Yeah I need to find out about that as we have several book set in Alaska!
So Afghanistan counts as burning/hot world so I think by that logic, Alaska would count. Thanks Nicole!

Do we have anything for this? Because if not I can knock this one out today probably. Queen Song would this work? My version is exactly 100 pages.

Read a book where the page numbers add to 20 (i.e. 345 pages = 3+4+5 = 12)
@Tea could you take a look at Taryn's tab in the spreadsheet, one of her books is missing page count.
Venecia wrote: "@Tea could you take a look at Taryn's tab in the spreadsheet, one of her books is missing page count."I believe that one doesn't count towards the challenge. There was some issue with it. I think Tea can explain more.
Venecia wrote: "@Tea could you take a look at Taryn's tab in the spreadsheet, one of her books is missing page count."Since it's trilogy it's considered as bundle (or boxed set) and it doesn't count for this challenge. She was supposed to remove it from her shelf and tag each story separately if they have enough pages.
Since she didn't remove it, we made page override to show it as not enough pages so it wouldn't count for points.
In the meantime, Taryn PMed Eni that she's dropping out of challenge because of too busy RL.

Sorry I disappeared for awhile. Between the virus I got not going away and then Christmas I haven't been online. I still have a nagging cough, but the rest of it has finally gone away. Am I still part of this team? I wasn't sure since I haven't posted weekly, but if I am, I will add the books I have been reading to my shelf tonight.

Shame to hear that Taryn doesn't feel she's got enough time to take part.
Wow there's been a lot of goals cleared in the last few days.
