Hi Mary! Yep, we're on Team 9. I've been trying to think of a catchy team name relating to the number 9 but nothing good is coming to me.

Yes, surprisingly you're our only Mary this round.

Welcome Nika!

Anyone up for being team captain?

Before I volunteer....are we playing to win or are we playing for fun?

Can we do both? Have fun while winning

I just have to know is everyone going to have their reviews in by Thursday so I can harass to make sure you are getting them done or do you want til Friday?

I am not that good at reviews but thursday works for me.Where do you post the review?

Here in the group once you finish your books. It doesn't have to be long. I think like 3 sentences is enough.

Great :)

are you the team captain?

I don't know. That's why I was asking questions. I wouldn't mind I have done this before.

Well if you have experience then im fine with you being Capt.

I vote for Nika for Captain!! I am good with winning and fun. Having my reviews in by Thursday will be no problem for the most part.

And as to names I am good with anything. Also, just a reminder that I am moving this weekend and may be out of pocket for a day or so.

I'm fine with turning in my reviews by Thursday as well.

Then. I will be the captain

Huzzah!!!!

Great, thanks for volunteering, Nika!

Looks like we're only waiting for Jess to check in. And now the wait for Friday begins...

Yes! I'm super excited! No problem I hope we make this fun and win. I love the name also

I just sent Jess a pm, so hopefully she'll check in by tomorrow.

Since I don't think I've played on teams with any of you (if I have and forgot, please forgive me!) can we introduce ourselves?

I am married and the mother of 4 grown (or almost grown kids), and I have one beautiful grandchild named Hannah Rose who is 4 mos. old. I live in New Orleans and work full time as an Allstate agent. I love to read romance almost exclusively - most sub genres - and I also love fantasy and UF. I read about 3 books a week all on my Nook tablet.

I am married with 1 fur baby, I am in school for my Master in Elementary Education. I am currently subbing. I read about 2 books a week but I could do more if I didn't spend so much time on GR. I read any and everything.

I am a teenager that reads any science fiction and fantasy I can get a hold of I LOVE BOOKS!!!!!

I am a Mum of two boys and I live in Northern Ireland. I read lots and I will give any genre a go. I usually read a book a day.

I live in a small town in Arizona but I work in Phoenix as a front office manager and legal videographer for a court reporting firm. I'm single and like spending as much time as possible in my quiet home buried in books. I wish I could read a book a day, but it ends up being more like 2-3 books a week. I like SF, thrillers, dystopian novels, some fantasy, and mysteries. Goodreads has introduced me to paranormal romance and historical fiction which I have been enjoying so far.

It's great to get to know everyone! I look forward to chatting with you all during the challenge!

One more day! Still no word from Jess :(.

Jenne said we can still roll and she also sent out PMs. We should be fine and I'm pretty sure if she doesn't respond before next Friday we won't be penalized.

Just a reminder I am in the GMT time zone so I my check ins may be at funny times compared to the rest of you. We actually have sunshine here today for a change. I have a cottage pie ready to go in the oven and I am going to read in the garden for a bit.

That sounds like fun!

Sounds wonderful, Grace!

Hi Jess!

Every Friday at 12:01 CST we will roll dice and then we will land on a spot on the game board that will tell us what number in a series or pick by Jenne we will be able to read.

You will read your book then post your review on Thursday by 8PM giving us chance to check in and roll at midnight.

Tonight I roll and we will land on a spot on the board and that's the number we match up to a series or alternate.

If you get 12 you can either read , 1,2, or 12 or the alternate for 12.

Your review doesn't have to be long. 3-4 lines is fine.

Yes and I am too. I haven't played in a while.

Good to see you here, Jess! Hope you kick that cold soon!


It's almost Friday!!!! :D

We rolled a 6

We can read 6th in a series or A cover Item Weapon
