Tineye is showing the first one as brown, very little yellow, but well over 40% yellow is Kindred in Death. Is that enough?


message 455: by Diane (new)

Diane | 957 comments I hate using tineye so many gradations of color that are called something else. What about:

Tooth and Nail (U.S. Marshals I.S.R. Interspecies Response, #1) by Patricia Logan

or

Cited to Death (Jamie Brodie Mystery, #1) by Meg Perry

or

Anson's Ambition (Heart of Harmony Grove #5) by Quinn Ward

Yellow enough??

Thanks Diane. People have shelved Born in Death (In Death, #23) by J.D. Robb and Indulgence in Death (In Death, #31) by J.D. Robb as yellow cover and they are the same style of cover so perhaps it is enough.

Diane | 957 comments Hey team, I just wanted to let you know I am off on a bit of a vacation tomorrow morning and home on Saturday. I will be reading while I am gone, but am not sure if I will be able to fill in any of the spreadsheets. I won't have my computer with me, just my phone. Rest assured I will catch everything up on Saturday or Sunday, well in advance of the end of the month (and the challenge!). Can't believe we are almost finished for another year.
