Check out the FAQs on the 2nd post. It answers a lot of questions regarding the "unique book." /topic/show/...

If you still have questions, I'll be happy to answer them! :)

Rushali Gupta (happy_soul) | 37 comments Hey guys! Any thoughts on a team name?

Rushali,

Just FYI, there is a specific chat thread for your team. You can use that for bookish (and non-bookish) discussions! :)

If you 3 decide on a team name, let me know, and I’ll add it to the thread title. Also, if new members join your team after you’ve already come up with a name, you do NOT have to change it!
