❀Tea❀ (ttea) | 9632 comments I'll finally finish Deadhouse Gates (The Malazan Book of the Fallen, #2) by Steven Erikson tomorrow, but I can't promise it's going to be before round ending.

btw, cover is brown or it's too light for that?

Amy the book-bat (batkisses) | 914 comments I'll have another book finished in a couple hours.

It has a red cover or can be used for panther for the sloth mini

I can hold off and use it for wrath mini if you prefer. So excited for that one because mystery/thriller is my main genre :-)

I love it! I hadn't done a full reread in a while so I decided to start during the floor is lava challenge. Thankfully the last two books also have higher page counts (500+) so I'll get more points than I've been getting too!

I've read Dark Artifices but not The Infernal Devices! It's on my TBR list. I really liked The Dark Artifices though and now I'm dying for the The Wicked Powers series even though it won't come out for several more years.

Amy the book-bat (batkisses) | 914 comments Do we get more points for cover color than mini challenge? Just curious since Spectacle was used for cover color and has a bunch of mini challenge prompts that it fits.

I have a culinary mystery on deck for Wednesday.

LaurLa | 2395 comments We get the same points for cover color as for the mini challenge. And there isn't any bonuses this time for doing the mini challenge tasks, so when a book works for cover color, I've been choosing that so the task prompts can stay available for books that don't work for cover color.

Amy the book-bat (batkisses) | 914 comments OK... I was just wondering about that

I don't think there is enough blue to count for cover. Looks to me that body takes more space than background :)
