Thanks Sandra!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

D.G. put up the ones you want considered and I'll let you know.

[D.G.]

I have two covers with horses, one with a tiny ship (but the book is set in the 15th century so no mechanized there) plus a book with a guy rowing a boat. I don't think any can be used under the 'mechanized' rule.

[Mary X]

Does this look like a train to anyone else but me?

DG, as long as the horses aren't being ridden bareback, they'd all qualify.

To mechanize - is to use tools ie harnesses, paddles, rigging etc.

Yes Mary, it looks like a train.

[Nichole]

Looks like a train to me.

Sandra, how about this ? They're not actually on the horse but it's saddled.

[Moondance]

I was assuming that a broom would work for this category until I saw the "mechanized". I do have car and motorcycle covers. Perhaps

[A book away from an episode of hoarders]

How do we feel about horses and ponies for this shelf?

Examples:

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Nichole, saddles work.

If someone was riding the broom it would work Cheryl or Reign of Blood is good.

[Nichole]

Thanks!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Cristina, 2nd one works. First one no.

[A book away from an episode of hoarders]

Thanks :)

[Mary X]

Good to know that saddled horses count. Although I have a train, car and motorcycle library ebooks to read anyway.

[D.G.]

Thanks, Sandra. In one cover, the horse is in shadow so I can't tell.

I found others but they have the transport is very small.



In the first one, there's a little red car; the second one has a guy in the distance with a motorcycle; in the third one, there are cabs in front of the diner.

But they are all so far away.

[Moondance]

Thanks, Sandra. My coworkers accuse me of broomriding episodes which is what brought it up. :-)

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

D.G. they're all fine.

[~Melissa~]

Can you see enough of the car that the boy is leaning on for it to count??

[Rachel-RN]

Just curious if would work since she's in the cart and being pushed. (Definitely not mechanized though)

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Spaceships, horses and broomsticks do count as mechanized transportation? Does that meán dragons, elephants and other creatures also count?

[D.G.]

Thanks Sandra! Now to decide what to read...

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yes Melissa.

Tricky one Rachel, the cart is a tool, but is it transportation? I think no for this one.

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

@Cristina, I adored series despite some misleadingly hokey covers. (The last book in series the author also has free on her website in ebook form).

[Lauren]

Does the cable car on the cover work ?

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yes Lauren :)

[Sallie(GeorgiaGirl)]

would ..work?

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yes Sallie

[Sallie(GeorgiaGirl)]

Thank you

[Hina]

For "Hit the Road" shelf, would this cover work? . The cover doens't show the full car, and just a bit of the tire...would that work? Its a long shot, but I thought I ask.

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yes that works Hina :)

[Nichole]

Shelf! Shelf! Shelf!

[Mary X]

Shelf!!

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Jupiters cock!
Please Move to Purpose, post shelf and spare no Romans!

But does it make your tongue more agreeable? Will the gods bless us with a shelf or will they rain shit upon us?

(Apologies, I watched 3 episodes last night as the Bringer of Rain warms the spirit)

[Nichole]

This is gonna be fun!! Lol :)

[Logan]

I really need to watch this show.

[Jenne]

Leave Sandra alone! She needs to go to bed so she can get up and call the shelf! :D

[Ezi]

Only if you are sharing in drink with Gannicus

Sandra may claim slumber once she tends to her flock and grant us our fondest desire: early shelf

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

I've a new favorite drink (don't laugh): yoo-hoo spiked with Marshmallow Vodka.

— although not likely Gannicus-approved.

(Baja Blast Mountain Dew with their County Fair Cotton Candy flavored vodka is also yummy...it was a good Friday night.)

[Ezi]

Seriously DA, that sounds a little gross? Does it Taste good, I am having a hard time imagining yoo hoo and Skyy vodka

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

It's marshmallow flavored vodka. And it's like a chocolate martini flavorwise with a hint of toasted marshmallow. Or maybe consider the yoo-hoo as if it was a replacement between the quality/flavor of creme de cacao or Godiva chocolate liqueur in cocktail recipes asking for those. Or as a graham-cracker-less s'mores martini.

Hard to get flavors across via text. Certainly nowhere near the quality of the Godiva chocolate liqueurs.

Okay. I love chocolate but don't like martinis. I'll just get a raspberry peach margarita

[Ezi]

Ok. It's time for shelf

Yep, luckily I did go to bed so Gannicus couldn't sway me into an early shelf :D

[Amy ~Lover of Books~]

Most likely these are a yes, but I am just checking to make sure they fit for the new shelf:
