Laura, I really liked Eleanor & Park - recommended it to a coupl..."

Yeah!! I'm glad you liked it. I skimmed the comics part very quickly but loved the rest of it. I haven't read Ready Player One yet, but I think I 'll add it to my tbr if it isn't already there!!

Alexa, I loved this book. I wanted to buy the next ones but I put in for an inter library loan I will have to wait forever to get the next two. Some of the other Uno teams are also reading this series and I 've seen that the second book is even better than the first! Enjoy!!

Laura, let me know how Tell No One is! ..."

Wow, you guys have been busy while I was at work today!! Keep up the great work! June and Kirstin, its great to hear from you both!

Beth, I am really liking Tell No One. I read his new one recently and I like this one so much more! 75 pages in and I would definitely recommend it!!! I am glad that you are liking Big Little Lies. I liked it. The little snippets were confusing at first but then they just added to the drama of it all. When you get to the end and you know who the killer is let me know. We'll use spoilers in case anyone else wants to read it!

More books to add to the spreadsheet...

hand 9, card 9=
( location= Neptune, starts with N)
also works for red for bingo

hand 9, card 2,=
( character Betsy Taylor, last name starts with T)

cover is pink.. works for back up pink book in case Beth can't get to hers)



works for hand 9, card 2 in place of my book Fire. ( Title starts with T) Beth can you please take out Fire and replace with this book.

Apoorv, have fun travelling, I hope you are somewhere warm!! I look out my windows and all I see is SNOW and its cold!! Safe travels!

We are doing great teammates! What's everyone working on?
I 'm working on reading and . This one is a bit longer and unfortunately I was expecting it to be as awesome as Graceling, so I am a little disappointed.

June, Kirstin & Apoorv, what are you guys reading? Are you able to help us out? I will be able to finish my books on the spreadsheet and add a few more before this month ends.
I am having lots of fun reading and chatting with you all about books!! Go team Speedracers!!!

I put Another Piece of My Heart on hold at my library Beth but I'm third in queue. I'll leave it there.. we may be able to use it in March's books as a reverse.

Hi guys , I have been combing this list for a pink covered book! No luck yet. Chick lit /romance books tend to have pink covers

I'd be broke:) which is why I use my library!!

Beth you like mysteries.. did you read any of Craig Johnson's books yet? The Longmire series? I am waiting for a couple of those to come in for me! Johnson's humor and character development are excellent!
