You might be right. There could be some folks who want the Artichokes to win badly enough that they would read a green cover on purpose :)

- I may be fighting a losing battle for the 'chokes here. We need some defense!

I have two more random green covers hanging out on the shelf and one audiobook so I guess I'd better get at 'em.

Ah, cozy mysteries and the rainbow of covers that come along with them. It's going to cost me in my goal to finish more series than I start this year though :)

Yay! Another point for the 'Chokes!

I just finished reading .

The field goal is good and the Artichokes score!

When on September 15 will the challenge end? I may be able to get one or two more books read depending on the deadline.

Books will need to be reported by midnight (Mountain Standard Time).

Thanks - figured midnight but didn't know where LOL!

I read All the Missing Girls by Megan Miranda. Lots and lots of rainstorms. Go, Storm!

And the Storm push through the pile-up for the touchdown. One more point for the Storm.

Thank goodness for 2x speed on audiobooks :) I finished this one up last night for the 'chokes.

C'mon. Who doesn't want to cheer for a team called the artichokes?

2 for storm

p191 "the next three children arrived during thunderstorms"

"It was a stormy night, and they talked under an umbrella by lightning flashes."

I finished with a lot of green on it, so a point for the Artichokes

Two points for the Storm and two points for the Artichokes!

This game could go either way, folks!

Just finished . The book mentioned Hurricane Ayla hitting the coast of Maine. Parts of story mentioned them prepping, living through, and the aftermath of the storm.

A score for the currently winning team, the Storm.

Because what's a creepy ghost story without thunderstorms?

I just realized that I read earlier this month and it had a snowstorm that stranded Charlie and Dan in the middle of nowhere so, I guess that's one for the storm.

oohhh that's on my TBR shelf! I am just starting The Vanishing by her now for the go-gothic challenge.

I'm looking at all the books I have at home and like none of them are green, sorry Artichokes! LOL.

Two more points for the Storm. Their lead is growing!

Lanelle, I loved the idea of this challenge when I first saw it - despite the fact that I despise football for many reasons - and it looks like lots of other folks enjoy it too. Great idea!

LOL... same...!!

But green books! We need MORE green books!

Working on it - currently listening to one in my commute and reading a paperback at home.

Thanks, Kathy. After 7 years of playing clarinet in my high school and college marching bands, and over 12 years of attending my children's marching band shows (and thus football games), I have come to enjoy football :)

Do you have an idea of which sport we could spotlight come January? Curling?

It'd be tough to pick teams for curling, but hockey would be a good one. Or baseball next spring.

Hockey would be good for January.

I just finished reading .

Another point for the struggling 'Chokes!

I finished Relish: My Life in the Kitchen by Lucy Knisley It has GREEN cover, y'all :)

And another touchdown for the 'Chokes! They're slowly catching up.

- for another green cover and a fascinating read.

Go 'chokes!

I haven't heard of that series, Erin. It does look good.

Field goal for the Artichokes!

I just finished , and there's a scene where he gets struck by lightning while in a car, which gives him the idea of a comic that he eventually writes.

Read . Couple are on date, after date they get caught in a rainstorm. They run through the rain.

Maybe basketball? March Madness . . . I love college basketball. But curling sounds fun too. Or hockey. Clearly, I don't need to enjoy the sport to enjoy the challenge.

Two more touchdowns for the Storm. They are maintaining their lead.

It's an old series, but he's still writing them and I believe released on this year.

- for the artichokes. For what it's worth, the cover looked more dark green in real life.

I've had several that look much more green on my iphone than when i post here. My color must be off in one place or another.

Erin's book scores another point for the 'Chokes!

I just finished reading . Lots of green on the cover.

One more score for the Artichokes.

I finished by Maggie O'Farrell. It has a bit of green in the round inset, and I am really pulling for the Artichokes, but I fear there is just not enough green to count. The image here appears more green than the actual book. So instead, let's enjoy this description.

"Rain hurls itself against the windshield in staccato gusts; the wipers flail back and forth, Sisyphean in their ineffectuality." p. 175

Touchdown for the Storm.

Kathy's book scores a point for the Storm.

p273 "soft thunder rattled the windows behind them and a flash of white light glinted of the glass"

Go Storm!

Finally finished Hugo which has a green and gold cover so another one for the Chokes'

Annnd this will probably be the last one for me in this session.....and it's green! Rachel Spinelli Punched Me in the Face by Paul Acampora 9/14/16

Blizzard in

Torrential downpour in

Winter storm in

A lot of fumbling last night. Neither team could keep possession of the ball.

Four points for the Storm and two points for the Artichokes.

Snow, dumping snow. So fast it accumulated several inches: in
