FA 2017 General Questions

There's a book I was hoping to get in, The Turtle of Oman, that BPL only has as an eAUDIO book so not shelved as YA even though it looks like it is JUV/YA from the Goodreads listing. Would that one be acceptable since it isn't explicitly listed as YA at BPL?

Yes, if that were the only edition. Unfortunately, they have this edition, which has a Lexile of 700. You can still use it for RwS tasks (not any sub-challenge), it just wouldn't be eligible for any styles.

Gosh, I don't know why that edition wouldn't come up for me when I searched the title! Okey dokey, back to the drawing board...trying to finish my RG round 2 in the next 5 days--5 books in 5 days, it's not unheard of but I'm having a struggle finding a book to fit "O" or "Q" that is shorter so I have a better chance of finishing...
Thank you for the prompt response and for finding the other editions in a timely manner!
