The Seasonal Reading Challenge discussion

task 30.4 The titles you claimed are not on the read shelves for the group you indicated."

Well, that's odd, because they came up when I searched for them in the shelves. Nevertheless, I can use them for another challenge.

Marty - they might have been on the to-read shelf, not the read - because they would still show up in the search

If you simply do a "search for books" you get any book that anyone mentioned in a comment/discussion in the group. If you use the links that are posted in the task, they take you directly to the "read" bookshelf - if you only want to see if a specific book is on that shelf, the easiest way is to sort the shelf by author or title.

To claim a big book ticket, you must link to the edition you read and it must indicate the number of pages. The edition of The Company of Glass that you linked to does not include a number of pages.

I think I'm missing a GR Author ticket from post #412. Thanks for checking.

Sorry, Jen, looks like I got the BB ticket for the book and didn't enter the GRA - it's fixed now and will show up in the next update.

thanks for the quick heads up!

Thx!

Yes that is the cover, it looked salmon pink to me. I can pick something else if needed.
