OK I'll ask away on the misc. group would words like drum or violin work or does it actually need to be worded musical instrument. Same with fruit - does apple or banana cover that. Same with ER Vehicle, cop car, firetruck, ambulance?

Any instrument,fruit,or ER vehicle works

But I will ask Dawn what she thinks

This is what Dawn says

For insturment the actual insturment needs to be mentioned not orchestra or band.

Fruit needs to be the actual fruit too, not something like her peach toned skin.

Emergency vehicles would be police car, fire truck, ambulance, not sure what else would work here.

For Tail~Can it be either paranormal human or animal?

Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "For Tail~Can it be either paranormal human or animal?"

Yes to both. It is a body part though so tail of an airplane would not work.

here is what Dawn said also for body part

also for body parts if they are on the cover they need to be bare and visible. For example toes can't be covered by socks or shoes.

Thank you both for answering!

like for shoulder could we use it this way...

"Don't try to "shoulder" your way into my affairs?"

For cake,
would you accept, she was shaking her "cakes" like it was her birthday?

Rain:
He just threw up the benjamins and make it "rain" on them

(yes, this is from the same book---gotta love the thugs)

I think is has to be the body part, but I emailed Dawn and is what she thinks

I think the rain one would work but the cake, but I emailed Dawn to see what she thinks

Thank you Lizz, but please don't worry about it. I will find better ones. We got time, so not a biggie.

Dawn said she would take all three.

Just to try to clarify the body part comments. If it is a picture on the cover you are using, then it needs to really be the body part. If it is in the text of the book you can just find the word or concept.

Would soft curling hair work for curly hair?

Jennifer wrote: "Would soft curling hair work for curly hair?"

Yes, any level of curlyness, as long as it is stated as curls not waves.

I was wondering if "hoodie" would work for "hood"? It is an article of clothing that contains a hood but wanted to double check.

Thanks Dawn!

Definitly.

Dawn does it have to be an "actual" tie or the word tie in another context ok?

For example my book has elastic hair ties.

It needs to be the article of clothing tie. I suppose Men's necktie would be what I envisioned but I would take cravat or one of those womens scarves pinned or knotted around the neck (not sure if they have a name).

Bow tie, clip on, bolo tie will all work too.

Ok thanks!

I bet you are having a busy day Jenne. Now that the game is afoot I would like a couople of item approvals

for socks - nylons, pantyhose, hose?
for rainbow - an example. the prism created rainbows on the walls?

Yes, nylons, pantyhose, hose, stockings would all work for socks, they are all clothing designed for the foot.

For the weather items I will take naturally occuring weather or man made weather. Rainbows from a prism, fog from a machine, lightning from magic etc are all fine.

Great thanks

Dawn, will this count for curly hair?

He pushed a curly strand of brown hair back from his forehead, and I instinctively held my breath.

It comes from:

TIE: On a jacket? will that work please?

I'm trying to picture a tie on a jacket. I'm not sure I understand it. Like tying the belt on a jacket maybe? Can you give me a sentence or two so I can see what you are reading.

A nnie tightened the tie of her jacket around her waist

Ok, I am going to accept it. Based on the fact I did not specify Neck Tie, and it is referred to as a tie on clothing. Even if I'd call it a belt.

It is not what I had intended but I was not specific enough so go ahead and take it.

Had to add the book to my TBR.

Would "eyes narrowed against the summer sun" work for sunshine?

Yes.

So a rope tie will be acceptable?

Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "So a rope tie will be acceptable?"

As in a tie made of rope being worn as an article of clothing? Odd to me but I suppose it would.

Using rope to tie someones hands is not, it has to be clothing.

Thanks Dawn! I know what you mean, because I immediately Thought you meant Tie as in Neck tie. I can change books no worries, because I do have books with neck ties in them, but thought Id ask.

Love the new Drama Queen, Kathy!

Will you take this for tie?
There was, of course, gold jewelry and a colorful red, orange and purple Hermes scarf looped around her neck.

scarf looped around her neck would work as a tie.

Thanks Dyllan! It was suitable for the moment... on one of my other groups, one of the girls was telling me I was a drama queen, so just had to go with it!LOl, bit naughty really!

You can't deny the bad girl streak ;)

Random clarification:

Most items listed are sigular, and I would take mutiples. But I wanted to point out two items (Boots and Eyes) are plural. You need to find a reference to the plural form of the word. A cover with with a profile view and only one eye won't work, and a refrence to something like "he kicked the tire with a booted foot" won't work.

So Dawn, things like Hood, you would accept hoodie? and do we need sock or is socks acceptable? and like with cake, singular again, so say, cupcakes? accepted or not?

A hoodie is a sweatshirt with a hood, so it will count.


If the item is listed as sigular I will take the sigular or plural forms. So cakes and socks are good.

But if it is listed as plural you have to get more than one in there.

Would tiptoe work for toe?

Yeah, I'll take that.
