Enjoy Yellowface! It's got a great pace :)

Ooo okay find the hidden bar!

I have 2 on my shelf that could be used for the directions task.

The Empress of South America

We All Looked Up

Just finished Yellowface -enjoyed a lot more than I thought. I have got Poppy War on my WTR by the same author, and am looking forward to trying that series too.

Happy Weekend everyone !

Have lined up for this month's reading for the RED 7 Card

Travelling on a train this weekend so hoping to get lots of reading done. Happy weekend everyone!

Me too. When I start a book..."

Yes absolutely! Especially feel I'm "wasting" a book if the cover is an UNO colour outside of challenges.

Happy First day of UNO everyone ! May your books be enjoyable and reading be swift ;)

I started a new one last night and will be pushing to get that finished- couldn't just have a reading break !

Less than a week to go !!
Finishing off my current books so ready with a fresh slate

so yellow 0 and yellow 8 to duplicate for WD4

I think all the yellows have been claimed and one of the WD4 cards for a yellow spot too. There are still 2 more WD4 cards if you have another yellow book that could work ?

Happy to go for 2 colour cards too :)
those books will work for yellow skip and blue skip I think :)

Edit: added to planning spreadsheet- hope this was done ok?

Requested access too :)

First read will either be or

absolutely change my mind later after an emotional end!

I would love for Goodreads to have a half star option ✨I'm more likely to round up my stars than round down !

I've had The Dovekeepers on my TBR shelf for ages, will read it for this challenge after seeing it on your 5 star shelf!

It's no problem :)

oooo any good witchy or ghost books to recommend?

For the planning, I've found that the colour cards can often be the hardest. I have a look for those first to see if I can read for one :)

Hi everyone :)

I'm Dawn, from the UK and often reading with both of my cats clambering for space on my lap. Really open to recommendations but my most read genres are fantasy and historical fiction- both with some romance! A genre I have really been enjoying recently are fairy tale or mythology retellings/different spin to the traditional tale.

I've played UNO before, however last in 2022. Link to UNO2024 shelf

Looking forward to playing with you all (Ashleigh, I might have played with you like 6 years ago!).

PS. Mr Darcy is a great name
