How do editions work for the bonus points? For titles I saw we can use any edition, is that true for all the categories? Or do the others need top rated? Or do you need to pick one edition for each book and use the same edition for all types of bonus points?
How do you link to the review you made yourself? And is it possible to do it mobile, I can only seem to link to the book page but not my specific review.

Hey Caroline, good question! Okay so any edition can work for any category BUT the page # one. For that, you will still be using the book at the top of the page when you click "Other Editions".

Hey! So when you go to the books page, you should see an area called "My Activity". From there you should see something say "review", you can click on that and it will bring you to your review for that said book. From there, you can click the link at the top of the page and copy that. Then paste it on your teams review thread like so:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
If you are doing it from your phone via internet, you will use the same steps above but open each thing on a different tab. That way it will be easier to move through multiple pages to copy and paste information.
If you are doing it from the app, you will click the book and once you get to that page you should see your review under the star rating. You can then click "see full review" and it will take you to that exact page. At the bottom you can click the share button. From there, you will click copy. Then go to your teams review thread and press paste.

Thank you! I think i did it right this time! Also if you need me to repost the link to the first review I can :)
Is Manga allowed? The Manga I read today was 352 pages. Not sure and I couldn't find if it's allowed or not
Mod
Yes, Manga and Graphic Novels will count for this challenge since it is a page count challenge. They will just count for 1/4 the points. so if your Manga was 352 pages it would be:
352 x .25% = 88 pages

Q: Bonus:
-Book that has 4 words in the title
-Book that was published in April (any year)
- Book that was published on the 4th day of ANY month
-Book that was published in a year that ends in a 4
-Book that has a publication date with all 4's in it (Published April 4th 2014 by Amazon Digital Services, Inc.)
Okay, I wasn't sure if I can use all the bonus? I mean. If it was published 04-04-2014. Do I use the date only once as full date or for all bonus points (month, day, year, date). :) Alaina, it's for you to decide. :D
A: Lol..uh, didn't think that would happen so quickly xD I'll give you the 12 pts for the whole date thing and then the 4 words.
Q: Can I use the 14th or the 24th day or any month for the 4th day bonus?
A: No you can't because I specifically stated the 4th day of ANY month.
Q: Am I doing my posts wrong? I'm not seeing the bonus points that I added to it?
A: Bonus points are for the team, not the individual. So yes, the bonus points are getting added every time you state one and I double check that it's correct.
