Hi - not sure if this is the right place to ask, but thought I'd start here.

Our team is completing the "15. Read a minimum of 600 pages in books with an audio edition." task.

The book I selected does have an audio book available on Amazon in Audible, but that edition isn't currently listed in Goodreads.

Is there a librarian in here who would be able to add this edition for me?

The link to the book I've chosen - in the audible format -is below.

Feel free to just include a link to the audible or Amazon site showing the audio edition. 😊

93. As a team, pick a Romance List from GR Listopia with less than 100 books on it

Does the series rule apply?

We chose this list:
https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

If book 2 is on the list, can I read book 1 instead?

No, the series rule doesn't apply to lists, sorry.

Hi Kat - for:

Task 15 - 50. Read 6 books set in the same location, teams decide the location.

As a team select a location and read 6 books set in the selected location. If you choose a big city it is easy enough, but you are free to use the state if within the US or the country if outside the US.


We are going with New York. Do we have to specify 'City' versus 'State' or can we mix them?

Thanks :)

And would the setting 'Staten Island, New York' work?

Thanks!

Just do New York state and you are safe. 😊

Hi Kat,

I read Pride and Prejudice for a task, and I am having trouble figuring out which page count to use. I know that it is supposed to be the first Kindle edition in English, but there are a zillion pages of editions and many of the Kindle editions say they were published before Kindle was even a thing (1995 or 1813, for example).
Help please!

Go ahead and use 327 and don't worry about what you link to - the old classics are a nightmare to figure out!

Teams 5, 6 and 3 - I will check your books in the morning since you can't get your next task until then anyway and it is WAY too late tonight!

To all the teams I assigned tasks to this evening (if you can call it that still), even though one or two of your tasks will show as being after midnight, my records show them as being assigned on the 22nd. You will be eligible for a new task on the 24th. (Not going to hold you back because I played too long today!)

Goodnight now, I'm done! 😴😴😴

[Sassafrass]

Have a great night, Kat! And boy that was late even for PST!

If the person selects a book, then you all read the book. If they select a series, then you all read a book in that series and it can be the same or different books.
