I agree with Andrea

Here is my review for this book:

https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Okay, how about we do GREEN, GREEN, GREEN, BLUE, GREEN. We know that both of these colors can't be in the 4th spot, so no matter what we get we'll know what's correct (Black pegs mean GREEN and a white peg means BLUE). And if we get no pegs, neither color will be in the code, so then we'll know the four colors and will be working on which one is duplicated. Does this sound good to everyone?

No. Any book, as long as it meets the book requirements HERE, work. :)

Caitlyn, I love how Colton Greene works for green and his name is Greene - lol

[Rita]

I'll read (Cover works for green)

[Andrea]

Megan, I'm so glad you figured out that color thing. It makes perfect sense now that you've explained it.

Thanks on the nonfiction is okay thing. I'll begin Believing God this week.

And that is super cool about Caitlyn's book. Greene/green. Serious laugh-out-loud moment!

Happy reading, everyone!

[Caitlyn]

Megan, sorry for the confusion! I was actually just trying to help Andrea when I mentioned From the Start, I actually read it myself a couple of weeks ago, I wasn't planning to use it for this challenge. I was just pointing out the different colors it would work for. Again, so sorry for the confusion! :D

I will post later today which book I will be reading for GREEN

[Kimberly]

Can I use the book that I reviewed yesterday
The cover has green trees all along it

[Caitlyn]

I will be reading

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

No problem Caitlyn, sorry I misunderstood. Glad you could find something that worked for green. :)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Kimberly wrote: "Can I use the book that I reviewed yesterday

No, the books have to started after colors have been decided.

[Kimberly]

OK I will start Gatehaven, then

[Kimberly]

Oh my goodness. It has been a long time since I have read a book this quickly. Here is my review: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

[Andrea]

Wow, Kimberly! Great job!

[Caitlyn]

I'm thinking about maybe changing my book. Does have enough Green on the cover that it would work? If not that's fine, I'll stick with my first book. Just Wondered! :)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Great job Kimberly! Your review made the book sound really good! I've added it to my tbr :)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Caitlyn, I think it's a close call with the green but it looks like enough...plus I'm pretty sure that the setting is Georgia and that would work too (as of the rule addition HERE).

[Caitlyn]

Great thanks, Megan! You are correct it does take place in Georgia, I wasn't aware of that rule change so thanks for bringing that to my attention, BTW that's a really neat rule addition! :)

I am officially changing my book to Hidden Agenda, can't wait to start it hopefully I will be able to tonight!!! :)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Looking forward to hearing what you think of it! I read the first book in the series, but haven't continued with the other two yet...but am planning on it. :)

I'm getting close to the end of my book. Oh my goodness. What a great read! Cannot believe I've never read any of Beth Moore's books before. Have any of you discovered her books yet? Which is your favorite?

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

So happy that you're enjoying your book, Andrea! I haven't read any books by Beth Moore, but I might give one a try sometime. :)

YAY! Glad you loved your book Caitlyn! I read the first one, which I loved, but just never continued with the series. I'm going to have to get caught up with the series now. :)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Rita, glad that you liked your book.

[Rita]

Andrea - I have quite a few of her books, but haven't read any of them yet.

[Andrea]

Oh, ladies, I highly recommend reading Beth Moore's books! I finished Believing God (review to come in just a few minutes), and I can't wait to get more of her titles! And her workbooks too. Life changing, let me tell you.

[Andrea]

Here's my review of Believing God. Definitely five stars!

Great! So glad you enjoyed it :)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Just posted our completed guess! Can't wait to see what we get :D

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Okay, we got nothing again...but this is a good thing because now we know the four colors and just have to figure out which one is duplicated! So I propose we do the following guess:

BLACK
YELLOW
ORANGE
BROWN
DUPLICATE (one of the four colors above, whichever works best for people)

Does this sound good to everyone?

[Rita]

Sounds good to me. I'll start looking for a book.

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

I know I have a book that works for yellow, plan on reading , but it might also work for another color (haven't checked yet).

[Caitlyn]

That sounds good to me. I plan on reading which would work for either Black or Brown.

Also just to let everyone know I have this book (Which would work for Orange because of the author's last name) to loan on Kindle in case anyone is interested in reading it and wants to borrow it. I haven't read it yet but I've heard it's a good mystery/suspense book! :)

[Andrea]

Up next for me is also . So perhaps Megan can read it for yellow and I could read it for orange? The cover features both colors equally. If that won't work, let me know. Or we could both read it for yellow to see if that's the duplicate. Let me know if this won't work and I need to find a different book.

We're getting closer, y'all! I'm so excited. Can't wait to see what our code is at the end.

[Rita]

I plan on reading (Title works for either Black or Brown.)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Our books work perfectly! We are able to leave the duplicate option open for Kimberly, so she can choose whichever of the four colors works best for her. :)

[Andrea]

I'll get started on mine tomorrow. Enjoy your books, ladies!

[Kimberly]

I'll read for brown (cover)

[Megan, ☘I Lost My Shoe ☘]

Kimberly wrote: "I'll read for brown (cover)"

I don't see any brown on the cover. Do you know if any of main characters first or last name begins with B or if the location of the story begins with B?

[Kimberly]

The top part of the cover is different shades of brown

[Kimberly]

Plus the bottom has the pier and sand

Thanks for explaining where it was! I kind of see it now, it just wasn't the exact shade I was looking for but brown does come in many different shades - lol :)

[Caitlyn]

Finished my book!
Here's my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[Kimberly]

Whew! That is such a relief lol

[Andrea]

Goodness, Caitlyn! Had some time on your hands lately? Great job, girl!

Anyone else making progress this weekend? I'm enjoying my book. It's making me laugh a lot, which I love.

Happy Resurrection Day!

[Rita]

I haven't started mine yet. I'm enjoying my current read (The Promise) so much, that I want to finish it first.
