God bless, I tried reading Moby Dick years ago and had to DNF after a month of trying.

And it's 4 people need to read the detour, but all members need to read A book for additional points. At least that's how I understand it. I would appreciate this save!!!!

35559 There's a list on listopia but they all suck. I AM NOT READING MOBY DICK. I WILL NEVER FINISH IT AND THEN WE WILL LOSE. I'm going to browse a little more.

Also for the world domination one, can I opt out? We only need 4 people to read a detour to get the points. I will still read a book though so we get the other points. Will also do all other detours. SOS pleaseeee

I don't know where I'm putting my banked book yet. It fits in a couple of places. But that's a good idea to start mapping out your books!

Yup!! We're almost there!! The next task is to read a book that takes place in America or by an American author.

Based on the votes, there are some that have an overwhelming majority. I have updated the tabs, but here's the cliffnotes version:
- read a book with 41-50 chapters
- read a book where the ISBN10 number has exactly 6 even numbers
- read a book where the kindle version is less than 300 pages

For the rest, we need those other 2 votes to determine what we're doing.

I think majority rules is best. There's a couple that are 50/50, so it's important that everyone votes!

Ok, I will prob finish my I letter tonight!
