Sure Leslie! As long as their paperback or hardcover editions meet the minimum page count requirement, they'll work.

Thanks Ann! :)
21757 I haven't yet figured out what I'm going to read, but I just wanted to say - amazing task! I'm a huge fan of Edgar Wright/Simon Pegg/Nick Frost as well, and I'm going to see The World's End tomorrow!! Yay!

Amanda, it's showing up as more pink and orange than yellow on my screen... It does have Chick Lit on the main page though (for option 4)!

Yes, I'll take that for Option 6. You may need to mention that it was approved though, just in case! :)

21757 Barbara ★ wrote: "For option 2 - book with the word "BLACK" in the title/subtitle/author name.

can it be part of the author's name? I'm thinking about using

Secondhand Spirits (A Witchcraft Mystery, #1) by Juliet Blackwell - Juliet Blackwell"


I'll have to say no to that Barbara. The name needs to be "Black". Sorry! However, it does have Fantasy > Magic on the main page, so you could use it for the same option but for Fantasy. :)

21757 Deborah wrote: "For option 1, do flowers need to cover fifty percent of the cover as well, or just be present?"

As long as we can make out that they are flowers, that is fine! Enchanted (Woodcutter Sisters #1) by Alethea Kontis works perfectly! Your Option 2 book is fine too. :)

21757 No problem Donna! I couldn't make it out yesterday in reduced light, so I thought I'd ask. I have something else for 10.8, but there are more tasks to come! I'll fit it in somewhere! :)
