I'm gonna read Ready Player One (Ready Player One, #1) by Ernest Cline Ready Player One by Ernest Cline next and it fits the yellow card (57.1%), but I'm not sure if it fits the 7.

I'm almost done with It Happened One Autumn (Wallflowers, #2) by Lisa Kleypas

Sorry its taking me so long - work (doing taxes) is intruding on my reading time!


message 558: by Annalisa (new)

Annalisa | 1659 comments That's fine Sandy. I'll not worry about the Wild Draw 4s then and focus on another book.

We are very close to having the Hands for the month covered. And we are about half way done with the mini for the month.

We only need the two Wild Draw 4 cards to complete the hands for the month. From now on unless you are reading one of the two books for WD4 you only need to post for the Mini.

Has anyone come across a Y as they are reading?

I'm also working on a color card book. It's not very good so it's been slow reading but I'll get it done. It will fit a 7 Green. If we need it we'll have it.

Annalisa | 1659 comments @Melissa don't forget to add your book from last week. I think it was for the Q.

@Sandy when you get a chance can you post the completion notice for your red book?

Everyone please make sure all your books have been added to you Uno shelf for this month.

Uno hands for April are up. There are a lot of blue colored cards. I think I can cover at least one of those with one of my books.

I'm updating to here.

Please make sure, like Annalisa said, that all of your books are on the spreadsheet correctly and on your Uno shelf. I'll go through today and spot check to make sure and let everyone know if I see problems.

We did so awesome this round! Only 18 books left to read!! I know we can do it. :)

Melissa | 1347 comments I've updated the April tab (Annalisa, I had to make the colored cards brighter - better for my horrible eyesight to see LOL)

We have quite a bit of colored cards so if we could start to claim those that'd be great.


message 579: by Annalisa (new)

Annalisa | 1659 comments Brighter is better for finding the colored cards. I was having trouble looking at it on my phone.

I'll claim a few colored cards when I get home and have my books in front of me.

Annalisa | 1659 comments For next month colored cards I have:

The Stars Are Fire by Anita Shreve It works for a red 6.
One Little Sin (MacLachlan Family, #2) by Liz Carlyle It works for a red 1
The Orphan Queen (The Orphan Queen, #1) by Jodi Meadows For a Blue but not sure it works for 3, 6, or 8.

That's what I currently have on hand. I am not sure I will read all of these books or not. I can read for at least 2 colored cards


message 594: by Annalisa (new)

Annalisa | 1659 comments updated

Only 10 books left to finish the mini challenge, and that is actually 8 books since we have 2 from Uno Pixie. We are doing very well. I think I will likely finish 2 of the 3 books I'm currently reading. However, if we finish the mini before I finish my books I'll wait until April to finish my books.
