Hey, just another question, does it count if you read a long fan fiction? Or does it have to be a real published book?

Ooh that’s a good question

I've had this question ever since the BOTM for October came out, but I was wondering what we would do if a book were to fit into more than one category? I have a few books I want to read that are by the author of some of the BOTM but also have black/purple/orange covers and I am wondering which amount of points I should give them during next month's reading challenge.

@Evelyn - I’d say u can choose whichever prompt is the highest πŸ₯° So in that case, u could put the Colored Book prompt for 75 pts instead of the author of a BOTM prompt for 50 ptsβ£οΈπŸ«‚

I’m sorry it’s so confusing lollll
We’ll send more information soon before the πŸŽƒ Challenge starts!! πŸ˜™πŸ˜†πŸ“š

Thanks a lot! I'm trying to get an idea of what I'm planning on reading for October and this is extremely helpful

ok i have a few more questions to add here if you don’t mind.

1. Do you get points if you’ve read a BOTM before?
2. Does rereading a book start to finish count for points?

btw this is random, but i’m so glad there’s a place to ask questions! im kinda confused bc im a new member so this is really helpful! i didn’t know this existed!!

1. Not for the September Reading Challenge (but that might change for the October one....but if it does, we'll let u guys know & explain the changes 🀣πŸ₯°)

2. Yep!! (including rereading BOTMs) Also, audiobooks, graphic novels, ebooks, & fanfictions count (as long as they're over 100 pgs!!)

Where do I see which House I'm in

ur in Black Rose!!!!! <3

Just wondering, ive read some of the BOTMs for October but i kinda prefer to just reread them instead of replacing them, is that fine or do i need to get special request books?

I've been asking quite a few questions regarding the color of a book's cover lately, and I promise this will be the last one, but what if there are multiple editions of a book and you're reading a copy that's one color, but a different edition has a different cover. For example, Ε·±¦ΣιΐΦ shows a gray cover A Court of Silver Flames but my copy (and most others I believe) is orange. I'm assuming it counts as the usual 75 points for a book with a black/orange/purple cover but I just want to double-check.

XD it's ok!! ask as many questions as u want!!!
you can go by your the copy you're reading (the orange one!!)

sorry for asking, but if i started a book yesterday (in september) but i finish it today or tmrw (in october), does that count?

Em wrote: "sorry for asking, but if i started a book yesterday (in september) but i finish it today or tmrw (in october), does that count?"

yes! as long as u finish it in October then it counts πŸ’˜πŸ«ΆπŸ»

thank you πŸ’—πŸ’— this section has been really helpful

I have a question. If we have read a botm before, let's say aggtm, I don't get points for that rn, it does not contribute to October until I reread it but I CAN get a special request book for aggtm because we get 1 srb for every botm we have alr read. Right?
Idk it seems simple enough but someone said something else somewhere and now I'm confused

………β€�.. I honestly haven’t thought abt that β€� lemme ask Izzy and I’ll get back to u in a few hrs ( bc I think Izzy is sleeping rn lol 🀧🫢🏻 )

if u have already read a BOTM, u do not need to reread it to get a SRB πŸ©ΈπŸ‘»

I have a question. I'm just starting to get active again on Ε·±¦ΣιΐΦ, and I don't read much anymore because of a lot of reasons, so is it required to do monthly readings and stuff like that?

Okay ty!

I was in a group where I got kicked out for not doing the monthly readings so I was worried lol

Briar wrote: "I was in a group where I got kicked out for not doing the monthly readings so I was worried lol"

that’s horrible omg πŸ€§πŸ«‚ we’re never gonna kick members out for not being active enough so dw πŸ’˜

Where do I go to request a special request book?

In the β€œof the monthsβ€� tab, there’s a thread that says β€œalready read 1+ BOTM?β€� And you jut say what book you’ve already read and then your special request.
