Thanks!!

Is this green enough?

Is this OK for a green cover? -

I'll be reading (for a combination of C/D) for my other book.

Both are green enough

You only need to read one book for this task if your book fits C & D

Ooh I missed that part - thanks for pointing it out, Dlmrose!

What about ? I know it will work for author's name, but is the cover green enough to work for both options?

That edition doesn't look green, but the french edition does. If your edition is green, please state that when you post.

The edition I have is the one I posted. Kind of tinted green in places, but not nearly as green as the French edition. No worries, I was planning on using it as one of two books and using a different book as the second. Just figured it couldn't hurt to ask if it would count for two. :)

Is this green enough for a green cover?

Are these covers green enough?

Is this green enough?

yes (without my reading glasses the Macomber still looks green)

Sue T wrote: "Is this green enough? "

yes

If you like YA don't forget about the wonderful John Green

KAren - i'm debating reading Will grayson will grayson by him but not sure yet - I have a couple of other green options that i'm looking at

How about for cover color and word in title?

What about The Unthinkable Thoughts of Jacob Green

for the one book option (fits A & C)

or what about Green Angel fitting the same categories?

Fran wrote: "How about for cover color and word in title?"

That works as one book

Sassafrass wrote: "What about The Unthinkable Thoughts of Jacob Green

or what about [book:Green Angel|4106..."

Both work

Would by Amy Greene work for both B and C?

Since Green Angel works for both green in the title and the cover, would ? Thanks! :)

Lahni wrote: "Would by Amy Greene work for both B and C?"

Yes

Meghanly wrote: "Since Green Angel works for both green in the title and the cover, would ? Thanks! :)"

yes

Thanks! I'm usually not lucky enough to find one book that fills two options on my tbr!

Hi would this be enough green in the cover. I was hoping to to use this for A and C. Thanks.

green enough!

I just want to double check that will work for options C and D?

Angie wrote: "I just want to double check that will work for options C and D?"

That works

Would and work for Option C?

Aneeqah wrote: "Would and work for Option C?"

They would

Thanks!

Dlmrose wrote: "Sue T wrote: "Is this green enough? "

yes"

Thank you!

I'm thinking about option C to begin with. The problem is, I bought from a second hand shop. The copy I bought is hardback, but the dust cover is gone, and sans dust cover the book is covered in spring green-color cloth. Would this work? Do I need to take a photo and post it with my finished task post? Or is that just totally unacceptable?

Sorry, a green front board won't work

Okay--thanks!

Can we use the group read ? I had it on my to-read list and added it for something green before I realized it was a group read.

Sure, you may use a past Group Read or one of the two that you're not using for this season's 20.10

Thanks! Now what's the 20.10?
