I can be your partner, especially since we read very similar books. You do read a couple more a week than I do, but I'll..."



Yay!

Paris usually creates the threads for folks, so as it is her game, I will defer the creation of your thread to her. Adding folks is a fairly easy thing, so I was able to add in Annika to the other game fairly quickly.

they don't care what we think. i'm so looking for a good substitute

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Would I be able to give this a shot?


message 219: by ⚜️ݴ (new)

⚜️ݴ the Bookwyrm (xar-the-bookwyrm) Maddison wrote: "Would I be able to give this a shot?"

Sure! You just have to post how many books you'd be able to read in a week or so, that way members can match up with you a little better. Once you post that, you just have to wait and see if someone is looking for a game that reads about the same as you do.

Trust me, it's no fun to be in an unevenly matched game!


message 220: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Yeah that's true. So I post it here?

If so, I read about 2-4 books a week. But then that does vary depending what happens during the week.

Yup, you did great!

I read a bit more than that, between 4-6 in a week, so I wouldn't be a good partner for you, but hopefully someone is looking for a Monopoly partner and will get back to you soon!


message 222: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Bummer. Chances are they won't be, because when I posted it hadn't been active in a while. But thanks :)

Eh, it fluctuates...all it takes is someone posting saying they're interested in a game!


message 224: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Not this time :p Thanks though :D


message 225: by Kim (new)

Kim Anderson (kimmatski) | 873 comments I will play! I'm playing in one game that we are trying to keep at a book a week and that's way too slow for me. Would love to play a second game. I've been lurking this thread waiting for someone.


message 226: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Seriously Kim? Yes please!!!! That would be amazing!


message 227: by Kim (new)

Kim Anderson (kimmatski) | 873 comments Yeah, when they get our thread up, if you want me to take care of tracking and stuff, I can do that. Just let me comment first.

Then just let me know like how many books we want to do max a week. I don't want to, like, have a really good week and leave you sending snipers to take me out or anything. Ha ha.


message 228: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Yes please can you do that? :)

Haha I don't hold grudges. There are weeks when I read heaps, and then days when I don't. So you choose that too :) I'll have a little reading time a day, I hope. And if I don't, then I'll catch up :D But quick question, can I count books that I started before this challenge?


message 229: by Kim (new)

Kim Anderson (kimmatski) | 873 comments I will have to check the rules on that. I don't remember. I'm on my phone right now though. I will keep watching for the alert that our thread is ready and then we can chat over there. Just let me take the first few posting spots before you comment.

Yay! I'm excited!


message 230: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Sure thing :)

Yeah as am I :D


message 231: by Paris (new)

Paris (pah13) | 4285 comments Hi ladies, your game thread is Here

Maddison to answer your question, you can count books started after the challenge, unless it's something you've had in progress for a while and you re-read the part you've already read.

Happy Playing!

Kim Anderson (kimmatski) | 873 comments Thanks!

message 237: by Shan ~A~ (new)

Shan ~A~ (thebookglutton) | 1217 comments If there is anyone I can join this sounds fun, the amount I read during a week varies between 1-4. It all depends on the format and how busy my life is at the time.

This sounds fun though, so let me know.


message 238: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Shan, I'll read with you :) The game I'm playing currently is miserable because I'm really losing.

What do we need to do to get started?

Paris will set up a thread for you guys when she gets a chance and you'll be all set! Just watch this thread, she'll pop in here and let you know when she has it up.


message 241: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Okay thanks :D


message 242: by Maddie (new)

It will look the same as the game you're currently playing in, just with you and Shan.


message 244: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Okay thanks :) do you want to join us?

⚜️ݴ the Bookwyrm (xar-the-bookwyrm) Maddison wrote: "Okay thanks :) do you want to join us?"

Thanks so much for the offer, Maddison!! I read a book a day, at least, so I've pretty much decided to abstain from the game, because it's not fair to my "opponents" and not so fun for me to win all the time! *hugs* I really appreciate you offering though!


message 246: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Ah right. What do you do, to have all that time on your hands??

I'm a stay at home mom that homeschools my son. When he has independent work time, I sit down with my Kindle and read, then as a family, we've scheduled an hour's worth of reading time before bed. My husband and I switch off on reading to our son, but inevitably, I'll wind up reading after everyone has gone to bed.


message 248: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Wow that's lucky!

*shrugs* It was more like we didn't have a choice, especially since I went in for Parent Teacher Conferences in October of 2014 and found out from my son that he'd been choked on the playground because he was (and still is) developmentally delayed. School and Superintendent didn't want to do anything about it, so we withdrew him. We homeschool on a tight budget, and wind up getting a lot of things at tax time.

For me, the lucky thing is that my son is still alive and he's thriving here at home.


message 250: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 3778 comments Wow that's brave of you to home school but smart, I believe. How do you homeschool? You must be smart.
