Cover: sand and maybe bathing suit??


Words: sunglasses, bikini, and margarita"


Got you down for all 5 of those! I think there's enough of the bikini showing to work.

Berit said there's no minimum/maximum for each player...that it's a team effort. Also that we're now in a relationship, so we're to make it work. LOL! 😂

😂 Perfect! Thanks!

Is there a minimum or maximum each player needs to read for in this part of the challenge? Thanks!

Got them marked!

Michelle wrote: "How many books can we read?"


I'm going to ask in the Q&A to see if there is minimum/maximum.

Bobbi wrote: "I have body of water covered (no pun intended)

Same book also has horse, chips, and souvenir."


Got it! 😂

Michelle wrote: "I have a book where the mc is named max"


Yay! Maybe we can use that on what you think will be a harder word or, better yet, cover item to find.

Rushali wrote: "Q: Will this also work for cover item "a pair of sandals'?"


I think Berit would accept it. She's pretty easy-going, but to be on the safe side, I would post it in the Q&A and get a definite answer from her. 😊

Awesome...got them marked!

Bobbi wrote: "My book has:

12. Coffee
17. Hotel
18. Pool

and I'll be done with it either tonight or tomorrow"


Put your name by those!

Leslie wrote: "The book I'm reading now will work for 4. sand, 5. ocean, and 9. tequila."


Got you down for those!

For each book you read, you can claim up to 3 words that show up in the text and 2 that are represented on the cover. Does my example above help explain that at all?


If you read a book that has a character named Max, you can claim that in place of one of the words from our list.


I don't think there is a certain number of books required for this round. I think as long as everyone claims at least a word or two, we are good to go.


Does that help?
