ᯓ the mods 🎀

@serenity for every book you read in november, you refer to the points system and write down the title, prompt and number of points in your house common room, hope this helps! 😊💗 feel free to ask any more questions if you don't understand.

also you can ask it on the FAQs topic

serenity wrote: "Hii I’m new to this group and I just wanted to know how does the challenge work??"

every book u finish in November falls under ONE of the prompts in the newsletter (which determines the amount of points for that book) 🫧🤍

once u determine which prompt the book has, u can log ur book into ur house chat with the following format:

book: xx
prompt: xx
pts: xx

I can’t find the new point system, am I blind? Where might it be?

@kaitlyn its at the top! The long message at the very top of this chat!

does it just not show up on mobile bc i cant see it

@viv yeah sm times Goodreads doesn’t load long msgs which is rlly frustrating, but I’ve tried seeing it on a browser like safari or chrome and it loads there, ik its effort but its a Goodreads issues 😭😭
