Individual points can be found on the spreadsheet here! As is always the case with discussion/comment posts, there's a decent chance I messed up somewhere. If you think I short-changed you some points, please let me know ASAP, since the term is ending very shortly.

Now that Hogsmeade is over, here's a reminder to participate in our book discussion! It's really simple - just tell us about what you're currently reading, just finished, or plan to read next, then reply to other comments. There's AMAZING turn-out already, but more is always better! You can find the post HERE!

Also, PLEASE REMEMBER that since this is the first activity under my leadership, I wiped the roster clean, so if you have bonus items, make sure you register them HERE as soon as possible to earn your extra points. I won't be giving grace periods, so please double-check that you're good to go!

Details: Since this will be my only activity of Term XXVI, I wanted to both do something relatively simple AND take the opportunity to get to know you guy, so we're going to have a discussion post about our recent reading habits. For your initial comment, write at least 150 words talking about books you've recently read, are currently reading, and/or what you plan to read next. You can talk about any aspect of the books you wish, but some ideas would be why you selected the books, what you liked/didn't like about them, whether you'd recommend them to others, etc. For your responses, you'll need to write at least 50 words. Make sure you're saying something more than, "I read that book and liked/hated it!" Try to open a dialogue about what was good or bad, or even why you chose NOT to read it. Anything goes, as long as there's substance to it.

If you have any questions, direct them to the appropriate thread. As always, don't forget to sign each comment with your name/house or a sigtag.

Also, do remember that I wiped the roster clean, so if you have bonus items, make sure you register them HERE as soon as possible to earn your extra points. I won't be giving grace periods, so please double-check that you're good to go!
