You can read as many or as few as you want. For example, if you find all 10 items in one book then you read only one, if you find 3 items in one book, another 5 in a second book and then 2 in a third, then you read 3 books. I found 5 items in one and another 5 in a different book so I will read 2.

You can claim items from books that you are reading from 12pm est on Monday to when the next item is called.
so if you start a book on Sunday and you have read to page 100 by noon on Monday you can claim items found in the book after page 100.

hope that helps.

Hina (hinaj) | 500 comments Awesome! The items I thought would have been harder to find, I found right away, the items that sounded easy, I still haven't come across it in my book.

Wanda (wanda71) | 334 comments Would freckled face be acceptable for freckles?


message 163: by Sam (new)

Sam (theliteraryhooker) Would shackles work for handcuffs? I'm also not sure if it counts because she's comparing her disability to shackles...

Yes

They would have to be shackles that immobilize the hands and arms. So, if her disability has to do with either of those I'll take it.

Jennifer H Wanda wrote: "Would having both arms and legs tied to a chair count for restraints or handcuffs?"

Unfortunately no. It needs to be an item like handcuffs not just rope.


message 177: by bamaace83 (new)

bamaace83 Do we have until Sunday night to finish finding words? I'm still searching for two. I might snag one of these books others have posted if my word doesn't show up soon.

Sam (theliteraryhooker) Would prisoners being "restrained against their will" count for handcuffs? I know it's kind of a stretch...haha.

Even better! I'm on the hunt for dandelion and cave. I'll be on a reading frenzy tonight and tomorrow.


message 185: by bamaace83 (new)

bamaace83 Anyone got a good short fast read for the word cave? I so thought it would be in my last book but wasn't. It's the only word I have left to find so far.


message 186: by [deleted user] (new)

No Place Like Oz has cave in it and it's a really enjoyable short read :O)


message 187: by bamaace83 (new)

bamaace83 Thanks! I'm going to see if I can find it now.


message 188: by [deleted user] (new)

Lots of interesting word choices this week :) Let the hunting begin!


message 189: by [deleted user] (new)

a couple of questions :)

for flag does it have to be the object or can it be a feeling like say: seeing the skulls sent up a red flag

and would this be ok for lawyer: the way he held himself seemed all most lawyer-ish.

Both of those will work

Lauren (laurenjberman) Does "pool" have to be a body of water or can it be a betting pool?


message 192: by [deleted user] (last edited Apr 14, 2014 09:26AM) (new)

also for pool is it just the swimming kind or can we use the game?

Kat, you read my mind :0)

Any type of pool will work just not pools, pooled or pooling

Sheila (sheilaj) | 1 comments I'm doing some searching - for fish do any or all of these work?


Fish (verb-any tense) - Mr. Bradley isn't changing his travel plans to accommodate your FISHING expedition. page 73

I pull out my wallet and fish the scrap of paper out.

Good fishing down there this month.

The second one will work. The other two are referring to fishing as the sport which is a noun.
