Silje (sikna) | 908 comments And apparently this A Shiver of Light (Merry Gentry #9) by Laurell K. Hamilton is more orange than yellow, but if the MODs can overrule that, it will work for Yellow 9 since it's the 9th book in the series.

Jennifer J. | 561 comments Wonderful! Did you ask the MODs or do you want me to?


message 1003: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer J. | 561 comments Does anyone know of a good book where the MC is a singer? I have one that I tried starting a couple years ago by Jodi Picoult and just couldn't get into it so I'm hoping for something more exciting.

Lick (Stage Dive, #1) by Kylie Scott

You do like romance, right?


message 1008: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer J. | 561 comments As long as it's not sappy rose colored glasses romance :-p


message 1009: by Nichole (new)

Nichole | 620 comments Not sappy, at least not that I recall. Funny, yes. Smexy times, yes. Angsty, a little. But you get to meet Mal in book 1 and he's my top book boyfriend because he's crazy :)

Maybe V and K~Terror will have other suggestions but I know they would also pick Stage Dive, lol. We fangirl over Kylie Scott!

Looks like the vote is orange in the Captain's group as well..=(


message 1019: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer J. | 561 comments Oh well...it will still work for a regular card.


message 1020: by Andrea (new)

Andrea (dreakay) | 192 comments If Silje's Blue 1 doesn't work, I'm planning on reading Carve the Mark (Carve the Mark, #1) by Veronica Roth first thing in April. Is that Blue enough? How do you tell? Looks like it's going to be another series so that would work for 1 as it's the first book.


message 1021: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer J. | 561 comments It shows 94.2% blue. We are supposed to use TinEye Color Extractor

I entered it into our April reading list and noted it's blue :-)

Andrea (dreakay) | 192 comments Wow that's so awesome that such a tool exists! I had been wondering where your guys' exact percentages were coming from haha

message 1027: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 506 comments YAY!!!!!

Is that our last book for March-mini?


message 1028: by Silje (last edited Mar 30, 2017 11:30AM) (new)

Silje (sikna) | 908 comments Is it just my competitive spirit talking, or is it slightly unfair that some teams don't have the possibility to win, even though they've done all cards and challenges, simply because other teams can get a higher score with their cards? (and do so every month?)

I know it's just for fun and having a good time, but still...=P


message 1029: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 506 comments LOL! Nope - I agree! I kept thinking that we were due a good hand... but no... ...sigh.... ;)


message 1030: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer J. | 561 comments I absolutely agree!! I'm very competitive too and it's probably going to be a little difficult for me to be too ambitious next month but I'm going to keep plugging along hoping for something with the April mini-challenge that will give us a fighting chance. Otherwise I don't know if I'm going to bother with this challenge again because why bother if you can't win. And yes I understand it's just for fun but I have a lot more fun when I have a chance of winning ;-P

Same here! I already have more books on my uno2017 shelf after these two months than I did for the entire uno challenge last year.

WHAT!? Are you serious??


message 1045: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer J. | 561 comments Yeaup! Actually as long as it was started after Feb 1st it can count. I asked bcz I have a book I started right before the Feb mini that I still haven't finished and the MODs said it will still work.


message 1046: by Andrea (new)

Andrea (dreakay) | 192 comments Wow that's awesome, kinda wish I knew it earlier haha. I waited until today to start the book I'm reading. Thought for a second you might be trying to pull an April Fools :P
