I am not sure if my edition works for the cover task:



What do you think?

Thanks Beth.

Rina - I'll ask.

I have also found
and on KU.
I think they both will work, won't they? If yes, I can switch to any of them.

Rina the mods said ok to your book for Thanksgiving on cover. But either of those would work too so whatever you want is fine.

For Week 4 we've received INDIAN as our word.

Thanks Melissa!

Oh boy a whole week with only four letters to work with, this will be fun. LOL

haha I know! But at least we have a lot of chances to fill 'I' for the Toughest Letters :D

How is everyones week going? :D

Good for me. Almost done with Gone with the Wind
and The Temptation of Dragons

Almost done with Orlando.

Yay! :)

We are all done for this week right? :)

Time change threw me off a bit, thought there was another half hour to go but it looks like we're into week 4 already. Hope everyone that didn't get posted can squeeze in under the I/N/D/A we're limited to this week.

I am sorry that i didn't get a chance to post my completed book. I have had family issues the past couple days that needed to be dealt with.

If you finished it after the cut off it can go towards this week if it will fit the letters in some way.

Would this count for Indian being on the cover:

Thanks for updating everything Sunny!!!! Sorry I didn't get on this weekend - something came up and I couldn't get to the computer.

Jennifer It's ok we all understand.

Let's try to get as many books as possible this week!

We are on Indian correct? I have an N, a D, and a I

Yes we are.

No problem at all Melissa! :)

What is everybody reading currently? Are you enjoying it? If yes/no, why? :D

Paper Towns, Gone with the Wind and Einstein's Theories of Relativity and Gravitation

I am enjoying the first two but not the last one. In fact the last one might take me a long time to finish because it is so boring and dry.

I've started The Illustrated Book of Sacred Scriptures for the letter I. It's interesting so far. It's 175 pages, so I think I will be able to fit in a second book this week.

Hey everyone ! I’m sorry I haven’t been very involved in this . I am not sure if I have been replaced or not . It is towards the end :/ my reading slump has been horrible ! I haven’t finished anything the last month at all .

Hey Andrea - I will check with the Mods to see if you can still be involved. The criteria was to finish 1 book a week so I'm not sure. I'll let you know!

I'm listening to Breaking Dawn and reading Spinning Silver. I've read Breaking Dawn before so it's a good book for me to listen to at work. Spinning Silver is really interesting. I loved the author's previous book Uprooted.

Hey I forgot to update some books last week that I finished on Friday. Can we use them for this weeks word, or does the book have to be finished the week the word is going?

I finsihed another book yesterday and so I've added that.

I'm pretty sure that only the books finished in the current week can be used for the same week :) Too bad though.

Yeah I figured, but I wanted to ask to make sure. I had a super busy weekend and so I completely forgot to add them.

Would help for word as a genre? It has a MPG of Cultural > India. Would that work or not?

It's tagged Indian 4 times on the first page so it should count.

I finished my book. There's a chance I can fit in another one before the end of this week, but I'm not sure.

Here's hoping. I did read it last night :)

We have about an hour and a quarter left of this week! :)

If anyone has any last minute entries to post this would be the time! :)

I've learned to just start on the next week and not to try for those last minute reads. LOL

I posted 1 more book for this week. It has an Indian on the cover, so it counts for a bonus.

Just updated! :)

Team Shock...
The mods took 45 points away from your team as one of your books used for the bonus -word on the cover has 64 pages. ( Wolf's book) Minimum page count is 160 pages. Your book is way below the page requirement. 5 more points were removed for the book points.
Please make sure all books meet the minimum page requirement.

Hm... I'm curious being new to this group but I was under the impression you use the page count for the edition you read unless there wasn't one listed on that edition and there are tons of editions for that book over 160 pages.

Dang. The version I read had more than 160 pages.

I put the book down as the edition Wolf had shelved - I checked and it had more than 160 pages.

But now it has 64 pages...

So what is our next word? Doesn't the new word start today?

We have STOCKINGS this week. :)

It's not like the points would win us the challenge or anything but I'm truly curious on the rules since there are lots of book out there that have some counts under the limit and some over, would the default also have to be over or only our edition??

My guess is that mods check not only editions that are linked in the google sheet, but also the editions that are posted in the read books thread. And there is an edition with 64 pages (in this post)

Hm, well that's also something I would do too unfortunately if that is what they went by. I don't search out different editions either and just do the lazy way and use the default. :(

I've emailed the Mods about Wolf's Indian on cover book.

Wolf - the book you had for stocking on cover doesn't work. They are socks not stockings.
