Forgot to update that I’m reading The Grace of Kings! Almost finished. Will post in the morning on what cards this can cover, and I’m thinking it’ll be a lot. Tons of characters and locations through the story.

Hi Maddy, welcome to the team. I think we have been on a team challenge before together. Your replacing a drop in books we had because of real life challenges for a member. Looking forward to playing with you.

Thank you. If you want to read it again feel free I might pick it up as well, if I have time and the library has a copy. We get 30 additional points if someone reads it.
Yup, I remember we have been in a team :)Do you know about my books? I mean if I am joining in February, can I post books I read in the whole February or just starting from date joined?
I can try to read it as well. I'm doing Handmaid's Tale for the challenge. Depending on how long it take to finish that I can try A is for Alibi.

No problems, I'll start it today.
Here is the countdown for the mini. Books have to be finished after the mini starts to count. Countdown timer
****Spread Sheet Updated to Here****We have eight 7s left for the month. I've been trying to use any book that works for a seven as a seven. I don't think it will be an issue.
We read books that connect to A is for Alibi. Can be pretty much any connection. Here are some possible examples:
Both set on west coast.
Both have female main characters trying to solve a mystery
Both MPG mystery
Both have green covers
Both have the same page numbers
We only get the 30 point extra one time, but if you want to read A is for Alibi go ahead. You don’t have to though.
