This is original to SCC.
This is a title and cover hunt challenge based on 20 weird things we say. There are two levels to choose from. To complete the challenge you will need to read at least one book that matches each of the weird phrases below; however, you must match the book by a title word AND a cover item. For example: for the phrase "Just blowing smoke", you would need to match a book with a title word of "just", "blowing" or "smoke", PLUS a book with a cover that connects to this phrase (smoke on the cover, someone blowing a kiss, etc). You can use one book to fulfill both the title and cover item, or you can read two books - one for the title and another for the cover.
Silly Level: Two books each (one for title, one for cover)
Hilarious Level: One Book for both title and cover
Please Note: When matching title words, words must be exact.
The standard Challenge Guidelines apply.
