Melanie, graphic novels cannot count for categories, regardless of page count. Please see the rules HERE

So the Fence books will only count for page points. Also, you haven't finished the Outdoors category because the book you posted for 'MC Goes Camping' was a graphic novel. (Solutions and other problems, comment 220)

I will hold onto the bonus book until you've finished.

Just so you know Fence Striking Distance isn't actually graphic novel. It's more like how TMI has an image every chapter or so. It is a prose book.
