Apoorv  Moghe (goodreadscomapoorv) | 32 comments .. and again that one last item, nagging me !
The bumbleebee buzzing around and I am not able to grab it :P ;)


message 154: by Blueberry (new)

Blueberry (blueberry1) found wind chimes. Now only saxophone and buckler to go. I had hopes to find buckler in Outlander by Diana Gabaldon but it didn't happen.


message 155: by Kelly B (new)

Kelly B (kellybey) | 233 comments Buckler's a tough one! I haven't found it yet either. I probably need to start reading more historical fiction if I want to cross it off my list;-).

MK (wisny) | 2579 comments Wind chimes is my bugaboo! I need a beach read, or something :)

Kelly B (kellybey) | 233 comments Nathan, this is perfect timing! I literally just came across an amputee in the book I'm reading.

Yay! Thx, Nathan :). And, welcome! Adding your items to the list.

Kelly, lol, now THAT is coincidence!


message 161: by Connie (new)

Connie Cote Finally got back in the reading groove and updated my list. Still have a long way to go!


message 162: by MK (new)

MK (wisny) | 2579 comments Welcome back, Connie. You've been missed for sure!


message 163: by Kelly B (new)

Kelly B (kellybey) | 233 comments Rattlesnake, found!

Four more to go....


message 164: by Kelly B (new)

Kelly B (kellybey) | 233 comments I'm still working on this:-). I just haven't found any for a bit.

The book I'm reading now had a character drop a coffee cup on the floor, and then the character notices the coffee cup is UNBROKEN! I really thought I could cross off broken coffee cup for a second there;-).


message 165: by Maarit (new)

Maarit | 240 comments Three more to go as I found treasure. Quilt, windchimes and scaffold where are you hiding?


message 166: by Kelly B (new)

Kelly B (kellybey) | 233 comments Great job!! I've got four more to go yet:-).


message 167: by Frances (new)

Frances Macknight | 21 comments Hilary Mantel's "Bring up the Bodies " has the scaffold .


message 168: by Maarit (last edited Aug 16, 2014 01:05AM) (new)

Maarit | 240 comments Thanks for the tip, Frances, now I just need to find that book somewhere first :D. (Aaaand it's done, now I just should get myself to the library someday).


message 169: by Connie (new)

Connie Cote Finally took the time to do some updating! Now I am just missing treasure, fried chicken and a paintbrush.


message 170: by Maarit (new)

Maarit | 240 comments Finally found a quilt, so that leaves me with scaffolding, which has proved to be the most difficult to find (along with a baseball from board number 1, which is the last one for me in that).


message 171: by Connie (new)

Connie Cote Anyone got any ideas for where to find treasure,fried chicken or paintbrush?

Thanks!


message 173: by Connie (new)

Connie Cote Finally found treasure and paintbrush! Now I just need fried chicken!


message 174: by Connie (new)

Connie Cote I did it! My last one was fried chicken and Infound it in Generation X. This was so much fun.


message 175: by Maarit (new)

Maarit | 240 comments And I finished it! Finally found scaffolding, which was the last item on my list. Board 1 is still missing baseball and I doubt I'll find it before the year ends.

Congrats on finishing the challenge, Maarit!


message 177: by Blueberry (new)

Blueberry (blueberry1) Yeah Connie and Maarit! I'm still looking for a buckler and a saxophone. I think on board 1 I need a motorcycle ride.

I can't wait to do another one. Maybe a Christmas one would be cool!


message 178: by Nathan (new)

Nathan | 302 comments I'm still missing four and probably won't find them all before the end of the year, but I came across fried chicken today on a bus to Scranton in the novel Middlesex.


message 179: by Blueberry (new)

Blueberry (blueberry1) I got buckler !!! Now I only have saxophone left. Haha 10? months later.
