I'm going to leave the page count as is since that was what the page count was when I did my spins - is that alright?"

All good, LaurLa, I just wanted to check if it's definitely the right link for the book :)

Congrats on completing this round, btw, you had a pretty big goal!

Books only go on my TBR shelf once I actually have a copy in the house. Books that I want to read but haven't got a copy yet go on my "Wishlist" shelf. Next rung down is the "One Day, Maybe" shelf!

Even so, the TBR list seems to get longer, not shorter.....
