I really love historical fiction (and non fiction). I’m excited to read this one. I started it last night and had to force myself to stop because I was already enthralled 😂

Gustaf | 553 comments All,
I'm sorry that I'm going to be a bitter person right now but please, please, please follow the instructions for the spreadsheet. I've just spent hours on it, trying to put your books from there to the official spreadsheet. It would've been much faster if everything was correct.

With this I mean
Put all the information in the correct fields.
Book - Read By - Date (When you have finished it) - Reason - Also works for (this one I'm just as bad with and it's the least important one)
Make the field yellow when you have read it.

Me or Helke will then make it green when it's transferred to the official spreadsheet. So when it's green, everything is good and there's no need for you to mark it yellow again.

Thank you and I promise to be less bitter from now on.


message 270: by Gustaf (new)

Gustaf | 553 comments On a happier note, the spreadsheet is updated with the mini challenge. Please claim your books that you have claimed in this thread as soon as possible.


message 271: by Diane (new)

Diane | 957 comments Do you want us to color code the mini challenge spreadsheet as well?


message 272: by Sarah (new)

Sarah Twiggs (twiggssl) | 572 comments Sorry! I know I changed mine. I had misread one of the messages and then saw others who were marked completed with a different color.

Didn’t mean to cause frustration 😞
