5.6 - Princess Buttercup
Farm boy! Fetch me that pitcher. "As you wish!" In honor of Princess Buttercup, read a book that has yellow letters on the cover. Not all letters need to be yellow, but at least one must be entirely yellow. Outlines, shadows, and design elements, such as cracking or splitting, may be ignored. Ex:
Tails, You Lose (Witch City Mystery, #2) by Carol J. Perry There You Are by Mathea Morais Ready Player One (Ready Player One, #1) by Ernest Cline The Woman Who Fell from the Sky An American Journalist's Adventures in the Oldest City on Earth by Jennifer Steil The Second Chance Supper Club by Nicole Meier City of Golden Shadow (Otherland, #1) by Tad Williams The Kiss Quotient (The Kiss Quotient, #1) by Helen Hoang The Girl in the Spider's Web (Millennium, #4) by David Lagercrantz Lost in a Good Book (Thursday Next, #2) by Jasper Fforde Artificial Condition (The Murderbot Diaries, #2) by Martha Wells
Required: Include the cover when you post.

Melanie (watermelanie) | 124 comments Would you say this title is yellow or green? The Three-Body Problem (Remembrance of Earth’s Past #1) by Liu Cixin

The title appears to be both, but the only requirement for the task is that there are yellow letters on the cover (they don't need to be in the title). The words above the title "The Bestselling Chinese etc." are yellow so this book would work.

The first one is a little hard to tell (it looks a little off-whiteish) but the last two definitely work.

The "The" looks entirely yellow to me. That works.

The title letters will work. They go from lighter to dark yellow. That one's on my possibles list, too. ;-)

The letters in the word "for" are completely yellow so this would work. It’s hard to see, though, so please include a note saying it was approved in the help thread when you post in the completed task thread.

Thanks

It's bordering on orange, but it will work. Since it's a close call, please include a link to the help thread verification when you post.

I think the author's name (Maria Lang) is supposed to be yellow in all of these, but it's quite pale. Do any of them work for this task?
