Thanks, Tannat! You rock lol!

I'm an idiot! I don't need the pages. I actually landed on the visiting jail square and need to DONATE 300 pages rather than check them out. Sorry.

lol I think the rules have been updated so that you only need to read 100 pages when you land on Just Visiting. MR?

#23 by: Abandoned by user date: 8 years ago discussions stats

The rules were updated - 100 pages gets you out of jail visiting!

#24 by: Hol date: 8 years ago discussions stats

That's brilliant! I'm nearly there then. Thanks guys.

If we've read a short story (or stories) for the jail library Memorial Day donation, do we report it here? (If so, 10 pages, His Last Bow (WWI), Sir Arthur Conan Doyle)

If not, can someone kindly point me in the right direction?

#26 by: Abandoned by user date: 8 years ago discussions stats

Yes, report it here! I will keep the tally. Is yours 10 pages, or is 20 with the war enhancement?

The novella I read, A Christmas Hope (Of Love and War #1.5) by Stacy Henrie, stops at page 91 of a 131 page book (the rest are excerpts from the other books in the series). The story takes place one week after Armistice Day 1918 and involves a soldier who served in France. So I am donating 182 pages to the fund.

20 with the war enhancement (10 physical pages doubled to 20 for WWI setting)

Please add 99 pages to the Jail Library balance for my read of the novella Inside Job by Connie Willis.

It's not war-themed, so just the plain 99 pages it is.

Hi. I managed to crack on with my read of The Metamorphosis and have read 131 pages since Friday. Can I please donate 100 of them to the library? There is no war connection (well, not modern war anyway) so it would be without the war enhancement.

I´ve been visiting the jail and have finished Do Androids Dream of Electric sheep. 193 pages goes into the jail library.

And I have read 50 pages (not war-related) of Fire from Heaven today and I will gladly donate these pages in concideration of Memorial day.

Hi! I just finished reading The Perfect Poison, and would like to donate pages to the library for Memorial Day Weekend. If my understanding is correct, we can only donate up to 100 pages? If that isn't the case, The Perfect Poison is 364 pages, which I will gladly donate to the library.

Hi, I've been visiting the jail library and read 87 pages of The Power and 68 pages of Bad Mommy (which I've decided to DNF). That gives me a total of 155 pages to donate.

I read 3 Sherlock Holmes short stories:

The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle
The Adventure of the Speckled Band
The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb

for a total of 50 pages!
