I've updated through here, if I missed something let me know. I have a killer headache this evening so I'm getting off the computer now, but will try to check again before heading to bed later. Otherwise, I'll check first thing in the morning.

Thanks Jane - doing better so far today. Neck and shoulders are still really tight, but my head isn't throbbing and I'm not nauseous and I'm counting that as a win. I'm at least functional today - slow, but functional!

For that task, the award needs to be listed in the book details under literary awards. I don't know if those awards are listed there.

Yes, as long as the real animal is on the cover.

Hi Kat,

Question on what constitutes the "Kindle edition". For the book below, the first Kindle edition is the UK version...should we still use that one or move to the second one on the list? :)

I'm trying to make sure we don't have page issues like the last submission. :)

Yes, that cover works.

And the book has to be read in its entirety after the task is assigned. (That does not preclude starting the book over again, but personally I would only do that if I was only a little bit into the book - easier to just start another one.)

Wow, there are a lot of editions of that book all released on the initial publication date! What I am looking for is the earliest dated English language edition - so a UK one would work. They often aren't as obvious as that book, so I just look for the earliest one in English.

I think I got all the questions, now off to check the teams!
