88432 Would this one Find Me by Laura van den Berg work for the yellow 4 or is it too greenish?

Or this one We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves by Karen Joy Fowler for the yellow 5 (setting is Bloomington, Indiana (United States) )? Or is Indiana too unspecific as it is a state not a town?

88432 I'll try to read A Hidden Fire until Tuesday. Teddi from Team Bones added it on Feb 4th 2015. It's a freebie at amazon and she rated it quiet high.

What did you think of it? I loved this series as a kid and I listen to the audiobooks recently. I still really lik..."


The book was nice but I felt it was kind of rushed sometimes. But maybe my expectations were a bit too high and overall I really liked it and will probably read the other parts as well.

88432 @ Eni: Hope you feel better very soon!

Just finished Vampir à la carte.

It was okay but I would not really recomment it.

88432 If I read one book included in a 7-book-package, how would it work for the challenge. For example if I would read the first Narnia book in this collection The Chronicles of Narnia Complete 7-Book Collection with Bonus Book: Boxen would it work as one book? I got it as a kindle deal and saw that it would work nicely for some cards :D
