Sherri’s comments from the Around the Year in 52 Books group.

Hi Emily, Can I count for a book with an item of food on the cover.? They are drinking tea on the cover. Thank You.

Hi all. I should finish A Psalm For The Wild-Built by Becky Chambers today. They are drinking tea on the cover but not sure that counts as food. Should I ask on a ruling on this from the moderators?

Hello All, I finished Now Lorraine Has Gone. I put it under cornucopia 4. A book about family dynamics. It would work for the orange cover . My version has a very orange background but I can't find the kindle version on Good Reads. There is a name in the title & it is a mystery. Feel free to move it if you see a place where it works better. Could someone add more columns to the completed tab? My next read is A Psalm for the Wild-Built. I don't see a place where this will work besides using for acorns. For those who have read the book let me know what you think.

Good Morning All. I'll continue reading Now Lorraine Has Gone today. I don't think I'll finish today but we will see. I don't have a lot to do today. Now that we are working on our second cornucopias I have more places to use the book. We're doing great.

My next book is . Mystery. My kindle edition has an orange cove but I can't find it on Good Reads.

Hi Team Squash. I finished . I put it under Cornucopia 1. A book with an animal in the story. I put it on the spreadsheet. For cornucopia 1 we need a book with a majority of orange in the cover & 3 acorns. I haven't picked my next read but with check in again once I know.

Good Morning All, I will continue reading The Purrfect Murder. There are several animals in the story that are repeating characters in the series. I won't finish today. I have 236 pages left but I will be gone this afternoon. My goal is to get as far as I can today & finish tomorrow. We are doing really well.

TO BE READ:

Welcome to the team Lynn.
I finished Gerta. I put it on the spreadsheet for the first cornucopia under a book with 400 + pages. On the planned page I marked the book complete. I can move it to the complete tab if you don't mind. I started The Purrfect Murderlast night. It has animals in it as characters.

Sheena wrote, "Just want to check for consensus .. do you think the Bodyguard is yellow or orange?" Yellow.

Good Evening Team Squash. I love Read-A-Thons. I will finish Gerta tomorrow. It's 447 pages. After tomorrow I'm not sure. I'm hopeful A Psalm for the Wild-Built will come in from the library tomorrow. It has been in transit since Tuesday. So we will see.

Search:A Novel by Michelle Huneven will fit the food prompt.
