If you would like me to post your final bingo card, let me know in the comments below.

Am I missing any reviews?

    I loved BINGO! It accomplished a couple of things:
    1) Made me diversify my reading beyond what I happened to have in my to be read pile
    2) Got me back to the library
    3) Motivated me to get those books read and reviewed.

    I guess my only suggestions for improvement were that there were a few categories that didn’t provide that much flexibility, mainly Alabama Pink and So Popular.

    Thanks for a great time!

      Thanks for playing! I think categories like Alabama Pink and So Popular made more sense in a tenth anniversary year than they would in other years. They certainly sounded better in theory than practice.

        Agreed. The Anniversary themed squares were really tough because they were so limited but I loved some of the other squares for helping me branch out (The Hating Game and Pride and Prejudice to name a few)
        Pop Sugar always has great reading challenge suggestions to consider for next year:

    I love how much more traffic there’s here in the months when traditionally there usually aren’t that many people posting (as the panic to reach goals doesn’t tend to kick in until late November, early December). It’s been so much fun to see which books people picked for the various squares.

    While AlabamaPink is to thank for us all being here and reviewing books, I must admit I despaired at two out of 25 squares (because of the Book Club one) being from her limited selection of books. Those two squares were definitely among the most challenging to fill.

    Thank you so much, Rochelle, for all your work tallying and organising!

    I’m so thrilled with the way Bingo turned out for our first time. Everyone was so enthusiastic and so careful about their squares. We will definitely be seeking input on next year’s game, and yes, we will be having one.

    Thank you Rochelle, for keeping track of these 38 crazy Cannonballers. You have made this a great, fun success – a new CBR tradition!
