BINGO R7 | Discussion Thread
Has anyone reported the issue on Feedback?
It's been happening for at least a year in lots of shelves - I would think that it's happning in them all but it's only noticeable in shelves that don't have as many books.I found out about the problem when i ran a challenge that needed shelves. I even mentioned it in the Goodreads feedback but nobody paid attention.

Steph, I think it needs to be reported again. If you want me to, I will, I just need the examples.

Not certain thou..."I don't mind if it has IAD characters as long as I don't get spoilers of books 8+ (I'm reading them in audio and #7 was the last one released.)
I third that motion...SHELF!! SHELF!!!

I have noticed that on every shelf pull ... -- last round too.
@D.G. Yeah, it was me that asked the same question! I can't really remember what happened but I think it has spoilers from the later IAD books. I can't actually think which spoilers or how big but I do remember being pleased that I'd read them in order after finishing.
Just so everyone knows, Book Boyfriends shelf is only 38 pages (1,889 books).

I was dissatisfied with the list...until I found Curran on it. ;) I'm not going to re-read a KD book though. I'm actually thinking about reading the 3rd FBI/US Attorney book by Julie James. The hero crashed Twitter, was sent to prison and dubbed the "Twitter Terrorist". I chuckle. ;D
I noticed that too Heather - Marceline, lots of good choices on several of these "short shelves"... I know I found lots of books on my TBR pile.

looks like a fun read.

It says (showing 1-50 of 1,165) at the top of the page, which is why I chose it. But, when you click on page #7, it says (showing 301-319 of 319).
Thanks for doing that! Normally I wouldn't care, but with a game like it this it'd be helpful if the #s were accurate.

Good morning. GR's numbers are still off, so revised figures for this week's shelf are: 23 pages; 1,102 books.
Shelf...shelf....shelf!I need something good to read.
Soon soon...but never soon enough!
Not just shelf but freebie shelf, freebie shelf, freebie shelf!

Yeah, there is just no way the game would be over that quick. But a girl can hope right?
It would be the quickest Bingo round ever. You can cross your fingers, but just know everyone else on all the other teams are hoping otherwise. lol
Wow, your team has 4 in a row, Dawn? I was hoping for the freebie shelf to read an ARC but now not so much, LOL!
Freebie shelf! Freebie Shelf! Freebie Shelf!
G'morning, shelf is up. And I'm quite happy the game will be continuing for at least two more weeks...whew!GR's figures when you first open it up are a little off, so here are the revised figures: 111 pages; 5,544 books.
Happy hunting & reading!
I would like to put in my request for the alien shelf this week! Please Mr. R!
★Meghan★ wrote: "I would like to put in my request for the alien shelf this week! Please Mr. R!"Got a book in mind already or a winning shelf?
"Time travel" or "shifters" shelf would be good too...
I PUT IN MY REQUEST FIRST! NO SECONDS! ;) Haha Lol
Hum...well, maybe stubborn Mr. R will listen to y'all! But I have my doubts...he has a definite mind of his own!
★Meghan★ wrote: "I PUT IN MY REQUEST FIRST! NO SECONDS! ;) Haha Lol"Ooohhhhhh! Shoutie caps and all! Well I have an alien book on deck too that I can read if you get your way....
Now play nice! All I want is a shelf that has Heart of Obsidian on it and I'll be a happy girlie!
Sandra wrote: "All I want is a shelf that has Heart of Obsidian on it and I'll be a happy girlie!"I picked HoO as my free shelf pick and its very very good. Just re-read this week and it was even better. I don't think I would have been able to hold off reading it Sandra...
★Meghan★ wrote: "I PUT IN MY REQUEST FIRST! NO SECONDS! ;) Haha Lol"I'll second your request, Meghan!

Yeah, see, that's the thing. Is it a current GR issue that'll be fixed or has it always been that way and we never noticed? Who knows. Hopefully it won't affect any other shelves we've picked for this round.
