THIS THREAD IS ONLY FOR THE POSTING OF READ BOOKS BY TEAM MEMBERS IN ORDER TO ASSIST THE CAPTAINS

Hi all, when you're posting books read here could you please try to include the following. It makes it easier in matching up goals etc.

- the book (please link with the "add book/author" feature if possible)
- page numbers of the edition you read (the one on your shelf!)
- date read
- any open goals it may work for
- if it was a BOM then if you wrote DQs or participated in the discussion

- OPTIONAL: anything interesting about the book that may count for a later open goal (for example, there's a gargoyle in the book)

You can find a list of all possible goals

- Read a book with no labelled chapters
- Read a book where the first word of the text is As
- Read a book with a book on the cover
