Hey, LynnB, 'European literature' isn't showing on the first page of Top Shelves? Was it on page 1 when you first planned to read this? It's showing to be the 4th one on the 2nd page or something like that. It could've been moved down in the last couple of weeks -I'm guessing this book is one of the ones you've planned to read really early on?

It was on the first page when I rolled for it. Do I need to read something else now that it's slipped? It might be a good idea not to read anything in the last half of that last column!
(Ack! I just checked and it's 7th now on the second page!!)

That's fine, LynnB, I trust you!
However, next time, if the shelf is showing near the end of the third column and you think it might slip -please let me know first (as soon as you include it in your reading plan) so if this happens again, I've already seen it. Thanks!
