Babi Ngepet
200 to 299
Black cover (>50%)
Author initials in SWINE
Rich MC
Something is stolen


White enough? It's my next-up, and will fit the 200-299, but if it can be used to finish off the Cretan Bull, even better :D
I think white enough :) doesn't say 90% white, so the default 50% works for me, and that cover passes :)

1. 200 to 299
2. MPG Fantasy
3. Set on an island
4. white circle on cover
5. MC gets lost

we could use your Murderbot book for the prompt "MC is unusually strong", no?
I mean, he IS, compared to mere humans. :)
hurrah!
I'm going to be finishing off Kaikeyi (no task) today, and then Phoenix (PH title)
I did wonder if
(finished earlier today) would work for the reflected item on cover - Jane is looking into the water, and we see her Beast self reflected back.... ?

supporting what Sammy says 😊
given no other editions, I might be feeling okay ish about it?
In general I wouldn't love it, and would suggest using the default page count, but.....
really ambivalent, is what I'm saying, but could be swayed either way and then make a passionate case!

I've updated our monster info :)

Honestly, the wheels loved the 800+ page monsters. It's a bit disturbing that it was all wheels and multiple teams

Ah, this is such a relief! 😚😮💨

On the less bright side, I got ourselves Argus with 500-650 page count (which I can cover, BTW).
Yes, these wheels are out to get us all.
ARGUS
1. 500 to 650
2. at least 2 pairs of eyes visible on cover
3. rock on cover
4. character works in protective profession (e.g., police, security guard, bodyguard)
5. "olive" found in text

Story of my life 😂"
Ahh, a life of disappointments. 😅
Just checked, my 600+ book also has "olive" in text.
Spun us a new literary one...
Protomolecule (Expanse)
1 450+
2 Form of hivemind in the book
3 Tagged "Series-to-read" at least 10 times - must be new to you series
4 "microorganism" or "microbe" in text
5 A book or series that has been made into a graphic novel

I'd read the next expanse book to cover a few of those, but it would be a week or so before I get around to it, and probably a week at least to actually read it. So if anyone can grab stuff in the meantime, please do :)



Do we think it works for 'rock on cover'? it says 'rock', not 'a rock'... 😉


oooh! non-literal rocks!
how about this interpretation?
big ol' "rock" on her finger ??
(I've just finished it)
