Angela's Shelf-A-Thon Challenge

Shelf-A-Thon 6 Reporting
For players from Shelf-A-Thon 5:If you touched any of these "old" shelves last time (not including any you crossed off for pages read, gr author or being a top shelver or randomly picked), cross off one shelf for each one you touched. One book for each shelf. So if I touched all twice, I would only cross off one shelf. So basically the number you could end up with is 10 total if you touched all 10 old shelves.
OLD SHELVES: africa, all, books-we-own, children-young-adult, criticism, in-my-collection, japan, read-for-school, school-books, to-read-interloan-my

It was over 400 pages so I'm counting a extra shelf. I'm going to go with "and". Is that a schoolboy error? Might it come up more than I would imagine? Ah, who knows, no doubt I will get a feel for the ones that don't appear much soon!

It's always a surprise which shelves get more marks. I always feel like I'm going to mark off something and be surprised later.

Well, now I can't find the other Hannah, so I must have been on crack when I recorded it. Go figure.
Sorry 'bout that.
