Now this one would be a Badge 3 read, because you already have a book read for Card 28.
It's a bit confusing. Badge 2 is like badge 1. You can only have one task per card. If you do a 2nd task in a card, it will get applied to Badge 3.
I am so glad your keeping track,, I would be so messed up!!!!Thank you!!!!
