Could we go ahead and lock in all the group reads books that qualify? There seems to be quite a few of them.
It is only necessary to post in this thread those books that are close to 4.0. But they should be in this thread if you're worried about them dropping below 4.0. (I had not planned on looking up every book before they are posted in the Completed Tasks thread.)

Thanks
I’d like to lock in Tap to Tidy by Stacey Solomon. It’s rated 4.04 at the moment but it has relatively few ratings so the rating might change before I finish reading it.
Hi -- I'd like to lock in ratings for Youth and the Bright Medusa (1920) by Willa Cather --Currently the rating is: 4.00
I would like to lock in Where I've Been, and Where I'm Going: Essays, Reviews, Prose by Joyce Carol Oates at 4.0.
Hi -- I'd like to lock in Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket: Stories -- today it is 4.18. Last week it was 4.20, so I'd like to lock it in before it sinks anymore.
I would like to lock in Millie, M.D.: The Story of a Nineteenth Century Woman, 1846-1927 by Helen Dann Stringer at 4.5 (but only 2 ratings). I haven’t decided whether to use this for COA or One of the other tasks. Better safe than sorry!
