161636 Saige responded. Good info for us newbies!

'You are welcome to use any book you read from April-June for any of the weeks. So if you read a book today and you don't use it until the final week of the challenge, that's ok!

The banked tab on the spreadsheet is not official - it's there for you and your team to use if you wish, but using it is not required. The only thing I look at "officially" is the review thread where you post books.

I hope that clears things up!'

161636 This week's tasks are more difficult than last week's, for me at least. I do want to try and catch up to team Shire though. They are too far ahead! 😂

That sounds like a nightmare 😩. Hope it didn't cause too much water damage. Glad you're here!

That sounds good. I've asked Paige for clarification on if we can use a previous week's books for the following week's tasks. I think it should be fine and at least that's the bonus taken care of.

161636 Hi Saige,

I just want to make sure I'm understanding the rules correctly.

If I read a book today that doesn't work for any of this weeks tasks, I can add it to the banked sheet then use it for future tasks?

What if I don't add the book to the banked sheet but just use today's book for one of next week's tasks. Is that allowed?

Pages: 217
Task#: 1. MPG Fantasy
How it fits: MPG Fantasy
161636 I didn't know I needed a Lovcraftian-esque MM but this hit the spot. Widdershins definitely took inspiration from Lovecraft but was more comical and sweet than dark and creepy.

This was my first Josh Lanyon so excited to read more from him. Especially with all his audiobooks being free with Kobo plus.
