I have a vocabulary question: is a blanket only this thin, mostly woolen thing that you use on your couch or could you also call a duvet that you use to cover yourself in bed a blanket?
Rosa - a blanket would include both the throw you would use on the couch and the blanket, duvet or even quilt that you would use on your bed. Hope that helps....post a picture and I'll give you the yay or nay verdict on it.
thanks, Jan! I think they are lying on top of a duvet-style blanket:
but I haven't looked into the book yet, so I'm not ready to claim it if it fits because I'm not sure if I'm going to read it or not

I've started it and I'm going to read it. Not sure if I'm going to like it because I thought the female MC would be older and that the blurb refered to something in her past, but it's the only book on my TBR that fits with this challenge and I want to help finishing it (the R author doesn't hurt for my spell-outs, either)

with many thanks to my library!
they're just awesome. usually you could write book requests in a guestbook on their homepage, but since there was a major hack they had to put all down and make everything new and for now you can directly mail your wishes to the people who seem to order the books they buy for the overdrive library.
it's like a letter to the Christkind!! :D I sent in a huge list (was saving for the guestbook to come back) and they got me almost all of my wishes, yay!
edit: maybe my next request could be: anything (preferable crime, romance or non-fiction) with a microscope on the cover, lol

LOL...I'm glad that the library is being such a great help. With both you and their help we might get this one done.

Great Rosa!! Is that first book in that series you've read? I was looking at the interesting covers yesterday and there are a LOT of books in that series.
no, I've read a lot of books from Ngaio Marsh so far, you don't really have to read them in order, the side story is extremly small - like with Agatha Christie's Marple or Poirot
I like when you find series you don't have to read in order. It helps when you are looking for a certain series number. I will keep this one in mind.
I finally found a book with a microscope! Even though the challenge is archived I still want to finish it. I will take microscope with

I've read -- or listened to? I can't remember -- the first two books and have enjoyed them enough to continue. I like having the N author in my "stable" :)
by Sadie RyanThis would finish this challenge if you can find someone to read it! I don't have a Kindle so I can't help you, unfortunately! Looks good too!
Jan, I've lost track of what letter we're looking for next. Are we still on J? And I'm confused by Karen's comment (message 663), This would finish this challenge. Is this challenge ending?
Barb, this is the old I Spy challenge that I found a book for one of the incomplete tasks. I do think we are in J on the ABC I Spy challenge since I think my I-insects was the last letter claimed.Denise, maybe Jan will open up the three that were claimed but never got completed.
