To claim completion, you will have to have read consecutive spins/books.
For example, 10 spins but goal's achieved by reading 7 thick books but if those 7 books are not in consecutive spin order, you can NOT claim completion.
Not Complete
Spin 1 - read
Spin 2 - read
Spin 3 - read
Spin 4
Spin 5 - read
Spin 6 - read
Spin 7 - read
Spin 8 - read
Spin 9
Spin 10
You must read for Spin 4 to claim completion.

You may ignore Spins 1, 9, & 10 and claim completion of Round.
The books do NOT have to be read in order but at the end, there must NOT be a gap in between spins to claim completion.
NOTE: if you were unlucky enough to get 'lose-a-turn' in one of your spins and it falls in the middle of your consecutive spins/reads then it must also be completed (even if the page numbers do not count towards your goal). The 'bankrupt' spin will also have to be included in your page total but it is applicable only to the spins/pages prior to the 'bankrupt' spin (that is if spin #6 is a 'lose 10%' then the 10% has to be applied to total pages of books #1 - #5).
