How would this work LisaKay? Could we still read books and have them counted if they didn't meet the cover color requirement?

Definitely, all books read would count, Cathie!

I was thinking of something a little different than a Read-a-Thon within hours. More like a, how many _____ colored bookcovers can you read in a week?

[[deleted user]]

sure it would be fun to have challenges within the team challnge :D

[Lisa Kay]

Well, what color do you want to nominate for our first One Week Color Scavenger Hunt, Karen?


Color Nominations
Blue

Blue

[Lisa Kay]

Yeah, blue is my favorite color. ☺

[[deleted user]]

my fave color's red but I have a lot of blue books to read, which color will you be nominating Lisa?

[Lisa Kay]

Well, I'm just going to second your nom, Karen. LOL! Though, I do love red, too. I have a red Pinterest board, as well as a blue.

Let's see what others want and, if necessary, I'll post a poll.

[Lisa Kay]

We are currently in the lead by about four books.

[Lisa Kay]

I have one to post, too. But I wanted to write the review first.

Love Wilbur Smith ---
River God was excellent --- but I really, really like his Courtney saga books as well. Had the awesome experience of reading some of them will travelling around South Africa/Namibia (where some of them are set).

[Midu]

wow,JoLene! that must have been awesome!

[✿Claire✿]

I'd be happy with blue books :)
I just came across the post where someone commented on how we were a chatty group, thought you might like to know we have the most posts by a long way!! :)
Exams are over now so I'm going to try and finish the books I'm on over the next couple of days and start something really interesting :)

[Lisa Kay]

Yes, we chat the most; B the least...but hey are often in the lead. But, we over take them on a regular basis.

[Vikki]

I think it's gonna be a tight challenge for who wins it...

[Lisa Kay]

Yup. That's what we want. ☺

[Melanie]

I'm good with blue or red for the challenge. Sounds fun! When would it start?

[Melanie]

Oh, and I finished book #12 yesterday: .

[Julianne]

I don't always join in the chatting but I do like being part of the chatty group.

[Midu]

so, anybody seen Snow White & the Huntsman? the ending sucked! I put up with the movie hoping she'd end up with Chris but it was a whole lotta waste of time!

[✿Claire✿]

I didn't mean it in a bad way!! I love the chat, I think it's much more fun when people talk rather than just read :)

[Krystal]

I have 5 whole days off work! I'm guessing I'm gonna get done this book tonight or maybe tomorrow :D

I saw it at the cinema last year... having a complete blonde moment about the ending though...

[JoLene]

Ending might have sucked and I'm not really a Kristin Stewart fan, but the costumes and production were pretty incredible.

Midu wrote: "Barbara, you read Wilbur Smith too?"

I love Wilbur Smith and actually three of his books on tap for 2013.

Not really. Too many books to read for other challenges and picking a certain color book is going to be really difficult.

[Lisa Kay]

Yes. Hated the ending.

Okay, Barbara★, just keep reading. ☺

Yes I saw it when it was in cinema - last year in spring I think. Liked the story and the whole dark and gritty atmosphere. Hated Kristin Stewart's acting even more than the ending. (Sorry to all k-stew fans). :)

Color Nominations
Blue"

Blue is my fav color so I support the nomination.
Altough I just started reading one chunkster ( ) so I don't know how many books will I manage to read...

That sounds like fun. I'm good with blue too.

[Skandia]

And I have so many red covered books waiting to be read in Feb ... :)
Next time, then.

[[deleted user]]

Ok . So is blue final?
When can we start??????


We will have red next time Skandia?

[Skandia]

It's ok, Karen. Just go with blue ya'll.
I can dig up a couple of bluish books, too.

By the way, do you think this one is blue/ish ?

[Midu]

@Barbara:
which ones?

[Midu]

such a waste of Chris Hemsworth too hehehe
agree, costumes and Sharon Stone were both amazing!

[✿Claire✿]

Finally finished , can't recommend it though, seemed to take forever to get through. Going to read next and try and get a bit further with this weekend.

EDIT: Just discovered Dead[ish] won't count but it's been sitting on my kindle for a while!

[Midu]

finished , starting

Yes, it is navy blue, my favorite blue. ☺

[Lisa Kay]

Of course, you can read anything you want during this time. This is just a challenge within a challenge.

How about this:

Week			Colors
Jan. 27-Feb. 02		Blue
Feb. 03-Feb. 09		Red
Feb. 10-Feb. 16		???
Feb. 17-Feb. 23		???

[[deleted user]]

When can we stsrt?????????

[Lisa Kay]

January 27?

[Lisa Kay]

Sunday to Saturday... or do you want to start sooner, Karen?

[✿Claire✿]

Another colour suggestion for sometime in Feb would be pink or would that be best as part of the 'red week'.

I can't wait to start :)

[[deleted user]]

Well I will not be reading a blue book today , so I guess Sunday to Saturday is great :)

[Cathie]

Awww no fair...pout....I just finished reading my blue books earlier this week Send Me a Sign and Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter. I probably won't be doing this cover color challenge, but I'll keep reading and adding to the total :-)

No, I think of pink as separate from red. How about purple, also? In keeping with Valentine Day's colors.

Maybe you could enter in a week-by-week basis, if you don't want to miss out on the fun?

[Lisa Kay]

How's this looking...

Valentine's Day Colors!
