35559 That's really a shame. And no way to have it count for this round?

35559 Oh, no. I completely forgot to mark Undead and Unwelcome as read last friday.
Is there a way to still make it count for the previous round?

Our word to spell out for the fifth round is: Saxophone (no more U!!!)"


Yeah for no more U's !!!
But X is just as hard in my opinion. At least we only need 1 per word and it's a longer one so not as many.
I guess I'l just have to read Iron Flame for the X main character. Oh woe is me ! ;)

We need some more Us, Vs, Zs to..."


I'll try to squeeze in one more undead book then. Not sure if I'll be able to finish Doctor Zhivago though. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day, and I won't have any time to read on Saturday. We'll see.

How lucky we are that they are easy to read though? even if they are really dumb
