Laura Great job team, we are getting closer to finishing our hands!

For example: a book that has 273 works for this task because it has a 7 and 2 in the page count.

Why can't your book The Girl on the Train work for the mini? Did you start it before the 15th?

Ahhhhhh, okay. Thanks. I kept wondering what it meant. :)

I don't know where it would fit. I started after the 15th for sure :)

Originally I was going to put it in the award spot but I filled it with another book. It works in one of the spell out options. Spell outs are great... if a book won't fit for a task it will likely fit a spell out letter.
