message 162: by Hannah (new)

Hannah (goodquietkitty) I feel like I'm not doing as well this round. :( Probably because I'm still getting through this 5-book sci-fi series.

I was a random winner for June (yay!) so I'll nix cookbooks and cooking.

One of the books I just finished was 500 pages, so I'll cross off africa and architecture.

That takes me to:
15 books
220 shelves

message 166: by Natalie (new)

Natalie Baer | 182 comments I still don't figure this game out. Read 22 books and cross off 247 shelves? How you figure - cross off a shelf if the topic is mentioned in the book? How about a straight game of crossing off when you read the whole book? One book, one shelf.

Natalie - Have you read the rules? They're found over in this thread: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/3...

Check out message 23, then 22 (list of shelves). There's a spreadsheet that can help you keep track (if you want to do it that way) that Liz will send you if you ask over on that thread.
