Thanks for the heads up on the pseudonym! I would not have had him in the list, but now you're good. However, this doesn't work for 10.8 because it is the first in the series.

You are claiming this for 20.6 and then have that task as combo. Which other task did you mean for the combo?

This doesn't work for 10.3 because Karin has an "I" in it (and don't fret, I've had trouble with this task all season). But does it fit 20.6 for characters?

What did you think of this one, Rebekah? I've got it from the library and it's sitting on my table right now and am trying to decide whether or not to pack it with me when I leave for work tomorrow... I'm already planning on taking four other books with me and if you didn't love it, I'll take it as a sign and my luggage will be that much lighter ;-)

Mods, you're gonna hate me. I'm moving all of my books from my second round of RG , because I don't think I'll finish it and it's worth so many more points as straightforward tasks. I'm sorry I didn't realize this sooner :-/
