what's MGP Music ?

MPG Music is Main Page Genre. So like -



these all have 'Music' for a main page genre.

Under the title and synopsis, there's a 'Genres' section and if it's on there before clicking 'Show all' then it works.

ok thanks! thank makes more sense i'll keep that MPG in the bank for later (maybe) if I remember it

For whatever reason, Goodreads never lets me look at the entire list of books. But if a book is tagged 6 times as Halloween, I’m pretty sure it’s on the Halloween Book List. Is it okay to assume it’s on the list?

It does the same to me. After a certain amount of pages, I get the "oops"

It looks like it's on a halloween list - but only for YA.

So, I will say no to that one.

You can always go to the books page and scroll all the way down until you hit the lists section. Then it'll tell you what list your book is on. For Ashlyn's book, I checked all the editions just to make sure.

Just using the same book example, here's the page of all the lists the book was on -

Thank you!

That’s a different type of list though. The one for the Halloween you have linked is a “shelves” list, so it pulls up all the books that people have tagged on their Halloween shelves. One you can vote for, the other you can’t.

Oh, I see... yes, you can put it for that task. Since page 26 and beyond are unknown.

Hi Alaina!

I ran across a few issues..

The task Author's initials are in GOZER is listed twice - #59 and #107

For 63. Tagged 'Neighbors-to-lovers' at least 10 times - I could not find any book since maximum tags for this were 8 on GR
https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/...

Same for 97. Tagged 'Chaos' at least 10 times
There are surprisingly very few options to choose from - so could a variant of this tag work. What would be acceptable?

Oh, thank you! I switched 59 from GOZER to DANA.

For 63, changed this from 'Neighbors-to-lovers' to tagged 'Neighbors" at least 10 times.

For 97, I will accept chaos or chaotic at least once.

All spreadsheets and review threads should be updated now .

Thank you so much Alaina!!

When it says MPG does that mean it has to be on page one of the tags or on the actual page that has a picture of the book cover and the synopsis and reviews?

is not on the list, but since it has the word "sin" in the title, can I count it for #33. Read a book from the The Seven Deadly Sins list?

for the "inspector" prompt does a detective count *i.e. Hello, Transcriber

Book's main page genre's - for example, Still Hung Up on You has the following main page genre's:

Romance
Audiobook
Fiction
Contemporary
Chick Lit
Novella
Short Stories
Clean Romance
Contemporary Romance

Unfortunately, no it will not work for that book since the list is about books with titles that feature a deadly sin in it. Like lust.

However, it does work for 100. 'Temple' in text
"temple of sorts"

Just not sure the percentage or page number but it mentions temple at least 4 times in the book.

I will accept detective or inspector.
