BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen I was - #rebelreader! I‘m trying to focus now so there‘s no #decemberrush for my challenges. 🤓 4y
Crazeedi @BarbaraTheBibliophage I have a question, each quarter doesn't have to be completely filled out? For example I did read all of winter prompts, but I read a couple from other seasons, and yes I marked them on my form. So you dont have to have every season completed to enter form? 4y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Crazeedi You are correct. We split the prompts into seasons but there is no requirement to actually read them in order of season. We‘re more relaxed than that! 🤓 4y

It‘s time for my fall wrap-up. I was a #rebelreader and chose books out of their season and order. So by the beginning of October, I only had two left to finish. I read the #comicorgraphicnovel prompt. Then I realized that a book I read in February worked for #soldiersstory. So, that‘s my story and I‘m sticking to it!

Thanks to my lovely co-hosts and all you participants for a great #booked2019 challenge year! 😘😘

It‘s the last few days of our second “season!” So, if you haven‘t posted a read or two, get to it! Summary posts work well too. Thanks, friends. Your hosts appreciate your communication, so we can have everybody‘s entries in our drawing. xoxo

IndoorDame If we've been posting all along do you want us to post a summary too? (I wasn't online the last few days of fall quarter so I don't remember how it worked) 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @IndoorDame If you‘ve been posting all along, that‘s perfect. For anyone who hasn‘t done that, a summary is sometimes easier for everyone. 5y

JazzFeathers I'm afraid my list is pitiful... 😶 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @JazzFeathers Naaah. Whatever you got done (or didn't), it's cool. We want this to be fun, not all judgy and frustrating. 📘 🎉 ❤ 5y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen Thanks! And yet I still feel behind because of that one winter prompt left unchecked. #perfectionist (edited) 5y
Carleneishere If I may suggest one for Social Media Focus: Red White and Royal Blue! It‘s fantastic (100% picks on Litsy!) and I‘ve pressured manynon romance reading friends into reading it and they love it too! 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Carleneishere Thanks—I‘ll keep it in mind! 5y

cathysaid ❤️ Bel Canto and found The Road To Jonestown fascinating! 6y
Carolyn11215 How do you manage to get collages posted to Litsy so that you can see all your books? No matter what I do...parts of top and bottom are always cut off! 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Carolyn11215 I look for the grids in PicCollage that are shaped in rectangles. Even then I do cut small parts off. (edited) 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @cathysaid 👊🏻 Me too! 6y
Cinfhen Well done 👍🏻 6y
alisiakae Awesome!! I also have #irishauthor left from Winter. I have Tana French picked out, but didn‘t want to start a new series until I finish The Game of Thrones books. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft Makes sense. Those books are all-consuming. I have a John Boyne picked for that prompt but now my ARC stack has gotten too tall, so I‘m working on it instead. (edited) 6y

We are days away from #Booked2019 1st quarterly drawing ❣️❣️❣️ Don‘t forget to post a wrap up of the books you‘ve read Jan- Mar 2019 using hashtag #Booked2019 & tagging us @4thhouseontheleft @BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen

We love seeing what you‘re reading & want to make sure we‘ve entered you in the drawing!

Remember: 1 book per prompt for a total of 24 entries. Who said it doesn‘t pay to read?! 🥳😜😏
1st qtr ends March 31!

Cinfhen First 3 months flew by!!! 6y
LaLecture Oooh I kinda completely forgot about my reading plans for this challenge as I was in a reading slump for quite some time. We don‘t have to check off the prompts according to the seasons, do we? So I could just see if I‘ve coincidently read anything matching any of the prompts 😅? 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LaLecture Don‘t stress. If you didn‘t check many prompts off this season, you can catch up in the rest of the year. Also you can work ahead anytime. So if something you did read (darn reading slump!) fits a later prompt, that‘s okay also. 😍😍 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen They have! And SO many people are reading all over the map, and having FUN doing it. 👊🏻📚♥️ 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @LaLecture Here‘s a really, really big list. Follow the link above for even more ideas! 6y
Cinfhen I‘m loving the graphics!!! I‘ve notice the clever use of the winter color block background 💛💛💛 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen Thanks! I‘m all about “the branding,” after spending so long in the advertising world. 🤪 6y
Cinfhen It‘s working!!!! 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Shvonne @Zelma Thanks—more great options! 6y
Victoriahoperose Thanks for sharing this! 6y
bookcollecter Can it be an author who was featured on a podcast? 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @bookcollecter Yes, especially if that‘s how you got excited about the particular book! 6y
bookcollecter @BarbaraTheBibliophage awesome I have an idea then: #MichaelPollan his neweat book looks fascinating and he did the podcast tours this past year and has piqued my interest #HowToChangeYour mind 6y
bookcollecter @BarbaraTheBibliophage oh you have read it? I really loved his book called #BotanyofDesire...did you read that one? 6y
RedxoHearts Great list thanks for sharing! I've already added a few of them to my TBR list 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @bookcollecter I have read it. Also Omnivore‘s Dilemma and In Defense of Food. Here‘s my review of the new one: http://thebibliophage.com/book-review-change-your-mind-science-psychedelics-mich... 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @RedxoHearts You‘re welcome. I love to litfuence people! 🤪 6y
bookcollecter @Thanks BarbaraTheBibliophage I will check out. Btw, My wife's college roommate is the daughter of #JohnDunning he was nice enough to autograph one of his books for us 😀 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @bookcollecter I‘m not familiar with him, but he is definitely prolific! Autographs are awesome, aren‘t they? (edited) 6y
bookcollecter @BarbaraTheBibliophage Indeed😀 and I went back altered all my posts to include the third member of the Triumvirate of Teachers @Cinfhen 6y

jpmcwisemorgan Ok I‘m going to try again. 6y
nelehelen Yesss! Thank you for hosting again! It was by far my favorite challenge this year. 😘 6y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @jpmcwisemorgan Awesome! I hope it‘s fun for you! 💕 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @nelehelen Aww. I‘m sooo glad, on both counts. 💕 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @JazzFeathers FABulous! We can‘t wait! 6y
MicrobeMom Just signed up! Going to start planning my books! 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @MicrobeMom Yaaaayyy!! I love this planning phase, even though I change my mind a lot during the year! 6y
lisakoby I‘m in! It looks like so much fun. 6y
LaLecture That sounds great! I‘m in and already thinking about which book I could read for which prompt 😋. Although I‘ll probably not stick to the plan 😅. (edited) 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @lisakoby We hope it‘s fun for everyone! Just picking prompts is great, and I love how excited everyone is to plan. 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LaLecture Yay!! I love the planning, even though I change my mind often. 👏🏻👏🏻🎉🎉 6y
Soozee @BarbaraTheBibliophage Sorry, I have a question. If a book I read fulfills more than one category -say I read a fairy tale by a new-to-me author and it has a food pic on the cover - could I use that for 3 different categories? 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Soozee Hi - thanks for asking! We ask that each prompt have its own book, since there‘s a giveaway entry involved. That keeps the entries equal between participants. 6y
kspenmoll Just signed up. Hope to do all but this past year I only finished one season, so starting with 2. Thanks! 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @kspenmoll The best thing is to try! Maybe 2019 will work out better than 2018. But every book read is a good thing—challenge or not! 6y
LaLecture I‘ve got a question about the podcast prompt: Does it have to be a book written about a podcast or by someone who does a podcast or is it also okay when it‘s mentioned in a podcast? 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LaLecture I think any of those is okay. If you get all excited about a book because the author is on all your podcasts, that makes sense to me. There are also a lot of books out that have content developed on podcasts or by podcasters. Which book are you thinking of? 6y
LaLecture @BarbaraTheBibliophage I don‘t have any ideas 😅. I don‘t usually listen to podcasts and don‘t no many. But I wanted to start looking for ideas so I thought I‘d ask about the rules first. Maybe I‘ll check out other people‘s plans :). (edited) 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LaLecture One of my co-hosts posted about this prompt recently. I tagged you in a comment, so you can find the post. There were quite a few ideas in the discussions. Hope that helps! 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @ravenlee Here‘s one of our original posts! Excited to have you. 👏🏻👏🏻📚📚♥️♥️ 6y
