Tisha (theyaqueen) | 110 comments Um, I have some doubts... say you read a book completing a prompt, and I read a book for the same prompt, will both be counted or just the first? Also, if we read a book that doesn't fulfill any prompt, do we count its page points or not? Sorry, I'm just doing this for the first time, so.. 😁


Amanda Artist Cat (amandawholovesbooks) No worries :D
You can read lots of books about the same prompt, and I think it has to fit the prompts to count :)
