25.2. Jenn Renee's task:Out with the Old, In with the New... and it's Fire

Spring to me is a time where the old is replaced with the new, whether by spring cleaning or new flowers growing. Spring brings SRC in a new theme of Fire. Since the spring is a time for something new, the books you read for this task cannot be re-reads. In the spirt of the task, you are encouraged to choose at least one book by an author who is new to you.

Choose from the option below. You can use the same one twice or pick two different options. REQUIRED: Post the option(s) you chose.

1. Read a book whose author's first or last name starts with the letters F,I,R,E
2. Read a book with a red, yellow, or orange cover. At least half the book cover has to be one of these colors. REQUIRED: Post a link to the cover of the book
3. Read a book with the words, Flame, Fire, Blaze, Smoke, Hot, Burn, or Scorch in the title or subtitle. Plurals and variations ending in ED or ING are ok but not compounds.
4. Read a book that has a flame of any kind on the cover. REQUIRED: Post a link to the cover of the book

Would this work for Option 2? It's sort of a yellowish-orange!

Yes

[Jessica]

I'm considering this one for option 2 - not sure if it's orange enough:

[Kathy G.]

Would this be orange or yellow (or both?)

[★Meghan★]

I think I will do for option 2. Is this enough yellow/orange?

Yes

Would Shadowflame work for flame or should it be a stand alone word?

Also is this cover red enough?

Shadowflame would not work. No compound words.

Dayhunter will work for a red cover.

Thanks JennRenee, I don't want to be a pain, but for the author name option, you mean F,I,R, or E, not that the name has to be Fire____, is that correct? I read it to start with the single letter, then I re-read it!

[mstan]

Would this work for Option 2 (red/yellow/orange cover) - ? I am going to get the kindle version in any case, but the cover appears more acceptable/orange on the amazon site here than it does in the goodreads link above.

yes only one of the authors name first or last has to start with one of the letters in fire.

Beth NC wrote: "Would Fired Up work for fire?"

yes that will work.

[Lavinia]

JennRenee, is Kiss of Midnight sufficiently yellow/orange? (Looks like half to me...)

[Dee]

i think i'll split the difference and do a new to me author and finish up a series that i've been lagging on

Mind Fuck - Manna Francis (F) - option 1
- option 2

yes I will take it. Mention that it was approved in help thread when post, just in case.

[Becky]

Is When She Woke red enough? She is actually dyed red in the story, if that makes a difference.

Sorry the cover does not have enough red.

[Dee]

@BEcky - you could use it for the spring forward task - it is listed as dystopia - I read it this last challenge and enjoyed it

[Riya]

I just want to make sure that these 2 books will be acceptable for this.

For #3 i want to choose

For #4 i hope the following book will work

[Riya]

Would this book work for #2 of this task?

Daughter of smole and bone will work but on the Leftovers I only see smoke, no flame. SO this one would not work.

Would Firelight work for option 3 and
for option 2?

[JennRenee, Moderator]

redwall would work for option 2, but Firelight would not work for option 3. The words listed cannot be a compound word.
