List chosen by PepperPot

Rebel Queen - Michelle Moran Jan 31/16 4.5✰
1. Boot (as in footwear only; plural ok) p. 235
Her waist appeared unusually small, and her entire dress was green, like the hat on her head and the trim on her boots.
2. Bowl (plural ok; all others not ok)p. 9
I looked up at Father, with his bald head gleaming like a polished bowl in the sun, and wrote: “Will I always be in purdah, even when I’m grown?”
3. Candy (must be exact) p. 354
A piece of candy.
4. Drank (must be exact) p. 9
All I knew was that I couldn’t play outside like the boys who drank juice from hairy coconut husks and staged mock battles with broken shoots of bamboo.
5. Drive (must be exact)p. 152
And I hope those men drive the British from here to the sea.”
7. Glasses (must be exact) p. 263
And the glasses were so wide that a person could place a fist inside of them.
8. Horse (plural ok; all others not ok)p. 47
“I know you’re afraid to see her on a horse, but we’ll find a gelding before we give her a stallion.
9. Married (must be exact) p. 11

Hidden Gem - India Lee Jan 31/16 3✰
6. Foam (foaming ok; all others not ok) p. 133
Of all people, I deserved to be present at a full security meltdown that left Queen Bee and Tyler Chase unprotected amongst a horde of rabid fans (whom I hear were foaming at the mouth and becoming borderline feral).
10. Museum (plural ok; all others not ok) p. 12
For Mira, Gemma bought a print of their favorite painting from the Dali museum, Museo Picasso and the Fundació Joan Miró – even though Mira probably had friends who could buy her the real things.
