Since mine's done, I'll use it so we can get a new goal. I didn't even think to check that :)

Hi Andrea,
The date you started reading Undertow is set on 'August 24', so it can't be used in this challenge. Only books that you have started reading after the challenge started count.

Hmm, that is weird because I just got it from the library recently and started reading it yesterday and finished it last night. I noticed some of my books already have ratings on them when I haven't even read them to rate them, my tablet is glitchy at times but that's fine I will read something else.

I'm not sure what options Goodreads on tablets has. Can you go trough your books on tower-teams shelf and edit dates to correct values?
I will go through and look, I noticed while going through some books my tablet marked them as read and I wanted them to go to the want to read section. I was wondering how it said date started in August but my library didn't get this book til last month...I will pay more attention to things, but thanks for letting me know so I can fix this. :)

Sonya can you please tag the books you have finished reading for this challenge with your 2016shelf? Or if that shelf no longer suits you, tell us which shelf you want to use for the challenge.
You have to use some shelf or else the spreadsheet does not count your books.
If you have any problems or need more detailed explanation, feel free to contact me or Judith or Imke and we will be glad to help.
