We are starting a new feature for 2016. Monthly Book Bingo! Play along with us!
Here are 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! So download your Bookish Bingo card now and get started!

The winner of most squares for May:
Rose Miligan with all the squares! Forth month in a row! Great job Rose! Keep it up!
How did everyone else do? Are the bingo squares getting too easy? Link up your posts or comment with your cards!
Alright, link up your completed Bingo cards here:
Wow, I thought I did really well with 20 squares this month, until I saw your 2 cards! Way to go!
Looks like I mistakenly put my May card on this links list, too, so just ignore that one (that would be because I didn’t have time for my May summary until June 30!).
Looking forward to next month!

Great!
Lynn – I really enjoyed the Anna & The French Kiss series. I read it out of order though and started with Lola & The Boy Next Door, my favorite of the 3 novels. =)
Hah! I read them in order. But Cricket is my fav as well, Livia!
Thanks for doing this challenge! It has been a lot of fun! I can’t wait to see what’s on the next bingo card.

I got a total of 25 squares!
Great job, Rose! I’m enjoying it, too!
Yeah, you and Rose really killed it, woohoo! Are the categories going to be different each time? This is such a fun idea! I think I’ve always loved bingo because you don’t have to use any strategy to win it.
Yes, the cards are different each month. And it’s about the number of squares. No strategy at all, Livia. Just fun!
