Karla Okay, I have added everyone's finished books. I finished reading a book last night and just finished the audiobook (which I really enjoyed!). So, I rearranged a few things, we now have completed our first round of the spell-it-out! We have three books done in round two and two books read for round three (which won't count unless we finish round two). Nice job, everyone!


message 258: by Karla (new)

Karla Update: I was able to rearrange two books, so now we have four read for round two and one for round three.

message 262: by Audrey Jane (new)

Audrey Jane | 1749 comments Finished The Greyfriar today (updated post 45). I'm currently reading Dragon Bound by Thea Harrison which is good for a H but I still need to read further to find characters so we could have other possibilities.

@ Karla; I'm first going to read Dragon Bound and then Mind Games, I'm in the mood for a little bit of PNR :)


message 263: by Karla (new)

Karla I've updated the list. We only have one book left for round two. We have three books read for round three.


I don't know if we will be able to use Dragon Bound. It depends on the character names, we have too many H books.

We can if we read a lot and start a 5th read through.

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5511 comments Or use the character Rune instead of Run to You and I'll read a different letter.

Yes!


message 271: by Karla (new)

Karla I fixed some things. Danielle, I have you down for Up From the Grave, which will finish out round two, and The Only One Who Matters, which I realized I had down in round four.

Tea, I have you down for Until We Touch for round three.

I have to read Precinct 13 by Sunday, which only works for H, so far, so I might wait until Sunday to finish it. I have an O book I can try to read by Saturday and, I can try to find a U book for round three that I can get on audiobook. And not bother with the M book I have on audio.

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5511 comments Up From the Grave will be finished tonight, I've only got an hour left.

For 3 round I'll read Unbound. I'll also read Until Trevor for 4th round. So that's leave only 1 U

Okay, I'll see if I can find one on audio.

❶İձ❶ (ttea) | 9616 comments Karla read what you want. I have O & U book ready (beside the one I'm reading at the moment).
When we got the word, I kinda suspected that Danielle and I are gonna end up with vowels since we read more then rest of you and can easier switch to something else. I'm prepared :D

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5511 comments I'm with Tea, we have the O's and U's and can change books easily, so read what you want.

Okay, I'll still try to read the O book, I have to read it for another challenge, but I don't know if I can finish it by Saturday. I'll still look for some U books, just in case we get Humorous again.

I feel bad that you and Danielle are pulling the weight of the group! I'm trying to contribute as much as I can. I'm pretty competitive!


message 277: by Catherine (new)

Catherine | 5067 comments just a quick question....are you sure we can only count the bonus genre once? because I snuck a peek at another team, and they had it more than once....if that is the case...we could have more pints from last week.:)


message 278: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa | 134 comments I finished Destined for Doon (7/23).
I'm heading to the library tomorrow and I'll try to pick up a few more books! :)

Yes, we can only count the bonus genre once. It has been asked a few times in the Captains' Thread. The other team marks the books that can count as the genre, but they only get the 20 bonus points one time.

No, it's a team effect. All contribute to spell out word.

*checks post with spell-out*
Who stole my O?! :P


message 285: by Audrey Jane (new)

Audrey Jane | 1749 comments Yes, in Dragon Bound there's a character named Rune :) If we can't use it I will hurry up a bit so I can start on the 'O'.

I realize, now, how that statement sounded. This was not a dig at anyone! I was just saying I wish I could read faster, so I could help out the team more, and my other teams in other challenges.

I didn't see the new book yet. I will add everything now.

What letter you want me next to tackle?

I'm updating the list now, I'll let you know what we have as soon as I'm done.


message 291: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa | 134 comments I picked up a U book, knowing that it was one of the hard letters. I'll start it and hope to finish it! I'll update my post with it now!


message 292: by Karla (last edited Jul 24, 2014 02:05PM) (new)

Karla Update: We have two rounds complete.

Tea's U book will complete round three.

As Danielle said, I moved her R book down, and replaced it with Audrey's book, so she can read what she wants to.

Audrey, do you think you can finish both books? If not, that's fine.

We have M, and O, to finish round 4. If Catherine can't finish one of her books, my book can work for both H and S.


message 293: by ❶İձ❶ (new)

❶İձ❶ (ttea) | 9616 comments Karla, how about if you switch my Before We Kiss from R in 2nd to O in 4th round? That way you have R free for both Audrey & Danielle

I'll do it now. Thanks!


message 295: by Karla (last edited Jul 24, 2014 02:19PM) (new)

Karla Tea, would you read an M or an O book, that way if Audrey can't finish Mind Games, we'll still have round four done. Before We Kiss can count as M or O, so you have a choice.


message 296: by ✿~ٲԾ� (new)

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5511 comments What do you need me to read. I'm halfway through Unbound, so I'll be done with it soon. Run to Me is short so both will be both tomorrow afternoon.


message 297: by Karla (new)

Karla Just in case Audrey or Alyssa can't finish their books, would you be willing to read a book that works for both M and U? or O and U?

The next time we get a word with U's I will read at least two of them! I have at least two on my TBR. I just couldn't fit them in this time.


message 298: by ✿~ٲԾ� (last edited Jul 24, 2014 02:30PM) (new)

✿~ٲԾ✿ (dmh1) | 5511 comments Yep, Until Lilly works for U and M with character of Cash Mayson.

❶İձ❶ (ttea) | 9616 comments I'll go with Deeper Than the Dead - it has H, O, M

And you can put my U book in 3rd as done - I'm updating my post
