Please, guys, I'm out of time, could someone add A Man Called Ove in our spreadsheet? I'm reading this one. I will update the blanks ASAP
Sorry everybody for not posting my finished books. I'm trying to get so many things done and just so little time :(
I am keeping the Challenge Spreadsheet updated based off of whatever information is mentioned in the Planning Spreadsheet, so I do encourage everyone to stop by the Planning Spreadsheet and update anything that you havent. We want to count every little book each one of us reads.
Thanks for all your hard work Aproov! I'd be scrambling as I've been busy than I planned lately.I have a book or two to enter this weekend.

works for UNO and March Mini
Scrabble: Starts with H
So, question... what are we doing with scrabble?Are we going to wait until the end of the month to decide are the best words? I'm a crap scrabble player but I can put in some letters into the scrabble cheat like the best of them!
We need to get enough letters to make words that is for sure. Last I looked we only had a couple of letters in the planning sheet.
I'm starting to add my books into the SS. I didn't realize until Apoorv posted that we were supposed to. :(
Also, for the scrabble, are these totally different books or can we use the ones that we've used for Parts 1, 2 or 3? If, so I will need to delete my scrabble books.

No, books can only be used for one of the mini-challenges. Either a team name task or scrabble. They also count towards the normal uno hands still.
GAH! OK, I'll have do some deleting then. *sigh* Sorry if I screwed things up too much Apoorv. I have to erase some scrabbles.
Ok, I've corrected my error. Sorry guys, but I now know going forward that it will be either or.I will concentrate on the first 3 tasks first then look at scrabble.
Hi guys! I'm here too. Sorry I've been silent for a while, haven't had a chance to read much but will try to make the most of this last week of March :)
Elenaaaaaaaaaaaaa.... welcome back! :) :)

Hey everyone!! I hope everyone is well. I'm back from my trip and feel like I may have to have a vacation from my vacation!I've got a few more books to finish over the next few days, but then I'm tapped out.
What about everyone else?
I know that feeling about needing a vacation from your vacation.I would like to have a non-busy day. I think in the last month I've had three days without plans. And at that point you are frazzled.
I have a convention with my daughter next month for an extended weekend. It isn't a vacation for us, we will be busy on the go the whole weekend. Thank goodness I don't go straight back to work the next day since when I put in the vacation request I want sure what out final travel plans would be I padded the request.

That was smart! LOL
Sounds like you've had a really hectic month.
Hey Sass. :-)Of course I'm trying to post all my books and my daughter needed my laptop so now I'm stuck doing what I can on the tablet. LOL

Oh I know that feeling. It should be a thing that whe your done with a vacation that you should have a few extra days to recoup from the vacation. :-)
I still need to post more books and see what's going on with the mini since I haven't even looked at it and don't know what's needed :/
That's great Carmen. We have LOTS of room for the mini. We have lots of scrabble availability and I'm sure we can move other stuff around if we need to as well. Take a look.
Awesome to know Sass :-)

I will Apoorv. :-)
Yay, more books! You guys are awesome!!Apoorv, I updated Rachel's and Babitix's books on the planning spreadsheet for you to add to the official :D
Also I started Naked in Death for March mini and our last color card (if we make it this far :))
Carmen, if you don't have a chance to check out the mini just mark books started on or after March 15 when you add them, we'll have a day and a half to arrange things after the deadline :)
Thanks that's helpful to know. I'll keep adding the start and finished dates since it would help to figure out which would work for the mini challenge
Ok, I've 2 books I'm going to have done. I'm almost done Easy Kisses. It'll either be done tonight or early in the AM. (depending on how kids' homework goes). And then I'll be reading Hot Rocks but I think that'll be a fast one. I know I'll have it done tomorrow.
Hi, all. I'm so sorry I haven't been around this much to give you my books. One crap thing kept happening after another. So, I apologize. However, I wanted to quick give them to you now, if that is okay. Book Completion:

I have everything updated in the spreadsheet and here. I hope, hehehe but I'm currently reading The Hating Game and should be done with it tomorrow.
Yikes, we really need some vowels for the scrabble or we won't have any words.
We have one of Carmen's that can be used for "A".I will try to squeeze in An Event to Remember. . .or Forget - which can be used for E or A, but we only have one A. So we can use Carmen's.
