What a shame JoAnne. All those books and no bingos :("

That's what I was thinking but I was able to use them in other challenges so all was not lost!

That's the good thing about doing so many challenges, your book will always fit somewhere!

I didn't think I'll be able to complete one Bingo but I was wrong once again I completed 4. With some shifting and rearanging I was able to fit all 20 books I finished in February. I like the challenge so much I'll work on it until I find another five books to complete the entire 'board' ;-)

Valentine's Bingo
Duration: February 1-28
Completed bingos: 4
Books read: 20/25
