Team Aurora

Check In
https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Challenge rules:
*No graphic novels, poetry or cookbooks allowed.
*Follow your own time zone. If you finish the book between the theme dates in your time zone, it counts.
*You must be able to justify how your book fits the theme. Example: If the theme is cats, then your book can have a cat on the cover, a cat in the book, can be all about cats, etc. If you can justify it, then it will work. Let's keep this easy and you may be creative with your links to the themes.
Standard Rules Apply

Themes
May 1-7 Good
May 8-14 Evil
May 15-21 Curses
May 22-31 Magic

*Theme Start & End times are based on your time zone. So the Good theme will end on May 7th at midnight in the time zone that you live in.*

Kaley (kaleyamo) | 303 comments Hi team!

No clue what I'll read for each week yet, but I'll figure it out as I go along :)


message 6: by Laurie B (new)

Laurie B | 57 comments Hello teammates! I need to pick a book for this week and next. But I think I have weeks 3-4 decided. They will probably all be fantasy, so should work well for the themes. I love fairy tales!

I am just trying to scrape by and do the ONE book a week I promised! 😅 It's been a bit hectic. Thankfully you are carrying the team, Alaina!

Oh no! I think I may have just been lucky with slow workdays. Today, not so much... but I'll finish at least two more books? Not sure. Definitely hoping.

Kaley (kaleyamo) | 303 comments So far liking them! It’s been easy to just mood read and fit my books into the first two themes, but I’m expecting the next few will be a bit more challenging!


message 12: by Alaina (new)

Alaina (ameserole) | 259 comments Yes, might have to dive into more retelling books for curses. Haven't decided yet. Good and Evil were pretty easy. Magic might be too.


message 13: by Laurie B (new)

Laurie B | 57 comments Got my week 2 book in, just in time. The first two books haven't even been what I planned, but they worked! 😅 Now if I can finish the other two I started, I should be good for weeks 3 and 4, lol.


message 14: by Alaina (new)

Alaina (ameserole) | 259 comments I didn't read much over the weekend but luckily my books somehow ended up working for curses lol.


message 15: by Kaley (new)

Kaley (kaleyamo) | 303 comments Same! I'd started a book at random just because I felt like reading it, and then she started talking about a birthday curse! I was like how fortunate!

My current read has mentioned curses and magic both so far so thankfully it'll work whether I finish it this week or next!


message 16: by Alaina (new)

Alaina (ameserole) | 259 comments Hoping I get some more curses in books :)


message 17: by Laurie B (new)

Laurie B | 57 comments Finally reading a book I actually planned for this challenge! 😂
