I can see a bridge, and water, and clouds, and lightning and some land...

Ah, yes I see. Thanks for the clarification.
Just look..."

Thank you. I failed to read the FAQ s/s. 😳

I've got two questions. First, with an epistolary novel, does the whole thing need to be in a correspondence format? I've just read The Diva Runs Out of Thyme and each chapter is headed with a letter to one of the two MCs. Will this count?
Second question, #54 is for a "simple" cover, no people and only 1 object. Will this work? It only has a bridge on it.

I started this way back in 2016 as my first ever challenge. I mistakenly thought it would be easy to find 127 flowers in books. Boy was I wrong. Sadly, I've only just been told about word search in Google and Amazon books, so I might have missed some flowers over the years but I have yet found any books with bachelor button or kangaroo paw. Can I read a plant book to cover these. I've got 30 words left and I would like to finish by my 3 year anniversary. 😳

Thanks everyone for a fun team challenge. I hope to see you all at the next one. Have a wonderful holiday, whatever you celebrate.

For genre I can squeeze in a reread of Casino Royale, which has been tagged thrice as "cold. " is that an acceptable variation and number of tags?

Do we still need a snowflake genre book?

Task 27 - has a belt on the cover

I've had a poor reading week, this week. I managed 1book but it's 155 pages! It was The Island of Dr. Moreau, a blooming classic but 5 pages short. I think I'll have a few books to add for week 6, though.

Condominium challenge complete!

I can spot cornbread a mile away. My southern upbringing has to be good for something. When I first moved across the ocean to England, I missed cornbread and my mom used to send me boxes of jiffy.

Happy Thanksgiving! I had to celebrate mine last Sunday. In the words of William DeVaughn, I'm thankful for what I got.

There is another version of the book that team Igor read with obvious cornbread squares on it.
