Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is THIRTEEN! Our official #DoubleSpin number is TWO!! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone‘s lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card. I am NOT tagging anyone on that post!! If you want to bingo, please just check my profile for the card. This saves me having to double tag ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) everyone/keep track of who wants to bingo and who doesn‘t!!

I use the same tag list for the entire year, so if you would like to be added or removed, please just let me know. It takes me a while to tag everyone (there are over 200 of you!!!) so I will add “FINISHED” to the last tag batch so you know whether or not I missed you. If I did, it was completely inadvertent. Sometimes I just spell someone‘s username wrong. ⬇
11mo

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) As always, the link to the masterpost about how this challenge works can be found on my profile or here - https://thearomaofbooks.wordpress.com/bookspin-bookspinbingo-litsy-challenge/ - and the link to the Google Form where you can track your reads for the end-of-the-year-giveaway can be found here - https://forms.gle/4kTBMWAsCa9Cvmqs6

Thanks for playing, everyone!! Please know that I read EVERY comment on this post but don't always ⬇
11mo

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) have time to reply to them all!! Thank you all so much for your enthusiasm and for making this challenge SO much fun!!

I'm going to post the Bingo board, and then come back and start the tag list on this post. Happy reading!!!

Taking a Spin | Emily Arrow

Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is SEVENTEEN!! Our official #DoubleSpin number is TWENTY!! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone's lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card!!

My tagging/tracking system has changed this year, so if you didn't get tagged PLEASE let me know so I can add you to the (semi) permanent⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) tag list! It takes me a while to post all the tags because I have to do it in multiple comments and then my computer gets very thoughtful 😂 I will post “FINISHED“ when I post the last batch of tags so you can tell if you have been missed!!! ⬇ 2y

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) Below are a few housekeeping items that I would really appreciate if you took a few moments to read. As always, my new masterpost about both #BookSpin & #BookSpinBingo can be found on my blog - https://thearomaofbooks.wordpress.com/bookspin-bookspinbingo-litsy-challenge - & this link is always available in my profile as well. ⬇ 2y

TheAromaofBooks 1. Remember, this is a no-pressure challenge!! You can read one or both of these books. You can bail on them. You can bail on the whole challenge and try again next month. Whatever works!! This is supposed to be fun not stressful!! ⬇ 2y

See All 52 Comments

TheAromaofBooks 2. I do have a giveaway at the end of the year. Every BookSpin or DoubleSpin book completed counts as an entry!! In the past, I have tracked these myself, but for 2022 YOU are in charge of tracking your own entries!! To help with this process, I have created a Google Form that can be found here - https://forms.gle/X57ePKzuHpsqLjE5A - You can use this Form two different ways: You can update it throughout the year OR you can wait and fill in ⬇ 2y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) all the information at the end of the year. If you want to be entered in the giveaway you MUST use this form. However, if you do NOT want to be entered in the giveaway but still want to use the form for organizational purposes, I have set it up so that the personal info/address blank is OPTIONAL - so you can use the form without submitting your name/address. If you do not care about the giveaway you do NOT have to use this form at all ⬇ 2y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) There is more information about how the form works when you click on the link and go to the form because I LOVE overexplaining things!!! You are also ALWAYS welcome to ask me questions!!

4. Even though I don't HAVE to see your reviews I love reading them!! So please feel free to tag me in any and all BookSpin reivews!!

5. For the giveaway, DNFs do count!! The goal for #BookSpin is to get a book off your TBR, so if you decide not to ⬇
2y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) finish it, it's still off the TBR and still counts as a completion in my book!!

6. If you do not finish your #BookSpin/#DoubleSpin book this month it is STILL ELIGIBLE for a giveaway entry as long as you complete it sometime in 2022!! There is space in the form for you both to put down what book you are SUPPOSED to read & then to check off which books you DID read! ⬇
2y

TheAromaofBooks 7. Everyone is welcome to join this challenge!! If you wanted tagged & I missed you, it was completely inadvertent!! Please just let me know that you want to be added to the tag list. You can also let me know if you want to be removed - no hard feelings!! Feel free to jump in & out of this challenge as needed. Also, obviously, getting tagged doesn't mean you HAVE to actually participate!!

⬇
2y

TheAromaofBooks 8 & final (FINALLY) - While I don't have time to reply to all of the comments to this post, I do read every one and love seeing which books got picked for you!! I do respond to any direct questions or confusion, so please feel free to ask away if something doesn't make sense or you need some clarifications. Thank you all so much for your enthusiasm, and happy reading!!!

TheAromaofBooks @thereadingpal - Absolutely!! I'll add you to the tag list!! And you're also welcome to play this month, too, if you want - all you need is a list of 20 books, or count off books on your shelf, or whatever works!! Just let me know if you have any questions - either way, I have you on the list for July!! 3y

thereadingpal @TheAromaofBooks i think I'll join this month as well actually. I made a list of books I want to read the other day (longer than 20 books but eh) and the books that came out with those numbers are pretty short. I'm gonna make a post about it 3y

TheAromaofBooks @thereadingpal - Perfect!! Feel free to tag me whenever you make a BookSpin-related post!! I also have an end-of-the-year giveaway and all BookSpin & DoubleSpin completions count as entries!! There is a Google Form where you can track your entries if you're interested, which is linked in one of the first comments on this post. 😊 3y

thereadingpal @TheAromaofBooks idk if i can enter the giveaway because I'm Italian, but I'll participate in the fun! 3y

TheAromaofBooks @thereadingpal - As long as The Book Depository will ship to your country, then you're eligible!! I just have the winners send me a shortlist of books they wish they owned, and pick one of them and have it shipped to them directly so that way the giveaway can be international as well!! 3y

thereadingpal @TheAromaofBooks Oh perfect, then! thank you :D 3y

melzen Perfect! So exited :) 3y

tokorowilliamwallace I mostly listed out one pick from each of the recent hauls I've made recently (which is a lot) so I can get relatively caught-up in what I buy/acquire and reading moods I should get to already and focus on. Lots of quotes from the book I started yesterday coming. 3y

VeganCleopatra I just realized I didn't post my list when I thought I had! Is it ok if I still just take the numbers from the list I made or do you want a late list posted? 🤦‍♀️ 3y

TheAromaofBooks @VeganCleopatra - It's never too late to BookSpin!!! You are definitely welcome to use these numbers. You can post your list if you want to or not if you don't feel like it - no worries!!! 3y

VeganCleopatra Thanks! I can't believe I forgot to post it. I'll post now just for continuance. 3y

Taking a Spin | Emily Arrow

Hey friends!! So sorry to keep tagging everyone this week - I THINK this will be my last #BookSpin post until the 2nd! LOL This is your official reminder that, believe it or not, it's ALMOST DECEMBER. D E C E M B E R !!!!!! I'm not ready for 2021 to already be over, but here we are!!!

If you want to play for December, it's time to start thinking about your lists!! As a reminder, for those of you also participating in #WinterGames, any books ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) read for #BookSpin/#BookSpinBingo count as readathon points!!

Below is just an outline of the basic challenge/reminder of the “rules“ (hint: they're SUPER FLEXIBLE), etc. As always, please just ask me if you have any questions. Please remember that I create a NEW TAG LIST EVERY MONTH so if you want to join for December, even if you aren't making a new list, please either comment below or tag me when you post your list so you will ⬇ 3y

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) get tagged on the 2nd!!

Also, the 2021 Giveaway is coming up, so see my post earlier this week for the rules!! Most of you already have a few entries, because you're AWESOME at reading #BookSpin books!!!

Below: Basics/Housekeeping/Rambling ⬇
3y

TheAromaofBooks 1. The rules for #BookSpin & #BookSpinBingo can be found at my masterpost that I created here - https://www.litsy.com/web/post/1989556 - but the basics are that if you want to play, make a list of 20 books you've been meaning to read & tag me when you post it!!
2. You do NOT have to participate in the Bingo part of the challenge if that isn't your thing!! You can read just the BookSpin or just the DoubleSpin or both, or however many books work ⬇
3y

See All 98 Comments

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) for you. Basically, choose the reading level that fits your life!! And feel free to change it from month to month!!

3. A NOTE ABOUT HOW I TAG PEOPLE: I have a rotating tag list, not a permanent one. So I'm tagging all of Nov's participants today, but today I am starting a NEW tag list. This means that if you would like to be tagged for Dec, either post your list (PLEASE tag me as I sadly do not have time to go through the hashtag!!) ⬇ 3y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) OR let me know on this post that you still want tagged. I know some people don't make a new list every month, so please just let me know that you'd still like to be tagged. I know it's a little confusing, but it's my way of making sure I'm not tagging people who no longer wish to participate. Basically, you have to renew your #BookSpin subscription every month! 😂 ⬇ 3y

TheAromaofBooks 4. If you want to take a month off but be tagged with the January reminder post, that's fine, too - just let me know & I'll make it happen!!

5. When you post your list, please let me know if you also want to be tagged in the #BookSpinBingo post specifically.

6. Just a reminder that the rules here are pretty loose. If you have a huge/challenging book, feel free to let it take up more than one square (I gave Moby-Dick five slots last year!) ⬇
3y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) Some people struggle with having a super specific list & prefer to go with categories (i.e. library book, NetGalley, mystery, etc), which is also fine!! I have a participant who wants to makes sure she reads one physical book & one audiobook, so she makes a list of each & reads the #BookSpin number from the first list & #DoubleSpin from the second. Make this challenge work for you!! ⬇ 3y

TheAromaofBooks 7. There is still plenty of time to get some books checked off your November lists, too!! And remember, if you didn‘t finish your “official” BS/DS books this month, you are welcome to finish them at a later date & still get credits for the giveaway – when you review the book, just let me know that it‘s from an earlier month. Remember, the deadline for 2021 is January 3, 2022!! ⬇ 3y

TheAromaofBooks 8. If you read your book(s) but just haven‘t gotten around to the reviews, you can still get credit – just comment on this post & let me know. I know the reviewing aspect is where some people get hung up, but I care more about the fact that you actually read it, not that you reviewed it!! ⬇ 3y

TheAromaofBooks 9 (& final, geezy). Thank you all SO MUCH for your enthusiasm & for reading my rambly posts & for taking this challenge & making it your own. I LOVE seeing all the different ways people are making this challenge work for them!! Whether you use it to check off one book a month or 25, it's always fun to see at least a tiny dent in the never-ending TBR!! You all are THE BEST & I can't wait to see your lists for December!!!

kellyann28 Thank you!! ❤ 3y

mollyrotondo @TheAromaofBooks is it too early to post a bookspin list for January? 😆 I want to get back into this challenge in the new year and I‘m pumped to make a list 🤣 3y

TheAromaofBooks @mollyrotondo - haha if you have your list already and want to post it, definitely go for it!! I'm going to be tracking everything a bit differently this year, so I'll be posting a “please comment if you want to be on the 2022 tag list“ post here soon, and when I draw the numbers for January, there will be a link to a Google Form where everyone can track their own reads for the year!! All that to say... in the past posting your list was how I ⬇ 3y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) added you to the tag list, but this year you can post it whenever you want, because I'll only be adding/removing people from the tag list who specifically request it!! ...that got long-winded as usual 😂 Short answer - definitely post your list whenever you like, and still tag me when you do because I love reading them! 😆 3y

mollyrotondo @TheAromaofBooks thank you! I knew you were doing things differently in the new year but I couldn‘t remember how the list posting was going to work. This is perfect! Thank you again for everything you do! 3y
