My internet has been out for the past two days -___- (Apparently some idiot kids were messing with the outside lines and tripped it up, we didn't even have electricity for mo..."
Good to see you back. I was getting worried... Going without electricity's no fun, but being without internet is worse, I think. lol
The new goal is "Read a book where the page numbers add to 9 (i.e. 345 pages = 3+4+5 = 12)".
I think we might have something already. Brb checking.

Ah unfortunately the only book with 9 for page numbers is Rumors and it isn't completed yet.
I thought there were some more, but those are all 8s hehe.

It will work for goals Read a book that is book 4 in a series and Read a book that is in the Amazon 2008 bestsellers ()
Pages: 753


Great, thanks Lau!
I'm currently contemplating which goal to use your Twilight book for, hmm... Let me check currently-reading shelves to see where people are at with their books and then go from there.

I'll go with the Amazon bestseller list as the number 4 in a series is on the Varro spreadsheet to which I don't have access.
EMMA, not to worry, we'll need yours soon as well I'm sure because with our luck that goal will pop up very soon again and then we have an option :-)

Nothing on either spreadsheet.

Alright ladies, I'll be off for a few hours. I'll be back shortly before the next round to do a last check-up with shelves etc.
*yaaaaaawn*
I slept like a stone last night, and for quite a few hours, but I'm still knackered again tonight. Must be all that lazing around reading.. ;-)
is the countdown to the end of Round II.

Great job everyone!
I won't rush my reading now I'm off the hook for goals so they can be counted in round 3 :)
Btw, we keep going back and forth between 3rd and 4th place which is fantastic! Looks like we'll be at 4th for the merge and be merged with Team Alexander (was Barca and Xena)
So with just over 2 hours to go, thanks for being a great team Vlad!
Unless you have a book for a goal you may want to pause it for the next round so it can be used for future goals. Our new team name and discussion thread will be revealed soon :o

Thanks, Teri! Any and every book will help! :-)
And I'm just going to put this out there: if you feel overwhelmed with so many people on the same team once we merge and information flying left and right, and feel like you need a quieter place to let us know which books you've finished and/or are planning to read, feel free to do as Varro already did this round - use the original team threads to post, or come back to this one, whichever works for you.
Captains will find the necessary info one way or another ;-) Even if it could take us a while or two from time to time hehe.

Team Vlad rocks!!
Let's keep up the awesome reading, ladies! You're all doing splendidly! :-)
On that note, I bid you all a good day/night as I'm hitting the sack.

I am currently reading Timeless and Listen, Slowly, neither of which work for any current goals, so I'll make sure to finish them after the new round starts.
Thanks Joanne! It is really helpful to have currently reading books on the spreadsheet. Saves us captains lots of time later :)
