I agree with you Christine. I read Watership Down a few years ago, and I was disappointed. I kept hoping it would get better, but it didn't. It wasn't a children's story because it was a little to violent, but it also was an adult novel. In the end, I think it is a novel that will appeal more to a male audience that the female.

sorry. forgot. updated.

Ah that's a shame to hear Christine and Annalisa. Maybe I did good in not getting to it in ages ;-)

I'm reading the last 20 pages of Spider's Bite just now and that'll be it for me for Uno.
Also, I will not be around tomorrow on our last day of the challenge, so the last updates will be made by Annika on her lonesome. ;-)
You were a great team and I hope you enjoyed Uno!! :-D

I've started a book that has a pot & pan on the cover. I'm hoping to get it completed.

Chris, it's funny you said that about Watership Down. I absolutely loved it as a middle-schooler, but when I tried it as an adult, I just couldn't do it! I'm almost afraid to try rereading The Hobbit!

The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
531 pages
4 stars
Hand 15, Red 5 card
And I believe this completes our regular hand for April!
Yaaaayyy!



I have words: flower, eggs, and petal. And letters: h Hellen, r Rhys, k Kathleen, c Carys, a Albion Vance, b Lady Berwick, p Pandora.
The Book also has a mostly white cover.
If needed I will go back and get the pages and sentence for the words but I didn't want to hunt for them if they weren't necessary.

We can always switch books around :D

Believe it or no, but we managed all tasks but 6 in the mini-challenge! :D
Now we can just sit back, relax and reload for the next challenge!


Elderwen and Annika - you were SuperCaptains. You guys did such an awesome job! Thanks for all your hard work for us!!!

I just checked the speadsheet and I'm not sure why but it says we only finished 14 hands in April and I think we finished all 15.



Thanks for catching that :)


Thanks everyone for being such a great team!
