Chloe wrote: "how do you post a shelf?"

Hi Chloe! I'm not an admin but this is what you can do-

You can make a new post or edit the one with the question.
Start by titling it Chloe's Bookshelf (or whatever you want)
pick cover on the bottom where it says add:
Search for the book titles you want on your list.

Then post and you are good to go. You can edit your post if you want to change some books and also when we pick for our matches.
I hope this helped.
