Originally it was placed as a #24 so we could build a higher wall, but I figured maybe the cap/co-cap worried I wasn't getting it done. I'm OK that it was moved but just wasn't sure if it had been moved elsewhere. I'm okay with moving it to replace it for The Clinic. I'll do that now. Thanks for the idea. :) I think I'm going to move 2 other books not being used for the mini-to round 3. But I'll wait just in case.

UPDATE: I moved it but the date on the Shelter tab went through with a funky number instead of the date. lol

I added my book I read for the WALLS The 24th Hour, but I don't see it on the Shelter tab.

Just finished and posted a 457 pg. book.

Thank you so much, Melindam. It's actually a long recovery process. She will need to have an ankle replacement after she reaches a certain age. I think 50+ and right now she's 46. She's been through so much after having her ankle crushed in a car accident YEARS ago! It was the other person's fault and she got some $$ for it but certainly not near enough. I'm not even sure it was enough to cover her out-of-pocket cost over the years.

LOL Sounds like my kind of vacation!

That sounds like a good one and I'm pretty sure there's likely very few people who've never heard of Mt. Saint Helens! I'm going to look into it and tell my daughter about it. The one who had surgery on her foot/ankle last Monday LOVES nonfiction. It's her favorite genre!

Thank you, Melindam and Sophie! I’m sorry to be a PITA. I should keep track of the books I add because I know some about spreadsheets but not nearly enough. I hate to keep asking questions but you guys are so gracious to me. Thank you!

Stephanie, I thought I had posted my book The Expectant Detectives but I don't find it unless it's hidden. So I added it on the last line just in case. Am I losing it? (Never mind. I already know the answer to that!) Just let me know, please.

And we have to have our books for the minis by the 15th, right? Round 2 only has 4 days 11 hours left, so if we have more books than we can finish within those 4 days for the mini, can we move those to round 3?

Suzanne, we definitely have a fantastic team!

Can we use a #24 or is that too high?

Oh, YAY!! Thank you!

Can we use a #24 in a series? If so, where should I put it? The 24th Hour

Also, I may have messed up. I put You Can Hide for one of the mini but already started it prior to today. I think we have to wait until July 1 to START reading for the mini tasks, correct? If so, I'll add another book in its place.

I can definitely add a series book or 2. What #(s) do we still need?

Not a pita! All set :)"

Thanks, Teddie :)

I'm still adding books for the mini but this one didn't transfer either: The Paradise Problem

Sorry to be a PITA!

OK, thanks. :)

Teddie, when I put in a few books for the mini on the Round 2 tab, the last book I entered didn't show the alternative categories. Not sure why, but it was for North Woods

And when I put in Don't Fear the Reaper for 2 in series it didn't transfer over. Maybe because I had one book there but moved it to another spot and added this one? I added the info on the Shelter tab since it didn't transfer over, so I hope that didn't mess with anything!

Now why didn't I think of that? As we teachers always said, "I'm going to steal that idea from you." Not sure why we never said "borrow." lol

Not sure what I am missing here, but you said not to enter books on the shelter tab, but quite a few people already have. So if I plan to read, for example, a historical fiction book, I don't put it there? I'm confused...once again! lol

*NOTE:Oh jeez, lol never mind. I figured it out!
