Sorry I missed that.
Readerboard name JAIR30.2 - Jonquil’s task: Takin’ It to the Streets
Two book task.
1. Read a book set in a place that you consider 'magical'; state why in post.
Book1 -- Dreamland Social Club by Tara Altebrando -- GRA -- (Magical place: Coney Island)
I have fond memories of clinging to by father's back as he dodged the 'enormous' waves at Coney Island beach. To a small child it was thrillingly adventurous, and I marveled that we ever managed to survive each time. It wasn't until young adulthood that I learned that my beloved dad had only been crawling around on his knees (as I held on for dear life)... in the shallows... because he couldn't actually swim!
2. Read a book where a group of people are celebrating in the streets; name the celebration in post.
Book2 -- Fat Tuesday by Sandra Brown -- GRA -- (Celebration: Mardi Gras)
--------------------------------------------------------
30.4 - Dlmrose’s Task: Title Time
Book1: Two-Word minimum in title.
The Stranger by Harlan Coben
Book2: Complete title of Book1 is found in Book2.
The Stranger I Married by Sylvia Day -- GRA

Task 15.6 requires " the clock hands or the time must be visible"
I don't see the clock hands or time, please point it out if I am missing it.
Mod
Task 25.3 book 1 requires "Titles must contain at least two words" X: A Novel has a one word title and the genre Sequential Art. Books whose main page lists any of these genres: Sequential Art, Comics, Comic Book, or Manga may only be used for 5, 10, and 15 point tasks unless specifically allowed in the task description for a higher point task.
Mod
Task 10.6 requires " Specify the list" Please repost this task with the required information
Mod
Task 25.13 option 2 requires "The full circle of the moon must be visible"
The brick wall obscures the full circle of the moon
Mod
For task 20.9, you claimed a BB ticket for The Name of the Wind, stating that it has 722 pages. The edition you linked to has 662 pages.
In this case it doesn't matter, since either length will get you 1 BB ticket. However, you should be careful which edition you link to, since in many cases it could make a difference.
No need to repost - this is just for your information.

Dlmrose- It was really thoughtful of you to consider whether flipping the books would make this combo work. Thank you! I'll repost once I find an alternative.
Mod
If you are claiming a GRA ticket, you need to include the author name in the post. A tally at the bottom of the post is not sufficient.

That's how I have it, please let me know if you meant something else
