I'm also glad I didn't get the task.

That ..."
That were indeed the kind of books I was thinking about. So it wouldn't have been too bad to get that task.
Mod
I have found (with Lu's help) a book by Sherrilyn Kenyon (not my favourite author) about some sort of horny Egyptian god. So here goes!!
I've decided on Lady of the Butterflies by Fiona Mountain for my No. 60 - Book with four word title. Do we post here when we've completed our tasks?
Think ill start the sword of truth series--first wizards rule for my number 49, something with witches/wizards/magic!!!
Mod
@Lauren F - lol
@Jessica - Enjoy!

Well one of us can pick a number for you, if that's what you mean.
Mod
Unless you guys can live with me using 5 or so numbers (cause I am slow), and each time someone else picks one for me?
If you like, we can have an extra prize that I'll sponsor. Then you can award a prize after the first 6 months and I'll pay for one after the next 6 months, and you can compete for that one.Since you have the list of tasks though, we'll have to pick numbers for you.
I'm sure no one would object to you 'depriving' us of numbers, lol.
Mod
I would love to pick a number for you and you would not be depriving us of numbers. That is just silly.
Let us know who you want to pick your number for you.
Mod

I think there would be far more than enough numbers to go around.

Mod
Don't worry about the prize Lauren, I just want to join for the fun :)
Mod
Mod
Besides I won the prize last year, so this year is on me

Ok, but let me know if you change your mind.
Mod
Ok so Lauren you pick my number first? And please don't make it hard...
I'll try and activate my psychic powers and pick an easy one.Hmmmm... 200
Mod
200 - Read a book with a person’s name in the title
Need to go look at my to-read list now :)
Mod
13 - Someone wearing a skirt on the cover
Good luck!
13 - Someone wearing a skirt on the coverSounds like fun! Quick question: can the skirt be part of a dress?
Mod
I finished my first task!11 - Something on the cover that you have a phobia of
I'm scared of water - especially deep and dark water.
Read:
For my next task, cringing just a little, I choose #2.
Mod
2 - Read a Historical Romance
I don't know if that is a good or bad thing...
Umm, is there water on that cover? Isn't her hair just blowing in the wind?
I looked at the large pic of the cover - it looks indistinct to me, just a blurred background in blue tones.
It looks like water to me. o.oJust in case it's not, I can choose something else.
Will either of these count for "heights"?
Mod
Mod
On closer inspection the background might also be clouds and mountain.
Inconclusive.
her hair is definitely blowing in the wind, the background just might be water
Mod
Just in case it's not, I can choose something else.
Will either of these count for "heights"?
"Both of those look like Heights to me.
The Historical Romance not in the near future? lol
It could be water, but it could also be something else blurred out and tinged with blue. But if everyone sees water then I guess it's ok.
Haha, no problem. It could be something else blurred, but I just always saw it as water before now. I have those other books on my March read list anyway, so it's no bother to just pick something else. :)@Lu, I'll keep task #2 and read it when I get my first task sorted. Sorry for the trouble.
Mod
The two books you mentioned most definitely would count for heights.
Mod
@Barbara wow your hair is long!
Lu wrote: "You mean the bottom part of the dress? or a two part outfit that looks like a dress?"Two part that looks like a dress - thinking Victorian fashion.
Hi, I would like to play. Can I choose 444?
Mod
Would you mind choosing another number?
Mod

-> This is the book I have in mind - it's a top and skirt of the same fabric.
