I have read Illuminae in January, if you still need a reverse card!

[Ana]

And for the last card 4, I finished "Le Fils du Pauvre" by Mouloud Ferraoun :)

[Paula]

awesome!
we still need a yellow card 0 or 2. A season for fireflies read by Ashley can be used for any of them, I believe. I'd read it too ( A season for fireflies) but I'd have to buy the ebook and I can't right now.
So, is anyone reading a yellow book? I've been looking for one, but can't find it in my tbr, any suggestions?

[Andrea]

I can read the second rebel belle book , it's a yellow cover !

[Paula]

Thanks Andrea, but I checked it on labs.tineye.com and it's not coming out as yellow enough u.u but we still need another 2, so if you want to read it we can still use it :)

[Louise]

Just to give everyone a heads up. I am going away tomorrow until Friday. I'm not sure what my internet access is going to be like but will update as and when I can. Thank you Paula and Ashley for keeping everything running smoothly.

[Paula]

Thanks Louise for the heads up =)

Has anyone found a yellow cover? x.x
you can check on how yellow a cover is in: http://labs.tineye.com/ if no one finds a yellow cover, I'l try to read A season for fireflies

[Louise]

I'm taking with me

[Paula]

I'm a little confused, we still need two yellow cards:
1 yellow
2 yellow

are you reading for both of them Louise? Because you said you were reading The Last Goodbye for 1 yellow, right?
And The Last Olympian works for 2 yellow?

[Paula]

We're pretty close to the end of the month and we have very little cards left =)

So here's what we need:

Part 1 is complete too =)

[Andrea]

What parts of the mini challenge do we still need

[Paula]

none, we can gain more points if we do more words for scrabble:

Scrabble
Create a word using the first and last letter of the team names - which words you use is up to the team - but they must be at least 4 letters long.
Read one book per letter of that word for 5 points per letter.
- 4p bonus for completed words with 7 or more letters
- 2p bonus for completed words with 5-6 letters

You can only get points for one partially finished word, i.e. if you by the end of the month have more than 1 incomplete words, you will only get 5p/book for the first word.

Example, PYRES (Yvaine is Y,E ; Buttercup is P, Kate Daniels is S, Rose Hathaway for R). Teams can complete this task more than once by creating new words, but you can't re-use letters already used.

Normal "spell-it-out" rules apply. i.e. Letter needs to be the first letter in the book title, author first name or surname, character name or nickname, or setting. Articles (a/an/the) can be ignored in the book titles. For this spell-it-out, you can also use the first letter in the series name.

[Andrea]
