esther ⭐️ (in school) | 154 comments I feel like this question has been asked before, sorry if I’m repeating it but I can’t find the answer.. Can we use one book for multiple tasks?

Hello!

Unfortunately, no. One book per task. The only exception to this rule is if you combine graphic novels/manga together to equal over 100 pages and they all must work for that task.

Grace Btrs (gracebtrs) | 2307 comments Technical GR-related question:
Is there a way to search within the tagged shelves? Ex: Cursed books or all the other shelves we have for this challenge (Renaissance, Dark Comedy, Abuse, etc.)
I honestly never know how to do that or to make sure the book is part of said shelf.

I sometimes can guess when it is part of the tags/MPG. But I don't know how to do it, if you can guide me please😊

Hmm, well, you could do a ctrl f to "search" for a certain book title on a shelf. Or the same thing when looking through pages of tags for a particular book. I wish there was a search bar when you are looking at a shelf or a list, but I don't think there is one.

if you have a book in mind to see if it works for a certain task, just let me know :)

Dale | 246 comments for the views: do we need to do it through goodread or can we write the review tab?

If you don't want to do a review, we do accept 4-5 status updates. Also, a review doesn't have to be super long or detailed. It can be 1-2 sentences really. OR you can write a small review when you are posting on your team's review thread. Here are some examples,

Status updates, look at reading process: /review/show...
Small review: /review/show...
Review in post: /topic/show/...

Hmm I'll move someone who hasn't checked into that team yet and add you to Team Cruella de Vil.

Please head on over to Team Cruella, here is the link to the team's chat: /topic/show/...

megs_bookrack | 2557 comments Do you have to start the book in September for it to count? I can't remember -- or do you just have to finish it and review it in September?

If you started a book before September but read 100+ pages in September, you can count the pages you read in September towards a task. If you read less than 100 pages in September, your book will only count for page points only and again you would put how many you read in the month of September.

If the task doesn't specify a type of hunting, all versions of it are acceptable.

Yes, if Amazon has a page count - you can use that if GR doesn't have one :) Sorry for just seeing this now
