It is almost August! What does that mean? That means it is time to start organizing for the third annual Halloween Bingo game on Booklikes!

Over the next couple of weeks OB and I will be unveiling this year's categories! There will also be a sign up thread for everyone to request their cards! We will be using the same format as last year, with 31 categories, and bingo calls every other day.

Are you excited? Because I know I am!

Yes! Sign me up!

I'm so glad you're going with the same format as last year (even though I didn't get a bingo until the very effing end!). I thought it worked terrifically well and provided fun and suspense and a wide variety of options.

And yes, I'm already choosing books!

Linda, the calls conspired against you last year! But that means that you HAVE to get an early bingo this year, right?

I am so psyched for this!

I have absolutely no faith that it will work out that way, but I'm going to play anyway.

The suspense makes it more fun, anyway! Plus, you won some sort of acclaim for the most squares blacked out without a bingo!

oooh! Oooh! Where do I sign? Hoping this time it won't take me as long to get a bingo.

I like playing even though I didn't manage to finish last year. Mind if I join in even if I'm not sure I'll be abel to keep up?

Of course! It's a game, not a homework assignment!

Which is good, because I will have so, so many homework assignments!

Yes! Count me in.

I'm having Early Riser (latest Jasper Fforde novel) shipped from the UK this week. It's going to be very hard not to dive straight in, but I'm hoping I can find a suitable square for it.
