S, the initial publication date for your book is in 2016. Unfortunately, this book won't work. If you can find a book that is just over 150 pgs, that will work because we have the page requirement covered.

I've posted our completion for Task #4
Here is Task 5:67. Read 6 books with a specific item on the cover, team selects item.
Item needs to be specific - gun is specific, weapon is not, necklace is specific, jewelry is not.
Okay, ladies...suggestions? I would think there are a lot of books with either necklaces or guns. Please list any other items that you think would work.
Oooh this is tricky. Let me look at my upcoming books and see if I can find something. I think you may be onto something with necklace or some type of jewelry!!!
Another team did white shirt. It just has to be something specific.
What about a foot or flowers. Idk if flowers is specific enough. I have two books that would work for flowers or 2 with a foot or a hand even. Haha
Omg I was just gonna ask about flowers lol
Also wondering would something like “eyes” work or would we need to say a color? And for the cover does it have to be the GR page count edition or can we use any edition for the item?
I don’t think flowers would work since it ‘needs to be specific. Hand or foot would be specific. We’d Have to pick one. I also thought of bare chest.
We could do roses as an example if we could find enough books or another flower if we can all find books and we need 6
Upcoming I have red lips (lipstick), & red flowers (roses) 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️

And for the cover does it have to be the GR page count edition or can we use any edition for the item?"I don’t think eyes are specific enough. We just need to use the amount of pages from the kindle edition. The cover we use for our book needs to show whatever we picked as our item.
I have two I can do if you think this also works??
Hand or roses works for what I am planning on reading this week already for other challenges but I’m flexible and can make anything work so whatever is best for y’all:)
Crystal, The second one would definitely work for rose but I don’t think the first one would. For rose I could read
What about a football or any sports item, a doctor's stetescope or any medical item, a guitar or any musical instrument, or a baby pacifier or any baby items those are some suggestion.
It would need to be a specific item such as a football, hockey stick, etc. stethoscope would be good if we can all find books. Since a pacifier is small, that might be tough to see.
I have books that would fit for either stethoscope or football
Why don’t we take a vote because I think we have enough items now. Rose
Football
Stethoscope
Guitar
Hand (it would have to show the entire hand I think)
Necklace
I’m good with rose, football or stethoscope. Actually I can do necklace too. Lol
I also have two with feathers but that too seems hard lol
Lol ok easiest for me would probably then be roses then hand or hand(s).
As soon as Jodi and S vote, we’ll decide

If roses is okay with you, S, seems we have our item picked.
🤞🏽🤞🏽 This one is so challenging I think too because we all don’t read the same type books lol, personally I rarely read contemporaries anymore, but I love the challenge of figuring out each of these challenges if that makes sense 😂
It is tough to pick something like this.
If you are all struggling to find something we can go back to the board... like I said, I’m easy peasy. A men’s tie might be easy or a cowboy hat or wedding dress. I see a lot of covers with a guy wearing a suit and tie.
If roses is okay with S, we’ll all be in agreement.
As long as the cover has at least one rose, it’s fine.
If everyone could post their selection, that would be great. 2 of us will need to read 2 books as we need a total of 6.
I’m guessing red rose? Though rose should suffice as it’s more specific than flower, but that’s just my guess lol

S, I’m not sure about your 2nd book. I’ll check on it.
Okay karen but there is a rose on the right bottom corner of the book.
I've gotten clarification that rose is specific enough, it doesn't have to be a certain color.
