I'll try for solo, thanks!

[Erin]

I have Webtoon and I've been reading on there more than published books lately; can that be counted under graphic novels if I counted each episode as about 10-20 pages?
Edit - Also, as a solo, where do I post my reviews and how many pages of what I've read?

Are the books on Webtoon also on Goodreads? I've never heard of Webtoon before. We usually only count books which are listed on Goodreads, so you might have to get the books added to Goodreads for us to be able to count them x

I'm not sure they are on Goodreads... Webtoon is a graphic novel/comic mobile app (I think website too), similar to Kindle/E-Books.
Ah, well, I should probably read physical books more than reading on my phone anyway. Thanks!

You should be able to get them added on the librarian's group ☺

I looked at the requirements, and because it's not technically a published book it doesn't have an ISBN or ASIN or page count. Thanks anyway!
Am I in for solo? If not, I would like to be, please.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Yes, I've added you for Solo ☺

Jo, I don't have any spaces on teams at the moment, but I might do soon so I've popped you on the waiting list ☺

[Brooke]

Hate to be that person, but can the dates of the challenge (the ones listed under the challenges part on the main group page) be changed from July29th to August 1st? Please and thank you! I use it to actively check my progress and its very off with the July 29th date 😔

[Erin]

One last quick question: Where do I document my pages read so they’ll be tracked? Is there a channel? (e.g. If I read 108 pages today, where would I post that so it’ll be counted?)

Done ☺ Sorry, if we put a future date Goodreads won't let people join until that date x

We just count the pages when you finish the book, so you don't have to update each day ☺ But if you want to make status updates about your books you can do that on Goodreads' home page xx
