Bianca (biancamaartje) Hi! I'm new at the whole reading in a pool but I would like to try. Could you tell me what you mean by 'keep track', is that a day to day number of pages or chapters?

Books I want to add to the pool : BZRK (BZRK, #1) by Michael Grant
Ruby Red (Precious Stone Trilogy, #1) by Kerstin Gier
Legend (Legend, #1) by Marie Lu
The Red Pyramid (Kane Chronicles, #1) by Rick Riordan
The Maze Runner (Maze Runner, #1) by James Dashner

( Is that what you mean?)

Yes, But reserve a post when I make the offical thread for it. When you read any of the books in the pool list it. The person who read the most wins.


message 4: by Bianca (new)

Bianca (biancamaartje) Okay, I think I got it. I downloaded all the books in the Pool. We start June 1st I assume?
(sorry about all the (dumb) questions, but I've really never done something like this before).


message 5: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
Not all but the one you wanna read. It's okay I did it first time last month. Hopefully more people will join us.


message 6: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne I shall join you on this quest! Though I know I will not come out victorious. I shall think on it and reply again once I have figured out me five books for the pool.


message 7: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
okay I'll add you :D


message 8: by Sophie (new)

Sophie L | 14 comments so im thinking of doing this but wht do i do if ive already read the books do I just reread them for the pool?


message 9: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne Exactly. Since it's about who can read the most books from the book pool in June you would need to re-read them in June for it to count.


message 10: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
Sophie - Yes, you can r-read them :D

Cheyenne - Yup

Hopefully more people will join in


message 11: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne Yeah, I was thinking about adding the June monthly reads into my five.


message 12: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
Thats a good idea :D


message 13: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne Yep! It more of an incentive to read the monthly books and I only have to pick two more. Unless you just want to add them to the book pool each month by default I'm assuming we're going to do this every month yeah?


message 14: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
Yeah we are :D


message 15: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne If you're going to add the monthly books automatically then my five picks are:
Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1) by Kristin Cashore Bloodmark by Aurora Whittet Curve Day by L.R. Currell The Summer I Gave Up Boys by Kassandra Kush Cryer's Cross by Lisa McMann


message 16: by Bianca (new)

Bianca (biancamaartje) Oh yes! Eragon...LOVE that book. Guys I just have to say that I am loving this idea, it just gives me so much inspiration and I'm seeing so many good books I would have never heard about otherwise. Thanks.


message 17: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne @Bianca: It is a pretty cool idea isn't it . I'm looking forward to it!

@Deidre: No, it wouldn't be the same without you. Lol. XD

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
I'll add the books to the pool later. I need to get ready for work .


message 19: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
Added :D


message 20: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne We're movin on up! I'm really excited! How does everyone think they'll do?


message 21: by Bianca (new)

Bianca (biancamaartje) I hope to do 3 or 4. June is a busy month work wise. When we start do we post starting date and end or post how far we are every (other) day? How do we do this?


message 22: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
3-4 if I'm lucky. I work most of this month XD. I'm about to make a thread for the June Book Pool please reserve a spot there.


message 23: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne I'm aiming for 5/6! Not sure if I'll be able to do it though. :)


message 24: by Bianca (new)

Bianca (biancamaartje) Hey guys! Almost June!! I am actually getting excited about it. How about you ? I've already decided what will be my first book, Red pyramid.
(I might be a little overly fond of this concept XD)


message 25: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne XD! I'll probably read A Summer Without Boys first.


message 26: by Bianca (new)

Bianca (biancamaartje) Do you maybe have that book in epub? Or PDF because I can not find it on the internet... Even if I don't get to read it in June, I would like to eventually.


message 27: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne No sorry. I don't have many of those. If I find a place that has free books in those files I promise to let you know. Check this out though. I emailed her and got mine. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...


message 28: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne Oh! Btw all monthly books are apart of the book pool and will continue to be so in future book pools. So reading "Clockwork Angel" also counts here. Airi just hasn't added it yet.


message 29: by Airi, Admin (new)

Airi Chan (airichan90) | 900 comments Mod
I totally forgot about adding Clockwork Angel to the pool. I'll do that later when I'm on my laptop


message 30: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne I had remembered it, but then I forgot til just then. Lol. Ok Airi. Thanks.
