I know exactly what you mean! The Sun Also Rises was that way for me. I didn't enjoy reading it, but I think about it often. It is so interesting books can have that effect on us!

Hi Cheryl!

Volunteers would keep an eye on their respective genre's thread. They would be going through and checking that everyone's math is correct and that no comments have been skipped over. Then would leave a comment like, "Total checked: 52 points" or "We missed 2 points on message 12. Correct Total: 31".

This is essentially the same thing Nell has been doing for the Relay Race, so if you want an example look at message 2182
