No, you were!! Now I know I wasn’t stupid when thinking that the problem was the colours. I think we’ll just have to type in the points manually because we are at a dead end :(
Hey everybody, so sorry for checking in late but I'm here now! :)
I read a lot in The Toll today and will finish it tomorrow for sure
I'm not sure I'm doing anything right. I see that everyone is posting a ton of books (books we plan to read this month?). I have no idea what "sorted" means on the SS. And on the BINGO squares, for example, I finished a 2019 book today but I'm assuming by the looks of it that we can only use on 2019 book.

We can have more than one book for each square. The more we have the more bingos we can get. =)
OMG Vanessa, you’re right! I literally pick up my new glasses tomorrow. 😂 Thank you!
Vicki wrote: "OMG Vanessa, you’re right! I literally pick up my new glasses tomorrow. 😂 Thank you!"Haha. No worries. I thought that I was overlooking something so I went back through the spreadsheet to be sure. =P
Hey everyone. Just a heads up that my father-in-law passed away unexpectedly today. I've messaged Sarah to see if someone else can take my spot because under the circumstances I don't feel confident reading at least 8 books this month. If she can't I will stay and do the best I can but please understand I will not be very active, especially for the next couple weeks. Sorry about this. I want to do right by all of you as well.

It is completely understandable if you are unable to commit right now. God bless and give you comfort during such at this time.
Jamie wrote: "Hey everyone. Just a heads up that my father-in-law passed away unexpectedly today.

Family is always a top priority so don't worry about us. I wish you and your family all my best. -hugs-
So sorry for y’all’s loss Jamie family is definitely more important
We understand Jamie. Thanks for telling us.
Yesterday, Anna and I realised we couldn't add up the points on the spreadsheet unless we do it via colour and we have not yet found a formula. (If anyone knows how to please just update the sheet)Because of this, we will have to update points manually. I've added a column next to the books on the Data Entry to keep track of which book points have been submitted on the overview. There's no code in the point cells now (until we find one) so it should be easy for you all to insert point totals :)
Sarah said I can stay too. :) I won't be reading much but I hope to get a couple in later in the month and can still at least chat with everyone. Probably won't be on much this week though with everything.

Amelia, I’m sorry but I’m pretty new with SS & know nothing about creating formulas. :(Welcome, Gabriella! Nice to have you on our team.
That’s great, Jamie! I know we all understand and at the same time hate to lose you. I’m glad that you get to stay and participate in whatever ways that you are able and chatting is always fun!
Thanks everyone.Welcome Gabriella. Glad you can come. :)

So I read a book that was published in 2019 but there's no space for it on the BINGO board. Do I still post a review and claim 2019?And what is the reason for the Submitted column? Is that so the points will add up?

Yes, you'll still get points. The bingo is just for a bonus.

Sorry Vicki! With everything going on I just didn't get to that. Giving you a check now. :)
Yeah, you just need to say you’ve added your points to the overview table because that way it won’t get too complicated when some haven’t been added yet.

On the SS I had added NOTE whether my books had other editions but those notes have been deleted. If I'm not supposed to put notes of my own there that's find, but I see others have. I just need to know what I can/can't do.
I had to re-comment on mine too for other editions....
I'm doing okay so far this month. I posted my reviews for

, &
and updated the spreadsheet.
That’s weird because all my other notes disappeared too...
Hey y’all! Sorry it’s been a hectic week but, I quit my job and don’t start my other one until the 23rd so more time to read!
I've finished two books, but haven't had time to review yet.
Heather, good luck on your new job and lots of good reading!
We need a book published in 2013 and we'll have a line in the grid!
I have a book I can read that's 2013 so I'll read it today. Woo hoo!
I’m finishing The Toll today and starting another book! My brother gets married this weekend so if I’m absent that’s why
Congratulations 🎊🎈🍾🎉 to your brother!! Enjoy the wedding!
Hi everyone. Things are slowly calming down (sort of) so I have finally started a couple of books. Slow going since there is still lots to do, comfort to give, etc but at least reading has happened this month.
Heather wrote: "I’m finishing The Toll today and starting another book! My brother gets married this weekend so if I’m absent that’s why"Hope its a great weekend and beautiful wedding day!
Thanks y’all! I’m finishing The Toll which year do we absolutely need next?
Ok this may be a really stupid question, but how do we do buddy reads? So new to this, but I see that's points we aren't getting as much.
Basically you find someone interested in the same book as you in the wanted buddy read thread and set a date then you discuss the book and get points
