Hehehee... and that is fantastico!!

[Jennifer]

Well I just read a book where the guy refers to the heroine as "classy pussy" :D

[Eldarwen]

Was that supposed to be a compliment? ;-)

[Eldarwen]

Our May hands are online if you're curious :-)

I'll go through them in a bit and post the usual mini update thingy for an overview of the more difficult cards.

[Eldarwen]

For the really easy stuff, we have six Wild / Wild Draw 4 cards, which we'll leave until the end as per usual.

We have seven Reverse cards, which should be doable without too much hassle.

We also have seven Skip cards, and six (normal) 7 cards.

Draw 2 cards : 8
Hand Three: two Draw 2 cards
-> to be paired with: Skip, 3, 6, 8, 6 already covered

Hand Eight: one Draw 2 card
-> to be paired with: 3, 2, 2, 9, reverse, 7 already covered

Hand Nine: one Draw 2 card
-> to be paired with: 7 green, 3, 1, 2, 5, 7 already covered

Hand Ten: two Draw 2 cards
-> to be paired with: 9, 3, 4, 0, 4

Hand Eleven: one Draw 2 card
-> to be paired with: 8, 5, Skip, Reverse, Skip, 7

Hand Twelve: one Draw 2 card
-> to be paired with: 8, 6 green, 8, 1, 4, 7

Colours :
Hand Two: 1 Green
Hand Four: 2 Red
Hand Nine: 7 Green
Hand Twelve: 6 Green
Hand Fourteen: 6 Yellow, 1 Red, 5 Green

Those colour ones are hard.

This green enough ?

[Eldarwen]

Hmm.... I think there might be too many other colours in there for it to be really green, sorry.

[✿~Danielle~✿]

That's fine. I will be reading anyway so will work for another spot. I thought it would not work for green but thought ask anyway as colours are hard to determine, unless it's a full block of colour.

[Eldarwen]

Ok, so the books I have - in theory - planned to read next month are the following:


And of course none of them have colours we need ;-)

Edit: I've used Bold Tricks and Twice Tempted to cover 2 Draw 2 cards - 7 and reverse, for one of them.

Mmmhh, some of the covers aren't easily to define. And opinions often vary greatly as well, which doesn't help matters hehe.

Oh you're on book 3 already in the Talon series. I assume that means it's a good one? I still haven't gotten around to reading the first one though I've had it for a while. Might try and fit it in this month since it has a lovely red cover ;-)

[Pepperpots]

I've just finished Lexicon if that can be used to fill any hands etc :)

[Eldarwen]

Hands are all done for April! :-D

We only have one Bingo category left, with either food on the cover or a chef as a character. Is there a chef in your book by any chance?? You never know what might be hidden inside those pages hehe.

Otherwise, I'll be done with tomorrow where one of the characters is a cook.

[Pepperpots]

no chef or anything cooking related, sorry :(

[Eldarwen]

Hehe ok, thanks! :-)

[Eldarwen]

Countdown until May

[Eldarwen]

Ah I just remembered that I also want to read next month which is #2 in a series and red :-)

How it fits: hand 10 (finally!)

You know, I really-really-really liked it!
Loved the created world and all the creatures. The whole story and also the end was so promising that I already ordered the 2nd book in series. I think this was the first time I read about werewolves (I love vampires more) and I'm so glad you all talked about this book, which made me read it! Thanks! :)

[Eldarwen]

Yay! So glad you liked it! Welcome in the Mercy Thompson world :-) You have 8 more books to go and a side series called Alpha & Omega :-) Enjoy ;-)

[Eldarwen]

I finished late last night, which finishes off our Bingo.

We're done! Well done everyone!! :-D

[Eldarwen]

And now... May cards await ;-)
And hopefully another mini challenge hehe.

[Elinaly]

Way to go team!


We are awesome! ;)

[Eldarwen]

[✿~Danielle~✿]

Well done team! Let's do just as well in May :)

[Jennifer]

I probably asked this before butnis it books finished in May or started in May?

[Silje]

Finished in May I believe (anyone correct me if I'm wrong=) ).

[Eldarwen]

Nope, that's correct, Silje :-)
Of course, started after March 1st, but otherwise finished in May is fine.

[Jennifer]

Cool :)

Hahaha! I'm reading that just now, Danielle :-)

[✿~Danielle~✿]

Are you enjoying? I love this series, so I'm going to reread them before the new one next month.

[Eldarwen]

First time for me, and I've had the first book sitting on my shelf for ages. I found book 8 and 9 while secondhand shopping ages ago and bought them as well but I'm not sure if the books have to be or should be read in order?

I'm really enjoying this book so far. It has an interesting view on the world, especially the Psy are quite fascinating. I'm about a third through already and I've only just started today. And I actually wanted to take a bit of a reading break today after reading almost non-stop this weekend for Carnies.
Lucas and Sascha are intriguing characters.

[✿~Danielle~✿]

I'm glad you are liking. It is a very interesting world and the character are really great too.

And that takes care of our last Draw 2 card, thanks! :-)

Really enjoyed it!

Do the other characters mentioned in this book reappear in future books? Or are all the books completely individual from one another?

Edit: Oh nevermind, I just went to add the second book to my TBR and Vaughn is in it :-)
