Good Morning Lulu, question, if I read a book that works for our UNO hands can it also be used for the April Mini, or it works for only one thing ?
Kushmi wrote: "Good Morning Laura, question, if I read a book that works for our UNO hands can it also be used for the April Mini, or it works for only one thing ?"I'm not Laura but you can use books for both the UNO Hands and the April Mini.
I put Neverwhere in the mini under Harry Dresden. You started it after the 15th right?
Alissa wrote: "Lulu can you check this one to see if it has enough green, please?The Last White Knight / 
"Yep. It is over 50%
Lulu wrote: "Kushmi wrote: "Good Morning Laura, question, if I read a book that works for our UNO hands can it also be used for the April Mini, or it works for only one thing ?"I'm not Laura but you can use b..."
Sorry, I saw your name as Laura. Yeap, I started it on 16 April :).
Yay!!! It works for my 3 green and fits for my other challenge so I will be done with my colored books by Thursday hopefully it fits for a mini *fingers crossed*
Alissa wrote: "How was Neverwhere, Kushmi?"Hey Alissa, it was great, I really liked it. Start was a bit slow for me. But after it was awesome. :)
Did anyone read the rough in the dawn? What were your thoughts if you do
I didn't. Did you like it, Anna? It's on my tbr!
At first I found it really hard to get into the names confused me so it took me a while to get used to them and then throw the book there are quite a few words that I didn't understand either but once I really got in bed invested in the characters it was really good I'm actually anxious to pick up the second one other I got a few books at the finish for
Alissa wrote: "Since I asked to be I'm super excited and we have a big group so that's exciting!"Yeah!!
