Did I read the rules correctly and no left over banked books can be used for bingo?

Exactly, LaurLa!
Which is why K, V, and I are currently playing with the books and are doing some colourless spell-outs of The Night Circus. We've got one ready to go and a second almost ready.
And then we'll see. Once we're ready to move on to the next word, that's when we'll use all the colour tasks for our current word.
We're trying to clear out the bank as much as possible before the Friday deadline.

I have Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows on audio waiting. We could use that one for the train square (Hogwarts Express)

I went to fill the rest of my book in on the spreadsheet but I read your note that it was done already...lol Wow, that was fast...
Hi girls, I'm in the airport on my layover Atlanta on my way to Jamaica. To bad Curran can't meet me here. Lol.
Bingo sounds crazy. I'm use to it though.
I'll take mittens. I can read my hockey romance
Completed TruthwitchI didn't get a chance to add my completion of The Surgeon to the SS and I don't see it in banked books. Should I add it now?

You know what I just realised?
Friday, i.e. the deadline, is tomorrow.
Sometimes bank holidays are not a good thing, they completely screw with my sense of time. But hooray, TGIF soon ;-)

So do we know what pattern we want to do? I will for sure finish The Surgeon by tomorrow night and I was just wondering what I should look for to start Saturday.
Now, I'll be off to bed and K will keep watch over last minute developments for the last spell-out of The Night Circus.
YOUR job for the rest of the day is to keep your fingers crossed that we're getting an awesome last word with fantastic colour tasks so that we can rock that thing before the deadline tomorrow ;-)
G'night!

Ah no, pattern hasn't been decided yet. Nobody stated any preferences yet either.
We might just go for a black-out first time around.
Basically in that case I'd suggest picking a square you know you have something to read for, and then we'll go from there.
Is there a particular square you'd like to snag?

I'm sure you'll find something! :-)
And since the pictures are somewhat flexible on interpretation... that can be a big help!

I'm not sure how those patterns work. So after you choose a pattern do you complete it then earn that 'prize' to use later?

Bummer, do we still need a green book then??

I'm reading our last book needed to submit another word and request new. We don't know if we'll have time to complete but what the heck! If anyone has a pink cover book done before me - I will be happy to use it!
Here is the link to the LOVELY COLOR EXTRACTOR if anyone is interested in checking out the pinkness of their reads! :)
I'm back home, so use me as needed for any book needs :DHubby is out, so it's just me and the kindle!
We had a super hard time finding a pink book that worked using that dang color extractor. (60%+)I'm reading Colleen Hoover's "It Ends With Us" which worked and I have and I am excited to read. It's just that it's 11 hour audio so may not finish it until laaaaate...
Let me know K, I have a pink book that's 180 pages, fairly short if you don't want to spend that much time
For BINGO...I really need to read Royal Assassin
...which could be three word title or 2nd in series.Been holding off on the longer books for Wheelathon...

I think we have to do the bonus for the last submission of the word... so it would be with the bonus... BUT, I think we have some Milon boosts we could probably apply towards what we don't have...Since the books don't carry over, I'm going through the spreadsheet now to see what we have covered...
Amazingly, I believe we are in pretty good shape for this long shot last word! I've added all books except for one... and we need an 'L'.
I haven't looked for 'pink' or 'brown' in the text yet either but surely it's there somewhere in our pile o' books... and we have 18 hours to get that fleshed out. :)
Heading to bed now.. maybe will start on an "L" book if I can find something to go to sleep to...
Hey girls, I'm winding down here but wanted to put some choices in for books while I'm coherent. Lol.2nd in a series:Don't Twunk With My Heart
Title starts with B:Blind Date
