2025: (Impossible) Solar System Challenge

[Ashley, The Tipsy Challenger]

Lexi, what do you mean by "claim multiple books for the same task"? I want to make sure I understand before I answer!

[Lexi]

Maybe I was reading it wrong, which is quite possible on the app, but I looked like some people had multiple books for the same task. So two different books read that both fulfilled anthology for example.

[Jenny]

I just reread it, but The Moral Landscape: How Science Can Determine Human Values is a brilliant book, and very gold.
I know I have one or two more gold covers on my shelves, but I cannot remember the titles right this second.

[Sammy]

NOOOOO!!! Not the Big Books challenge as a bonus during Turf wars!! That's just cruel! 😆

[Sammy]

I suspect I'll not get to the gold cover. Don't have any, and am not buying anything right now (on a book-buying ban until at least spring next year!). I've got one or two tasks every month so far that I'm just not going to be able to get around to without spending money on books I don't actually want to read, so I suspect I'm just not going to complete 100% this year.

I don't mind, this year has been pretty insane so far, and it will likely continue until well into 2026!

So, I looked and I think that the 2 people that have listed multiple books, might just be recording options, as there are no dates listed next to them as being finished books, but I will double check.

To answer, you can only use one book per task for the bonus challenge.

It doesn't need to be literal gold color - these colors are acceptable:

[Teddie]

I picked this up at a library book sale and have been waiting for September to read it - lol

[Lexi]

Great, thank you on both

Yeah, I figured that, but as far as I can recall I have nothing like that. (I do have Game of Thrones, but a very different cover!) Gold text I have coming out my ears, but gold covers are a problem.

Honestly though, I really don't mind missing a few out this year. If I haven't been able to bring myself to read a werewolf book yet when I had lots of flexible reading time, I very much doubt I will now that life is insane and I have less flexibility in what I'm reading because of certain challenges. 😆

I'm not gonna stress over leaving a handful of tasks undone at the end of the year. Plenty of other stuff to stress about without piling on 😂

[Lexi]

This is all I have that might be gold but it also just might be brown. Everything else is goldenrod as in yellow.

[Catherine]

Ooh the monthly challenge I completed before I even looked at what it was. That deserves an extra bonus😘

This month I am working on moving forward with my series and luckily this one is much further along. Sadly, this book makes me question if I should continue 😂

Is there a difference on Tineye between yellow and gold, teal and blue/green, purple and violet? Every book cover I'm testing because they look like the color to me are coming back not the named color and I'm about to tear my hair out...

[Sammy]

Tineye is colourblind!

I only ever use it to work out percentages, not colour. it's famously unreliable in that regard!

[Ashley, The Tipsy Challenger]

Everyone - you do not have to use tineye - I usually only use it to confirm what I already know because it makes me feel better - but feel free to trust your own eyes and judgement!

[Erin *Proud Book Hoarder*]

Yeah I don't like Tineye either

[C]

Thanks everyone! I have a notoriously bad relationship with Tineye too, but I try to work with it. It just never seems to do what I think it will do and I scream into the ether lol. 🙃

[bamaace83]

For the gold cover, I'm reading and it's on KU if anyone is still struggling to find a book. I also use tineye for just percentages.

[Richard]

Tineye...pronounced like Kanye 🤣
