I just finished Their Eyes Were Watching God which I put for a book in a rural area. I haven't come up with anything for Italy (kicking myself for finishing One Italian Summer last week).

I know that one well because that's always the one that comes up when I'm searching for my The StorytellerStoryteller on Goodreads. lol
Someone suggested The Summer I Turned Pretty for a book with a shell on the cover so I've got that going on audio while I work today and it should go fast.

I just finished You Should See Me in a Crown, so I’ll see what looks like a good fit. I haven’t figured out all the color coding on the plans page, and the size has gotten unwieldy for me.ETA: finished our 2nd mini roll!
I finished The Summer I Turned Pretty for a shell book. I am starting Finding Audrey for a "Madeline" book.
Yay! With that, we might be able to finish up TWO madeleines!! I'll finish up my Madeline book tonight, and will start my shell (eggshell) book after that.
Well I finished The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music and I ended up using it for set some place you'd like to visit.
I finished Asylum by Madeleine Roux... so ridiculous!! But with that we finished a madeleine! Yum! Now I need to go off and read some literary fiction to clear my brain...
I finished Cyclopedia Exotica and I used it for red cover - I went with purple to mark that we're on the third go around for the prompt.
Finished Our Darkest Night & updated the spreadsheet for A book set in Italy. We have made one Cannoli~

Finishing In Every Mirror She's Black today before book club, though!
I am finishing Goliath this morning, though it doesn't fit many useful prompts, but I'll slot it in somewhere.I should also finish Finding Audrey today too for a Madeline author.
I think I'll also pick up Love & Gelato for set in Italy. I have a lot of super fun reports to run today so should be able to get a lot of audiobook time in.

I finished Crewel World. At 243 pages, it just made it into the short book prompt. Starting another Mini Roll.
Emily, you beat me! I finished Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Tales from the Café and I used it for the important meal too.
I just finished Love & Gelato for another book set in Italy. I'm starting a 24 hour readathon later today, so will try to figure out how I can double up the prompts to work here too. One of my books for tonight I know is already too short for this because it is only 88 pages (why didn't they use a bigger font lol), but I will fit the others in where I can.

Even if the books don't count for prompts, you'll still be able to count the pages towards our sprinkle count.😀
I finished Eggs this morning before work. This weekend I will be finishing a book with a smile on the cover (cuz I need it to finish the Winter Challenge!), a book that takes place in France (can also go for a place I want to visit), a book that takes place in a rural area (can also be counted for a book with an important meal) and maybe a book with red on the cover.
So I'm reading What We Lose and I'm realizing that it's the third book I picked out to read this week that is all about someone losing their mother. I didn't mean to be so morbid.🤷♀️

I just finished off My Grandmother Asked Me To Tell You She's Sorry which gives us another completed Cannoli.
Just finished Confession of Copeland Cane. Put it as a New To Me Author for Cannoli 3.I may be able to finish Braiding Sweetgrass tomorrow. Otherwise will just try to get lots of sprinkles

I loved it!!!!!! It went in a lot of directions but I loved the prose. It felt like a friend telling me a story.
I finished Pieces of Her and finished off our 3rd Mini Roll. I doubt I will finish anything else today but you never know. I will update with my hours later! :)
I finished The Black Phone by Joe Hill for smiling on the cover (creepy smiles are still smiles 😂) and Feel Your Way Through by Kelsea Ballerini for a short book.Not this king I'm likely to finish anything else up today but will add pages. 😀
I will finish The Poet X but I don't know if I'll finish any of the other books I'm reading. Either way, With 2 Madeleines, 1 Focaccia, 3 Mini Rolls, 2 Cannolis, and at least 21 Sprinkles, Way to go team! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
I finished Nick and put it in Madeleines under the set in France prompt. The first part of the book is set in Parris and WWI France. Great reading all! Wish we could have used the sprinkles to help complete some more treats.
Did minimal reading unfortunately but realized I could move Confession of Copeland Cane to complete a focaccia (Cane is a flavor, right?) it was a pleasure reading with you all! Readathons are always the best weeks - a great excuse to be left alone with a book by friends and family!

My first thought when I saw your post was I'm reading that too! Then I realized it was a different The Storyteller. I'm reading The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music which is Dave Grohl memoirs. I'm not sure what I'm going to use it for.
