Hi. Checking in

Hello! Checking in.

Anyone got a preference for how you want to tackle this?

I have a lot on my plate the next couple months so I will just do my best to go with whatever everyone else decides as long as it is fairly simple. My brain is already half fried from work, haha.

I'm on holiday for 2 weeks in April so i'm hoping to get lots read in those 2 weeks but i don't really have a plan! Just gonna try place the books i read with the headers that haven't been used yet! I've also got buddy reads planned so hopefully that's extra points for the team!
Unless you have a plan you want to go with? :)

I have a tendency to over-organise things but am happy to slot in books where we can if others are happy with that. I might try and focus on one description set and see how we go.
Copied another team's spreadsheet if anyone would find it useful to track reading/remind ourselves of the descriptors. If anyone wants to use it, I'll share the link.

Yes! I love spreadsheets, please share!

It is intended just for posted reviews.

I think just posted reviews is best anyways. :) Looks good

I am really glad this is a 2 month challenge. Dewey's readathon is on the 30th and I will be out of town where internet sucks and wouldnt have been about to post after the 28th. This way, I still can!

Hi! Sorry I’m a bit late at joining!

I agree, it gets a bit confusing if it's non-posted reviews too

I read a lot of graphic novels which I know sometimes can bother people because they aren't worth as many points but I'm gonna post them and then if you wanna switch them out with other books or whatever, I'm cool with that. I've got one manga read already which I'm gonna post now :)

Go Connie!! Graphic novels can be so much fun.

Here! I totally thought I already checked in lol

I already love your spreadsheet, Karen!

Copied from one of the other teams. Think it might have been Brandi’s originally.

Starting the following books:

1. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
2.Out of Sight, Out of Time by Ally Carter
3. The Haunting by Lynne Ewing

I'm thinking SHOEH could be for task #7 and the others can fit accordingly.

Same with me I do read a lot of mangas so will do that too with books

Just over halfway through my big book - Remote Sympathy.

I have one book read. Need to review it soon. I will be busy for the next week or so because I’m getting a new puppy. I’ll be reading but won’t be on much. :)

You’re getting a second doggy? Awww companion for Ruby?

Yes. A 12 week old Yorkie who’s deaf. ^_^

Awww. You amazing rescuer!!! Gonna be a lot of work but lots of reward. bless you for taking in the little sure-to-be sweetie!

I’ve never owned a deaf dog so I’m sure it will be full of surprises. But I’ve done research and the breeder assured me she is just like any other dog she just can’t hear.

First thing I’m going to work on is touch. Deaf dogs startle easily so that and potty training are #1

I would love a dog, but it’s a long way off due to working hours. Genuinely curious about how you’d train a deaf dog.

It's similar to how you train a hearing dog. But instead of voice you use hand signs for everything and they have to be looking at you. That's also very similar to hearing dogs because they should be looking at you when training and you use hand signals for a lot of things. ^_^

Just started which I'm hoping to use as the 7th book in a series. Heavy week for ARC reading, so will try and slot those in where I can. How's everyone else doing?
Does anyone want to try and set up a BR within the group for the categories that require that (68 and 69, I think)?
