I hope you've been collecting your books! The Reading Drive has begun!
This drive will end on July 1st, and at that point you will be able to purchase items from the shop. Good luck!

dear subeta,
with the prices of books being so high, it is very hard to donate enough books to get what you want from the shop. I recomend either...
1) restocking the Book Nook with everything possible every two minutes or so
2) giving away books as free gifts
3) or, lower the prices in the book drive shop.
please consider these suggestions, and thank you for making subeta fun. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

The prizes are so incredible. Thank you so much.
I'm having trouble donating books with numbers at the beginning of the title (ie 101 Uses for Llama Spit, etc). May I have some help, please?

Good thing I bought up most of my books as soon as Keith mentioned The Reading Drive in his video <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />. I don't have many to get, I will have donated 333 books once I throw them all in there.

OH GOD I LOVE YOU FOR THE ARTEMIS FOWL REFERENCE. I have to get that too, now ;___; not enough books...
Aw man, I''ve got 100 books and counting now.
I love so many of the items, so many of my favorite books are referenced!
Of course there just had to be Twilight(yuck) sparklepire glitter but I guess eh, gotta appeal to everyone.
Nevertheless I am PSYCHED! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

In answer to the unanswered questions, if you had points left over from the last drive (The Sacred Book of the Faeries was actually in the shop for that one too), then, when you spent whatever points you did, it arbitrarily took away whichever books you had turned in that it wanted to. So, if you had points left and check your books read, it will show one book that you had read for each unspent point from last time that you have. So, you can't re-donate those, and, basically, get screwed out of those points that you had had left over, since now you can't re-donate those books for this drive, and you hadn't spent them after having earned them last time.
You'll be able to spend them at the end of this drive, of course, but it's really equivalent to losing them from last time, because, had you spent them, you'd now have that item, plus the ability to turn all of them back in and re-get the points for them for this time. (I know this, because I had the points for the Sacred Book of Faeries, but then that half price shops glitch fix resulted in some of the prices ending in 6's, so I no longer did, so now I have the equivalent of 45 books turned in that, in actuality, I had turned in last drive and was unable to get my item).
The Shop should have been open for 3-5 days prior to the start of the the current Drive, with the prices corrected back down to what they should have been (which I had requested be done months ago), so that those who had left over points could have the opportunity to spend them, then closed down for the duration of the drive, which, unfortunately, was not done, so those with left over points will just have to eat the loss.

Is anyone else having problems turning books in? Mine are stuck in inventory and I cannot donate to reading drive =/ Yes, these are not duplicates...
-sad- 453 books donated and..still not enough for everything I want. However: -checked off one Malice/enough book points for Liger's new weapon. 53 left over for other items...hmm.
Why can't the shop be open now? July 1st is soooooo far away. Will subetahq be getting the wardrobe previews in before then? I want to figure out how to split my points.
I can NOT buy anything!! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> It is messing up just will NOT let me but I am SURE Subeta will fix this. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
Oh man. I love the Dragonlance book reference. And the Harry Potter ones, WIN. I wish I knew what the new items look like if they are wearable...
Oh perfect timing. e.e As always. Now to search my 31+ pages in the vault for various books I collected.
Sacred Book of the Fairies was an Artemis Fowl reference? That's what I thought. xD!
Does anyone else wish there was a "Turn in All Books" button? DXX

So, Subeta. Whichever artist drew and wrote the description for Sacred Book of Fairies, tell them they're my new favorite one. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" /> Right on top of whoever made Truth Serum, and then the creator of Celsius 232.8.

Are we allowed to keep collecting more books and continue turning them in after we turn them in the first time? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_xface.gif" border="0" /> Sorry if I sound stupid, but I've never done this before.

YAY I've been waiting for this day to come, have over 500 books this time. Keith said on twitter (over the last few days) that if you have left over points from last years drive, to spend them now as when the Book Drive is open, you will not be able to donate those certian books to get more points. So basically you need to have spent last years points.

I recognize a few book references (A Little Princess; my favorite movie). I bet all the books out there will inflate for awhile.
My fingers are cramping from removing books from my gallery and from turning them in. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> There has to be an easier way... not to mention the lag. x_X

Glad we have until July 1st. That's how long its gonna take to donate all of my books with this lag. Nice items though!
Sweet, I have enough for Malice and the tiger plushie, I'll have to buy the Satisfied Teagra Beanbag off some lucky user though. Most have it for my tiger gallery.
The site is lagging so turning them in is really difficult. Is there a way you could make it where we can donate more than one book at a time? I have over three hundred so it's going to take a while.
-grabby hands at tiger items- Sweet, I'll have to buy the cheaper one off the users though, Malic is -so- mine.
This really makes my day. Thanks Keith and staff!!! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
