The Seasonal Reading Challenge discussion

Have a book and don't know what tasks it may work for ? Ask here.

The Sari Shop Widow (aside from 5.10)

How about the one requiring "cloth?" I'll go find the number...20.6#2

or 30.2 #2 No E
or 25.10#3
or 25.9#1

gotta run...

thanks!!!

Also
5.4 (Fall 2016 5.4 author inititials SB are in CRANESBILL)
5.5 (the edition you linked to has 301 pages)
25.4 option 1 (author born in India)
25.8 if you have another book with title starting with H

30.2 doesn't work because "The" has an E.

thanks! (I'm going to use it for 25.10) - found it on Mt TBR and trying to reduce that pile

The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon - what task would work with this book?

Debbie wrote: "The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon - what task would work with this book?"

5.4 (Fits Fall 2016 task 5.6, 2 M's in author name)
5.5 (depending on which edition you're reading - the U.S. hardcover has 317 pages and the first paperback listed has 462.)
5.10 (book of your choice)
10.3 (genre Historical Fiction)
10.10 (genre Horror)
25.8 if you have another book with title starting with D
25.10 Option 3 (genre Historical Fiction)
25.10 Option 5 (snow on cover)
30.1 Option 3 Book 1 if you have another book with white text on cover

Diary of a Wimpy kid by Jeff Kinney for the challenge 5.3

Are you asking if this book will fit 5.3? In general, you need to ask this in the specific task help thread. This thread is for people to ask for ideas on where to fit a book.

I can tell you, though, that Diary of a Wimpy Kid does not qualify for the challenge at all based on its AR Bookfinder information.

What about the book "Dumplin" by Julie Murphy?

Thanks.

Thanks."

Debbie .. please provide a link to the book you are asking about.... the exact edition you are reading should be linked, and the tasks a book will fit may vary by the edition read.

Put it together with The Winter People (post 7) for Task 25.8 - one book starts with D and the other with W.

Other possibilities that don't include specific editions (page numbers or cover):
5.3 (Book #1 in series)
5.9 (first published in 2015)
5.10 (book of your choice)
25.10 Option 3 (genre Young Adult)

Born a Crime what task(tasks) would Trevor Noahs book work for?

Born A Crime - works for 10.5 (no L) and 15.5 Bingo (starts with B)

groovy. thanks much! :):)

Depending on how much of it is in South Africa, you could possibly also use it for 25.4 option 1

The Truth About Trump

Does this 1 fit any tasks?(hoping the reading challange will give me motivation to read it lol). its ok if it doesnt

There are some specifically 'history' tasks it fits for sure!
30.6#5
25.10#3

Had to go look them up...

ok thanks, i didnt see any when i was looking the other day but i maybe missed the 1s you are talking about

Also found
25.6#1 & 20.7#1 for author initials...

and answered the question as to why i missed them previously. I wasnt looking at many(just 1) of the multiple option 1s. thanks again guys :)

Would the book Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are? by Frans de Waal work for any of the task challenges?

clever people! where can I fit these in?

From Hell by Alan Moore (graphic novel)

Disgrace by Jussi Adler-Olsen

The Ghost Pirate's Treasure: Mystery of the Jaguar Warrior by Barbara Ivie Green

Off the top of my head...
From Hell is Historical Fiction 10.3
You'd have to check the rules for Graphic Novels...

also 25.10#1, 25.9#3
20.5#2
horror 10.10
5.5 etc

Disgrace is #2
25.11#5
10.5

Ghost is 'fantasy'
25.10#3 or 15.7
also 20.7
10.5
5.3 5.4 5.5 5.10

hurrah! so I've reshuffled some previously submitted books, and put Ghost & Disgrace to work.

Sadly I've already used - and can't see how to move the books - tasks that the From Hell graphic would work for :(

Thanks for suggestions!

If you've not used 5.4 Best laid plans, it would work for 5.4 in the Fall challenge with author initials of AM

The second author is Eddie Campbell so that would work for 5.1
572 pages works for 5.5
10.10 genre Horror (someone already said this)
15.3 book 2 (again using Eddie Campbell initials)
