Also, someone was a bit to0 quick to add my last book (Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments) in the admin mini, I put it in gardening already with a bonus word. Though I just searched for the admin bonus words and it does contain quilts too, would you prefer I remove the gardening one or admin? (it was just added to the main sheet marked in admin)

Michelle, the book you put for gardening mini: "Water: WORD contains an H and 2 Os" doesn't work as it was mentioned above, the criteria needs to be met in 1 word not over the title. It's the last task to complete the current round of gardening minis, just letting you know so we don't have to start over again. 🥰

Thank you! Hope everyone celebrating Thanksgiving is having a good holiday and good weekend for everyone else 🥰

The tab for the new mini is still locked is it intentional? Sabrina & Corina (line 27 on the tracking SS) fits for R1 (tagged bookclub x15) I'll be done reading it in the next half hour. Bonus word "pants" in text. "cigarette pants and an old billowing blouse." pg 52

Oooh... if I'd known... I just added it in the next blank column beside the page count bonus column I'm sorry.

So from what I see, the feeding minis still missing are blocked by books that haven't been read.

Is it already too late for our last reads from round 3 (on tracking SS) to be added to the main sheet? I read a book tagged North Korea but there's an unread book still blocking the mini.

I'll be finishing a Nigeria tagged book this Monday

which feeding mini challenges do we still need?

It's one of my currently reading "I who Have Never Known Men"

I'll be finishing a book with an I today, I won't be able to add it to spreadsheet before late tonight tho, sorry

Yes thank you for the precision!

We don't need to finish all the tasks of a mini in order to start a new round of mini? The 2nd round of gardening is not complete but there's already a 3rd round started. I thought we couldn't "stack" our read books for future rounds of minis. Sorry I'm confused.

I don't think I added my planned readings on the SS for this round yet (I'll check either tomorrow or on Thursday) so I just wanted to let yall know I will have 1 X completed very soon in case this info could help with your planning.

I added my books and added A Psalm for the Wild-Built to my shelf sorry, it's been a busy 10 days. Icarus, one of the books I read could probably work for a couple minis in the 3 categories, is there somewhere you would want me to put where it could fit? (The tasks they could fit in are all already filled up rn)

Ill be adding 2 books on the spreadsheet today as soon as I have a few minutes

I have an L on the tracking sheet that hasn't been verified yet, finished it on the 27th (Home in the World)

Ok thank you <3

Hey! so I'm filling up the SS for my current read (not yet finished) and I'm looking at which other minis it could work (aside from the one I entered it for).
Here are the facts:
The book is a memoir.
The author is an renowned economist (specialized in poverty).


Since economics and finances are not the same but do overlap on some area I'm hesitating. Would it work for "the MC works in finance" and/or "works in taxes" and/or "needs to know how to handle a budget"? Also, is the author considered the MC or is the memoir not considered like having a MC?

Little check-in, sorry I've been reading a bit slow these past few days, I hope to finish my 2 current reads soon (one was started before this challenge began so it won't count here, my bad). Hopefully on Monday at the latest? We'll see how I feel. Work's been exhausting.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Questions here for the SS.
1. The 2 boxes on the left, do we check the shelf one to let you know it is added to our shelf or is that only reserved to captains' verifications?
2. Do we use the tracking sheet only for books we have completed or can we add the books we're planning to read?

Thank you! (Sorry if the info was already somewhere else, I might've missed it)
