Great TBR for May! Which are you planning to read first?

If I can finish my April list on time Libertie, if not Arsenic and Adobo gets released on the 5th.

Do names count for the “one word title” category?

10

Also, does it count if we’ve begun a book before May, but finish it in May?

Yes, a name could be a one-word title. Example: Rebecca. That one is on my TBR. :slight_smile:

New here…when do they typically post the “bingo board” for the next month? I am likely not going to finish all the books I was hoping to for May (and unfortunately I have May 2020, not May 2021) cause the wait lists at the library on a bunch of my books were too long, despite putting them on hold May 2. :weary:

Yes. It’s typically a monthly challenge. I have yet to get myself organized to actually complete one! But, fear not, there’s more to come! :smile:
