Ongoing Interactive I Spy Cover Game

[Kathryn]

Thanks, Jan! I usually think of bigger brims with cowboy hats although I'm from the Midwest, so not totally familiar with different types of cowboy hats. Although we would like to get out of Illinois and we are hoping to go to Texas (Dallas area).

[Jillian]

I finished 40. Cowboy Hat Turn Coat/Jim Butcher 3/4/18 ★★★★

I can take 60. Skull with the next book Changes/Jim Butcher

new item: sword

[Jan, Moderator]

Thanks Jillian!

[Kathryn]

I finished 62, a ladies hat with Frontier Grit: The Unlikely True Stories of Daring Pioneer Women 3/2/18 ***. This was really an interesting read.

I can take #26 puppy with . Although Jack is not technically a puppy, he is also described as a brindled bulldog and that dog is definitely not a bulldog; looks more like a terrier. If you'll accept that, the new itemto look for is a train or train station.

Looks puppyish to me Kathryn!!

Yes, sorry. First I've planned to take another task, but decided against it, and with deleting the rest of the text my message got confusing, sorry! Finished and liked Cards on the Table

[Jan, Moderator]

Appreciate the clarification Rosa! I will mark it as completed.

I've changed my mind (again) :D and I will take a new task: #37 Apple(s) with Demon Bound by David Parkland

new task: I want for someone to spy the Earth, seen from out of space, not just as globe

[Jan, Moderator]

LOL...you are allowed to change your mind. That's a tough task Rosa - hope we have some space opera readers out there.

[[deleted user]]

I have faith. Worst case, I think I could take it myself if it's open for too long

[Jan, Moderator]

👍👍

[Kathryn]

I completed #26, a puppy with 3/8/18 ****. I'll have to check back later on.

[Jan, Moderator]

Thanks for the update Teri & Denis!

[Barb]

Finally finished my book for #50, cover with NO people or animals

Iced Under (Maine Clambake #5), by Barbara Ross, finished 3/13 ★★★★

[Barb]

Would a bus work for #49 (car or truck on cover)?

[Jan, Moderator]

Thanks for the update Barb! I'm not going to accept the bus. If it said vehicle I would have but let's keep looking for the car or truck.

[Barb]

That makes sense :) That's the closest thing I could find to any of my upcoming books, so I'll keep watching the thread.

[Teri-K]

I finished #15 Snake with Betrayal on the Border by Jill Elizabeth Nelson.

I can take #35 - Clothesline with clothes with by Missy Tippens.

New Task - Person in military uniform.

[Jan, Moderator]

Wow Teri! Thanks for taking one of the really hard ones :)

No Problem. I'm enjoying reading these books right now, so I sat down one night with OverDrive and scanned covers. That's how I found the snake, too. Plus it has me reading new authors, which is one of my goals this year. So it's good.

[Jennifer]

I finished #53 - Cover with something chocolate with .

Does this work for #59 Skyscraper/Tower: ? There is a castle tower in the background.

I'm reading a bunch of new cozy mysteries too this year. Making my way through first in series on kindle unlimited trying to find ones I want to continue with.

[Jan, Moderator]

Jennifer - I'll take that as a tower. Thanks for the update :)

I'll need a new task from you too!

Great!

New Task: A Calendar or Appointment book

Good idea. I realized last year I was rereading so many books, or just reading things by familiar authors, that I wanted to make myself branch out more this year. So far I've found some really good new authors, so it's paying off. I just needed to shake myself out of my comfort zone a bit.

[Teri-K]

I finished #35 - Clothesline with by Missy Tippens.

I can take #14 - Rainbow, with by Kathryn Springer.

Next Up: Doorway - with or without an actual door showing.

[Jan, Moderator]

Wow Teri! You are practically taking care of the whole list!

Jan wrote: "Wow Teri! You are practically taking care of the whole list!"

I'm on a reading jag. It will slow down at some point, though. :)

[Barb]

Is this fireplace big enough to work for #39?

[Jan, Moderator]

Yep - it sure is. It's all yours and you can give me something new to add to the list.

[Barb]

Great, thanks, Jan. Ummm ... let's add a skein/ball (or more than one) of yarn.

[Jan, Moderator]

Perfect! Thanks Barb :)

[Karen]

I finished #41 - small stream - with , The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale. Fun listen.

I can take #52 - sunglasses - with , Rosie Colored Glasses by Brianna Wolfson

New item: Let's do a tea kettle or a teapot.

[Jan, Moderator]

Great Karen! All updated :)

[Jillian]

I finished 60. Skull/Jillian Changes/Jim Butcher 3/19/18 ★★★

I think I can take 6. compass with The Rithmatist/Brandon Sanderson. I think right over the horse is a compass. If that does not work for compass then I can take 63. horse with the mechanical horse (though I have a book with a real horse as plan C : ).

new item:
clock

[Jan, Moderator]

I can see the compass Jillian - so you get to go with Plan A

:)

[Jillian]

Thanks, Jan!

[Karen]

I finished #52 - sunglasses - with , Rosie Colored Glasses by Brianna Wolfson. Didn't care for it but it was a quick read so I didn't have to invest a whole lot of time in it.

I don't have anything that matches right now - I'll keep an eye peeled!

[Jan, Moderator]

Appreciate the update Karen! Sorry it was a dud :(

[Teri-K]

I finished #14 - Rainbow with The Promise of Home by Kathryn Springer. It wasn't that great, but that rainbow helped me out with several challenge tasks, so that's OK. :)

I can take #49 - car or truck. I have a couple of books that will work, like
. or . I just don't know which one I'll be reading next.

New Task Horse-drawn vehicle. (Does not have to have a horse in the picture.)

[Jan, Moderator]

Thanks Teri-K. I will reserve car or truck for you. But please let me know as soon as you decide which book you will be using so I can add the cover.

I will. I'm going to dip into each of them before I decide. I'll get back to you soon. :)

[Teri-K]

I've decided to use by Gayle Roper for #49. It's starting pretty good.

Thanks for your patience. I didn't want to commit to another dud.

[Jan, Moderator]

LOL...totally understand Teri!! Thanks for the update :)

[Connie N.]

I finally finished #9: Stairway
