I hope that worked. Apparently, I forgot to set up my challenge shelf. ;)"

No worries. I forgot too. LOL

Hi Kate. Welcome!

Can you post you shelf so I can add it to the list, thanks. No worries if your not big on shifters. I'm sure we'll have some that will read for it including me ☺

Hi everybody

We have alittle over 5hrs before we start reading for our wheel. I'm waiting for the mods add a Book Read thread for us so we can post our Completed books in which will make it easier for me to add them to the spreadsheet.

We're still missing some of our teammates to pop in so I'll send them PMs since were will be beginning soon.

Our first word is: UMBER
Top shelf: Shifter

So if you have any books that works and want to list some here, go for it ☺ It would give us an idea of what is needed and who will want to work for what.

I've added some information with links so its easier to find. Please make sure that whatever book/s you read are added to your shelf so it will count and also it would make it easier for me when I check everyones shelves for updates.

Hi ladies. Welcome! So excited to start. I believe we have less than a day before we start. Yikes I need to get things up and posted.

Done. Thanks 😀

Thanks :-)

Hi Mods, when I put in the May Bonus task, it's not populating any points for me. Not sure if there's something wrong in the formula, please help.
