Is it possible to have a genre locked out? Now that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has been out for a few days, the Childrens genre has disappeared completely from the MP. Can Childrens be verified as NOT being a MPG for this book so it can be used more widely in the challenge?

See post 1 in this thread. We will not "lock out" the childrens genre.

[Lola]

Sorry I missed that Sandy-I was so excited to see Childrens off the page that I posted the question here right away without re-reading the rule.
