I have read the book in paper edition, so I know it exists in that format. If I add the paper edition I own, will it be ok, or must it be added by someone else? If it is ok, I will repost my task after adding the book
any of the librarians can add it, so can you - and then just repost with it - you may need to have a librarian combine the 2 versions together, so they are in one record

RACHEL CA - post 2012Task 20.4 is a one book task (all the 20-point tasks are 1-book tasks). Since the task does not allow books with the genre "children's," I've recorded Moll Flanders for this task. Feel free to move The Grey King to another task.

Hi - sorry I didn't catch this before now - on my post number 1127, I had read Allegiant for one of the options, and it has 526 pages. I've not been credited for my Big Book ticket for that.Thanks!
Bekka - did you specifically say big book ticket in your post? you need to say how many pages the book was when claiming the ticket
Dee wrote: "Bekka - did you specifically say big book ticket in your post? you need to say how many pages the book was when claiming the ticket"I did say it was a big book ticket and the book was over 500 pages. I didn't say the specific pages though, so that's my bad.
just do a repost- put claiming BB ticket at the top, so DLMRose sees it
Dee wrote: "just do a repost- put claiming BB ticket at the top, so DLMRose sees it"ok - thats easy! Thanks!
