I'm happy with anyone being team leader, but I'm not active too much on here, so it probably shouldn't be me.

Hey everyone, all books that you read must be at least 100 pages. If you have one that you have already read, that is fine it will count. But from now on, they must be at least 100 pages.

so if I've read a book before and have re-read it this month then it still counts in the challenge ? 'Cos I've been reading a series again that I've read before and was actually going to ask this

Hey guys, please only put books you have already read on you main botb shelf. If you have books that are on your shelf that you have not read, please remove them. You can create a botb to read shelf if you would like to plan ahead. Sorry for not telling you guys this in the beginning.
Yup, the name's Bleed Till You Read.
The challenge sounds like fun and I really wanna do it but my days of doom start tomorrow. (I'll start Mar 15)

Hi guys....anyone interested in doing the buddy read challenge of reading a book that the entire team have, or have not read before??
Rebecca and Jordan ur read books are not showing in the widget page. did u guys create the botb by yourself? or through the widget?
Can you guys try to delete the botb 2014 shelf and delete yourselves from the widget, then log back into the widget(the widget will create the shelf automatically, you just need to choose the name while u set your goal)

I created mine through the widget but the link doesn't work on my phone and I won't be able to get on to a computer for a while:/ if it helps I read two books this month
I've done the 8th one - the read a book by your favourite author that was published in 2013 or earlier
Fallen Crest High - Tijan which was published 2012
Fallen Crest High - Tijan which was published 2012
I could do 1, 3, 5 or 7? Not too sure about the others, but those 4 are a definite so I'm happy for everyone to do one or two of them :)
I can do any of them except number 1(I didn't get any free books in 2013)
