Uber User Posts: 370 Location: Beaverton, Oregon, USA | Can you please add "Sorcery and Cecelia or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot" by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer? I've been posting this all over forums, but I think I've finally found the right place for this request (Duh! Sorry this request is posted so many times. I feel stupid). I'm just about done with it and it's the last book for my WOGF challenge. Thanks! Steve | ||

New User Posts: 4 | Hi, Could you add Helene Wecker's The Golem & the Jinni, Sofia Samatar's A Stranger in Olondria, and Jen Michalski's The Tide King? Thank you! | ||

Uber User Posts: 237 Location: Grootfontein, Namibia | Oh, I second Sarah's request!! And we need a listing for The Bone Season: A Novel by Samantha Shannon. Keep an eye on this one, and the developing series! | ||

Regular Posts: 54 | Could you add Jagannath by Karin Tidbeck, Death by Silver by Melissa Scott and Amy Griswold, and The Chaos by Nalo Hopkinson? Also, what's the word on comic books? I read Captain Marvel vol. 1: In Pursuit of Flight by Kelly Sue DeConnick this past year and would love to count it towards this challenge, but I can understand why adding multi-volume, ongoing comic book series might be a can of worms this site doesn't want to open right now (or perhaps ever). | ||

Uber User Posts: 370 Location: Beaverton, Oregon, USA | Thanks so much! I posted the review, but it's not saving the book to my WOGF list. Checking the WOGF box makes the author radio buttons grey out, and the check doesn't get saved. | ||

Uber User Posts: 370 Location: Beaverton, Oregon, USA | I'm sooooo sad. The WOGF check box for "Sorcery and Cecelia" didn't work, and now the check boxes are gone. So I didn't get credit for completing the challenge :-( The review is posted though. | ||

I've fixed it now in the DB so you can revel in your accomplishment as you ring in the new year. | ||

Admin Posts: 4008 Location: Dallas, Texas | Well, the WoGF is over now except for the December review poll. Go vote if you have not already done so. It's time to close off this thread. Our apologies if we did not get to your book or author requests this year. It was a flood of requests at times and we did our best but we know we didn't get 'em all. We added 127 new women authors to the DB this year which is pretty good all things considered. I'll have to get Chris to tell me how many books we got but it must have been hundreds with all those series. It certainly felt that way! We're working on a book request form for this year that will streamline the process for the 2014 challenge which will likely end up producing a lot more book requests than even the WoGF did. The challenge will be announced Tuesday if all goes according to plan. Wish us luck and keep an eye on the blog for further announcements. I'll leave this thread open for some last comments then close it tomorrow night. | ||

Admin Posts: 4008 Location: Dallas, Texas | Dlw28 - 2014-01-06 5:53 AM Thanks for all your hard work. It was a great challenge. Thanks, Denise. I'm glad you enjoyed the challenge! So it turns out that for those 127 new women authors we added 832 books. That's not too shabby. | ||
