I have a question. You said completed Lost 2021 do you mean Lost 2022? I never completed Lost 2021 that's why I am asking.
and
can I start this even though I have not finished part #2? or do I wait.

I did mean Lost 2022...just forgot to update it. Thank you for catching that. And, yes, parts 2 & 3 can be done concurrently.

I'm doing quite well with my FOUND 22 books, so just wondering whether I can manage a go at this one as well. A question though....

Do the 3 LOST books have to satisfy both conditions 1 and 3? Or one of 1 or 3?

(Similarly for the 3 FOUND books. Must they satisfy both conditions 2 and 4? Or just one of 2 or 4?)

Oh, and another question.....should all 10 LOST AND FOUND books be by different authors?

It's
>1 or 3
>2 or 4
>no, you can do same authors but just beware of the limitations per above conditions :)

Lagullande, you can do both Found as well as LOST and Found at the same time, if you wish. And, yes, Tien is right. It is one or the other condition not both.

Authors can be repeated if the book meets the criteria chosen.

Thank you, Tien and Bea. That's super-helpful.

I'm in!! First time ever! Yay me.

Michelle, that seems to be a constant in my world. I still have one book for one challenge from last year...but will have lots from this year unless I get in gear!
