Rules:
Translation:
For each book you read, count the number of letters in the title (including subtitle), the authors first name, the authors last name or any combination of the above. Add these totals together until you get to exactly 100. [See example 1] If you go past 100 leagues (letters), you may use more books to sail back again (subtract) to get to the 100 league mark.[See example 2]
All book formats allowed (ebooks, audiobooks, graphic novels, paperbacks, etc.) But there is a minimum page count of 125 pages per book to be valid to earn gold dubloons
