Book lists are opened for editing. Please put a # by books that you swap out and put an * by books you move around. You can only swap 5 books but have no limits on moving books around on your list.


Peggyzbooksnmusic | 1034 comments Thanks, Jasmine! My only edits were to show which titles I read in July.

Julia (julia103) | 127 comments I replaced three books and didn't move any around. The ones with * are from when I moved books on July 1st.
Jasmine - do you want me to take off the * on those?

Joanne (joabroda1) Jasmine-

I replaced #'s 15,26,29,31,and 36. I switched #'s 7 and 38. I think I removed all the notations from July 1st if they have not been read. Any #'s I have read are crossed out.
