Ok! Can you switch the review to that edition? All you need to do for that is to hover over that edition on the computer version and click "switch to this edition" and it'll switch your review to that edition of the book :)

SPRING FLING update 8 May 2022

We try to post updates each Sunday of this challenge for teams and solo participants. It might not be Sunday yet in some parts of the world but this is for consistency purposes.

TEAMS:
Full of Secrets: 79
We're a Mouse, Duh!: 23
The Plastics: 66
You Go Glen Coco: 29
Personally Victimized by Regina George: 35

You Can't Sit With Us!

Laurel: 9
Rosky: 4
Allyson: 10

It's our first weekly update! Woohoo!

If you're feeling a little behind, that's okay! In the past it's not always the groups that jump ahead in the beginning that win in the end. Points can change dramatically from week to week—the goal is to keep reading, keep posting updates, and rack up those bonus points!

Four housekeeping notes as we roll past our first week:
1. Please plan for your Buddy Reads to start at least 3 days after you request them.
2. Don't forget to put the prompt category and number in your completion post. It helps us out a lot!
3. If you are participating in a Group or Buddy Read, don't forget to post in that thread!
4. Have a question? Ask in the sign-up thread (because other folks might have the same question)...and check to see if anyone else has asked the question before :)

Happy Spring Fling
