Carrie  (icanhasbooks) | 143 comments So I'm a tad confused lol.

So we need to read 6,6,1 before the the reverse card right?

Edit: Also who ever reads the reverse they have to read what 6 or 1 or do they need to read the same book that has been read?


message 109: by Ghost in the Stacks (last edited Jan 28, 2017 03:20AM) (new)

Ghost in the Stacks No, they can be read in any order.

Our captain wanted us all to pick one card from hand one to start with. After that you can fill in any card from any hand.

The Reverse is already claimed by Berit, so we still have 2 sixes, 2 ones, and 1 five, open for you to claim.


Ghost in the Stacks The Reverse card is not like the real Uno game. It just means that someone has to read a book that another member on our team has already read.

Carrie  (icanhasbooks) | 143 comments Ok thank you. I asked this in another thread waiting for an answer, do you know if re-reads are ok?


Ghost in the Stacks I will have to look into that, I am not 100% sure.

Where did you ask the question?


message 113: by Carrie (new)

Carrie  (icanhasbooks) | 143 comments In the questions thread :)


message 114: by Carrie (new)

Carrie  (icanhasbooks) | 143 comments I found out that re-reads are fine as long as it's been 6 months since you've read the book last.

I can do any number.


message 115: by Aricia (new)

Aricia (autumnaleaves) | 104 comments I've got a book that fits for Six that I'm aiming to read, so if it's not too much trouble, I'll do a Six.

Yes, I found this out earlier, but got busy and work and hadn't been able to stop by.

I have one fitting for 6 on my phone if you want to give me the other 6.


Ghost in the Stacks Sure Carrie, You can take the other Six


Ghost in the Stacks Joe, do you prefer #1 or #5?

message 131: by Ghost in the Stacks (last edited Jan 28, 2017 03:21AM) (new)

Ghost in the Stacks Okay, all but a six is taken, so they first person to finish their book can take it to finish hand one, and then everyone can work on any hand and card they want to after that.

Abbie I was doing 6, you have me listed for nothing for this hand.

Nichole | 620 comments It's getting closer!!! Just a few more days!! I'm getting antsy and ready to start. Does anyone have anything fun going on this weekend? I'm a big homebody, so we will just be doing chores around the house. Fun times!! I'm sure I will also do a little bit of gaming, I play WoW very casually. And of course, I need to finish up my book before the game starts!

Just for Fun!

Nichole | 620 comments I was beginning to think this quiz was rigged, lol! I tested it though. We are all just wonderful people :) Except for Berit, that is....

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) I didn't actually take the test, I just wanted to be a snake :-) I'll do it when I'm not on the app, I can't get the link off the app :-(

Jose (josemagical) | 23 comments hehehehe


message 147: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 92 comments LOL, Berit! I'm an elephant. I don't feel like much of an elephant but they are one of my favourite animals! When I was in Thailand I went to an Elephant rescue sanctuary and gave some elephants a bath! One of the best experiences of my life!

This weekend is a jam packed weekend for me. My dad and brother are in town because it's my uncle's celebration of life this afternoon. We are just waiting for my mom to get home from a walk and we are going to go for breakfast. Then back home to hang out until the service and then??? Probably dinner at one of the Aunties houses.

Then tomorrow morning we all have to go to my uncles house and pick out what we want (which most of the cousins find tacky and uncomfortable). After that I get to go to a baby shower for one of my high school best friends! I'm going to need some baby cuddles! And then after that I'm headed over to my Gramma's house because tomorrow is her 90th birthday!

I'm tired just writing all that out! Usually my weekends consist of working Saturday day shift, relaxing Saturday night, and then going for a hike with my boyfriend on Sunday.


Ghost in the Stacks It is rigged! I got Dolphin too....
