For team b scheming and shenanigans

Just copying Bea's earlier post for reference:

Bea - Prompt 3
Coralie - Prompt 4? (you said any)
Dee - Prompt 2 (although planning to do all prompts)
June -
Meg - Prompt 1 (or 6)
Susan - Prompt 5

Prompt 4 works well for me. I will also be reading a book that fits prompt 2 but is YA so can be read in a week in case Dee's book doesn't work for her (always good to have a backup).

Prompt 1 book finished! Just started my Prompt 6 - Below Deck

Prompt 5 book finished: Odd One Out, 309 pp - finished 6/25

Suddenly, I have two books available digitally from the library. Both will work for either prompt 2 or prompt 4, but I think it's unlikely I'll finish whichever one I start today before the Readathon is over. Luckily, it looks like between Coralie and Dee, we have both of those covered, so at this point I'll just be reading for pages.

unless something crazy happens i'm on track to finish my prompt 2 book (but if also fits in the owned books prompt if we need to juggle books)

Finished my prompt 6 read - Below Deck

I should finish my prompt 4 book later today.

I'm about halfway through my Prompt 3 book. I will focus on it tomorrow.

So, we have finished (or close to finishing):
Prompt 1 - Completed (Meg) Revenge
Prompt 2 - Completed (Dee) The Gilded Hour
Prompt 3 - Completed (Bea) As a Driven Leaf
Prompt 4 - Completed (Coralie) The Winter of the Witch
Prompt 5 - Completed (Susan) Odd One Out
Prompt 6 - Completed (Meg) Below Deck

OK... that leaves mine. Still working on it.

Go Bea!

Finished Prompt 4 - The Winter of the Witch

Meg wrote: "Go Bea!"

179 pages to go. I am going to make it!

i finished up my prompt 2 book last night - it totally sucked me in (and i just requested the second book in the series from the library) - if you like historical fiction check it out - The Gilded Hour

Hey, team. I fell yesterday and seemed to have injured my wrist. Although it is getting better as the day and Tylenol go, I am wearing a brace and unable to lift or hold my BIG Book that I was reading for extra points. I will finish my Prompt...maybe even tonight...and then will focus on the Kindle for pages.

Take care Bea!

Oh no Bea! Hope it's on the mend quickly

Good news! I found a way to read that BIG book, so I might just make it (only 200 pages to go). Plus, I will finish my prompt today.

My wrist is slowly getting better, but I am still limited in what I can do....so it is read, read, read!

Team goal completed and posted.

Well done Bea, and sounds like a good excuse to read!

I am going to crow a bit here, and I realize that some of you read much more than I do...but, I read 997 pages not counting the book for the prompt! I just wanted to say thanks, to y'all...and to Tien for this read-a-thon. It feels good to have done so much better than my usual.

Pretty impressive, Bea. My total, including the book for the prompt, was 549 pages. And I'm actually even feeling pretty good about that. I think it's the first Readathon I've contributed to in any real way.

Same here, Susan.
