I think you should use that for food on the cover.

Will do that later.

Hey guys! I saw we haven't filled up the beach challenge, but Crescendo features a beach (Delphic Beach) in parts of the book! Maybe we could switch mine to there, since now it's just for girl on the cover!

great im enjoying this so should be done soon

Hey guys! I'm gonna try and read some books that can fit the missing categories :) I think we just need rings, Mr. Or Mrs. In the title (which I think Drishti is reading), love/wedding title, and shoes on the cover :) I think there might be one more but I don't remember it

I'm going to read the Statistical probability of love at first sight for the Love in the title one! :)

Great you can cover that up! I think Cinthia is reading for ring on the cover. Also, I'll be reading Coffeehouse Angel for beverage on the cover (I think nobody is reading for this description, is anyone?) So, don't bother yourself with these two descriptions.

Ah alright perfect! :) i think the other time is getting close because of how many pages they've read, so I might try to fit some larger books into categories for that once we've done the challenge once :)

I'll try and find a boon for shoes on the cover once I finish the one for 23

Wow. We are cutting it pretty close. I'll be done with rings on the cover today hopefully I got like 100 pages left. Today is my short day at work and I'm glad I need my reading fix!!! Snippets here and there during breaks at work is not cutting it lol.

Yea the other team is really catching up! So that's why I was trying to finish everything atleast once :) I'm about 30-40% done with my book for 23, and then on to one with shoes! Is there any category we could possibly finish twice?

Part 1 seems like the easiest categories to fill.

Yea, and I see a lot of doubles there, so we might be able to finish that twice :)

Just finished my book for challenge 23! Looking for a book with shoes on the cover next, and then I'll move on to finding some books that I can read to complete task 1 again!

Just finished something borrowed by #12 rings on the cover. Review is up. Reading Landline by Rowell but unsure where I'll put it yet.

I didn't get a chance to go through the books we've read but I saw there is an edition for Pride and prejudice that the cover shows male and female wearing shoes so that could be an alternative to shoes on the cover..

I actually am like 60% done with shoes on the cover, so maybe it can double up in task 1 so we can finish it again?

I see we have two challenges doubled and one tripled, could we move the extras to task 1 and try and finish that again? Because I think that'll be the easiest to try and do again

Like I can read Finale for couple on the cover :)

Meaghan yes. Can you make the suggestions which ones to move around I'm won't be able to today.

Alright I'll take a look at them :)

Awesome.

Hey guys! I know how we can move some stuff around to possibly fill task 1 again :) Amrita, could you move the Siren from 18 to 2, a book with a girl on the cover? And Cinthia, can you more your the Siren from 30 to 6, a new book? And Eva, can you move Prince of Venice Beach to a book from a guy POV? And I can move Crescendo to a blue book with one of the other editions :) if there's a better way to do this let me know!

This is a great team, im kinda sad i didnt get any of you in my group for next months challenge

I'm doing serious next time around, so that's probably why I didn't get anyone here either :(

yeah im in medium

I'm gonna be reading Finale for 1, a couple on the cover :)

Same here! I was kinda apprehensive before the challenge started because Sarah said that the lack of organisation in Fun teams may bother some. But, needless to say, we are quite organized for a Fun team! This team has really set some standards for my definition of an ideal team!

Dana wrote: "yeah im in medium"

I'm in medium too. But, unfortunately, we aren't in the same team. =(

Yea I'm really glad with our organization too! That's why I moved into the tougher categories as well, as I don't think I'd ever want to have a team not organized, and I was lucky with having a great team this month.

* Cinthia, Feb 8th - Queen Song

8. a borrowed book
* Amrita, Feb 10th - Six of Crows

9. make up or Jewellery on the cover (or title)

10. A man in a suit on the cover

So, shouldn't we try to fill #3, #9 and #10?

Oh I looked at the progress and it had 1 of each book on it, but maybe I was looking at the wrong thing?

Meaghan wrote: "Oh I looked at the progress and it had 1 of each book on it, but maybe I was looking at the wrong thing?"

I guess you were looking at post #1 which has the completed part-1. The thing I posted is from post #2 which shows our progress for completing part-1 a second time.

Oh whoops! I was thinking it seemed pretty empty

Doesn't it look like this edition (A Study in Scarlet) has a man wearing a suit?

Oh yea that definitely does!

Meaghan wrote: "Oh yea that definitely does!"

Shall I ask Abbie to switch it?

Yea I would! :)

Meaghan wrote: "Yea I would! :)"

I asked Abbie to switch it. =)

And, doesn't it look like that in this edition ( ), the woman is wearing a necklace? Would it work for #9?

Oh yea she does!

Do you think this one ( ) would work for #3?

If the drops are in the shape of a tiara or a crown then yes :) I can't completely see, but it looks like it

Meaghan wrote: "If the drops are in the shape of a tiara or a crown then yes :) I can't completely see, but it looks like it"

I better confirm this from Sarah once.

Yea I would, I feel like it does though!

Meaghan wrote: "Yea I would, I feel like it does though!"

Sarah approved! :-)

Yay! What do we have left to fill then? :)

I have asked Abbie for all the three switches. This means that we can complete Part-1 a second time. Part-2 will be completed once I finish Mr. Maybe. But, can someone please read for beverage on the cover to complete Part-3? I know I had said I would read for that one, but exams start in ten days. So, things are a bit crazy around here.

Also, I have read and and have buddy reads for these too. But, I'm not getting where to put them. What do you guys suggest?

Hmm, the only thing I can think of is POVs, but that might not be smart. And I'll cover beverage!

I'll find a book for it now :)

Quick question, but how do I input the actual covers of a book into my reviews or the chat? For some reason ice only been able to do links
