Sorry! I didn't add it twice, just posted twice. I DID number it wrong, however, originally. I have the following as my 10 Reading Globally posts, which should still entitle me to the completion bonus:

15.1: She Loves Me, He Loves Me Not (post 80)
15.2: Heat Trap (post 457)
15.3: This Earth, My Brother (post 584)
15.4: Pedagogy of the Oppressed (post 588)
15.5: The Galaxy Game (post 696)
15.6: Last Days of Summer (post 903)
15.7: The Three-Body Problem (post 904)
15.8: Girl Least Likely to Marry (post 932)
15.9: The Mongolian Conspiracy (post 970)
15.10: The Solitaire Mystery (post 1012)

Apologies for the confusion!

36119 So I just noticed something that could be useful for this, although I haven't checked its accuracy. When I finished my most recent Kindle book, the screen popped up at the end to ask me to rate it. At the bottom of that screen is "books mentioned in this book." Might be worth paying attention to, for any Kindle users out there.
