LOL Cyndee I just saw this. I was working on that book all week and so worried someone would do it before I finished! I just really wanted an extra rose lol.

Speaking of extra roses, I have pretty much nothing for scavenger roses this week, but I'll try and read a book or two just for the 'Old' task. It's harder than I thought!

From the task post: You will need a book published prior to August 10, 2009. Provide the publication date you are using, along with a link if it is a different edition than your original link.

I don't see an edition published prior to August 10, 2009 so I don't think this one is going to be counted. I am SO sorry Emeli!!

With those Scavenger Hunt roses, the additional qualifications have to be met for every task. So for instance this week, in order to qualify, the book either had to have all 4 of the "R" options that could have been chosen AND/OR have every single one of the tasks that was chosen for the duration of the challenge (B is for Beach ; A is for August ; C is for Consonant ; H is for History ; E is for Ear ; L is for Limited ; O is for Old ; R is for Roar). It looks like a few of yours came really close but still have a couple of those required tasks missing. But they still count for toward the rose totals for First Date, Team Date, and Serial Date!!
