The only book that is problematic is The Winter Wedding as it doesn't specify in the book blurb that it's set in December. You've read it, Viji, so y..."

Thanks, Janice, for the clarification. I was only worried if books from Short Stories and Fantasy genres could be used to fit these tasks. Now, I would post the books.

I have't for a while. I'll have to try that again. I hate doing that though because I lose all my passwords and sometimes can't log into accounts that I normally keep open.

My phone just doesn't have the delete button, so it's not that it isn't working. My laptop won't let me delete anything, but only in GR. It is really weird.

Yes, you're missing one book for Cancer, and you haven't read this task yet in your other badges.

Janice, are you able to compute any statistics about the challenge or books read, from your spreadsheet(s) where you kept track of us? Just curious? I can't figure out if there is a way to use the reporting thread to do it or not, except to total up how many of each badges you gave, based on the request. I know many people used some of the group read books for their tasks and some of the actors had the same book titles read for them, like The Boys from Brazil.

I'll post some stats in a few days. I want to let people have a chance to finalize their reporting.

Oh nice! Looking forward to seeing them.
