Trisha I'm making a planning thread. Do we post after each book we finish?
is there posting information requirement (review, read date, etc)?

Welcome to the challenge, Trisha!
No, review, read date, and rating aren't required. You just need to update every time you finishe a book and show which of the requirements the book fits.
