Can you add your books to the UNO shelf please

We can cover a few more cards with the current books:
- Hand 8: The Prisoner in the Castle has been used only for 8, but it also works for Skip (title), so we get the Draw 2 card covered as well; or even easier is to move the book to cover both the Skip cards instead of 8
Hand 10: Devil in Spring has been used only for 7 Blue, but works also for Skip (author), so Draw 2 covered
- Hand 12: A Keeper has been used only for 2 Blue, but it also works for Skip (title), so we get the Draw 2 card in this hand covered as well
