Don't entirely understand the scoring...And is there a prize for whoever wins the most points?

Do we need a better prize than the prize of knowledge and reading?) ))
As for my question, we score by the size of the book, but if we check one book for 2 reasons, do we count the points once or twice?

For everyone else, I will be soon posting the challenge and that should answer most of your questions.

Thank you for clarifying that.

No if you read more books you don't change status. They are just to keep people in the challenge who read 1 book from competing against people who read 8 books a month
you said in the general rules that "A, AN and THE must be eliminated" or something... what do you mean by that and can you explain it further for me... I don't really understand.
must the books be from american/english authors or can you read books from foreign authors as well?

You can earn extra points if your book begins with one of the letters in SPRING. If your book is, for example, 'The Girl on the Train', you must eleminate 'The' and the title becomes: 'Girl on the Train'. So now the first letter is G, which is part of SPRING. You can do this with every book that begins with A, AN and THE. :)
oooh I thought we couldn't read books with THE, A or AN in the title 😅😅 thank youu love 💛

Haha you're welcomee <3

Question, do DNFed books count toward the challenge? Obviously if I only read like 3 pages it doesn't count, but if I read say half of the book then drop it?

I have a question about the June challenge. Read a book where a main character suffers from an illness. Would things like Alzheimers or Autism be considered and illness?
Hey there!Where do we post the completion posts? :) Thank you!
I was wondering if there was going to be a challenge for August? I would love to see a Pick My Book challenge - participants are partnered and choose a book/s for their partner off a specified shelf.
