This round will run from Sunday, August 27, 2023, until 11:59 p.m. (23:59) ET on Saturday, September 9, 2023. Your assignment must be completed by deadline or else you will get a strike unless you've previously notified us of your delay. The next round will be posted between 10:00 a.m. and Noon on Sunday, September 10.

Remember, 3 chapters of your partner's book and 1 chapter from the Story Spotlight for this round's assignment. Please refrain from commenting 'done' until all assigned reading is completed. Don't forget to tag your team lead with the chapter numbers you've read.

Prologues under 1K words or under five-minute reading times (per Wattpad) do not count as a chapter.

When you have completed reading your partner's story and the Spotlight Story, please TAG YOUR TEAM LEAD in this chapter next to your name below with something resembling this: @teamleadname I'm finished reading chapters _ to _ of my partner's book and chapter _ of the spotlight story. Failure to tag your team lead and list the chapters you've read will result in a strike. If you tag your team lead anywhere else besides this chapter, you will get a strike.

As always, you may find yourself on a new team.
