Gustaf | 553 comments A little housekeeping:

(I'm sorry to be the one always complaining about stuff.)

*For hand 13 you can't just put a book in the SS. We are missing a Draw 2 on that one and there's two other cards left, 1 and 7. That means the book has to fit both card 1 and 7 to be able to use the draw 2 and therefore finishing that card.

*When you mark a book as read in the ss I want you the make the line yellow, not green so I easily can see which books I have not yet put on the official ss.

*Please check the dates. There has been a lot of random dates in the ss.

*At the bottom of the SS there's a list of books not used. Please put all your books that doesn't fit anywhere there so we have books we can use if needed at the end of the month.

We are only missing those cards on hand 13 as of now. Great job everyone!

Would you like us to go and change our lines from green to yellow now or just remember for the rest and next rounds?

Gustaf | 553 comments I change them to green when I have transferred them and it’s up to date. So let it be.

Sharon (sharon_alexandr) | 337 comments Sorry to be MIA the last few days. My husband and I both had time off work for the same days (a rarity in our house, unfortunately), so we were getting things done that we'd been putting off for a while, and I didn't get any reading done. Hoping to finish a book or two this week.

You all are doing a great job!!
