I can relate to this. I need a bottomless cup of coffee this morning.

New word!

Looks like we have a good amount of books with a brown item on cover and white text on cover, so no need to go looking for those.

Not sure how many times we'll be trying to spell this one, but right off the bat, I can see where we may have problems. The difficult letters will be E, I, U, Q and N.

We have 10 Ns in our bank but there are 3 Ns in the word, so if anyone is looking for something to read that would be a good place to start.

I finished

I have to recommend if anyone is interested in this one, to pick up the audio. It's fantastic, and incorporates music into the story really well.

Updated all the info into the spreadsheet.

This sounds scary Shannon!

Finished Shelter by Jung Yun.

Characters: Kyung Cho, Gillian, Ethan, Mae, Vivi, Lentz

Colour of text on cover: red & white

I'll take a look for colour stuff and add to spreadsheet when I get a chance.

Sure. Here you go. Is this enough?


ETA: I just found this picture on the internet and have no idea who that woman is.

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around much today. I was at a 100th birthday party for my partner's grandmother.

I LOVE that Bank Stats tab. It's nice seeing at a glance if we're low on anything, and when I just can't decide what to read next, its nice to have a way to narrow it down a bit.

Wheel is 4 weeks.

for the Bank

I'll update it on the sheet as soon as I've searched the text for all my colors. Hubby wants to watch a movie tonight, but once ..."

Pfft, I didn't do any more work than the rest of you, I just complained more :D

You can keep going

I'm burnt out on updating that spreadsheet right now, so I'll be around Goodreads but probably not adding much to the spreadsheet for the moment. Haven't even picked up a book yet today.

We can use audio narrators on any books, even if the audio was not listened to. Its a nice bonus that can give us an extra letter or two.

Can you give us some character names in the book please?

If the google preview doesn't work, there is also Amazon's look inside feature which has a search. That one is available, I'll search it right now

Edit: Nevermind, I see someone else got to it already.

24 hours to go until the end of Olympics!!!

Everyone excited for Wheel-a-thon?

Thanks jingles!

Not sure. It depends on when the official spreadsheets are ready to go. They said they're working on it.

This sounds like a good idea

Finished Deep

We're in the top group for WAT, no surprise there really, because we rock, so we get the hardest words.

Looks like we're gonna need to make sure we have some options for Z, and X and Q, as well as all the vowels. Now I'm glad I banked that Matthew Quick book earlier. I also noticed in my BookBub email today a freebie by Zoe York. I downloaded it, think there's a good chance it will come in handy.
