Here is the reporting thread for Shelf-a-thon 8.
Like I said, there are a whole bunch of shelves that are not on the list this round. If you hit these shelves in round 7 (not with a GR cross off or some other lucky cross-off) you get to cross off extra shelves at the beginning of Round 8. Lucky you!
Here they are:
2010
2011
bookcrossing-com
currently-own
dtbooks
fluff
historicalfiction
kid-books
medieval
plays
sff
spl
unfiled
young-adult-books
The new shelves that have come in to replace these shelves that have fallen by the wayside are:
2011-reads
4-stars
criticism
detective
from-the-library
nothing-yet
on-my-bookshelf
own--not-read
owned-copy
print
public-library
read-2011
romantic
wanted
Here we go!!!

Sandy
Just to make sure - the shelf "own--not-read" is a shelf with 2 dashes between own and not, correct?
Adrienne Teague
That is correct Sandy. This is the first one we've had with the two dashes, I think. Gotta watch out for that.

Thanks, Adrienne - that's why I asked! There are so many odd shelf variations.......
