Game - Random Read Shelf

[Ági]

Hello, I thought we could play a fun game here. I hope that's actually a new one in this group. :)

Go to your Read shelf, select Random at the bottom of the page (sort section) and write down the first 20 books.

The member below should write the number of the books they've read from the list of the member above them. And the member below should do their own random list too.

Of course, it is enough to write it like this: I've read books number 7 and 20 from the list of the member above me.

I start the game with my 20 random books.
