I read some very weird stuff and its always disturbing and difficult to read about those subjects. I 'm going to see if my library has it and give the book a try as I have wanted to read it for some time.I'll let you know what I think if I 'm able to get it

I finished Shiver! It was awesome! Lol another one for you Teddie( YA, fantasy)

Yeah that's a good idea. We can do it that way!

I wonder what our cards for March will look like!"

its almost like Christmas.. lol.. the anticipation!

I think she will definitely get some good feedback from it! I would participate again, and we aren't even finished yet!

Beth (Ducky) wrote: "Haha I caught it right after she commented back so I already updated it. Do we want to keep one of the double points for a future month or do we want to use them all in February?"

Good question... we will finish the bingo squares so I think we should use all of our wilds and wild 4's ( 6 of them if I counted right) for this month.

Beth (Ducky) wrote: "Laura, have you been thinking about any books that you may want to read next month? I already have a tentative list of series books that I will try to knock out!"

oh yes! I' m sure Karen will have the new hands out soon! I think the reverse cards will be easy.

I think we worked really well as a team and though we may not finish all our hands we may be able to next time!

yes, I was going to suggest that! We have 2 in the first hand. Then when we complete the other bingo lines look for more wild or wild 4 cards and use them to double the points.

My book Fallen that I finished tonight works for the black cover, Karen just gave the ok!

thanks Karen!!

I'm pretty sure that individual teams claim their own points and you don't have to let them know as its on your spreadsheet

For Bingo: you can fill in dates for Graceling (2-24) and The Scribe (2-18) and Station Eleven (2-15) Would you swap in The Martian and swap out Night Watch for the..."

no problem, Fallen was such an easy read and so is Shiver and I picked a really short book to fill in for yours! I should finish Shiver tomorrow evening and the other Thursday or Friday night!

Beth (Ducky) wrote: "Oh never mind, just remembered that June said The Good Knight fits there. the only spot we need now is black cover and then as long as we all finish our books then we are finished with it!

Then we..."

If you look at Betty Boops spreadsheet, then you can see how they claimed points.

I m still waiting on Karen's verdict for the black covered book:)

Karen could we please have a ruling on for a black cover?

Beth (Ducky) wrote: "Do we have a book that is set in the UK?"

yes, I think so, someone posted earlier, which means horizontal 2 is also complete

Beth (Ducky) wrote: "Updated! Remember we do have the free space open still"

For bingo:
check with Kirsten, her copy of The Perks of Being a Wallflower may be a green cover.

you can use my Undead and Unwed for the free space, your book Perfect will fit for 3rd in series and I 'll wait to hear from Karen and see if my book will fit for black.

Finished Fallen!! Also works for the free space in bingo
a really good YA, fantasy book. I 'm looking forward to the next one in this series.


Starting works for Teddie's card 9 that she doesn't think she will finish( character's name is Nick)

Yes I 've started Fire, the next one, but I don't like it as much. I may skip it and read the next one. Hopefully Po will be back in the third one! You are welcome! Glad you liked it.

Teddie wrote: "I'm almost done with Graceling, and will get The Martian read before March 1 - not sure I will get Night Watch done - can we move Sliver of Truth (takes place in NYC) or some other hand eleven book..."

I think I can squeeze a short one in that will work for your nine!

June wrote: "Hi Becky, I've finished Sliver of Truth and One of Our Thursdays Is Missing.

Currently reading Deja Vu for the mini-challenge- the white cover. Can also work as card ..."

June's Deja Vu book got missed, it will work in the wild card spot, hand 11 ( see above for reasons it will fit)

Wasn't it awesome?
