Yes. I start and I don't want to put them down. Joe was such a sweetheart. I just wish the characters matched up with the cards a little better, lol. I will probably start the next one in a day or so and we need 3's so that is good.

Lulu (lulufritz) | 704 comments How are you liking Blood Bound?

When did you first read Perfect Cover?
If you started either book on or after the 15th we can use it for the mini. Depending on when you finish Twisted Up it should probably fit in one of the hands

Anna (annasweetrose) | 178 comments I started perfect cover today and I believe I started with that yesterday Don't know when I'm gonna finish than that I will keep you posted

Laura Hey everyone, we need a little update from you all to see how we are doing as there are only 11 days until the end of March and we want to finish all of our hands :-)

Kushmi are you almost finished with Inkheart? Alissa will you finish your 3 green on time? Avni are you almost finished with exams that you are able to finish off the books you said you could read for the March mini?

I'm working on Ove for the March mini, Alissa has a few books she is working on . Lulu finished hers and has been working hard on the scrabble, Brittany has been helping with the scavenger hunt names ( we have two left to find!!!)

We can definitely do it! We are doing great. Keep up the awesome work team!
