Hey, Lynn, nice to see you. Hope all is going well for you.
Good to see you break the ice, Lynn!
Thanks Janice, I actually have more to post but took notice of your request for a max of 3 each time. Once I've got this bunch out of the way I will try and post after each book, but I am a bit of a bugger for reading several books before updating Goodreads.

Janice - I didn't get a tick after my previous post (message 19), is that because you missed it?
Sorry Lynn. I did miss it. But I have it now. :) For message 20 - all cover tasks need links to the cover. I looked at the book and couldn't find a bicycle on the cover. Then I realized you read the audiobook so went to Audible.com.
Cover tasks require that the item be the focus, prominent, and easily identified. I'm afraid this book doesn't fit. The bicycle is so tiny on the cover that you don't see it unless you look for it.
Are you able to slot it into another task? Do you have Card 17, Science Yay? This book is published by Penguin and would fit there.
I'm confused, the link I put is to the audible ..... anyway, it's irrelevant now :) I take your point about the bike being too small. I'll go and see which card I want to use instead.
Ok, I've decided to go with your suggestion as I did get that one right1. Badge 1, Book 11

You did - but I didn't see a bike on it at first glance, so I started looking at the other editions for a bike. Then I went to Audible just to see what they had for a cover. That's when I saw the bike.
But it's all moot now since you've assigned it to another task. AND, you have one more to go before you get your badge!! It's all good.

6. There are lips on the cover
7. As above
8. n/a
Janice - I'm not sure if this will qualify, as the lips aren't huge on the cover ..... but they are easily identifiable, so thought I'd ask. I await your verdict :)
Unfortunately, it doesn't qualify. At first look at the cover, I don't see the lips on the man and barely on the woman. I notice her glasses before I notice her lips. Can you use this for a different task?
No worries, I'm sure I'll find another reason for using it when I move onto the next badge challenge :)
Lynn wrote: "No worries, I'm sure I'll find another reason for using it when I move onto the next badge challenge :)"If it fits a slot for badge 3, go ahead and identify it now.
Ok, I have three to report ..... luckily I didn't get too far down this road :)
