Hey Ashley, could you please use the spreadsheet so we aren't claiming lines twice?? Thanks <3

I think one could be moved to 28 and then the others will be for the next board I guess...

I wasnt sure what we would want to do. thanks Brandee for doing the switches!

Moving Kay-Mika from Team Carousel to Team Barbeque ☺ I've moved her points, but I've left the line she completed with her book x

Just submitted mine for Line 20 and put it on the spreadsheet :)

Hi Danielle, I think Sarah counted it towards Line 28.

i know line 26 is cleared now, but i'm about to leave work so i'll find a new spot for mine later

Hi team, this is just a suggestion. If we finish a book that works for a line that is already claimed on the spreadsheet, can we give each other a heads up before posting. I think it will clear up any confusions of double posting for lines if we do.

Oh! Ok! That works :) :)

I just submitted one for Line 9 & updated the spreadsheet for Line 9 & 28 :)
Also, I claimed Line 25, I am reading Yellowface for "a" for it.

Finished my book for line 22. I will try to post tonight or tomorrow.

moved my 26 to line 20

1
19
27

seem to be the only free ones right now

I'm gonna aim to get my CR done, plus 2 more done tomorrow, as long as no one at work wants conversation XD

Posting my book for line 13 now, have marked it on spreadsheet as well :)

Should we decide which to pass on at this point?

I took my book off for line 8 so it is free

Jamie wrote: "Should we decide which to pass on at this point?"

I think we should soon.

Lines left;

1 - has "I" (feel like this is super easy since you just need the letter i )
8 - has "the"
19 - has "the"
27 - has "the"

which should we skip?




and i know i have a book that works for line 1, but i have it on board 3 because it comes after the book i'm using in line 14 for this round. so potentially i can get to it but i don't want to rush.

Any lines you guys would like is fine by me, as I'm not currently reading anything with "the" in the title

Let’s do #27 for this round?

27 works for me.

i am also fine with 27, i have 2 books that work for "the" that i can try to work in if the others are still open later on

I just finished a spontaneous read that will work for line one, so I just claimed it for this board, and it can be yours for board 3 still. :)

idk how much reading I'll get done today, have the rest of season 3 of bridgerton to watch then Taylor Swift on a grainy live stream since it's her 100th show and it's the 13th so maybeeee something will be announced

Just submitted line 25 :)

aaahhhh, glad to see I'm not the only one who will be watching Bridgerton! #polin4eva

I was double checking the review thread against the spreadsheet, there are some discrepancies so everyone might want to check what they have posted and what they're working on in.

Edith wrote: "aaahhhh, glad to see I'm not the only one who will be watching Bridgerton! #polin4eva"

i just finished it and i need more already!

We also could just skip whichever line is left at the very end...to finish the board... I am okay with whatever :)

Jamie you had line 10 claimed but Ashley posted for it already, so you'll have to find somewhere else. I looked into your currently reading and i think you were going for "the" but idk for sure, but line 18 or 8 (8 is claimed in the thread but i made a mistake so after it's fixed, 8 will be free) would work?

Sharon you had line 22 claimed but Ashely posted for it already, so you'll have to find somewhere else as well. You were just using "the" so i'd move it to line 18 or 8

If i'm assuming right with Jamie's "the" that only leave line 27 which will be our pass line.

I just posted my 3

Yeah, it is just using 'the' I marked for 18.

It’s fine! I will post for something in the next round.

Sharon wrote: "It’s fine! I will post for something in the next round."

Line 8 is open :)

Ok I will post my review now then for line 8

And if someone gets another "the" in before me, feel free to take that spot. Focusing on finishing 21 first so the other will be a few more days most likely. I hope to get at least 1 done this weekend, but if we can flip is sooner, lets do it!

I have a book to post but everything seems claimed...should I just wait until the next board or just pick a line????

Brandee wrote: "I have a book to post but everything seems claimed...should I just wait until the next board or just pick a line????"

If you can use line 18, go ahead and just push mine to the next board. :)

if anyone has something that works for line 5 or 19 and you'll be able to get it done before Monday, pls go ahead and kick me off them, I can move them to round 3 but reading on the weekend is super hard for me so I don't think I'll have them done til Monday

Brooke wrote: "if anyone has something that works for line 5 or 19 and you'll be able to get it done before Monday, pls go ahead and kick me off them, I can move them to round 3 but reading on the weekend is supe..."

I got a short read that will work for line 5. I will see if I can finish it tonight!

I've got line 19 already posted :)

I posted my last one for this round, and asked for 27 to be the skip, so just waiting on Edith for line 16

Hi everyone, i just want to drop in and say i will try my best to finish the 3 that i claimed. I wont be on much, my boyfriends mom just got diagnosed with ALS and they said she is in thr late stages.. so i just dont know how much ill be on and able to read..

oh, Sierra, don't even worry about those 3. this is just a silly little game. spend your time and energy on that! I'll keep you and them in my thoughts

thank you so much! i will keep listening to audio when i am at work. I did finish 1 out of the 3 while i was at work today.

if anyone has a read that works for line 16, by all means feel free to post :) if not, I won't be done with my current read until Monday night or Tuesday the latest!

i posted for line 16, we are on board 3 now :D

great work everyone!

thanks for covering Brooke, appreciate it!!

so sorry I've been MIA, I read hardly any books this month

I just finished
The Secret History of the Pink Carnation - can post review, I'll log here to copy and paste later:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
looks like it can fit 19 (park) or 23 (there's). Any preferences?
Also read
Starling House earlier in June - can I retroactively review and claim?

Just posted The House in the Cerulean Sea for Round 3's Line 26 "The":) Also I claimed Line 27 "the" for the current book I am reading (The Last Word). I have updated the spreadsheet.
