Good ole Duct tape.....it fixes everything.

Actually, my bad Dee. I knew that, I should have just said I got the m-m one, lol.

Dee wrote: "I just posted a couple of completed ones in the other thread for tracking - m-m and contemporary-romance"

Got them

Sorry, Amy, I was not online yesterday. I got you now, and updated it for your completion.

That's the reason I thought it was the coding, Lyn. Something I have done several times!"

Yea, I hate the fact that I am not perfect, lol.

The iPad is not ruined and it seems to work fine. But the screen broke in a corner (full of shards) and it has several hairline fractures. I should be able to use it ..."

So sorry to hear that you fell, D.G., but glad you are all right. My husband broke the screen on his iPhone and was able to use it for 6 months before it completely gave out. Me.....I would be taking him up on his offer of a new one. :)

Susan - which widget are you talking about?

Also - I quit using my "to-read" shelf a long time ago. I actually have several exclusive shelves that I have set up, but most important, and one I am using for this challenge, is my "to read mine" shelf. I find the books by using the dice throws and picking them from that shelf. After I have picked them, though, I put them on a separate shelf that is not an exclusive shelf that only shows what I have actually read for the challenge. Then I link that shelf to my challenge widget and it keeps count for me.

Is that what you are trying to do?

Good Idea, Tien. Thanks.

My first one of the game!

Yep, sorry. I messed up the coding. It happens sometimes, lol.

not at all... they don't have to reserve shelves, it's only part of planning so ..."


No worries. I have been checking myself and so far so good. I figured it wasn't as issue, but thought that I would ask just to be sure. :)

D.G. ~Shameless Hussy~ wrote: "Tien wrote: Science -False (oops! You don't get to read this at all now!)"

And I SO wanted to read from this shelf! (LOL!)

P.S.: I do have some science books in my TBR but I need to be in a 'mood..."

But... wouldn't it be Sam who had to read from the shelf??

I know what you mean about having to be in the mood, though. :)

I have a question. There are shelves being reported here that were not reserved. Is that an issue?

And then it was a miss, so you get to knock it off with out reading from it. Sorry.

I, too, like some science books, but my youngest son is the real science geek.

Don't forget to post on the Report thread when you have finished reading. I will be checking it later today to see what has been accomplished.
