Hi Claire, I just checked, but..."
Audrey, that is very strange, cause when I go to that shelf, I see the start and end date:-(
The only solution I see is to take everything out and start over, but then it might be better if you take it of the spreafsheet too. What do you think?

Wow. That is impressive!

Hi, just an update..no books in for me yet, but at 60 % ofHet spel der tronen. Love it, but such a long book...

I start with A Game of Thrones. Thinking also about rereading The Circle, but not sure...
happy reading everyone:-)

Can we choose what to read or do we have tasks too?

Yes, Beth, the name of the shelf is right. As for bilangual... if everyine spoke dutch, I might be sticking to that too:-) I try to read in dutch if I need speed, otherwise I try to read in the original language esp. For literature.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for letting me know, Beth, I hadn't noticed yet the group started.
