Hi teamies, another hand finished and moved to the main SS :) WTG!!

Can I just ask that you make sure the actual version of the book you read is the one you add to your Uno shelf. So if you read the audiobook add the audio version not the paperback e.g.

thanks <3

so I finished one book and added to ss yesterday. I am reading two other books which I started this weekend.

Good spot thank you!!

As you’ve already sunk your teeth into it we’ll leave them as they are :) thought I’d ask incase you hadn’t started.
Just typical this months pick was a coloured card that we don’t even need haha.

Robin, my bookclub picked a book that works for 8 yellow. So as I have to read it this month, if you want me to cover the WD4 just let me know. The GR version was blue but when I got to the library to collect my reservation it was very very yellow lol

Nothing yet, imagine we’ll hear the end of this week or the weekend! Hoping for something fun.

You may notice the spreadsheet turning green...this is just so Insiyah and myself can track what we've logged on the official spreadsheet. Yep, were off and running :)
If you want to see the current rankings of the 26 teams you can do so here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/... (also pinned in message 6)

If you cant fit your book anywhere let us know here and we can shift things around to make a free space. Please dont swap any books that are highlighted green without letting us know before hand, I'm easily confused haha!!

Sorry I Missed you were asking because of the MPG. Yes even when its children's, as long as the audio is more than 3 hours we can use it :)

okay so to work out your audiobook, we can use the default edition of the book. I see that its page count is 144 so we can use it regardless of length of audio.

Official stance on audiobooks:

Are audiobooks allowed?
Audiobooks fine. You'll use the page numbers from the default edition to check it meets the challenge requirements.
You can shelve the audiobook edition, or the default edition.

Add them onto the shelf whenever you like, but they do need to be on there when youve finished so we can verify them :)

Robin I’m going to put your question to the mods as I’m at a loss as to the right answer

Sorry Robin, I can only see upto your tagged booked on the app, I’ll jump on the laptop in the morning and read your question. I’ve been in bed since 8.30pm, rock and roll Friday night over here!

Okies I’ll borrow them soon x

Wahooo.

I started the Maze Runner yesterday, didnt get very far but I think it will be a quick read.
