Rainbow cover?

Jamie wrote: "Bookbuyer wrote: "Updated. :)"

Rainbow cover?"

I figured this would count?

Ah KK. So it wouldn't count then?

I'll take 27 also.

Just an idea, if you read a book for an easy category but it can work for a harder one (drinking wine, takes place somewhere. etc) and you find this out as you read it, I think we should change it up. Several of these any of us can do but others are going to be tricky. It might help to share WHAT you are reading for each # so maybe another person sees another spot it can work if we need to move one or get one in.
Also, Bookbuyer I vote you as the decision maker for whom we are guessing made these as you are the chattiest and feel you know our MODs so well. :)

I agree. I just don't want doubles so I figured claiming would be good. We can always switch things around when we find a harder one to cover.

Thanks. I do have an idea for some but others are particularly tricky. :)

Well and some it's hard to tell until we've read it too. Unless someone else in the group has. Its why I post mine. Someone might see something I've missed. :)

Yes. Exactly. That's why I 'avoided' some of them. I'll switch some of my easier ones to them if I find a harder one to cover.

If I can keep to my schedule my first three books will be and

Sorry thought I responded to this 🤦🏻‍♀️ Yeah, it looks like that cover will count for the rainbow category.

YAY!

Also Merry Christmas!

Was bored so I made us an SS. Let me know if you want me to change anything. :)

It's just view for now. I'll make it editable if you guys like it.

Thanks Book! I love it. I love all the different colors!

I'm in a rainbow mood lately. :)

Want me to make it editable? :)

I'll post the edit link anyway. Heading to bed soonish.

I almost forgot to freeze the row. Now whenever you scroll you'll still see the 'categories' like book and author. etc.

Thank and Merry Christmas!!

Love all the shades (I really do!) but can we tone it down a shade or two since we are using so many? My eyes will have a hard time with that at times. Just a bit would help a lot. :)

Meanwhile MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!

You have to work on Christmas! :( Do you at least get paid double time or something?

Nope. But I do a free sub sandich and bottle of water. My works idea of a thank you for working it 😑

I forget what do you do? Are you a nurse?

Retail supervisor

Store recovery day.

Jamie wrote: "Retail supervisor"

Ah. I don't know why I thought nurse. Maybe the weird hours and long shifts. lol.

Lol probably. It’s a mess of a schedule with lots of double shifts and on calls. I wish I was a nurse for the hours I do! At least that would be better money!

Yeah but then you'd have to deal with blood, and urine and feces. :P
