WINNER! WINNER!
Apologies for not publishing this sooner - when we couldn't see each other in person at the MLA conference, I retreated to my natural state as a procrastinator. Today we reveal the top 4 teams and more telling, the juggernaut team who really buried us in almost all categories:
FIRST - Missouri State Library
SECOND - University City Public Library
THIRD - JCL Reads (Jefferson County)
FOURTH - St. Louis Public Library
Thanks to all the teams and their captains who are making this the longest running reading competition in the world.

SLPL Team Challenge Year Totals (2019-2020)
Now that we've finished a Challenge Year (August 31, 2020), it's time to look back at how we all did. While not everyone added posts through the entire year, we still welcomed their reviews (and their books/pages).
Over the Challenge year, SLPL Team's info was:
13 people
read 484 books
for a whopping total of pages
and 49 books tagged with the tag of "Author Name Double Letter"
!!!!!
Some more notable things from the Challenge year: Two of our members added reviews every single month, even in some of the early months of COVID when some of us just didn't quite get anything written for the month. So BRAVO to Julie E-C and Shirley J. who kept going and logging every month!!!!

Wild Cards for the 2020-2021 Blogging Year
Books with titles that end with Y — Does the title of the book end in Y? Yay, it counts for a wildcard! This doesn't include subtitles, just the main title.
Books that have a city in the title — This has to be an actual city, not just the word "city." And yes, if it's a town or a village or other municipality, that counts as a city too. For example, Welcome to Night Vale = yes. The City We Became = no.
Bloggers who have earned a college credit during the blogging season — Are you furthering your education? We want to celebrate that by giving the team wild card points!
