Mod
If you are claiming a BB ticket (or GRA), you need to say this explicitly in your post, not just list a number of books at the bottom.
Mod
You had already claimed task 10.8 in post 17. Was this supposed to be task 5.7 or another task? You must repost with another task.
Mod
OK!

I'll pick it up this time, but please be sure to indicate that in the future. Once we're past the first few posts, it's too difficult to go back for things. Thanks!
Mod
Bec, 15.6 needs to have a significant law enforcement character. Please identify the character.
Mod
Task 5.3 requires "point out the "round thing"
Please repost with the required information
Mod
Task 15.6 requires a police officer or law enforcement professional as a significant character. Please identify the character- there is no reference to law enforcement in the book description
Mod
Math error: 5.8, 5.10, 10.8 = 20, not 15
He's a Ranger and part of the army. That's why the series is called Mackinnon's Rangers
Mod
The author says this: "fighting for the Crown not as Redcoats, but as Rangers - men whose style of fighting is modeled more after Indian than European warfare." Clare's Rangers are not professional law enforcement.
Army wouldn't be included in the category?
Mod
Bec, "ex-military officer and all-around tough guy Joe Hunter" cannot be considered a law enforcement officer for this task. This book could fit 5.10, 10.4, 10.9, 15.10, 25.1- Plumeria or others.
Mod
Letters to a Young Poet has only 80 pages. If you read another edition with 100+ pages, please repost with a link to that edition

OK, will find a suitable book and post Ashes to Ashes for another task.
I think one of my Goodreads author tickets got missed - I suspect it's from post #103 for Mitchell Zuckoff. Added to my two from post #66, I come up w/3 total.
Hi, I claimed a Goodreads author ticket. There's one under "MG," which I think is me, but I'm "MJ." If that's not me, then I think I was missed, and I'm happy to correct my post is I did something wrong. Thanks!

My mistake!
Mod
Task 15.7- The word must be in the title or subtitle, series titles do not work
Mod
Sorry not to get back to you sooner - I have been out of town all day for work (spoils all my fun!) I'll check on it and fix any problems, probably not tonight but tomorrow.
