Great! I knew I was behind in posting so wanted to do that just in case. I finished my Small Towns read today and will post that now. It's updated in the SS sheet.
For the Muscular Man, I'll pull one of my reads from the 14th on.

Would this book count for building on the cover?
Maggie wrote: "Would this book count for building on the cover?"Jessica is currently reading for the building on the cover. We do not need you to read anything else for this month. If one of the books you already finished works for "Read a book with some kind of furniture or decor piece on cover or the word in the text" then you can let us know. Otherwise all the books for the mini are covered.
I've added a sheet for March on the tracking SS. I've simplified the top a bit from last moth and added a place for tracking color covers. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

Both books Dark Matter and Reminders of Him have furniture in their texts. MINI 14,15,16.

It helps Ash, and if you can provide a short passage so the captains can put in the sheet.

All books finished now will count for March as I’m sure most of you know. Happy March reading!
Hello! Happy to begin another month! Hope you're all okay :)
Hello all! Happy March! It's almost spring in my part of the world 🌷I hope you are all safe and well today.
Question on a Red cover - I've added Riley Thorn and The Corpse In the Closet as a possible Red 2 read on the SS.
I didn't see the book listed on the Uno Red Shelf (I'll look through again)
When I run the cover through TinEye I get the following breakdown -
59.9% #f8b8a2 Pink
33.0% #fb3964 Pink
4.1% #b5244c Red
3.0% #f27384 Pink
Should I switch Riley out for this read instead?
It would work for our Red 2 card this hand as well.
Maggie that looks pink to me. I would not be comfortable using it at a red. Team- if you aren’t sure if a book works for a color please reach out. If as a team we aren’t sure I can take to the captains channel.
Yes Happy Spring finally!! This Sunday it’s supposed to be in the 70 degrees in Jersey I hope it stays warm I’m tired of this cold!
