message 67: by Jenn (new)

Jenn (tellingmelies) | 3268 comments I have one review to post and am finishing up another read - so I should have two coming hopefully today. Just depends on how busy work stays lol


message 68: by ~ Giulia ~ (new)

~ Giulia ~ | 689 comments I should have a ~400 pages book done by tomorrow


message 69: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Bernhardt | 103 comments Well i have read approximately 1500 pages this month that I havent banked. I am having trouble finding exact though, due to it being on a Kindle and not having hard copies to compare it to.

Yay! Good job Trinity!

My e-reader seems to have its own way to count pages too (which is different from the one used by the program on my laptop, which is different from the one used by the app on my phone, which are often different from the page count shown on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ...). Fortunately for this challenge we have to pick the pages number of the most rated edition and not the number we have actually read or I'd be in trouble :D


message 71: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Bernhardt | 103 comments Well one book is completed and had 660 pages. The other i am almost halfway through and it has 1981 pages. Do we have to finish to count? Since I am a little late getting started I am not yet up to date on the how to for this challenge.

Hello Team Red Penguin!

I just wanted to double check with everyone to see if you are missing any members - whereas they checked in but haven't mentioned if or what they are reading. I have noticed that some teams don't have everyone posting on the review thread so I figured I should stop by the team chats to make sure they are still chatting and reading..

Please let me know if you are missing any members and I will send a message asking if they are still participating in the challenge.


message 73: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Bernhardt | 103 comments Ok so I am reading:
Super Powereds: Year 4
The Kingmaker (The Kingmaker Trilogy, #1) by Gemma Perfect
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1) by J.K. Rowling
Holy Bible New Living Translation by Anonymous

I finished Super Powereds Year 3 (Super Powereds, #3) by Drew Hayes but haven't reviewed yet.

Just wanted to let you all know that Elizabeth has just messaged me. She is opting out of the challenge at this time. If we do get any newcomers to this challenge, you will get a replacement. I believe that there is one team ahead of you to get a new player though but I will let you all know.
