J. Gowin So, you've read a book towards completing your challenge, and you now realize that the book qualifies for multiple categories. How do you decide where to put it. If you find yourself in that predicament, post a comment here. Someone may be able to help sort it out, or you might give a lead to someone having a tough time checking off a category.

J. Gowin I've been planning to read The Man-Eaters of Tsavo for a while now. It occurs to me that it fills several categories.
1.) Africa
2.) Movie ("The Ghost and the Darkness")
3.) History (the actual lions are on display at the Chicago Field Museum)

And I am sure there are several more.

Natália Lopes (silkcaramel) I think you can choose based on which category is the most difficult to fill. If you have other books on your TBR list that can fit, let's say, Africa and Movie, put this one in History. That's how I would do it!

It looks like it could fit into several categories! Humor, memoir, travel, an interesting title...

I'd pick the category you're least likely to read another book in!
