I've read the last letter, I'm not quite to 22nd I think I am on 20th next for Women's Murder Club, but that means any of mine, you have already read haha

Ilsen, could you put Tess on your UNO shelf?

Oh yes I knew I forgot something. Yes will do it now!

Perfect!

I have read Archers Voice - By Ashlee on Hand 16 if you guys Need a reverse

Hello all!
We have about a week left in March. We are doing well!
I was just picking away at our spreadsheet.
There were a couple books that didn't quite hit the mark for color -
didn't quite hit 50% for yellow (and we can't use series names in this challenge) - but I found a good spot for it in a 9 slot.
wasn't 50 % red, but I found a spot for it in a reverse.

So we still have a yellow and a draw 4 to claim :)

I read a book for the draw 4 but I couldn’t spot the empty hand,so I put it against something else. Maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me lol. Which number is it?

Oh this the book, just to make sure it’s 50% yellow

LOL! It's at Hand 13

I think it's more grey (like in the middle - that takes up a lot of the cover)- but I'll have the mods check it.

(I want to say yes to all! but you know!)

I was on the fence about that book too. But I read another book that could work for wild draw 4. So I’ll just move it around

Sounds good, yes, the moderators voted that one down.

Done - swapped half a soul (green 4) and murder on wall street.

@Brittany, I've taken one of your overflow books, Throne of Secrets to replace my book for 2 in Hand 15. Hope you don't mind that...

Just want to read mine sloooowwwllllyyy *^____^*

Think I've done all the reading I can for March...
Kidding.. I can read 1 more for Aliens & 5

Please use all of my books that you can, they are just going to waste over there haha. I am always sad when i can't fill one of the last open slots

I opened up a 1 on hand six, since I'm probably not getting to that book this month.

We are so glad for those books!
I switched a Brittany book into your hand 6 :)
Anyone have a book with a fish on it?
That starts with an I?
😆

I think I'll be able to figure out that 5 - I think a reverse might be easier to find than a 5 - Aiswrya has a book that can work for an I that is currently in reverse.

I just finished if anyone else has read it, it can be a reverse

I filled in the 5 on hand 16. But I left a 1 on hand 3 if anyone can fill that

I just finished my yellow book. I can read for 1. Found a first book in series on audible plus :)

Oh the book even has a construction worker! Perfect

Sweet!

Nice!
All of our main cards have been claimed!
(I definitely procrastinated this month! I'm reading like a demon)
We have a few March Minis left
I have a V one - does anyone have a May one? I'm sweating on getting that done!
There's a fish on the cover, a book with the word GUIDE in the title (has to have the word itself), and one from the aliens shelf!

Sweet!
Aliens just got taken care of! Thanks Elli! (I was wondering how guide fit into that title :)

Lol! Sorry about that! I was messing around with the spreadsheet at the wrong time.

I'll read . It's a short ebook.

Im on my phone until Sunday evening- so I couldn’t see what you said Ashlee! 🤦‍♀️ Sometimes you can see the comments and sometimes not!

I have a fish book! And a May book. They’ll be at the end of my reading list though, so if anyone has one before Sunday, go for it!!

Dropping it here for reference

Overload cards are also cover colour cards, BUT they require different colours.
The colours you can use for Overload cards are the following:

- purple
- pink
- orange
- brown
- grey
- white
- black

You can only use each cover colour once . They are worth 30 points and don't have to fit any letters, only colours

Awesome.
Thanks to whomever updated our April sheet!!

A couple of notes:
Aiswyra, please mark The Perfectly Proper Paranormal... as read.
Brittany, I think your tags dropped off of Thrones of Secrets - could you put the UNO tag on it?

Looking good though! One more day to sweat out these last books of March!!

On my way

I see we are missing the 'published in May' book. If one of our overflow books 'has a restaurant', 22 Seconds can be moved to the May prompt.

That's a good catch.
I just finished one though and plunked it in there.

Soon, it will be time for April reads!!

Think I can use this book for any cover tasks?


And this cover looks lavender (so purple?) to me. Thoughts?

I have read Three Cowboys and A Baby. You could use this as a Reverse.

It looks pretty purple to me. The TinEye says grey, but I'm thinking purple. Does anyone else think so too?

Out of 29 teams, we're in 8th place!! Good job team!

Woo Hoo

Lol! TBH it looks purple to me & I had a moment of self-doubt when I saw that TinEye says its grey...

Never crossed my mind that grey & purple are similar...

Ooo! We did great!!!
