Hi everyone!I am From Lithuania, I really enjoyed the last time I played this game.
If no one would like to be a captain, I will like to try, but I live far away from US time line... So I will try... :)
Fabulous! Thanks for doing that :-) I'm excited for this to start.I live in California so I only have a couple hour time difference from the time of this challenge, and I still get confused, so good luck with that :-)
Hello everyone! I'm from Pennsylvania. I can help the captain because I've been one before.
Good morning! Megan I think you just subtract an hour, and then you have CST.
I am I little confused with when I have to Roll.On Friday 0.00 US Central Time I can Roll Right?
I always get lost in time :D
Why can it be written in GMT? That way it would be easier to me :(
So 8 a.m. in my time.
That sounds correct, because I just checked and you are 10 hours ahead of me, so it would be 8:00 in the morning for you :-)
So what about team name? Any Ideas?Something from books? movies?
I just written Eleven in ŷ and got these books name:Eleven on Top
Eleven Minutes
The Eleventh Plague
11 Birthdays
11th Hour
Eleven (Yes there a book named Eleven)
The Eleventh Commandment
The Eleventh Victim
Hi all :)We could also have someone else roll, so it isn't so painful.
I like Eleven on Top as well.
So how other think about "Eleven on Top"?We have four Yeses.
I think that is majority :-) has everybody checked in???

Review: I really enjoyed this buffy story, brought me back to the seeing the show that I miss. This particular one was one of the better novelizations. Willow gets possessed by a Chinese demon.
I updated my post #30 with completed information
Just finished my book, I'll post a review in the morning :-)

1/19⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️How it fits eight book in series
This was probably one of my favorite books by this author, she can really be hitter mess, and this was definitely a hit! Sienna was a very likable female main character, she was a very strong girl who didn't spend all her time whining about what life has dealt her. Dwayne was the perfect book boyfriend, just the right mixture of bad boy and good guy. There romance was cute and believable, it was not Insta Love, but it wasn't all kinds of drama either. Just the perfect mix! And Sienna 's Little boy Micah was what pushed this book into a five-star read, he was just so darn adorable, and she did a really good job of being a mother to him. I would definitely recommend this to people who are a fan of NA, and you could definitely read this as a standalone.

Review:
This is one of those books I'm glad to have read, but struggled a bit with enjoying the process. The world building was very well imagined and original (especially for when it was written). However, the pacing always seemed slow, and I struggled with tracking all the actions through the viewpoint of the protagonist, as well as some of her reasoning. Granted, some of that could be because the slower pace made it easy to start neglecting details when sleepy at night. Also, there was a tendency for repetitive mentions of some aspects of the world, and situations, which took me out of the story a bit. Overall though I really liked it, and wish more fiction with Vampires did something as interesting with their nature (still a better love story than Twilight).

Rose where is your text line for phone? Without that your post is incomplete and won't be counted as finished.
Sorry!There are 9, but the first one is pg. 6 "I was still reading the apartments-for-rent ads in the paper surreptitiously and making the phone calls when Mom was out of earshot".

It seems many different type of people seem to be living there, A vampire, a witch and others who want to stay out of the mainstream of life. A body shows up and it is the girlfriend of Brody who thought she left him.
this was a really good book. looking forward to reading more in this series. I all ready got the next one.

Review:Peri Reed is a drafter which means she can rewind moments of time to a different outcome. It's the job of the anchor to remember both of the timelines until the drafter relines time for themselves. Nothing about this assignment is going as planned. Peri struggles to make sense what is going on but has little control. Peri doesn't know what to believe at this point. Can Peri find out the truth?

I liked the book, maybe because I love reading YA sometimes and I am technically a young adult (almost 18) :)
It is funny that YA did not exist when I was a young adult either. I really liked Red Queen , And I am definitely not a young adult, I think it is a matter of taste, and sometimes it's just the mood you are in at the time you read the book :-)
Yeah! Because I loved Red Queen, but Steel Scars I did not enjoyed at all. I found in kind of boring.

1/26⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️How it fits first and series
I loved this book! And I had a love hate relationship with all the characters in this book. Olivia is a girl that does anything, and I mean anything, to get what she wants. Caleb is a guy who you think is all innocent and all this, and then well, not so much. Twists and turns everywhere, kept me turning the pages, I just couldn't finish this book quick enough. Flawed characters, extremely flawed, and somehow you are cheering for them, . I'm definitely going to read the next book in the series, because of any girl to be more self-centered and ambitious to get what she wants it's Leah ;-)

I think I loved twilight so much because it was the first pnr I ever read. If I read it now, I would probably gag :D
