For task 30.3, option 1, you must indicate the title of the book that is on the shelf.

" If the book is part of a series, you may read any book from that series. REQUIRED: If you read a different book in a series, include in your post the name of the book that is on the list."

All posts must include links to the books claimed.

Read 60 post 457

The Perpetual Now: A Story of Amnesia, Memory, and Love was first published in 2017, so cannot be paired with a book first published in 1916.

Jukka post 458

All posts, including reposts, must include links to all books claimed.

A repost is a whole new post of the task, which means that we need to verify the whole thing - we don't keep records of partial posts, and then just add the new info to them.

Task 20.2 requires a minimum of 200 pages. The Case Against Satan has only 140 pages, so will not work for the task.

Scottveg3 post 20.2

Just FYI - no need to repost.

PLEASE do not include the entire text of the task in your post. It makes it difficult and more time consuming to find your actual task posting. A few words to identify the content of the option you choose is great - but not the entire task!

Hi there,

My points are not the same as your calculations. Could you double check? I've only posted 35 pts. (readerboard name: Schatzie)

Thanks,
Donna

Task 20.6 - House Party includes "kids" as a MPG. Genres at review:
Fiction 4 users
Young Adult 3 users
Kids 1 user.

Please review the Rules of the Challenge for the use of books with the main page genre Childrens or Kids.

Librarianish post 509

FYI - You linked to a paperback edition, then said that the "top mmpb" had over 500 pages. You only use a different edition for page purposes if you read an ebook or audiobook - otherwise, you use the edition you actually read.


Also, please see the Posting requirements.
A BB ticket requires that you include in your post the actual number of pages of the book you read, not just "over 500".

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

Librarianish post 512

Please see previous message - the posting requirements state that you must include the number of pages in the book, to claim a BB ticket.

Diana K post 546

Task 20.4 - you used Three Months in London which only shows an ebook edition. If there is a paper edition, you can ask a librarian to associate the two. If this is only available as an ebook, you will need to include the post # or googledoc line in which it was approved for length in the Ebook verification thread.

Also, just FYI - please check your totals.

Jasmiina F post 605

Remember This When You're Sad: A book for mad, sad and glad days is an ebook, and the only paper edition listed has no page numbers. You will need to ask a librarian to add the page numbers to the paper edition or get ebook only approval for the use of this book.

unfortunately none of the online records for this has a page count associated with the hardcover (I looked on Amazon, WorldCat, Abe books)

[steph (librarianish)]

Jasmiina - Found on amazon.co.uk, added page count.

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

Kathy G post 670

Please check your totals. No need to repost.

[Kathy G.]

I made a mistake and put 5.10. It was 15.10 that I was doing.
So I think I do have 70. (I fixed it thinking you had not seen it)

Actually, that task is 5.10, not 15.10, so it's only 60 points.

[Kathy G.]

No--- you are right--- DUH--- I did do 5.10.

I have it--- 60 points.

Sorry for confusion!!!

[Diana]

Diana K.

Can I please have my points verified? I think that my points for Task 10.3 (listed in post 64o) were not included in my total. Thanks.

Sorry, Diana - found and fixed. Thanks for the heads up!

I am wondering if there was an issue with my post #528, my reader board still shows 20 points, not 25 but I can't find anything here. Thank you!

Goldie Vance Vol. 2 will not work for task 10.7, because it is numbers 5 through 8 in the series and there is no 8 (or 7) in the list of numbers.

Task 20.1, option 3, requires that you include the cover in your post and point out the yellow object.

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

The edition of Defending Jacob to which you linked has 432 pages, and thus does not qualify for a BB ticket.

[Sandy, Moderator Emeritus]

While it's okay for the rest of this season to include more than one task in a post, they must be in numerical order, lowest to highest.

Claire post 789

The only Claire on the readerboard does not have the right amount of points to match your post. Please repost with your readerboard name.

Heather KS post 797

I'm sorry, but I don't see The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I've looked under both T and P, and gone through the whole list twice, but I don't see it. Am I missing something?

[Heather]

I have no idea why I put that book on that task! I must have dreamed that I saw it on that list. Disregard that post. My grand total at this point should be 100 points. I will re-assign the book to a different task. Sorry!
