Skeetor - good but you have one line the same. There are some slight differences from previous templates and you have a duplicate line - should be the following:
Total Books Read: - meaning how many different books did you sample in this time block
Total Books Completed: - meaning how many books did you complete the book itself in this time block

Finished 2 books, not sure if I'm going to start any more. I will decided a bit later.
Folks I believe I have made a successful pass through the posts again on Checkpoint Two. I will move to Checkpoint Three and take a look there.
Asia, Australia, Europe, China, Hong Kong etc should be done with this Checkpoint Two - too late to post here now.
Eastern Standard Time folks - too late to post here - you can go to Checkpoint Three right now - make sure you tidied up here and filled in all of the blanks on your template
Central Time - you should be in Checkpoint Three - make sure you tidied up here and filled in all of the blanks on your template
Mountain Time - You should be just wrapped up here and moved to post in Checkpoint Three - tidy up and complete your template
Pacific Time Zone - another 45 minutes here - then wrap up and go to Checkpoint Three
Hawaii - you should be just be beginning Checkpoint Two so this thread is the right spot for you now.

Thanks Bentley! I'll get the hang of it eventually....
Folks remember there is the mandatory check out shelf CHECKPOINT SEVEN) and you have to check out there when you are done.
I always give folks extra time to get that done on the day after the readathon start date which is today so any time today getting the tallies in is fine.
But CHECKPOINT SEVEN is the place to do the mandatory check out - so please use the CHECK OUT TEMPLATE. No matter on what thread you checked in on - you have to check out today on CHECKPOINT SEVEN USING THE CHECK OUT TEMPLATE.
