message 53: by Kate (new)

Kate | 82 comments I have a question. For four of a kind, can it just be the element on the cover or could it also be in the title? For example, if the title of the book contains the word fire but there is no fire on the cover that wouldn't count?

I want to make sure I fully understand before I make my pick for June.

Below is the book I was thinking of reading but then I realized I didn't know if it would acutally qualify.

Born in Fire (Born In Trilogy, #1) by Nora Roberts Born in Fire by Nora Roberts

Hi Kate!
Great question! I envisioned the task as cover only when I did it, so I'm going to stick to that. I'm sorry! Title words won't work. Luckily.....your book has an alternate cover that shows land and sky so you are set! Any cover of the book you are reading will do, it doesn't have to be the exact edition you are reading :)

message 71: by Kate (new)

Kate | 82 comments It's the first and I already completed my challenge for this month. I just couldn't put the book down once I started it today. I both love and hate when that happens. Love because who doesn't love reading a book that consumes you so much that you just can't seem to stop. Hate because I still have to get up and work tomorrow morning.

I figured those in this group could relate to my reading woes. :)

Happy reading everyone!

I understand the staying up late woes! But it's worth it when it's a great book!

Hi Sally!

You don’t need to post anything in this thread - only if you want to :)
It’s fun to see what everyone rolls but it’s not required. Just be sure to update your original post where you are keeping track of everything.

Yes! It’s fine to use your roll as long as you rolled on time :)
No need to post here unless you feel like it. Just be sure to keep track in one post that has everything or on your own doc fine :)

You don’t need to post anything in this thread - only if you want to :)
It’s fun to see what everyone rolls but it’s not required. Just be sure to update your original post where you are keeping track of everything..."
