Can you take a look at hand 2? I don't quite understand how you arranged 2 cards "draw2", because there are must be total 3 books in this hand."

So Kierra, could you look at the hand again? I changed it as you suggested, but is it ok that the book for Skip doesn't have anything to work for 'K' or 'P'?

Ok, I will do that yellow 7 then.

Never mind. Character Perry worked for the Skip card.

Still please look and make sure it's ok. Thanks!

Nanci, yep, Hand 2 looks great!

Good thing I have you to keep me straight! For some reason I keep forgetting that the Draw 2 takes care of two books. Thanks for your help. I think all hands are correct now, but if later on I do it again feel free to remind me. :)

Updated to here.
We finished our 4th Eurovision word and are almost finished with our 5th. Those give us some good extra points, so thanks for posting them on the thread.

Team,
I haven't heard from Brianna since the beginning of the month. I'm a bit concerned since she signed up to read one of our color books- 2blue and also the Reverse in Hand Two for the book, Shatter Me. Can anyone volunteer to take either one of those for her?

Also, we still have an 8red color book that needs to be claimed for Hand 12.

Kierra, are you going to be able to finish your color book for Hand Nine, 8red?

Has anyone read Winter by Marissa Meyer? I will be finishing it soon & maybe it would work for Reverse.

The book I am starting now, the court of mist and fury will work for a blue 2.

Thanks, Letitia. Yes, that will definitely work. Very helpful!

Thanks, Raine. Got them.

Has anyone read, The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake? We need another reverse.

Greta,
I read Open a few years back. I was skimming your shelves to see if you'd read anything that I could use a Reverse and saw you read it in 2016. I reread it, so we can use it. I also saw your comment about growing up watching him play. I really liked him. I had no idea he hated tennis so much until I read it. Interesting memoir.

We still need one more Reverse and then we're set.

Cool! Yes, I thought it was a great read and definitely had no clue how much he hated tennis! My dad just pulled out my old racket that I used and it was the yellow and black one that Agassi promoted :D

Is this the one, Greta?

Yes!!

Hi Team,
Happy almost Friday. In the US it's a 3 day weekend, so hopefully that means a little more time to read around picnics, parties and remembering those who have served or are currently serving our country. It also means UNO challenge will be over in just 5 short days! I'm going to read Shatter Me since we haven't heard from Brianna. Other than that we have 17 more books to complete! We do still have 9 books we can claim as Player X, since we're so short on players. I'm feeling hopeful we can finish all our hands in the next 5 days.

Please keep posting and reading in this final stretch!! We can do it!!

I have read Shatter Me. Does that help?

Greta wrote: "I have read Shatter Me. Does that help?"
Have you read it this month? If not, could you reread it if it's been more than 6 months? That would be great!

If not, I will read it. It's just not in my genre.

Hmm, I didn't like it :-(

Have you read The Girl You left Behind?

I ask because that's my next book after the Yellow 7.

Yes, Greta! I read it in 2015. You just made my day! I really didn't want to read Shatter Me, especially since you didn't like it either. I've added The Girl You Left Behind to my UNO shelf and I will also add it to the spreadsheet and remove Shatter Me. I liked that book. Hope you do too!

Ok, I will do my best to get them both done :-) nothing like a little pressure to keep me focused!

I'm glad you don't have to read that one! I just barely made it through...

Sorry we didn't get to yours, Letitia. The different taste is books is what makes GR interesting. :0

Greta, thanks so much for taking on the challenge of reading two in a short time!

Did you like it a lot Leticia? I do like YA most times but sometimes a book just doesn't click for me.

Ok, I'm having a really hard time finding a red cover 8 book. Has anyone read one this month that we could use? Anyone have a suggestion for one that would work? I'm asking the mods if any of these would work and and , but if someone has already read one, that would be better. I don't even know if they'll have a character or place in them that starts with an "I". Any clues how to search for that??

For Eurovision we just have to find a "Y" for Norway and then a "U" for Istanbul and we'll finish two more words. I'm guessing that's all we'll get before the challenge is over, but that would be 7 words and I think that's pretty great for our small team. :)
