Hey. Even if you make an announcement mistake, please don’t delete your post. Thx

Shannon wrote: "Hey. Even if you make an announcement mistake, please don’t delete your post. Thx"

sorry Shannon won't do it again please accept my apologies

Rule: The chosen book must be the same page count, or higher of the book they are matching.

Tammie's book is 150 pages, but Danielle book is 147 pages (the book you listed right now)

My book is 153 pages Pretty Poison

That's fine, Danielle.
Just the note that you should post exact edition player is reading :)

Ok Ellen Let me have a look I am not doing very well at this
Danielle is reading a different edition to the one i posted

Pretty Poison

this is 153 pages I do apologise again and I do hope I get better

Marie, don't worry! You have still time to get hang of the announcing.
I was announcer last time, so I have learned all thing what to announce and how.

Elen wrote: "That's fine, Danielle.

Again I apologise Ellen do you want me to change the edition on that post? or will the note above work?

You're doing great Marie! It's always hard seeing the edition when you do add book/author since that doesn't list page #s.

Or....a dark wizard hexxed the link and made it the wrong edition - I bet that is what happened!

Note above work fine!

Suzanne - that is very big chances what happened :)

HUfflepuffs second beater drives in with an attack on Shannon by reading the same book Mated to the Storm Dragon

Hufflepuff Keeper is now in the Game hoping to break that quaffle she is going to read

I really don't like dark wizards and their hexing all over the place

Gryffindor's Beater

Judith is flying out to defend Shannon.

Mated to the Storm Dragon - Judith [Currently Katie is reading it]

"lying out" - I'm totally imagining Judith on her broom, in a really precarious out-stretched position trying to intercept the Bludger.

You won't take offence if I hope you don't quite make it?! ;-P

Gryffindor's Beater

Our Beater Tammie did damage to Chaser Talia by reading Posies and Poison 6/23/18. She is out of the game until she is defended.

nope. Danielle read Pretty Poison 23 June. Talia was reading Posies & Poison. Danielle's book was 153 to Talia's 150.

Danielle, though, loves swinging at any free bludger!

Gryffindor's Keeper

Keeper Teddie is ready to defend our hoops and stop Hufflepuff from scoring.

The Girl in the Spider's Web - Teddie [Read by Talia]

Hey dudes! get back on the right pitch! I mean, I don't mind if you wanna go play the other team, but it's a tad insulting, ya know?!

I am! :)

Katie wrote: "Shannon wrote: "Who’s defending Sandy?"

I am! :)"

Thanks Katie! As one of the mods who went through the last game gathering who did what, I’m sensitive to noticing the names. It’d be a nightmare trying to figure out who did what without it. ;)
