that won't work - the task requires that "average rating consists solely of the numbers 3, 4, and 5." The 6 knocks this one out.

This is a two book task. No books with the genre childrens or kids may be used. The books must have a combined total of at least 600 pages.
Choose 2 books from 2 different options:
Required: Identify the options.
1. Read a book that is #3, 4, or 5 in a series. The series designation must be noted in the GR record.
2. Read a book whose average rating consists solely of the numbers 3, 4, and 5. Numbers can be used more than once, and not all of the numbers must be used. So, for example, a book with an average rating of 3.33 would work, as would a book with an average rating of 4.35. Since ratings can change quickly and frequently, you can post in the help thread to "lock in" the rating when you select your book.
3. Read a book where the number of pages includes at least 2 of the numbers 3, 4, 5. So, a book with 345 pages would work, as would a book with 432 pages.
