Lara | 2335 comments I wasn't sure we would make 10,000, since we have mostly been averaging less than 1,000/month. But, since we have such a great head start, and we'll have the holidays, it might be possible. I'll be working hard on my share :-)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 752 comments OK I created a shelf and connected it to this and I've been posting. But I never see myself on the updates. So I guess I don't get what's going on with this.


message 660: by Gisela, Moderator (new)

Gisela (chicadorlando) | 4022 comments Those mentioned in the updates are those that didn't create a shelf for the challenge and report their books here. I checked the challenge page and I you're there, so your books are being counted towards our total. I also saw that you completed yor challenge, Congratulations!

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 752 comments OK I got it now. Thanks

message 667: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 752 comments I think I can probably do another 10 or so but that's probably it. Maybe more if I do nothing but read while DD is visiting her father.
