Oh wow I,didn't even see that on the c..."

I can spot cornbread a mile away. My southern upbringing has to be good for something. When I first moved across the ocean to England, I missed cornbread and my mom used to send me boxes of jiffy.

Happy Thanksgiving! I had to celebrate mine last Sunday. In the words of William DeVaughn, I'm thankful for what I got.

There is another version of the book that team Igor read with obvious cornbread squares on it.

I've got a book with cornbread in it. So I'll take the word in text. I'm excited that I will finally read Truth or Beard.

We've got Eni reading for the genre bonus, have any of the other bonuses been called? I couldn't see anything here but I haven't checked the bookd read thread.

Sorry, I'm pretty sure I ticked that when I finished that book because I'd forgotten it in my previous book. Guess I'm going to have to check after I save. My fat fingers probably unticked it as I was scrolling.

For cranberry or cornbread?"

Cranberry. Its the only bonus we are missing, I think."

I don't think anyone has claimed it.

Book Blood in Her Veins: Nineteen Stories from the World of Jane Yellowrock

Can we use, for the character name character, a title? In a book I'm reading the character is called Yaya as in grandmother, would that count? That's how she is listed in the case of characters.

Done. 😁

Task: The word mummies appears on page 240. "The ancients Greeks described them as red-haired or fair-haired with blue or gray eyes, and the mummies the archaeologists pulled out of the ancient grave sites matched with that phenotype."

Can we use a task book for a spell it out?
