For option 3 Marble Cake multi cultural,
and
were on the Best Recent Multicultural Ya list. Would either of these work for multicultural? If not I could use Perfect Chemistry for the romance option.
Great task! Will this work for a white title?

will work for Multicultural or Romance.I don't see how
fits as multicultural, but it would work for Angel Food Cake.

Fabulous. I am eagerly awaiting the release of this book next month, and so far I hadn't found a slot for it.
Rosemary wrote: "Would The Poisonwood Bible count for multicultural because it is about Americans in Africa?"Yes, that will work.
I'm very excited to do this task. Love it!
I've picked a different book...
Will My Louisiana Sky work for the Angel Food Cake? (Because (view spoiler)?
Also, what is an Angel Food Cake and how do I make it? Otherwise I can't eat it ;).
yes, My Louisiana Sky works for angel food cake. Angel food cake is a really light (spongy) type cake made out of a lot of egg whites.
