Hi all, OK, so I had a little disagreement with my account, but I should be up and running soon hehehehe :) Just wanted to say hello.

Also, please let me know with a PM if you'd like to join in the fun for the Moderator's Read-a-Thon starting tomorrow, and tell me your page goal if you're joining in! You can find details in our Mailbox readathon thread (link above).

What to do: Set a page goal, read said page goal within the timeframe of the readathon. Also, read one book with our team theme (read a book you've been meaning to get to for at least a year and haven't yet) and one book with our team color cover (Mango = orange, but also Sonia posted a picture with various stages of ripeness, so other acceptable options are a light green, a yellow, or a red.)... and that's pretty much all there is to it! :)

Welcome to the team, April! In addition to the stuff Steven mentioned, be sure to check out the information about the Moderators' Read-a-Thon that starts tomorrow (eeeep!) We'd love to have you join us if you'd like :)

Barb, we think alike. :D

Be a-feared, Steven :) Thinking like me can be hazardous to your health!

haha

Mango Tango, you have a new member. Please welcome, ~Karia~ (052).

A couple of questions.

Would these covers work for our colours:
The woods can't add bookcover with the last one, sorry.

I read Kindle editions of all books, but they don't always have pagenumbers - for this challenge I will just add a format that has pagenumber then. Is this right?

Also for this challenge it is the pagenumbers that count so I can read shorter books than 160 pages and they will count? As long as I don't add them to my main challenge bookshelf.

The only one I don't think is a good color is - I never saw mangoes with that color and I buy a lot of them from several varieties :o)

As the other questions, the answer is yes to all. You can always go to the thread Page Numbers...Just About Page Numbers to check with Lisa Kay the page numbers of the kindle edition.

I was in doubt about Magicians Nephew but on my Ipad the colour is actually quite green.

I know about the link and have used it a couple of times but if there is not a legit source for pagenumbers she can't add them and that is needed for this challenge.

But I now have several options and I will chose some with page numbers.

Thank you Sonia

Welcome to the team, Karia :)

Welcome Karia!!! :D

Hello Karia!

Alas, Steven and Evana and the rest of you Mango Tangoanians.... Karia has deleted her account and her post requesting to be assigned a Team.

I saw that a bit ago. Weird! Wonder why she deleted her account?!

**shrugs** Could be any number of reasons. The list is endless.

Hey, Steven, thanks for answering questions in the other Teams' threads while I was catching some Zzzzzzs. �

No worries. I was there discussing books an thus it started notifying me. I had asked some of the questions myself so I figured I'd jump in!

I appreciate it - a lot! (((Cyber Hugs)))

Psst, Lk -- go read a book! :p

:) hugs back at you!

LOL! I'm listening to one... and pausing when I have to answer an important questions. Muti-tasking. Opera would be so proud of me. �

Maybe we scared her off? *making a mental note not to be so exuberant next time :)*

I dunno. Oh well. More will come along. *sigh*

I *really* need to remember to check out my library's selection of audio books. I'm sitting here chatting away instead of reading. Must go read... "she said, before once again refreshing her notifications..."

Hey all - I finished another book today & have posted to my shelf...now the question is does this book count towards the may RaT as I started it before May 1 but finished it May 2? Let me know & I will email Barb the particulars so she may add to our totals....

Yep, it counts, Sallie! Anything *finished during the RaT counts :) If you could post the details -- title, number of pages, and whether or not it meets the team color or team theme challenge -- HERE , that would b great. That's the thread we're using to keep track of all the RaT stuff, so nothing gets missed :)

Hi barb. I've posted my info in the thread. Hope u find it if not let me & I will resend.

I found it, Sallie, thanks :)

I tried to do that yesterday and almost fall asleep while doing the RaT duties - note to self: stay away from audio when tired

I do most of my listening while I'm driving. It's better, imo, than radio :) Although, as my son just told me recently, "only old people still listen to the radio!"

(view spoiler)[Mango Tangoians! You have a new member, Lauren (UK) {Name Alert}(050). Please help her navigate the rapid pace of our current R-a-T. (hide spoiler)]


Sorry, I might change my mind about putting Lauren on your Team. I sent a PM to Steven. I'll get back to you.

YAY! Welcome Lauren!!!

I'll send you a message ;D

Welcome to the team, Lauren! If you're interested in joining the Read-a-Thon that's already in progress, check out the basic information here, Moderator's RaT

It's not too late to sign up, but you'll want to read all the info about a page goal, our team theme and the team color cover challenge so we can get accurate info when you sign up :)

If you have any questions, ask away!

Sorry, I might change my mind about putting Lauren on your Team. I sent a PM to Steven. I'll get back to you.

LOL OK :)

*sneaksneak*

on all of your reading this past week! (This cat cracks me up! Reminds me of my kitten)

Even Eeyore looks sleepy :) G'nite all!

I have had a very slow start to this RaT. I read a lot the end of April so needed a break and then being on holiday visiting family also reduced my reading time. By the end of yesterday I had read 60 pages towards my goal of 1000 pages.

A 4 hour flight followed by an 8 hour delay before my onward flight has changed that! I have now read 650 pages. My TBR has been read, reading something else now that I will finish tomorrow and then I will do the colour.

Deadline for changing goals or join the Read-a-Thon ends in 15 hours

So is that 650 pages total so far, Jane? And if you could tell us what you read for your TBR theme book, I'll add it to our list. Thanks!

Ooops nevermind LOL I just saw your post in the other thread :)

I added a new member to your Team. Please welcome Lisa (Aussie Girl) (150).

Hi everyone, Looking forward to getting into the challenge and talking to you all.

Hi Lisa welcome to mango tango
