I hope this works for Book A

well, the title words work, but the edition you posted is an ebook. If you are reading the ebook, the most popular paperback is at 636 pages, so it wouldn't work.

Which word are you targeting?

The edition linked will not work for page numbers.
Just curious, do you have an ARC? It doesn't look like either the pb or ebook versions will be published before the season is over....

Peebee | 481 comments One down, one to go....

Option A:

Paper Towns by John Green
PAPER/305 pp.

so glad it works -- so bummed because I had it slotted for another task....

FOUND ANOTHER for B: (It's a reread for me but I will take it!)

What I Thought I Knew: A Memoir by Alice Eve Cohen
ALICE/208

And now an author I like whose book is not a reread!

While I'm Falling by Laura Moriarty
LAURA/305

I actually am reading it for our upcoming Book Fair. I have the galley but looks like the publish date is not til 9/9. The info on the galley says it is 352 pp. Can we not use things in galley?

The word I am targeting is pious

What is the ARC? I have a bunch of numbers listed...

ARCs are Advanced Reader Copies, similar to a book galley, I suppose. While ARCs are allowed for the SRC, not really sure if galleys are - a mod would have to chime in for that.

Even so, we have to use the info of the GR page of the book to verify that it qualifies. At 352 pages, the book does not qualify for this task.

Oops! You are right! Sorry


message 74: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 902 comments Would these work:
Book 1 Cleopatra's Daughter by Michelle Moran Cleopetra, 450 pages

Book 2 Vampires in the Lemon Grove Stories by Karen Russell
Russell, 258 pages


message 75: by Ty (new)

Ty  | 563 comments Book 1 Cleopatra's Daughter by Michelle Moran Cleopetra, 450 pages
book edition linked does not match your page numbers.


Book 2 Vampires in the Lemon Grove Stories by Karen Russell
Russell, 258 pages
you will either have to choose the paperback or hardback to get the page number qualification, both of which currently do not have the required page numerals.


message 76: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 902 comments Thanks


message 77: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 902 comments Would these be fine:
White Space (Dark Passages, #1) by Ilsa J. Bick
space, 560 pages

India Black and the Gentleman Thief (Madame of Espionage, #4) by Carol K. Carr
carol, 320 pages

white space - again, the edition you linked is the ebook. Ebooks are not eligible for tasks requiring a specific number of pages or page numerals. If you meant to link the HB, that would work. Just be careful when linking books....

India Black - does not have two of the following numerals: 0, 5, or 8.


message 79: by Midu (new)

Midu Hadi | 902 comments I'm sorry for driving you insane,Ty! Would this work for book 2: Rant by Alfie Crow

No worries. We're here to make it easier on everybody. :D

Yes - that book will work. Enjoy!
