I chose monthly challenge "the word summer in the book titles for the month of June July ,August ,[bookcover :Summer with the Marine|49804629].So far is light reading and I am on for this ride .Jenny

I have never tried one of these challenges. It sounds fun. Think I am going to give it a try. Got to pick out some books later.

I’ve picked out books for the 10 categories. I am finishing my 4th Book. How do I cut and paste the 10 challenges and write the books next to them. Can I update it as I go alone. Sorry, I haven’t done this before and want to. Any help, I appreciate.

Hi Kristine, all you have to do is copy and paste the text from my original post at the top into the comment box and then post.

Then when you want to update just come to that same post and click edit.

Don't forget that once completed you must post in the reporting thread (not here)

Lynn, thanks so much. For some reason, I can not copy and paste. Perhaps there is a problem with my iPad or slow internet connection. I will try again later.

You also don't have to post here if you can't ..... just have notes on your own phone / computer / notepad etc and then just post your results when done.
