Alright everyone, did you fill out your Bookish Bingo Cards? Share your cards, and link up your posts below!
Recap of the rules:
Each month we will upload a new bingo card. You download the bingo card and mark off squares as you read books each month. At the end of the month, we will post our own bingo cards. Link up your post or post your own bingo card in the comments.
The monthly winner will be the person with the most marked squares. None of that across, diagonal, up and down, corners stuff. Just the number of squares. Be sure to include the books you’ve read for each of the squares. Only books read during the current month count. You may use the same book to fill multiple squares. We’ll announce the winner the following month to allow everyone time to link up their posts.
And to encourage more people than Julie and I to participate, we are going to have a quarterly raffle!

No worries! We are leaving the posts up all month!
Great job ladies, but Lynn you are definitely the winner! I’m late posting my card but I’ll link up. 🙂
Better late than never, Brandee! And thanks!
24 books in a month sounds like a huge task, though I know people who could do it, no problem. I, however, I only managed 11 books since the beginning of the year, so I’m certainly not one of said people. Ah, well. Anyway, I love this new feature & idea! And I’m cheering you on from the sidelines!!!!

Yea while some people do it, we don’t expect anyone to read that many books. That’s why we like to pick books that check off many squares in one go. I had one book this month that checked off 10 squares.

So close to getting all of the squares. Every month it’s like I need that one last book I’m reading. But, hey, Winter almost checked off all of the categories.Good job, Lynn!

Yeah – great job, Rose! Maybe I made April TOO EASY! And I had one square left last week, so I totally understand that last book!
I’ve been playing this all wrong… I only dabbed one square per book. Could be why I did so crappy…. Anyways next month I plan on doing better now I got the rules right. LOL

Oh definitely, check off whichever squares apply. We don’t expect you to read 24 books each month haha. I mean, some people do read that fast, but still.
