It looks like only the skull is visible. We need to have at least half a skeleton visible. But I just have to ask, is this Kindle lendable? lol

[~~~N~~~]

I'll miss this group too :( Great group of amazing ladies

[Ashley]

I was thinking like a hole in the earth...

The skeleton is annoying me because there is a newish book out that I thought had a skeleton on the cover and I can't find it

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

Been planning to read The Way of Shadows for some time now... will this work for SHADOW? It's in plural form. They did accept ninth for nine... Thoughts Ash?

I love that book! Still thinking about all the onions they ate make me cringe though.

I'll use it for this instead of headstrong - headstrong should be easy to fill

[~~~N~~~]

Let me look through my stuff, but I'm sure I can find so.ething with a skeleton

What are all the unfinished and unclaimed tasks? The spreadsheet doesnt say what's open

First and second tabs :)

[~~~N~~~]

Thank you! I'm going to bookmark this.

P.S. I read half this book a couple months ago and stopped because i got busy, but I could restart from the beginning. The boat is made of bones (skeleton). Would it work? The Chosen

[~~~N~~~]

Oh, I can read Skulduggery Pleasant.

[Ashley]

Noa...that is some creepy boat! Either book works for skeleton...good finds :)

Ahhh I'm not sure - can you remember what's been said about other plurals?

[Ashley]

Yes shadows will be okay

[Kimberly]

What happens with the list of homeless books?

[Kimberly]

This book might work for hole?



But I have a bit to get through before I would be able to start it - so maybe I shouldn't commit?

[Ashley]

They can be used in the last challenge of WOBBLE

I'm trying to work my way through all the Anne McCaffrey books but i must admit some of them are not as good as i remember them being.

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

I barely read scifi. I' a very visual person so I'm not sure if the covers play a part. I buy lots of books just because I thought the cover pretty! I'm an easy target.

Task Fits:
Labour 2: Find the Ring - Read a book with a gold object on the cover - Lirael's golden hand is on the cover

Finished The Tutor
Fits: Door on cover

@Kathleen, started my book and I'm supposed to be reading for musician MC. I read for instrument on cover before and I'm assuming it just came up again. In that case, this book also works for it if needed.

[Kimberly]

I read Ramona and Beezus to my son... is that a cook that can be used for this challenge? Even as a homeless book? If so, I'll add it. I finished it last night.

Trying to get feedback about it being used for "Read a book with a shadow on the cover or in the title"

I'm supposed to be reading for it so I started The Way of Shadows but I cannot get into it, yet (I hope).

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

Ladies, let us welcome Katharine to the team! :D

No such thing as late to the party! ;)

[Nikki the Sapphired Book Dragon]

welcome Katharine! :-)

[~~~N~~~]

Yay, a new member! Welcome to the Plumed Basilisks :D

[~~~N~~~]

For the MC is a musician task, does the MC need to be a professional musician or can small performances throughout the book for fun count?

Finished Tournament of Losers
Fits: maybe MC is a musician

15% through the proper "musician" book I'm reading, but if Tournament of Losers counts then it can be used for instrument on cover

[Viji]

Nice to have you with us, Katherine.
