35559 Is it wrong that I really don't want to shelve them separately, because I don't want it to count in my Goodreads goal, and not a fan of the covers? lol

Yes, the tasks were also used in segments of WOBBLE, so I'm way more used to them. I can see why they took them out though, even as a co-captain it made spreadsheets 900% more work

35559 I keep on forgetting to do completion posts for this challenge, I'll do that tonight I promise. Without all the tasks to complete this round I keep on forgetting.

I have a question though, I just finished a collection of novellas SPECTR The Complete First Series (Spectr, #1-6) by Jordan L. Hawk .

I looked at the rules and it says shorter works can be counted as the collection, so I think it will work? I shelved it just in case

I love it. I'll finish it tonight. However, everyone has said that the sequels should be avoided, so I'm really sad and have been drawing it our way more than normal.

35559 Hi all :)

I'm Rose, a graduate student in Nashville, TN. I'm originally from Minnesota. Though, I don't sound like Fargo actors. I read pretty much any genre, but I tend to be light on horror.

I've been putting it off for far to long, and it was just picked for POFM March.
