[Pamela]

What about books that don't have a genre listed like A Daughter's Homecoming? Is there a way to get a genre approved or show up on the page?

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

A genre is not going to show up until enough people shelve the book as that genre. And, no, we don't assign or approve genres - we go by what's on GR.

[Pamela]

Please verify To Try Men's Souls for war.

Thank you.

Could I get Marionette verified for GLBT?
Thanks

noted for genre. This appears to only exist in ebook form, so you'll need to get page length ok'd in the appropriate thread, if the book is not on the spreadsheet.

Sorry Rochella, I didn't realize when I approved the genre that you were the person who shelved it with that genre and that no one else had.

The rules of the challenge clearly state:

4. For tasks that require books within specified genres the main book page's front page genre list will be used to determine suitability. Unless explicitly limited by the task creator, reasonable variations of genres will be accepted: ex. genre- mythology: myths, myths-and-legends, mythological, etc. would be accepted genre variations. The genre must appear on the list when you access it and the player may not shelve a book as a genre in order to use the book for that task.

So, this book will not work for the genre GLBT.

Oh, okay. Didn't know that and wasn't aware I was the only one who shelved it as that! But that's okay, can always use it for another one of the challenges :)

genre is noted. I see that it's only 88 pages, so you would have to use it for your one <100 page 5 point task.

[Nancy]

That's the plan! :D

Thanks Sandy!
