A Crazy Little Thing Called YA discussion

Are we going to try and do buddy reads along with the book of the months?

Ok, so there is no keyword reading challenge for September so far. Can we organise one for ourselves? Is there anyone interested to organise one? DM me, if you are intersted sharing the work with me to take some pressure off poor Becca.

Yea, you can! That would be great, thank you! :)
I'm so super sorry that I haven't even calculated all the points from the July one, I really just need some time to get everything together

Don't worry, Becca, Trisha and I will probably be the ones to organise it, so take your time and relax.

Hello! Are you still accepting mod requests?

Okay, thank you!

hey, when are the october botm and the teams for the october challenge going to be announced?

Hey Lucy,
we have decided to add a new feature, meaning that each person, if they want, can name one other they'd like to share a group with, so that is why we have not annaouced any groups yet. As last time you just go ahead and anything you have read since the first willbe counted :)
Please let us know if there is someone you'd want to share a group with. We'll process the names and draw/determine the groups tomorrow at the latest.

i'll be okay with anyone in the group. it doesn't matter. it's more about the experience for me. but i like to chat with the other members tho, so i would like to be with people who would want that too :)

Hey there. I’m a ya fiction author. I just relaunched my debut novel and a sequel. Would love to share with this group but don’t want to violate any rules. Thanks so much. You can find out more about my work at: www.esjameson.com.

Hi! Are there Readathons in this chat?

Hi Adela,

I think there are enough Moderators already, Ana and Becca are only temporarily absent and it was them to start this, so we should not ride roughshot over them here. I'd be unhappy to join any more moderators before at least Becca is back, OK?

Oh no, Monique, I think Adela was talking about getting Sophie a spot on a team for the keyword challenge.

Ah, well, there are two in my team that have not signed in yet, what about the other teams?

On the green team, there is only one person that hasn’t signed in yet.

So that would mean for Sophie to join team red then?

Yes, no problem with that.

Quick question. In the rules for the first keyword challenge, it says that you could get bonus points if the book read was published in the same month ( can be different year) as the challenge month. Does that apply to this months challenge as well?
Thanks! :)

No, we decided to discontinue with that rule. Sorry :(

Hey :) I wanted to make a suggestion about challenge scores. Maybe you could update the scores and post them on the sign up thread like once or twice a week. I know I like seeing all the teams scores. I'm sure others would love it too! <3

I like it too! Monique is keeping track of Green and Blue, and I'm doing the points for Red....but I think we can work something out!

Well, quite honestly the way I post the accounts all one has to do is to go to the lastes post in the other threads or have themselves notified of posts on the other threads, but OK, I'll post the present count for blue and Green there.

Are we having a November challenge?

Ok, thank you!

hi, who won in the october challenge and what were the final points?

Sorry, accounting's been a bit slow for me, was a bit busy with an exam:
Final points:
Red: 758
Blue: 318
Green: 661
