Warren W. Wiersbe has a lot of smaller (just over 150 pages) books - so I will read one of those for 3 points. I have access to one on audiobook :-)
Hi ladies. Sorry to have dropped the ball on my back-up book for Round Three. I just added my book for Round Four which was two points.

Great Kimberley - HUGS
I just posted mine for this round. To be honest, if I hadn't committed to reading it, I would have quit halfway through. More bad language than I would have expected from a Biblical fiction novel published by a Christian publisher.Will try to get a backup in as well.

For round four, here's where we are at:Staci - posted
Sarita - posted
Kimberly - posted
Christy - posted
Tina
Ellie
Christine
And we currently have two back-ups (thank you Sarita!). Tina/Ellie/Christine, will you be posting? If not, looks like one more back-up is needed.
I can have another back up done tomorrow.But all my back ups is one pointers.
Not sure if we should message the team members a reminder?
I was trying to complete a one pointer as a backup, but don't think I will be able to finish it by tomorrow.
Sarita, you are amazing. One point is better than no points!I just looked back through the first three rounds and Tina, Ellie and Christine didn't participate. I think their plans changed and it's the four of us instead of seven. If someone wants to message them, totally fine with that. It just appears that they have decided not to participate.
Ladies, I'm planning to read
. I'm so thankful Melanie posted that list of colors, otherwise I would have been lost! There are a few colors from this cover that match the list - either dusty rose or dawn pink will qualify.And unless I'm missing something, I think the most points anyone will get per book is 1.
I agree it's one point for every book. I also think you can probably find a color that works on any cover.Here's a few that work by title/author:

Popping in as I saw your comment and just wanted to let you know that it is possible to get more than one point. There are colors with multiple D names (i.e. Deep Deco, Dark Dusty Rose, Delanes Dark Flesh, etc.).
Here are some pages that list colors to see what it looks like:

https://colorful.fandom.com/wiki/List...
I'm not going to be super picky about the cover color option. If it looks close and you think it is that color, it should be fine. :)
Glad that the page listing colors was helpful. :)

These are books I've finished/reading to be finished in this round.Please help if you see 2 point colours on the cover :-)

Nice job getting your book posted Kimberly! Looks like you just need to add the color that starts with "d" to your post.
Ladies, so sorry that I didn’t post a book this round. I have a book worth two points, but one of the backups listed in my spot was also worth two. Melanie has already talled our acores for this round, and I don't want to create extra work for her. Last round category has been posted...seems like it may be a challenge!
Thanks Christy! You could probably still post, but agree if it doesn't change the points to leave as is.
Here's the tip for this challenge from Melanie. Very helpful.The easiest way (in my opinion) to find a book for this category is to look at the tagged shelves of any book you want to read and see if you can find something.
For example, I want to read Riverbend Gap. I click on "genres" on the right side of the page and search the shelves. On the first page there is this shelf: "inspirational-romance", which would be one point...but there is also "2022-love-is-in-the-air-challenge", which would be two points for IS and IN. So I would choose that shelf and link to it: https://www.goodreads.com/work/shelve...

Nice finds Sarita! I'm probably going to wait and post early next week including a couple of back-ups if we need them.
I posted mine plus two back-ups. The frustrating thing is I had a book on my planned read list that was three points and I ran out of time. Oh well.
