35559 Thanks, Elizabeth. I got the ebook...that way if I can't read the small print I can enlarge it. LOL

I've never read this book and I taught English to freshmen and seniors in high school; however, when my daughter (who is now also an English teacher and freelance editor) was in 5th grade she was reading it. I remember going in her room around 4:00 in the morning because I woke up and saw her light on and she was awake in bed finishing it. She couldn't put it down! Now it's finally Mom's turn!

35559 I had to help my husband with some things and came back on to finish up but looks like someone else did it for me. Thank you everyone who helped!

I have loved this challenge even though it's a lot of work, especially for the captains. So thank you to the captain(s) for all the extra hard work you did!!!

35559 I think we're good because someone (I think) removed a book from line 250, so we have an extra spot I believe. I'll not mess with any of mine and move one just yet but if I need to I certainly can.

35559 OH shoot!

35559 Looking over the SS, it appears that based on some others' posts that I CAN use a book multiple times for our special words (local, quality, neighborhood). I just want to make sure I can use them as many times as I can up to the number of foods I can use (ie. 4 food = 4 words; 8 foods = 8 words) as long as I have that many locations/pages, right?

I just don't want to screw up anything and make extra work for anybody!

35559 Can we use one book more than one time for our words such as local?

35559 Tammie, I went ahead and finished the last book for this challenge. I'll work on meals tomorrow. I can't keep up 3:00 AM hours but this is my 3rd night in a row doing that so I have to get to bed by midnight tomorrow night. Or a little after. lol
Dec 11, 2020 02:21AM

35559 OK, I got that one done but I finished another book so I'll add the foods tomorrow to 275. 2:20 AM so I am off to bed. Goodnight all :)

35559 Oh no! I’ll check it and see what I did wrong this time. 😂 Thanks.

35559 Congratulations, Lucy and Alysa! Woo hoo!

35559 Thanks, Tammie. :)

35559 I find a lot of desserts and drinks, but other than coffee and tea don't the books need to be 500+ pages?
Dec 03, 2020 12:29AM

35559 Oh no! I totally forgot to post my book that I finished yesterday. :(
