They were pretty cute and really fast reads. Or rather, listens. They're narrated by David Tennant and only like 3 hours long.

All right, I found a few books that I can perhaps read over the weekend that will work for this mini challenge :-)
Great! I'm starting another one for the published part. I might be able to squeeze in one more after that... maybe.
Uggg..they are killing me, I just raided their shelves....and I found Romance and YA????!!!!!!!Have no idea how to find one published in February, let alone one not is not published in February.
Which romance book one the list has little or no romance at all?
Abbie both the books I might read our thriller, sorry I'm on the app so I can't link but The Couple Nextdoor Laura added this today, and then Evelyn Ever After also read by Laura :-)
I thought they had to be read by them?I have The Butterfly garden, but I have it in ebook form, so I might. But I just wanted to find an audio for work tomorrow.
Behind Closed door I read months ago, super good!
They have to be on their Read shelf for the Published in February but the other set is Read or Added in February
There are some Fantasy too, if you're interested in those?I'm going to try and squeeze in Behind Closed Doors even though it's the BoTM for March. I already had it checked out!
Ask and ye shall receive! From Laura's shelfRead or Added
Published
- haha, jk :)
....The Published in February and from their Read shelf is the hardest one. I'm listening to one right now but I'm so over YA I can't even... I like it but I've passed my quota for the month.
So this reminds me, for those of you that I sent a list to... you might want to double check if they are on their Read shelf. I think I payed attention to that but ..uh.. I might have made a mistake!*** For the Published ones only***
Thanks girl! There are a few more on that above list I have and have not read yet, wish one of them was tag mythology, LOL!
I know! I had a heck of a time with that one. I decided to wait and read it next week, lol. I'm reading
I got lucky and a book I had to read was tagged mythology this week -
And so was this back up book which wasn't too bad. But it's YA
Have you guys read any of those Greg Isle books? I don't think I've read his yet but have been eyeing them. They look good.
V & I just read
and liked. Definitely an interesting (unusual?) psychological thriller.
might be my favorite Lisa Unger book. :)
Countdown Clock!
4 days, 10 hours, 16 minutes left of February Uno!
We still have 17 open tasks for the Mini challenge. Can it be done??
I'll finish one tonight for Published and then I'll see if I can find any shorter books that I can squeeze in before the end. I might have to do some more browsing!
Okay, things are updated! I'll be leaving in a couple of hours so I should probably get our things packed, lol.Try to behave! :)
Have a fun trip :-) I will try to finish at least a couple that will work for this mini challenge, started the first book last night :-)
How is everyone doing? We have been unusually quiet this weekend, I will have a couple books for the mini challenge to post tomorrow, finished one already, but I will just post them at the same time :-)Hope you are all having a fabulous weekend, anybody watching the Academy Awards?
I'm half watching the Oscars, half looking at tattoos on Pinterest. I haven't even picked up a book in the last couple days, I've been so busy. Now I'm kind of just waiting for March to choose my next one for the challenges I'm in :P
We all just cannot function without you, LOL I have a couple books to post later, almost finished with my second, not my favorite book I've ever read, unfortunately... although the first was fabulous, what numbers and colors do we need to be looking for for the next challenge?

So, I did a tracking spreadsheet for February just in case I needed to move things around. I've never played so I wasn't sure if we would finish or just need to make any changes. It turns out that We Rock and it was a waste of time. Sooo.. I'm not going to bother with one anymore. Thank you for that :)I will let you know what cards we had the fewest of though, because I think we should concentrate on those first. Or at least I will on the Spreadsheet.
We had the fewest for 5, 7, and Reverse. We also have those color cards in this round too. I need to look through my books and see what I have to fit and can hopefully work in, if needed.
Does anyone have any questions or comments about anything?

I have a couple books to post, I will do it in a little bit I'm in the middle of updating everything :-)
I might possibly finish Moon Called (read by Laura) by tomorrow night for another 8 points. What is the official cut off time? I'm PST so if it's east coast or central I'll have to make sure to get it done in time. I'm at 40% finished right now and I'm headed to bed to listen to it. Should be able to get a few more hours finished tonight and then finish it off tomorrow.
Countdown Clock!
19 hours, 25 minutes... from this point!
If you have any books going that you were planning to use for February, now is the time to finish them up!
I will have another 2 (short books) finished tonight. I've read way over my goal this month! Of course, I had a lot of short books that I wouldn't have otherwise read. I'm ready for March to begin and to get back to MY books :)I went through and found a few books for the color cards, but we have 3 Yellow cards and those were the hardest to find :( I still need to look for some of those.
Nichole thank you for reading all those books for us! If I weren't in so many other challenges I would've picked up a few more myself :-)I'll look through my books for some yellow covers :-)
I couldn't get any of the ones Laura had read. By the time I got one, I knew there was no way I could have it done by the first.However, I am still going to read it...it will just count towards our March books.

Same here. So many challenges, it's a sickness sometimes I think lol. that or a challenge in it's self to see how many I can do at once.
It's not yellow enough, Carrie. TinEye is very harsh, in my opinion, on the colors. I know I checked several that I thought were no brainers and they came out with something entirely different. We can get a second opinion in the Captains group if it's really close though. If you want to check any books, it is supposed to be done through TinEye Color Extractor. Or you can post your books here and I'll check it when I get a chance :)
