Annalisa | 1659 comments It looks like we might end up with more books than we need to finish the mini. That is a good place for us to be.

Annalisa | 1659 comments I've updated the spreadsheet. There are three books left, I went ahead and added Pixie's books as As.

Left we have
2 - A
1 - C

Keep in mind we can likely move another book around if your book doesn't fit one of the two letters left.

We have 2 cards left -

1 C
1 A

Is anyone reading something that they will finish that will fit either of these or another letter ( I can see if I can move things around) If I need to read a book I can finish what I'm reading which has a C not sure of an A but if not I'll hold off on finishing for April.

Melissa | 1347 comments April begins at 5AM EST 1st April


message 613: by Melissa (new)

Melissa | 1347 comments I spot checked the Uno Shelves and compared them to what I have on the spreadsheets and there are a couple that doesn't match. If you all could check and see if there are books missing on your shelf or if not, I'll go through the spreadsheet again.

Annalisa - there are 34 books from you on the spreadsheet but only 33 on your shelf.
Elena - 31 books on the spreadsheet but only 30 on your shelf.
Michelle - 73 books on the spreadsheet but only 70 on your shelf.
Sandy - 38 books on the spreadsheet but only 37 on your shelf.

These numbers are from both February and March. You don't need to double check February since we all checked that month already.

I'll keep going through to see if I can find the missing books but I don't know if I'll get that done today or not. :)

Annalisa | 1659 comments I found the missing book and added it to my shelf. Thanks for noticing.

I’m reading a book that fits both A and C. I’ll finish by today or maybe tomorrow.


message 616: by Melissa (new)

Melissa | 1347 comments Thanks Annalisa :)

Thanks Su Ah :) So that leaves us with one more book.


message 617: by Melissa (new)

Melissa | 1347 comments Elena - Your March books are ok so check your Feb books when you get a chance. You are missing one on your shelf.

Sandy - I'm pretty sure your missing book is Four Letter Word. Can you add that to your Uno Shelf when you get a chance?

Michelle - I'm going to check yours now.


message 618: by Melissa (new)

Melissa | 1347 comments Michelle:

These are the books that are missing from your shelf from what I can tell:
To Kill a Mockingbird
Seventh Grave and No Body
Cry Wolf
The Lullaby

It seems as if you have these books on your shelf but I don't have them on the spreadsheet:
The Paragraph Ranch
The Gift

Did you read those 2 books? If so, we won't need to read anymore for this month I'll find a way to make them fit somewhere LOL

Elena  | 419 comments I checked mine and added the missing book - River of Gods - I accidentally added it to 2017 uno shelf :)

I'm reading an A book that I can finish today or hold off if someone else has the spot covered.

Andrea thanks for the reply. I'm not sure we can count it, because not all people are in the same location they chose a time zone and set that as the default for when the months starts. I'm not sure what time zone you are, but for Eastern standard time US it started at 5am. I think we can't count this as an April book as a result. I'll let Melissa weigh in as maybe she saw something I didn't see.
