4th Quarter Challenge: Quick Reads

I am so sad! I saw Go Ask Alice on the short reads list and remembered my older sisters having that book and not being allowed to read it. I finished it at 2am and when I went to see the total pages for posting? 214 pages!! I am still glad I read it but bummed I can count it! I will be double checking those page totals !

Why does it say roseena did 0 out of 10. I been editing my first post. or am I suppose to create a new post for each book. I'm at 3

[Jaclyn]

Roseena, you need to create a new post with your updates...the moderators don't get notified when we just edit our original posts.

[Cassandra]

Roseena, you can update your original post - lots of participants it that way. You just need to also post a new one that says "Message #__ updated with a new book" or something to that effect, so that the challenge leader knows to go back and check your original post.

Does that make sense?

[Daphne]

Another one down :) Updated my original message 2.

This book actually turned out to be 233 pages, but I read it specifically for this challenge, and it's significantly shorter than most books I read, so I'm counting it anyway. ;)
