Ooh, let me know how you like it. I read it once but it was about 12 years ago and I can't remember any of it. I'm planning on Ways to Disappear by Idra Novey and The Terrible Thing That Happened to Barnaby Brocket by John Boyne which is over 50% green. This will be a great reading month!

88432 So I've got my eye on The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett but have a problem. It's a novella and isn't coming up when I search on http://www.arbookfind.com. I did however check http://wordcounters.com and that shows over 25,000 words. Think it's ok to use?

88432 Should I add any other books I complete on the spreadsheet or is there no point since we're finished?

I can't wait to see our April cards and start planning!

Congrats!

I think the narnia books would be fine, Shamber was reading some of them also. As long as they're over 25,000 on http://www.arbookfind.com/

88432 I think as long as they're over 25,000 words it's ok. Those would be fun, easy reads!

88432 I'm going to move Radium Girls out of the R slot in the mini challenge to fill one of the many C spots still open. I figure R might be easier to fill with another book.

88432 Instead of A Red Herring Without Mustard I am going to read The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules A Novel (League of Pensioners) by Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg , the author's last name starts with an I and it is 67.4% yellow so it'll meet yellow 5

88432 Yeah that makes sense. yellow 5 is hard to meet!

88432 I'm going to read A Red Herring Without Mustard (Flavia de Luce, #3) by Alan Bradley , that could apply to yellow 4 (Flavia character) or yellow 5 (Inspector Hewitt character)

Would Inspector Hewitt be accepted as an "I" name?

88432 Oh Myzan, that must have been very scary and stressful. I'm sorry to hear about your son and hope he gets better.
