I was wondering about that, too.
I think it would be good to have at least one reference, yes, to prove that the word is really in the text.
Thanks! :-)

ok, I'll edit my post with couple of dishes. Who knows, maybe monster is gourmet :P

I honestly have a hard time defining what Indigo is.
I'm not sure this isn't too much normal blue rather than indigo. I think it might need a little more of a purple touch and be a little darker to be considered indigo. :-/

I honestly don't know color shades out of normal ones like blue, red, green :P
I tried that color website and it said regal blue, but I'm not really sure that page would actually say indigo if it was or it would be some other blue or purple or whatever.
That's why I asked. Maybe someone is better with colors than me :P

There was no mention that plurals were allowed, and since we don't have many tasks where a specific word needs to be found, I'm thinking it has to be the exact same word.

Lol yes... I have trouble with the various shades as well. It's either the one colour or not but don't give me multiple shades and degrees with a different name each o.O

Opinions welcome!

Im bad with colors too. Have you checked Tineye for the colors?



I think it is a little dark for indigo. I generally think of indigo as a brighter blue that is a little purple. Tineye calls it Regal Blue (Blue).
I think indigo is half way between violet and blue, by definition.

I'm currently reading Magic Binds. I think magic can kill a whole lot of creatures unless magic is too generic?
I'll be reading The Bird and the Sword this week. Can be used for DAD.

I finished When Breath Becomes Air and I think the warning about crying at the end helped because I was not tearing. Without the warning and emotional preparation I think I would have cried.
My current books:
Reading:



Committed to reading:



Maybe/Hopefully soon:







If there are any that are more useful than others here let me know and I will fit them in first. I've got to work on finishing up my current reads and the Book of the Month. I'm going to be doing a lot of a little bit of this book and then on the the next book for a while. I'm glad one of my current reads is short stories because I can set it aside and come back to it when I'm not in the middle of a bunch of time restricted books.

June 3rd for that one. I have a different buddy read that starts tomorrow.

I'm sure we'll be able to make them fit for something one way or another! :-)
The green one is slotted in for the green Potions cover.
And the brown cover with 500+ pages would be cool of course.

Astronomy
We Are All Made of Stars
Care of Magical Creatures:


Defense Against Dark Arts
Iron Gold Do either of those have destroying powers?
Feedback Zombies?
The Vampire’s Fake Fiancée Vampires
The Shifter Romances The Writer Some shifter. Not sure which one yet.
Inkheart Dragons but I don't want to kill dragons
Herbology

Potions






My current book has dogs on the cover if we can think of something to do with that with transfiguration. There's a pumpkin on the cover of another book which we could use to tranform into something a la Cinderella. And a dragon on another cover.

Let's tranform the dog into a dragon! Please dont slay the dragon! I am against that too!

I like the first butterfly wings cover for the Magical Creature. It'll be an epic beast that eats gourmet food (already provided through a book read by Tea hehe).
And you know, if your purple cover had a little less purple in the middle, I'd consider that indigo.
Your indigo suggestion seems more blue.
Iron is deadly to the fae. So could definitely be used. Gold.. euh.. not sure. But we can use the iron in that title.
Whatever is clear, I'll slot in and then we'll see where we're at.

Awesome. And it sounds like we are all against slaying dragons so we're changing a dog into one. I approve.

Hahahaha a gourmet eating beast. Look at that! Expensive taste tsktsk
Alright, who here reads to be published ARCs??
I won't be of any help there because I have absolutely zero ARCs.

Thanks! :-D
We'll see what the others say, maybe someone else is happy to read an ARC as well (or has a deadline to do so hehe), but it's great to know that you could potentially cover all 3 if necessary.

Zombies could be poisoned, right? Even if you have to potentially pump it into your own brains before they devour it?
If so, we could pair that one with V's

Eta: Such a shame that defence has to be in the title, or that tool belt would have gone beautifully with a zombie bloodbath.

True that!
