All right team! Can we do 11 books in 3 days? That would finish off our hands, and the mini challenge.I can do 5, I think. I've started another Hades/Persephone audio, and I have a few hours left in my current e-book.
That's 6. So 5 more?
I think it’s a typo on the ACOTAR 😅 - though I did love series!
Sarah wrote: "I think it’s a typo on the ACOTAR 😅 - though I did love series!"You're right. That was Ashlee that said that!
I was slightly panicked. And then was thinking how I was gonna manage getting it done in three days, lol

Hello!!So sorry for not checking in lately
I had a work trip and everything has been so crazy.
I'm finishing one more book today for sure.

I grabbed Go off of your shelf and added it to the spreadsheet already. :)

I noticed! thank you
After I finish the color books I've already got planned for April, I'm thinking of re-reading some Ilona Andrews (we have 10 5s!). That would cover the Blue 5, and possibly the Red 5 as well. If anyone comes across something that works for one of those in your reading, please say something here so I don't take your spot.

I have been binge watching The Good Wife for the first time (and am completely in love) - which means I didn't do much reading this week. I apologize for that guys but don't apologize for falling in love with a television show. LOL
Ariel wrote: "I have been binge watching The Good Wife for the first time (and am completely in love) - which means I didn't do much reading this week.

But I'm glad you're enjoying it.
No worries about books. I'm about to add April's books to the spreadsheet, and I think that will do it for us for the month, just in time.
I can understand that - I just started season 3 today and I am definitely seeing the soap operaish come out.For next month, does it matter when the books were started or do they have to start after April 1?

They just have to have been started since Uno started on Feb. 1.
How do these look for our drink names? I'm not the most creative, but here's what I got:Hades & Persephone's Sweet Terrors
Hades & Persephone's Kind Neighbor
Hades & Persephone's Blue Angel
A Messy Wife
Maverick's Last Song

Do we still need more books for this month or is everything complete?
I like those drink names

Sorry. After I finished adding April's books, I forgot to come back and say that we are done for the month.
I just paused 2 audios and my ebook, so I'll have a bunch of books completed in the first few days of April!
