Hi Rachael. I noticed you entered My Not So Perfect Life for scrabble. But it can also be used for part1 of mini challenge. Since Kinsella is author for one other team. Or maybe you have some strategy where we focus on scrabble first?
Let me know so I know which books to pick. :)

Hi Marie, can you mark this as Read please
Can we please concentrate on Five's please. We have a few quite early on and it's blocking us from completing the hands.Also if any one can get a H or N we can complete Hastens
The book I am reading now The Invisible Library will count for a 5 , I also have The Illustrated Man on hold at the Library and will get it done this month as long as it comes in soon which also works for 5Edited to add that The Illustrated Man was downloaded to my Kindle so I will definitely read that one next which gives us 2 number 5 cards.
I also have a book that I hope to read for 7 - The Bear and the Nightingale - there is a character whose name begins with a V . I am next in line from the Library so I bet I get it this week.If neither of those are available by the time I finish my current book I have a copy of The Snow Child which is another book that works for 5. 8-)
