The winning team has 400 bonus points - obviously concentrating on retellings. So even if we had similar book reads we arent getting the extra points. And if they BR some of those that also adds more points for the same book.

For me being on a cruise and with limited access to the internet, I have wasted a lot of time. Reading stuff and finding the task covered when I get back in; waiting for an answer to a question before starting something and then not getting back in to get the answer in a timely fashion. Not having access to the spreadsheet because of this internet server blocking Google docs and sheets.
And being limited to stuff on my kindle because I cant download anything new because of the server.

I have a few things read but no spots for them. I am going to list them in a separate message here and if they can work please put them in.

For features a goat - my book has 35 text references to goats (MC lives next to a goat farm, tries milking and making cheese) but (a goat) is not featured - could this work?
