Hi!

This is Maddie and I think I should have 1 Big Book Ticket that is not on the Readerboard. My post for The Cider House Rules (587 pages) was for Task 15.3 and is post #40 on the completed tasks board.

Thanks for looking into this!

So sorry, Maddie - it always takes me a little while to switch my brain from doing readerboard to doing BB/GRAs. Problem fixed, and your BB ticket will show up in the next update.

No problem! Thanks for fixing it! :)

I'm not claiming a GRA. That was a mistake in copying my points list. Sorry about that.

Sandy wrote: "Jennlynn post 273

Sandy, I am so sorry. I was so worried about being sure to link to the version with the correct number of pages, that some of the links don't indicate he is a GR author (which I didn't realize when posting). No big deal about getting a ticket for GRA, but since this is my first time participating in this challenge I am trying to do everything right. :) Thanks for all the work you do organizing this!

Sandy and Jennlynn, this was a GR Librarian issue. Some of the editions were under the GR Author but not all. I have corrected that now. All editions will show Michael Wallace as a GR Author.

OK - repost the task, stating at the top that you're reposting to claim a GRA ticket. Be sure to do a complete repost, including links. You can go to your original post, click "edit" underneath and copy it from there - then paste into new post. (That will preserve the formatting from your original post). Then, just edit the new one to include the reference at the top to reposting to claim Michael Wallace as GRA.

The series information is present- no problems. The series title does not appear in the title link display (that's the correct GR display) it appears on the book's main page
