UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments November's Build Your Own Challenge




Duration - November 1st - November 30th


In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday here in the States, any book you read will count for this challenge, and for that you should be truly thankful (which is why any book fits.)

The only restriction is that you can’t begin reading for this challenge until November 1st, and you must be finished on or before November 30th.

Please list your stats at the top of the page so I can easily spot them and update them.

Sign up below if you’d like to join us!

I'll post my challenge when I get a chance.

message 21: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments Should I start calling you Mrs. O'Neal? LOL! Great taste, by the way! I sure do love that "cop."


message 22: by Leah (new)

Leah (leahkarge) LOL! Indeed you should! ;) Although, I've been thinking about changing it up to Qhuinn now. LOL


message 23: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (last edited Oct 26, 2011 08:14PM) (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments Well, as long as you hurry you might get some Qhuinn, but we know who he's interested in and I don't think he'll be batting for both teams much longer, if you know what I mean.


message 24: by Leah (new)

Leah (leahkarge) *sighs* I know. So sad. Although, I will be happy to finally have Blay and Qhuinn together.

"Finally" is right! I was just talking about this today in the JR WARD group. I've been waiting so long for their pairing that I'm losing interest. I wish the WARDen would poop or get off the pot when it comes to them.


message 26: by Alycia (new)

Alycia | 1478 comments Hehe. Agreed!


message 27: by Leah (new)

Leah (leahkarge) I was just talking about this the other day on Facebook. LOL. Of course, waiting so long has just pissed me off and made me more anxious. She seriously needs to write it soon.


message 28: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments Right, and now she's teasing about whose book will be next, saying that at the next book signing the first question she wants to hear is "Whose book is next?" so she can finally tell us!


message 29: by Leah (new)

Leah (leahkarge) I know! I saw that! It's driving me NUTS not knowing! Someone needs to ask and report back ASAP.


message 30: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments I'm sure it'll be posted in the Book Signing thread in the JR Ward group. I've even seen people post messages from their phones while at the book signings.


message 31: by Leah (new)

Leah (leahkarge) I didn't even know there was a thread for that...LOL. Sucks that the signing isn't until next year, though.


message 32: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments You're joking, right? We have a thread for everything over there! LOL! You should know me by now - I'm obsessive about group organization!


message 33: by Leah (new)

Leah (leahkarge) When there is an overwhelming number of threads, I tend not to go exploring too much. It...well, it's overwhelming. LOL


message 34: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments Ah well, maybe someday you'll feel more adventurous!


message 35: by Leah (new)

Leah (leahkarge) LOL. Maybe! I slowly but surely work my way through the threads. LOL

Hey, there might be a lot of them, but at least they're organized!

message 47: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments Hi Zumba! I'm glad you want join!

In the first post it explains what you need for this challenge. Basically, you have the books you want to read and you make them fit in this challenge.

Duration - November 1st - November 30th

In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday here in the States, any book you read will count for this challenge, and for that you should be truly thankful (which is why any book fits.)

For this month, ANY book counts, so like the other girls have done, you post letting me know you want to join, then as you go you list your books. They can be ANYTHING that makes you think of Thanksgiving, or being thankful, or, like I said, for this month only ANY book counts.

Check out the posts in October's Challenge and you'll see how other people do it.
