Welcome Jean!
Hello and welcome to Team Luna!I’m Danielle (she/her) and I’m from Wales. I’m the captain for this UNO. This is my 8th time playing, and I’ve only missed the first year it was played. It’s nice every to start the new year off with a fun, less pressure challenge, I find anyway!
I’m looking forward to playing this round and reading some good books, hopefully!
I read mostly romance and fantasy books. I do read some mystery and sci-fi also. I’m generally a mood reader and like challenges to help pick books. I’m in the middle of rereading the In Death books. My plan this year is to catch up on some big fantasy series I’ve gotten behind on.
Here’s my uno shelf - uno
If you have questions, don’t be afraid to ask them :)
If you can please introduce yourself and link your UNO shelf, that would be great!

Team Luna MothRULES
— books must be started after the countdown
• (9am 1st Feb London; 4am 1st Feb US East Coast)
https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown...
— books must be 101 pages and over
• verified as over 25,000 words (arbookfind sites) or 3 hours of audio (audible) for
Children's books, Graphic Novels, Manga, Cook Books, Plays and Poetry
— check in with the team at least one a week
• that way we know you’re still actively participating. It doesn’t need to be more than a quick hello
TRACKING
— planning sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
• Add your books, with a hyperlink to the edition you’re reading
• Add reason it fits for all cards it works for that way we can place your book in the best spot or do some shuffling
• make sure it is on your UNO shelf with a read date
— completion post
• if you’re using spreadsheet, no need for full post. Just a quick post with finished [book] is always nice.
• if not adding to sheet, then a complete post is needed with all relevant info
COLOUR COVERS
— Covers have to be 50% or more the required colour.
we’ll be using our eyes and common sense for this. (No outside website)
if there's consensus on colour, we’ll use.
if not, then we won't use it for a colour card
— Possibilities for Colour Cards
• These lists might be helpful to find some colour covers and been used in past UNOs.
🟨 Yellow Covers
🟩 Green Covers
🟦 Blue Covers
🟥 Red Covers
— NOTE: just because a book is on the list doesn't mean it is actually valid to use (anyone can add books to the list). Also, we have to use the edition that we read. Some books on this list may not seem like the colour cover, this is because GR will show the default version. There may be an edition that has been shelved that is the actual colour. But again, you need to read the edition with the colour cover, so make sure you double check.
CARDS
— colour cards are the only cards that can be claimed
the rest will be filled in as needed by the captains.
— Quick Reference for Cards
• Zero (Z), One (O), Two (T), Three (H), Four (F), Five (I), Six (S), Seven (V), Eight (E), Nine (N), Skip (K/P), Reverse (book a team member has read)
• Title of first word (use or ignore articles), Author Name (first or last), Character Names (first or last) and Place Settings, used for above letters
— NOTE:
• Characters need to have a speaking role and some meaning to story.
• non-fiction books don't (usually) have characters. So will typically be used for title, author or standalone only
• place needs to be the main setting of book

📘 Favourite Fictional Relationship (Romantic or Otherwise)Lan and Nynaeve from Wheel of Time
📗 A book(s) everyone (including friends) seems to love, but you ended up disliking (hating) it
Harry Potter series. It took many attempts to read the first and I just didn’t like it. Read the second and third book, but I didn’t enjoy. I haven’t read the rest and I don’t plan to either.
📒 A Book(s) You Feel Guilty About Liking
No, read and enjoy the books you want
📕 Any books/authors that you feel you should really try, but have never got round to reading yet
N.K. Jemisin
Looking forward to another UNO, been playing since 2016.
Congrats!
Excellent!To those playing Tower has fun. See you in challenges in the future.
Glad you enjoyed it. I hope everyone else had fun too :)
Excellent job team!
No, sorry if the post made it look like like. There were some missing words at the end :) An overload (purple) that Snezana is reading
That’s the mini done. Just one more book (Snezana’s purple - Aurora Blazing) for the hands to get everything done.
Excellent.
It’s ends this month.

I have one that will cover that 1
