I've got MC commits a petty crime and author's initials in CIVIL. The only book I have on my WTR list with 5+ people on the cover is a graphic novel, so I don't think that would count. I'll see if I have anything for features a school dance, but unless the dance is attacked by monsters or something I don't know if I'll find anything.
