Me, too - I've been meaning to read this for ages, and there are a bunch of tasks that it fits - so I'm thinking that's a sign that it's time to read it!
Kathryn wrote: "Here are a couple I wanted to check on:b [b..."I will have to say no to the last three (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies fits the mythical creature, El Cuaderno de Noah is more lust looking at each other, and A Walk to Remember does not look like Mandy Moore is smiling.)

I went to the library thinking I could just browse around until I found a good looking book with a smile on the cover. No such luck! After walking around for half an hour I left without one! Who knew it would be so hard to find people smiling!?
I'm pretty sure this one will work
but what about this one?
Mod
- the guy on the right. When you blow it up, or look at it in person, it looks like a smile, although not a big happy grin.

Rearranging books. I guess this one is good.

Ok, the book I wanted to read is not available at my library, I was discussing my reading with a co-worker and she has this book
in her office, of course this cover is not the one she has, oh well don't know how to search for the cover she has but if you see it online somewhere there is a blonde girl on the front, it looks like she's similing but it is not really profound so I wanted to see about getting it approved. No big deal I might just look at the approved ones and see if one of them are at my library :)

When you search for the link under the add button it says other editions. If you click on that it will show you the other covers.
Amanda B. wrote: "Ok, the book I wanted to read is not available at my library, I was discussing my reading with a co-worker and she has this book in her office, of course this cover ..."Amanda if it is this copy:
then that is fine . It looks like she has a thinking-remembrance smile.
Kathryn wrote: "
Are any of those the covers she has?"
Yes it's the second one you put up! :)
Meghan wrote: "Amanda B. wrote: "Ok, the book I wanted to read is not available at my library, I was discussing my reading with a co-worker and she has this book in her office, of ..."That's the cover! So I can read it! yeah! :) the little things that make you happy LOL I'm having more fun finding books to read I'm glad I joined in just in time for the fall challenge!
kiki - welcome! wish I thought to keep the hankies nearby for that one.
Amanda B. wrote: "Meghan wrote: "Amanda B. wrote: "Ok, the book I wanted to read is not available at my library, I was discussing my reading with a co-worker and she has this book in ..."This is one of my favorite books. I am thinking of reading it for the task about having only two books on the deserted island.
Kathryn wrote: "Amanda B. wrote: "Meghan wrote: "Amanda B. wrote: "Ok, the book I wanted to read is not available at my library, I was discussing my reading with a co-worker and she has this book [bookcover:Redeem..."That's what my co-worker said so now my interest is definately piqued. Maybe I'll read it next, i need to start working on my bigger point tasks :)
I would like to use this one, but wanted to double check. On goodreads it looks like she just has her b**** face on but on google images I found a larger image and the one side is definitely tugging up into an evil smirk. I searched "reese witherspoon vanity fair" to find the image if you want to check it as well.
Madeline wrote: "I would like to use this one, but wanted to double check.

If you click on the image from the book page the picture is big enough that you can see it.
I'd like to use this book for part B, I feel like she has a knowing smirk on her face, heading towards a smile...let me know if it's okay :) Thanks!
This one looks obvious to me for part B, but I just want to double check to be sure:
Hi Meghan! Will this one work for part b? Thanks!
Leigh wrote: "I'd like to use this book for part B, I feel like she has a knowing smirk on her face, heading towards a smile...let me know if it's okay :) Thanks!"I will say yes I can see the dimple on the right side
Diane wrote: "This one looks obvious to me for part B, but I just want to double check to be sure:"Yes passes as a scared smile
krisabee wrote: "Hi Meghan! Will this one work for part b? Thanks!"She looks like the whole screaming smile. I can even see a dimple so yes.

Meghan, I would like to read The Children by Edith Wharton for this task - the GR image is pretty small, but I found this on the Interwebs - will you accept that? All three girls are smiling, but very subtly and softly.I tried to find the actual John Singer Sargent painting the cover details, but am failing miserably.
That is fine El. I can see the smile on the Interwebs version.

"Yes that will work. She has a remembering a funny thought smile. and the one I saw on google images has the blonde girl in the background smiling.

Cool thanks! :)
Does this one count as a smile?
Thanks!
Sorry on the delayed response guys...alright here we go.
