Quick question about the challenge, well a few questions, can the same book be used in different challenges? And is there a limit on how many books for each challenge?

[Tanya]

You can use one book for up to two challenges and after you have completed all of them, you can start over and get bonus points

For the part to read a book with red white or blue, I'm assuming at least one of these colours have to be on the cover correct? Because I am currently reading Anne of Green Gables, and the cover is very colourful and includes all 3 colours on the cover(you can check out the cover under my currently reading shelf) so would AOGG count for 2 of the tasks, a Canadian book (set in Canada and author is Canadian) and the cover colours as I just explained.

[Tanya]

Yes it would count for two Kasia, the colour challenge can have one or all of the colours.
