10.9 - Colorful Captions
Read a book where individual words or letters in the title are at least 2 different colors on the cover. Shades of color count as one color. The two colors must appear in the title. Subtitles do not count. Required: Include the cover when you post.
Ex:

These work:

These won't work:

- need 2 different colors
- outlines don't work, individual words or letters must be different colors
- authors & subtitled do not count. Letters in the title must be different colors.

This thread is now open!

Does this count for 2 colors?

No, sorry, Kathy. It needs to be two different colors. I'll clarify that in the task description.

Oh- Thanks

Is there a list for this or more option choices?

If anyone likes Patterson, is a good choice!

I don't know if it's good or not, but if anyone needs an idea I'm planning on reading .

some of the janet evanovich books have different colored titles.

I got one that will work -

Sorry, Anne, the title of is all the same color.

I haven't seen a list specifically for this, but if you go to your GRs shelves (or those of someone with a lot of books) and click on the four squares on the right-hand side you'll get a bunch of book covers.

Okay dokie, then how about: ?

There you go! Any of those will work.

I'm hoping the colors in the title are clearly enough differentiated to see them on this cover:

I am going to read Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock by Matthew Quick

Will any of these titles work?

It looks like they're grey and blue to me. That'll work!

Rhonda wrote: "Will any of these titles work? "

All of those work.

Is this good?

Deborah wrote: " Is this good?"

Yes, that works!

Would this one work?

Can I get a ruling on this one?



It seems a little different than the other examples, since each individual letter is two colors (yellow and purple). If it doesn't work for that reason, I'll find somewhere else to slot it, but figured it was worth asking.

Yes, that works.

Since the yellow is much more substantial than just an outline, I'll take it. When you post the books for points, though, please mention that it was approved in the help thread so that DLMRose doesn't have to rethink it.

Here are some I found on my shelves.

- The Canadian and Australian editions also look to have two colors in the title.
- Most of the original Harry Potter covers (both from the US and the UK) work for this. The only ones that don't are the U.S. Order of the Phoenix and the UK Deathly Hallows.

I think these are all okay:



- I think these are far enough apart to not be considered shades, I would call it yellow to orange!

Vicky wrote: "Here are some I found on my shelves..."

I would call yellow and orange, too, so that works. However, appears to be two shade of pink. The only other one that won't work is . Subtitles don't count and Zombies is all one color. Other than that, the other ones are great examples!

I knew I would miss one with a subtitle, lol!

My copy of One Day is definitely orange and pink, the image on GR is kind of faded. I don't want to change the image on GR to this one because it's a copy of a bent book and looks terrible - but here's another image from Amazon that shows the colors better.

Will be ok?

You could use that one as long as that cover is included in the post.

Yep, that works.

does work??

Chel-c wrote: "does work??"

No, sorry, outlines won't work. Individual words or letters have to be two different colors.

would this work.

JennRenee wrote: "would this work."

I'll take the ampersand as a substitute for "and." So, yes, that works. Just let DLMRose know that it was approved when you post so she doesn't have to rethink it.

Yes, that works.

Liora wrote: "Are these different enough colors? "

They look different to me.

Yes, that would work.

Approval please (sorry to keep asking, I keep moving books around to different tasks) -
