15.7 - See the Light

August 7 is National Lighthouse Day. Read a book with the word "lighthouse" in the title, subtitle or series name OR with a lighthouse on the cover. Plurals and possessives work, but no other variations.
ex. The Light Between Oceans by M.L. Stedman The Edge of the Earth by Christina Schwarz
Required: If using the cover option include the cover in your post.

There's a lighthouse there, so that will work. None of the editions have page count information listed on Goodreads, though. So make sure you resolve that issue before you claim the book for points. You can do that by asking in the librarian thread:Anyone with librarian status....

Thanks! I'll check the page count myself as I have librarian status. If I can't find any info, I'll ask in the e-book verification thread

Deedee | 2348 comments The series title for Flesh and Spirit is "Lighthouse". Would that work for this task? Thanks

Task description says title, subtitle or series name so yes, that would work.

Melissa (balletbookworm) | 915 comments I was wondering if Classic Penguin Cover to Cover by Paul Buckley would work for this task - if you enlarge the cover, there's a small red lighthouse midway down the right side of the cover.

The larger question is that this book is listed as an "Art" book so I wanted to get a moderator ruling before posting it for points. I do think this has about as much written component as a graphic novel - each cover design is accompanied by an essay describing the process of making that cover so it comes out to about half photographs/pictures and half written component.

Thanks!
