Young Adult Reader Club discussion
January-February Challenge
Jenna, I am so excited! Thank you for once again organizing this :)
Could you clarify the "post a comment about a book you read?"
Yay, I'm excited about doing this again, I'm hoping to read more books this time too now that the holiday excitement is out of the way.
Mod
You will get a point for the challenge when you go and post in the discussions area of our group. The comments must be thoughtful and at least a few sentences.
Hopefully that makes sense.
Very cool! I like the adjustment in challenge levels! :) Looking forward to reading with you guys again!
Looks good Jenna! Thanks for organizing this over the holidays... props to you for that! I haven't had much time on the computer these past couple weeks. Can't wait to start this challenge!

I'm going to allow British Authors for you in the U.S for this challenge
Mod
I'm going to allow for you to do each bonus point option 3 times so you can get a total of 9 points from that.
The rule for reading more than 3 books in one category is the same as our last challenge,since that seemed to work out pretty well!

I had a question too.. I know we can only do the bonus categories 3 times each. If I read more children's books or re-read more than three books... do I get to add that to Any Book That Doesn't fit? Or is that in combination with the categories.. so if I read a Children's book - then I can claim it in a category and get the BONUS as well?Sorry if I'm confusing you even more.
Hello Everyone,I'm new to the group (or at least I've never posted before). I just finished reading The Forest of Hands and Teeth this afternoon. I started it in bed last night and couldn't put it down. I stayed up until 8:30 AM reading it. That brings me to 5 points for this challenge since it's one of the group reads for this month.
Happy Reading:)

Hi Melissa! I loved The Forest of Hands and Teeth! I remember reading it and getting a little creeped out at times and one time my cell rang and I nearly fell off the couch. :) I can't wait to read the second book.

I wasn't creeped out by the book but I guess that's because I love horror/sci-fi stuff. I love zombie movies:) I can't wait to read more books with zombies in them!

Kristen:
I had a question about the current challenge.. I know we can only do the bonus categories 3 times each. If I read more children's books or re-read more than three books... do I get to add that to Any Book That Doesn't fit? Or is that in combination with the categories.. so if I read a Children's book - then I can claim it in a category and get the BONUS as well?
Answer:
thanks for the great question. for this situation I will say that you can consider a re-read or children's book as part of a category and get the bonus up to three times. after that it will only by given the regular number of points for that given category. Does that sound good?
