My team will get its last (?) task Sunday night. Will it then just be a race to the end with any teams on the same task reading for the win, or will you give another task on the Monday ( which wouldn't have been my teams day to get one.). If I understand it correctly, this round ends on Tuesday 9th at midnight.(?)
Hi Kat! For 21. Read a book recommended to you by a teammate - no pass for this task, can the book we choose be a re-read for us as long as a teammate recommended it?

With the challenge ending on Tuesday, June 9th, there will a minor change to the last task. Beginning on Sunday, June 7th, when teams post their completions and get a new task, they will all get the same task. For this task, instead of just completing it - you will be earning points for every completed book. In the event that two or more teams are tied based on the number of tasks completed, the team with the most points will win The Amazing Race Team Challenge!

So, is the read-off for just those teams who are have the highest numbers of tasks completed, or do all teams compete for the 'most points' regardless of how many tasks they have read to date?
If it is the first, can a team who is behind by one task, also complete one more task and then read-off for the final task?

The number of tasks is the first deciding factor, after that points. But that can go help determine 5 or 6th place as well, not just the overall winner. Beginning Sunday, every team that completes a task will be given the last task to earn points, I am not sure if a team can make up a task between now and then - it will depend on how the leading teams do I suspect. As long as they maintain the same pace of getting a new task every other day, I can't foresee any changes there.
