If anyone is interested, you can still get that and book 2 in the series from Netgalley for free download in exchange for a review:

Please check in to your team by Jan 31

If you PM me with your email address, Kayla, I can give you edit rights :)

The captain, unless you also have a co-captain who wants to help out, or your captain shares the spreadsheet to others in the team. It's usually a good idea to only have 1-2 people with edit rights

Edit - I just saw on your team thread you have stepped up as co-captain Kayla.. so just PM me your email address and I will give you edit rights :)

That's ok. Allison's reply is correct. It is only one book per card. The only exception is for Draw 2 where you can use one book for 2 cards (see the example tab on your spreadsheet for an example of how this may work)

Yes, provided it is finished between Feb 1 and 28, it doesn't matter when you started

Thanks Allison, yes that is true

So Alejo, up to you how you want to plan, but by the end of the month you need to make sure you have hands completed in order.
E.g. you complete hands 1,2,3,5 and part of hand 4. By the end of the month if you haven't completed hand 4, you only get points for hands 1,2,3 and part of hand 4 (and nothing for hand 5)

Yes, team members can read the same book to use for cards.
Just for any up-and-coming readers, publishers or promoters out there, remember this challenge is NOT about promoting books that are yours or that you have any affiliation with

Great, thanks Jennifer!

Basically, you can start completing them in different orders, but only completed hands in order will count for points at the end of the month.

For example, you may start filling hands 1,2,3,4 and 5 concurrently, and at the end of the month you have completed hands 1,2,3,4 and most of 5. Then all of your cards count for points. However, if you only complete hands 1,2,3 and part of 4 and all of 5 by the end of the month, then you can only get points for hands 1,2,3 and your part of hand 4 (and none of 5). Hope that makes sense :)

That's right - thanks Eldarwen! :)

Hi Karen & Snowtulip!

That's right Kayla :)
