Questions/Problems in Completed Tasks
Amy N - post 3103I do not see the name of a geometric shape in the title or subtitle of Eat Right 4 Your Type: The Individualized Diet Solution to Staying Healthy, Living Longer & Achieving Your Ideal Weight. If you are thinking that the word "right" fits for "right triangle," you're going to need to ask permission in the task's help thread since the task description states no variations to the words on the list other than plurals and possessives.
CassieV - post 3105Twilight in Babylon do not appear to have print versions on Goodreads. Please see the Rules of the Challenge for information on the requirements for ebooks with no print editions and then repost this tasks (make a NEW post in the completed tasks thread) with the required information.
