11 days to go! I think first place is pretty solidly set (congrats team 1!), but there is still room for second place!

Good luck everyone—we have two more weekly updates to go and then Spring Fling is OVER! Finish strong, you all got this :)

And look at that battle for second place! I don't think I've ever seen a grouping so tight. Well done everyone!

Here are some fun stats, but remember: it's not how much you read (for the most part), but how well you strategize with your team, and how many people participate. Team 3 had a lot of Buddy Reads and Group reads spread across their team, in addition to working on completing as many categories as possible as a team.
