Whatcha gonna read next? I'm debating to read Moon Called since it came in last night from my Overdrive. ( while I wait for How to Train Your Dragon to come in)

[Alissa]

I'm going to read sleeping beauty from Cecily's list so it fits for the mini challenge and works for another challenge I'm in.

[Brittany]

No they are love stories where the characters fall in love that's about it

[Alissa]

Moon Called was really good!! the only reason i didn't start the next one was to try and read the ones I put on the planning s/s :)

I've taken a couple off for me already and replaced them with others! I find it difficult to plan that far ahead. I could start a great series like the chronicles of Kerrigan and want to keep going with it! Too bad I cant find it anywhere but on kindle.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT (from the mods)

Now that you all have the hang of the game, we are ready to turn things up a notch in March!

For those that played last year you may remember that each month we increase the number of hands. So for March you have Fourteen hands.

We have also added in an extra element for March.
As UNO number cards are coloured Blue, Green, Red and Yellow, we have added eight new cards to each team that have a colour attached. So, for example, rather than receiving card "7", you may see it says " 7 Green". This means you need to find a book that not only matches the criteria for 7, but also has a colour cover of green (the cover should be more than 50% green - use this colour extrator tool to determine colours if you are unsure).

As these are very special cards they are worth 30 points. You will find 1 of these cards in hands 2,4,6,8,10,12 and and 2 more in your last hand. Think of it as an incentive to finish all those books! :)

Your spreadsheets have been updated.

Click here for a Countdown to the start of March.


Main cities, FYI:
Sydney: 7pm, 1st March
Tokyo: 5pm, 1st March
London: 8am, 1st March
New York: 3am, 1st March
San Francisco: Midnight, 1st March

Hey Guys, I am seriously been no help. Very sorry. The Invisible Man is quite slow and dreary, I am trying to finish it, but not having the best of times.

So thought to start one for the mini challenge since that has a deadline and it would give me a break from The Invisible Man. So going to read The Perks Of Been A Wallflower, hopefully no one has chosen that already.
