November Storm | Robert Oldshue

Friends, I hate to be the one who says this but - we are only a week away from November!!! October FLEW by! Lots of craziness out in the world, but here in Litsy we have our priorities straight (No. 1 is TBR reduction!), so it's time to sign up for the next round of #BookSpin / #BookSpinBingo !!! As always, I will be drawing on the 2nd so there is still plenty of time to knock a few more books off October's list!! Remember to tag me in your ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) reviews!!

To participate in the challenge, just post a list of 20 books you've been meaning to read & tag me when you do. For more details, please see my master post - https://www.litsy.com/web/post/1989556 - or feel free to ask questions!!

When you post your list, please indicate whether or not you would like to be tagged for #BookSpinBingo as well. There is NO obligation to participate in the bingo portion if you don't want to!! ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) No one can qualify for more than 2 entries per month for the end-of-the-year giveaway, so the only thing you gain from joining Bingo is the joy of checking more books off the list!! 😂 I know it's not something everyone has time to do, so no pressure. This is a fun challenge!!

PLEASE remember to tag me when you post your list. This allows me to add you to MY list so that you get tagged with the winning numbers on drawing day!!! ⬇

TheAromaofBooks Anyone & everyone is welcome to join – all you have to do is post a list & tag me!! If you want to take a break this month but still want to stay on the tag list for December, please let me know – I update the tag list every month to reflect that month‘s participants so that people who aren‘t interested any more don‘t keep getting tagged unnecessarily.

Feel free to let me know if you have any questions or thoughts. There is still plenty of time⬇

vlwelser 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Except I'm a little sad for October. It seems to have vanished without a trace. Thank you for organizing all of this! 4y
Sargar114 I look forward to the 2nd every month now! Thank you again for working so hard on this and putting it together. I thought October was going to be a wash but it‘s turning out better than I expected. Glad to have one more week! 4y
GardenJess It now strikes me that I am working my bingo card but know about the bookspin or double spin? What did I miss? Regardless it‘s helped my tbr immensely 4y
Coleen_Nieto @TheAromaofBooks Thank you for remembering me! Could someone direct me to instructions to Play? I can't find them. 4y
Librarybelle Hooray! Thanks for doing this again! 4y
bookandbedandtea Woohoo! I've actually started thinking about my November list so, unusually, I feel semi prepared as this month draws to an end. As always, thank you for organizing this! 4y
TheAromaofBooks @Coleen_Nieto - To play, you just need to create a list of 20 books you've been meaning to read & tag me when you post the list. On the 2nd, I draw 2 numbers (BookSpin/DoubleSpin) & throughout the month everyone tries to read those numbers from their list!! If you want to bingo, I post a bingo card on the 2nd as well w/ the numbers all shuffled & you read books that match those numbers to score!! Here is a master post w/more details &let me know ⬇ 4y
TheAromaofBooks @GardenJess - haha that's fantastic! BookSpin/DoubleSpin is the original challenge that I started - Bingo has grown from that because some people wanted to read more than 2 books from their list every month!! Originally I only drew 2 numbers & those were the ones everyone read. Reading them is still the “official“ way to score entries for the end-of-the-year giveaway. Some folks choose to only read 1 or 2 books instead of full-on bingo!! 4y
Coleen_Nieto @TheAromaofBooks thank you so much!!! Thank you also for all the work you put into this! I'm really looking forward to playing! 4y
GardenJess @TheAromaofBooks what we‘re the two numbers for October? Curious if I managed to read them. 4y
magyklyXdelish Yay!!! 4y
keys_on_fire @GardenJess -Bookspin was #9 and double bookspin was #1 4y
GardenJess @keys_on_fire figures that I haven‘t started either, lol! 4y
keys_on_fire @GardenJess Oh no! I just finished mine over the weekend. Hopefully you can knock out one or the other this week! 🤞 4y
i.besteph Oooh I can‘t wait :)) 4y
i.besteph I‘m prepping my list as I type this woohoo! 4y
BarbaraBB Yess! I am thinking about my list already even though I have to finish some more books this month to get some bingo‘s and my #bookspin! I did finish my #doublespin though and am enjoying this challenge so much ❤️ 4y
BookwormAHN I'm in 😺 4y
Deblovestoread Thanks for the reminder! Can‘t believe October is almost gone. Will pull my list together and may try for a bingo in November! Thanks Sarah for this fun TBR squashing challenge! 4y
SamAnne Thanks for organizing! 4y
Sweetkokoro I‘ll definitely be doing the bookspin and doublespin, but not the bingo for November, between holidays and birthdays the next two months are severely hectic in my life, so I know I won‘t get around to doing a bingo board! 4y
catebutler This month flew by!!! 4y
Cinfhen Craziness!!! But I‘m ready for #NovemberBookSpin 🥳Thanks for all you do xxx 4y

paper.reveries I‘m in!!! I went back and looked at your master post, so I think I understand how it works. So excited, this is my first Litsy challenge! :) I‘ll make my list of 20 this week! EDIT: I want to try out the bingo, too. :) (edited) 4y
TheAromaofBooks @daisyheadmaesie - Yay!! Just tag me when you post your list & I'll tag you with all the goodies on Nov. 2!! It kind of makes more sense as you go along. If you scroll wayyy back in my feed, you can see where I posted October's bingo card if you need an example!! Just let me know if you have any questions!! 4y
paper.reveries @TheAromaofBooks Done and done. Thanks! :) 4y
melissajayne I will get mine out as soon as possible; just a bit busy reading... 4y
melissajayne I do have a list btw. 4y
aperfectmjk I'm still working on my list, but count me in! 4y
Liz_M I am thinking about joining for Nov. But am a little confused - why are some lists 20 books and some are 25? Doesn't one need 25 for a bingo card? 4y
TheAromaofBooks @Liz_M - My original challenge was just BookSpin. Participants make a list of 20 books & I draw 2 numbers (BookSpin/DoubleSpin) & everyone tries to read those numbers from their lists. I started Bingo this summer, but many people don't want to commit to that much, so the official 2 numbers still come from the list of 20. Those who want to do Bingo can either make a list of 25 OR choose to leave 21-25 as free spaces. The bingo card does have 25 ⬇ 4y
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) spaces, but that's why there is a mix of lists of 20 & 25. Some people aren't doing bingo at all & some are planning to utilize free spaces. Others prefer to have no free spaces & so they make a list of 25. Hope this helps!!! @Liz_M 4y
ElizaMarie I can't even believe that this month is almost over! I need to finish my #DoubleSpin this month. I am about 3 hrs from finishing it so I could do it. But.. I will be posting mine soon :) Maybe tomorrow :) 4y
Argon I think I‘ll pass for November, this month turned out to be much busier than I expected and I still have to finish my BookSpin & DoubleSpin books for October! I‘ll have more time in December when classes end and I‘ll rejoin then :) 4y
TheAromaofBooks @Argon - I totally understand!! I'll keep you on December's tag list. Good luck getting caught up on life this month!!! 4y
Argon @TheAromaofBooks thank you!! 😊 4y
PaperbackPirate Well I only finished 1 book all month so I‘m going to keep my list the same. Thank you for hosting again! 4y
