Wondering why it isn't showing up on the spreadsheet... (I don't know which parts are automatic and which require captain input)

You still need a read date on the book, otherwise it won't show up on the sheet.

There will always be some delay before it shows up, the sheet runs an automatic update once an hour so it can take up to that long before it shows up. It also needs to be correctly shelved (but also correctly added on GR - but that's another issue entirely)

Basically all tabs part from LLS planning, Battleship goals, goalless books and pageoverride is automatically imported and updated.

PM me the information about the book and I'll add it to the system and you can change your edition to that :)

Annika, I'll have to do a little bit more digging to find the word count and such for this book, or even just the page number honestly.

In the meantime, I have completely read another book today.

No worries, I found a word count on Smashwords - all fixed now:)

Thank you so much Annika! I've been stressing out about it a little bit and it's appreciated.

So I stayed up almost all night reading this thriller mystery which I couldn't put down. I picked it up via BookOftheMonth but I just haven't gotten to it yet until yesterday.
