thats fine


message 429: by Janice, Moderator (new)

Janice (jamasc) | 60019 comments It does work out fine, fortunately. :)

The rules state that if you are reading an ebook, you are to use the first paperback or hardcover book to determine page length because ebooks & kindle books are notoriously bad at page numbers.
