I have a blue 7 that I'm reading that we can use as backup if needed :)

Ok great, Annika! Thanks!
If you're reading it anyway... then I'll just skip my book entirely and read something else that might be more useful for the mini challenge.

I'll read Painted Veil now and then I'll see what else I can find that might finish up a set of tasks.

Last week of the game coming up!!

What are your reading plans for this last stretch of the game?

Also, does anyone have a book for our 3 Yellow?

As for myself:
The Painted Veil (water on cover task) should be done tomorrow hopefully.

Then I'll be reading Silence of the Grave for the thriller task which should hopefully also be quick.

And then I want to read Spider's Bite next week, too, but not sure yet for which task. Probably a spell-out, which might be the easiest egg to finish up.

Does the garden need to be the main part of the cover or can it be in the background?

It's yellow enough :)

It can be in the background :)

I finished The Mountain Between Us by Charles Martin. It doesn't fit any of the tasks for the mini-challenge. :( I'll try to find a book that will fit one of them.

Annika wrote: "LaurLa wrote: "If this is yellow enough, the setting is Hackettstown, NJ. I can read it if no one else has anything at all.

Okay, I'm not going to read it until the last minute. If someone else comes up with something before then, go for it!

Annika wrote: "Annalisa wrote: "Does the garden need to be the main part of the cover or can it be in the background?"

I'm not sure I would fully consider it a garden, but The Spymaster's Lady has an abstract of a flower garden behind the main character. It is a little questionable if it is a garden or not. I should see if I can find something better than an abstract garden.

That would work for garden to me, so if you want to read it - go for it :)

I've started Pretty Little Liars. It has a yellow cover and one of the main characters is named Hanna.

Has anyone found a book with Haux found in the title? I've looked and not really seen anything. Google was not very helpful.

Awesome! Take it!!! Mine wasn't on my April reading list so I'm happy to not have to read if I don't have to :-)

Looking again - seems if I have the H, then I don't have the U or vice versa...

I found twobut only one is long enough. Again, won't get to it until last minute but I'll read for it if still needed.

The Troublemaker Next Door

It's always good to have options :-)

Thanks for checking!

I've got a hold on the book LaurLa suggested so hopefully it will come in. I also found another on called The Great Unexpected by Sharon Creech. I'll see if I can get that when I'm at the library. Maybe I'll like one of them.

I'm listening to Think Like a Freak and that is orange. I should finish it soon.

I haven't figured out how to do links on the app so sorry about the lack of links to these books.

Sounds good, Annalisa! And no worries about the links :-)

I finished Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard. That should take care of the 3 yellow book.

Character - Hanna

Nice! Post what they fit for and we might be able to switch some around if needed :)

Oh I'm sure we can fit them somewhere into the spell-outs!

Some of the books listed for the spell-outs have other options as well so we might be able to switch some things around to maximise book-use and points.

What do we need for the Mini challenge?

Shame about those last 50 pages, Chris!

is done! And that finishes off another one of our eggs.

OK. For the book I've just finished, 'One Day', I can use '...where the MC goes to the zoo'

On another note I began reading 'The innocence of Father Brown', by GK Chesterton, thinking it was a book. However, after finishing what I thought was the first chapter I have since realised it was not a chapter but that 'The Innocence of Father Brown', is actually a series of short stories!

I won't be reading on Thursday as I have business to attend to all day so that really only leaves me four days before the end of the month. I will have a look at my TBR shelf and see if I can find a short book (obviously of 25,000 words or more) to try and get though by the end of April. I will let you know. What a plonker!

Right, I am going to read and TRY to finish 'Agatha Raisin and the Walkers of Dembley'. I'm not going to promise I will finish it but I will try and do my best.

All good, Chris! If you don't manage, so be it. Main thing is that you're enjoying your book!! :-)

I'm currently reading . This has a garden on the cover. It can also be used for flower or petal, page 27.

I haven't finished it. I'll post again when I do. The above keeps me from forgetting those in case we need to move something around and this fits one of those better than the garden.

I'm reading We Were Liars. It won a Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ Choice Award.
