TheAromaofBooks's blurb on Bingo

Bingo | Rita Mae Brown

Here's the bingo card! First, I put our official numbers (16 & 20) back in the mix. Then I drew them all out & wrote them down as I went, meaning the official numbers are just mixed into the card with the rest! As you can see, 21-25 are both labeled with their numbers & also as free spaces, so you can use them to match however you wrote your list. To score a bingo, just read books (in any order) that are in any row or column!!

Notes ⬇

TheAromaofBooks 1. I‘m tagging everyone who specifically said they wanted to participate in the Bingo aspect of the challenge, but ANYONE IS WELCOME. So if you posted a #BookSpin list and now you think the Bingo looks fun – just jump right in!!! ⬇ 5y

TheAromaofBooks 2. Remember – NO PRESSURE!!!! If this starts to stress you out, just take that page right out of your journal and pretend it never existed!! This challenge is to encourage you to read, not to make you feel like reading is a chore!!!

3. FREE SPACES can be filled with any book that is NOT already on your list!! ⬇ 5y

TheAromaofBooks 4 & final - As a reminder, only the “official” numbers will count towards giveaway entries. I don‘t want the giveaway to be stacked against people who aren‘t able to read lots of books each month.

I love all of your posts and your enthusiasm so much!! Keep me posted on your progress!!

Clwojick Woohoo! I‘m half way through two of them already! ♥️ 5y

bibliobard Did I misunderstand something about bingo — do we all use the same card or make our own? 5y

i.besteph Thanks @TheAromaofBooks for all your hardwork. 😍👏🏽👏🏽 (edited) 5y

TheAromaofBooks @Shakespearience - In theory, you match the books from your list to the numbers on the board. So book 4 from my list is Kids of Appetite, book 5 is The Mysterious Mr. Quin, book 22 is a free spot, 17 is Ukridge, & 14 is Mr. Popper's Penguins... so that would be my top row, but your top row would be books 4, 5, 22, 17, & 14 from your list. Everyone's cards look different, but use the same numbers, if that makes sense. 5y

Pageturner1 so 16 & 20 are the what numbers? @TheAromaofBooks (edited) 5y

TheAromaofBooks @Pageturner1 - For the original/regular #BookSpin challenge I draw 2 numbers & everyone tries to read those 2 numbers from their lists of 20 books that each person has made. A lot of people choose to just participate at that level of the challenge. The Bingo is for people who want to read more from their lists. So for August, 16 & 20 are the official BookSpin numbers & most people will try to score their bingo using one of those numbers!! 5y

Pageturner1 @TheAromaofBooks gotcha, I am on it! thanks 😊 5y

keys_on_fire Is it too late to start this for August? I was out of town at the start of the month...If so, I hope I catch it for September! (edited) 5y

TheAromaofBooks @keys_on_fire - Hello!! To participate, all you have to do is post your list of 20 books & tag me when you do. Then you can come back to this post to see what order to arrange those books in order to set up your bingo card. You can totally do it any time and jump in with August, or if you want to wait until September I can add you to the tag list. It's whatever works best for you!! 5y

TheAromaofBooks @Mimansha - here's the August bingo card!! After you make your list, you can make a bingo card by matching the numbers on your list with the numbers in the card. Just let me know if you have any questions!! Tag me with your reviews - I love to see everyone's progress!! 5y
