25.8 - 25. ♥Robin♥'s Task: Spreading the Love

Is "LOVE" the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the words February 14th or Valentine's Day? It's the first thing I think of. This is the one day of the year when most people will openly show their affection to those they love or care about by sending flowers,cards,candy or other goodies. Personally, I like to spread/share the love all year long but will settle for the next 3 months ☺ Have fun, enjoy and spread the love!!!!

Read 1 book from 2 different options.

REQUIRED: Please state the 2 options you chose when you post.

REQUIRED: If using cover options, please include the book’s cover in your post.

All standard SRC book guidelines apply.

Option 1: Read a book by an author whose initials can be found in any order in "VALENTINE'S DAY".
Author's middle name/initial may be omitted. Initials can be found in any order.

Option 2: Read a book that's cover is primarily Red,Pink or White.

Option 3:Read a book with 'Romance' listed as a genre on its GR home page.

Option 4: Read a book where the word "LOVE" is used in the title or subtitle. Will ONLY accept these variations of the word "LOVE": loves, love's, loved, and loving.

Option 5: Read a book with heart(s) or flower(s) on the cover.

Option 6: Just because I LOVE YOU...Read any book of your choice that meets SRC's standard/general guidelines ☺

Thanks Sandy!

Robin, great task! Is this white enough for option 2?

I've been going spare trying to fit this thing somewhere....

[Robin (Saturndoo)]

[Chaitra]

This may be a bit of an odd question... I'm hoping for option 1 to read various childrens book. Would you consider Dr. Seuss's initials to be DS? I'm only questioning because Dr. is obviously not his first name, but it is the name he goes by...

[Robin (Saturndoo)]

Sorry it has taken me so long to resepond to you Stacie. I have been sick with the flu since Sunday :(

Yes, I will accept that. That is his pen name and the most common name that people know him by. I'm not sure how many people know that is real name is Theodor Seuss Geisel and he went by Ted LOL I didn't know that for many many years myself LOL

Just make sure you read enough to make your alloted # of pages ☺

[Stacie]

Thanks Robin! I hope you're feeling better!

[Melanie]

Hi, this might sound like a silly question, but I was wondering if you meant one book that fits two options, or two books from two different options? Thanks!

[Stacie]

Another silly question from me, for option 2, can the cover have a mixture of those three colors? Pink and white, red and pink, etc.?

Thanks Stacie and YW!!! I still feel a little achey but getting better...I hope ☺

The book can contain all three colors but must be primarily be one of the three.

Example: is primarily red but contains white and pink too.

Hope that helps☺

[Cassie]

I was wondering if Sweets is white enough for option 2?

[D.G.]

Hi Sandy - May I ask clarification on Option 6? I'm new to SRC so I don't know if I'm following SRC's standard/general guidelines.

Are you talking about the ones in this thread? http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

[Robin (Saturndoo)]

Cassie wrote: "I was wondering if Sweets is white enough for option 2?"

I will accept that one Cassie. It appears that the book is primarily white with the lollipops on the corners ☺ There's even a pink and red one.

You are welcome Stacie!!

[Peebee]

has the word "heart" and a picture of Ann and Nancy Wilson (= the band Heart) on the cover. I realize that wasn't probably what you had in mind for option 5, but does it count?

No sorry Peebee I am looking for pictures of hearts or flowers.

[Wanda]

[Robin (Saturndoo)]
