My husband and I had a great time brainstorming this set of tasks, thinking of all the games we've loved to play.

[Dee]

i have this game, but it hasn't been played in years - between it and Trivial Pursuit (never play with my mom, I think she cheats!)

yes.

[Melanie]

Can I get approval for Frankie's Letter - there aren't many reviews to provide the genre tag. However, it does indicate in the main description that it is a spy thriller set in WWI.

Sorry, no - the task requires that the genre appear on the main page. I don't assign the genres!

[Melanie]

Ok thanks. Would Sweet Tooth work?

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

Melanie wrote: "Ok thanks. Would Sweet Tooth work?"

yes, it has spy thriller as a main page genre.

Wolfsangel - war - since only 2 ppl have it shelved that way

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

Dee wrote: "Wolfsangel - war - since only 2 ppl have it shelved that way"

I'm guessing you'll be fine on this, because most of the other shelvings are not shelves that convert into genres. But, no need to worry now - you've got it locked in!

[Dee]

i'm like paranoid though, after losing a book that 500+ ppl had shelved as sci-fi and not locking it in because I figured it was safe...lol

[Saskya]

Can I get Catch-22 approved ?

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

Saskya wrote: "Can I get Catch-22 approved ?"

yes. In future, please include a link when you have a question about a specific book in any of the help threads - makes it much easier to check the book, than having to do a new search for it.

[Dee]

probably no, but would you accept history>world war II for Blackout - can't hurt to ask right?

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

Dee wrote: "probably no, but would you accept history>world war II for Blackout - can't hurt to ask right?"

Doesn't hurt to ask but I'm afraid the answer is no.
It's really a good book, though, so I hope you find somewhere to put it.

[Dee]

I had it claimed as a 20 pointer but was doing some juggling - figured it was worth a try since war was ended fed in World War II ;)

[Ann A]

Can I get this approved for "thriller"? The genre is there right now, but I'm afraid it might disappear. Thx!
