Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 22764 comments Are we allowed to use other language editions for 9. Blue Eight - Read books which start with the letters 'C', 'T', or 'V'.?


message 510: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 91082 comments Mod
Yes, you can use other editions as long as they contain only english letters ☺

Kelli (kk00) | 712 comments Hey Sarah - I’ve been out for awhile... life 🙄 - but really need to get my butt back into my books! Any chance of me jumping in to a fun group for April yet...? If by chance you end up having any open space on a medium I’d be interested but fun is totally good too!! 😁

I'll just discuss it with Abbie, because you can see what might be a bed, but you can't really see all of it.

No wildcards were needed for you lol!
Our team will get one eventually and be going the same!

Haha I was thinking how unfair it was that Madrid (I think) has like 4 of them going currently and we haven't had any.

I know it's random but we need better luck :p

Jamie | 12275 comments We haven't had any either :)

Seville is the one getting all the luck!

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments Hey Sarah, I haven't been in challenges for a while so figured I would ask - can visual novels still count and as 1/3 points?


message 533: by Sarah Elizabeth (new)

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 91082 comments Mod
We hadn't really intended to count graphic novels to be honest, but I suppose we could allow them. You'd need to use books which have a minimum of 300 pages though (or find a couple that would count for the same description and add their page counts together to get to 300+), and yes, you'd only get 1 point per 300 pages ☺


message 534: by Amanda Setasha (new)

Amanda Setasha (azenakira) | 1043 comments Got it, thank you. Wasn't planning on submitting any, but just wanted to know if they'd count or not :)

Hi guys, got to nip out for a bit, so I'll do scores a bit later. If anyone has any problems or anything just message me and I'll sort it out when I get back ☺


message 539: by ✨Skye✨ (new)

✨Skye✨ | 3107 comments Unrelated to this topic but is anyone else having a similar problem where it's coming up that you've read a book twice when you've only read it once? I can't figure out if I'm doing something wrong so I thought I'd ask if anyone has any ideas what's going on xD


message 540: by Karen (new)

Karen Barber | 13345 comments I get that issue with the NetGalley update as some of the editions are different.

I noticed that on some people's reviews. Like for a book that literally came out a day before the person's review was put up but said they read it twice already. Like how? Lol.

Yes! I've had this issue! And it's not just with books from NetGalley. I keep having to try a bunch of times to change it.


message 543: by Dr. Andy (new)

Dr. Andy | 14480 comments I think it's an issue with Goodreads because that happened to me. I went back through my reviews and deleted dates if it said I read it twice

Go to your review and see if it has a blank reads dates. I get that sometimes. I think some people (like myself) sometimes press add a read date instead of save. :)


message 545: by Alaina (new)

Alaina (ameserole) Yeah you just have to delete the second dates even if they are blank

I've had the same issue as well...

Most of the reviews I've read this week have said 'read twice', so I'd guess it's goodreads.
