Yep, it's free now, but I didn't begrudge the lifetime fee either. :)

Robin Hood theme sounds cool. Or how about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table?

Happy birthday, Sonia. Have a great one!
Looking at all the posts for people changing book read counts has me all worried.I have been reading less the last few weeks, and more short books so thinking I should reduce my number as to not get in over my head and be able to read some longer books for this challenge.
So MODS could one of you please change my 22 books to a more reasonable 14-16. Thanks in advance
@Alison, I think we're all dealing with this issue! I already asked my count to be lowered a bit, from 17 to 15, but I feel like my actual rate right now is closer to 10. Like, averaging a book every 3 days or so.D:
I don't want to bug for a change AGAIN, so I am just crossing my fingers that I can make my reading level go up once summer camps announce their new opening plans, and shit like that, and a small bit of certainty comes back into life!
It is honestly hard to figure out what how many books you'll be reading. There's so many factors that can make you read more or inhibit you form reading at all! It's like I have to predict what my life will be like and go from there

I can’t even remember the number of books I said I could do - if the question was number per week I would have put 1 - if it was per month I may have put 4 or 6.
I like to commit to the minimum just in case I have to read 4 books in one week because I can’t match 1 book to all The challenges I am in

I'm in the midst of the thankless task of trying to sort out teams now, so
NO MORE CHANGING OF BOOK NUMBERS!!!
Also, any sign ups after now are not guaranteed to be placed on a team.

I also us Librarything and love it! The lifetime membership was worth the cost. Now I believe it is free.
