I'm waiting patiently for my library to get a copy of Adèle - it had her first book really quickly after it was published..."

Sorry this is a bit later, this is my first chance to sit down!

Let me know what you think of Adele when it finally arrives!

I agree, the main one I go to is once a month so plenty of time for everyone to read the book. The next one is the Silent Patient which I'm really looking forward to.

Hello everyone, I'm Rachael and I'm from Birmingham UK. I've been playing UNO for a few years and have been a Captain for the last two years. I now work two jobs so unfortunately don't have the time to put into captaincy but will be a willing participant this year instead. I like seeing all the different books people read as it gives me ideas for what to add to my TBR pile. I read any genre and attend a book club so push a lot of books onto people! The last one was Adele by Leila Slimani which proved to be a very interesting discussion! My shelf name is correct. I'll have a look and see what colours I could read.

Hurray! Spreadsheet up to date and everything has been completed. Well done everyone

Two more reverses to go! :D

I've shifted around a few books so now all that's left is:

3 yellow (which Katie is reading)
Three reverse cards
1 yellow

Also for the mini challenge we have left:

1A* read a book with a phone on the cover
2A* read a book with a police car, officer, or station on the cover
3A* read a book with phone, telephone, call, or police in the title

13A2*: read a book with a person (head-toe) on the cover

25A2ba*: Connect a book to book #3 in the series of your team name
26A2ba*: Connect a book to book #4 in the series of your team name
27A2ba*: Connect a book to book #5 in the series of your team name

This is listed in order of priority as we don't get the later points if we don't complete the earlier challenges

I've still got a couple of your books from the spreadsheet to add so it will change it a little bit but just to let you know we still have:

3 yellow
Reverse x 4
1
5
Skip
2 yellow and skip (needs to be for the same book)

I'll log some more tonight

Hi all, I'm going to see if I can move a few books around but as it stands we still need for the main challenge:

Two 1's
One 1 yellow
One 2
One 2 yellow
One 3 yellow
One 4
One 5
Two 7's
Two 9's
Three Skips
Four reverses
Two Wild draw 4's

Also anyone spoken to Filipa? Not heard from her this month

Liz can you mark Othello as read and put it on your Uno shelf please?

Have you all seen the April mini challenge? Anyone have a preference as to whether we do the A stream or the B stream?

Ashley what do you mean by NN?

Nearly finished the March main challenge!

All that's left is:

Reverse x 4
5 x 1
1 x 2
5 green x 1

Have you seen that we are one of the criminal teams for the mini challenge?

Tineye is what I used. Did you press to include the background colour?

I checked and it's 62% yellow

Turbo twenty three? It's blue but it doesn't fit 7 blue so we can't use it for a blue card

Yes you get them for the two cards but if we'd had another number card instead of a draw 2 we would've got another 20 instead of 0

It also means we get less points as you don't get any points for a draw 2 card

Oh no, have you seen how many draw 2's we have? :(

You were closer to the correct answer
