My apologies! I finished Love in the Time of Cholera yesterday but didn't have any internet (I'm on vacation). Ugh... what a book! I'm about to edit and review but I did finish it yesterday.

Just kidding. I am looking forward to starting my first book for March, though. I've requested the two colored covers from my library and will start one of them soon. I'll probably read something else in the meantime.
Reading both of my color books!love them so far!:)
My colour book is a 2nd in series so reading first one now and fortunately im loving it too 😊

Hey guys, I just wanted to warn you that I am heading out to our cottage for a 'Winter break' leaving tomorrow. I will be able to sign in and say hi while I am gone for the week by using my phone, but I will likely not post books as it is a bit of a pain. Please don't panic -- I promise I will be reading and will post them all when I am home in a week. I am about 30% through my color book now.
Have a good time Diane, still waiting until we can go to.our for longer than few hours ...April 12th is the date 😁😁

So far, the rest of the province is lightening up. When I am at the cottage I will be able to shop in stores that I can't yet in Toronto. I can also go see my Mom as she has been vaccinated.

Great MM novel btw. Would recommend.
I know I posted about a book I read this week, but I’m checking in just in case. I’m close to finishing two books (one is my green one for the month) and should be able to post them in the next couple days.
I just wanted to check in - I’ve finished a book today and will make the completion post later. I will probably finish another book tomorrow or Wednesday :)
Let me check in!I'm still alive, steal reading but I was a bit busy these last days. I'll have more time by Thursday normally to post my books
Checking in too from the cottage! Am getting some reading done and will post soon. Finished my cokored cover book!
Checking in as well. I'm almost finished with my current book (The Dream Daughter) for my local book group then I will start on my book for the red card (The Rosie Project) - hopefully later today or tomorrow. I hope everyone is doing well!
Loved logging on to see so many check in posts! Happy Monday, and I hope everyone has a great week :)

It can be a bit of both. There's definitely some chance involved based on the main hands. The mini challenges do tend to get a little more difficult as the challenge progresses, so that can come into play. Similarly, the main hands get a little more challenging (there are more cards in total and more color cards) so that can also make a difference.
