Lost in a Good Book Maze Showing 1,601-1,650 of 1,651

[Sophie, The other one]

All the ones on the top of my mental list start with M (Medicus, Mistress of the Art of Death). Will keep thinking.

[Claire]

I didn't even know medical mysteries was a thing, haha
I've read two not too long ago which I think could qualify

and

[Sammy]

Dangit! I have a copy of Mistress of the Art of Death in my bookcase too!

Adding both of Claire's recs to my audible wishlist. There's GOT to be another sale soon, maybe I'll get lucky 😆

[Marla]

Looking at this list: Medical Mystery Books

Postmortem by Patricia Cornwell is on this list
The Surgeon by Tess Gerritsen ~ I love the TV duo of Rizzoli & Isles, and this book was great, though Isles wasn't in it
Outbreak by Robin Cook ~ I used to read Robin Cook back in the day

[Sammy]

Thanks Marla!

I'm not skipping but I got a task that's picking a book from the 2002 amazon bestsellers list... why do the childrens' books seem like the only books from this list I would want to read lmao

There's a Mac OS X manual maybe I should read that :p

[Sammy]

I find the Amazon lists are pretty awful generally. 😆

[Marla]

I find that I've already read all the books that I want to from old Amazon lists. So I have to pick something that I don't really care to read.

How do u leave groups?

[Franziska]

Would The Maze Runner count for title A-M or do the/a/an all have the be included?

[Sammy]

you can use or ignore articles as you please, so yes, it would fit.

Just remember when you fill in the title box to leave off the "the", or add it to the end (like: Maze Runner, the), otherwise the program will insist you're using a T title.

[Sammy]

Paitin, I think you can do so from the group home page?

[Sammy]

Paityn, sorry.

You all must read heavy books, I think everything I read is under 1 lb. Now, over 1 lb, I would have to skip.

[Kristie]

A, An, The do not need to be included. The Maze Runner works for title A-M.

If you haven't found it yet, on the group's home page below the introduction it says,"You are a member. Edit Membership | Group info." Click on "Edit Membership." You can leave a group from there.

lol!

Just FYI for anyone who gets this task. If you go to Amazon and scroll down to "Product Information" it lists the item weight. You just need to make sure you have paperback or hardcover selected. I do think under 1 pound would be pretty difficult. I looked at a couple books out of curiosity and both were over 2 pounds.

[Judy]

when I got the task I checked a couple of books I was already reading - one of them didn't even have a hardcover edition, the other one the weight on Amazon was just unrealistically high and definitely inaccurate. so I ended up being "eh it's not worth it" and reading a bunch of short things I actually want to read 🤷‍♀️

(additonal problem: I even went on Amazon US and turns out if you're not in the country it apparently changes the weights to grams and kilograms... at least that's what happened to me. and I refuse to find out how much exactly 1lb is)

[Claire]

I don't know if the question has been asked before, but I run in the following prompt:
Read a book that is ranked 101-200 in bestsellers on book depository (http://www.bookdepository.com/bestsel...)

However, as book depository doesn't exist anymore, the link is redirecting me elsewhere... On Amazon. So what should I do?
I could look into Amazon best-sellers, but they don't list beyond number 100.

[Sammy]

I think Sophie just said to use it as a "free" book and read any book that fits your direction, if I'm recalling correctly.

[Charlotte]

Small question:

Can I use a different book that I've read for the direction than the one that fits the task?

[Sammy]

Charlotte wrote: "Small question:

The idea is that your book is meant to fit both. The exception is for the Book Depository tasks, which are no longer possible.

If you're struggling with a task, you can read to skip it. (details for that are at the bottom of post 1 of this tread)

Yeah, I thought so, just wanted to check.
Thanks for the help though!

This is the task I just got...

What does that mean? Does it need to be rated 1 star?

Go to your "to read" shelf, sort by rating, read the book with the lowest average rating :) (good luck 😬)
