Be sure to post the books in order, Opt. 1 first, then opt. 2.
The mods also like a specific format. Opt. #, the a brief description of what the task calls for, then a link to the book and author, then how the book fits.
Everything looks like it works. Have fun.

Dear Dee,
I have written to a mod and hopefully the following will be added to Opt. 3.B. soon:
"If a book is in a series, you may use any book in that series as your choice."
thanks - i did manage to find the second book in the trilogy that i hadn't read yet - so i may go that route - but the third one is the one i'm most interested in
