Sibling Challenge:   Monopoly Board Challenge - 
21 books

Challenge categories came from a monopoly-style game board, with categories labelled on spaces. Dice roll determined movement of a piece around the board, until a 'monopoly' of categories was completed.

Re-Roll Challenge -    Up to 38  books 

The sibling accused me of cheating, so I'm redoing the challenge with strict adherence to the rules. The rules don't allow rolling for the subsequent book until the current book is complete, so the final number of books will be determined at the completion of the challenge.
