Yes"

Thank you!

Would 'snaked' work for snake?

Post 19 I opted to not allow snakes as in a verb, so snaked is probably along the same lines. Hard to tell out of context.

If it is just snaked being used as a verb then no. If there is more to it that makes it actually reference the animal I might reconsider.

I knew I saw that somewhere but missed it. Thanks.

so it is snake and celebrity

it's Table and celebrity this week lindy :)

Lindy, this thread is used to know which words can fit in the item, like if snaked would work for snake and etcetera. This week words are Table and Celebrity. Next week, when new words are called, we will let you know at our team thread.
Here's our link: ****http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...****

It is hard being blind, and the group having so many url's. Do you keep online a list of the words we have used? or the words left? I have 4 words left for each except bonus.

There's a spreedsheat. But I'm not sure if you'll be able to understand. I'll put up a list at our group so you know which words you can still use okay?
If you want to check the spreadsheet, here is the url: ****** https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/c... ******

No worries Lindy, it is kind of hard concept to understand. I can only imagine it is near impossible being blind. I commend you on it. I am such a visual learner, I don't understand things easily unless I can see how it works. I would be lost not being able to see.

Keep asking your questions until it makes sense, and if there is anything that would help let us know.

Lindy, Dont feel alone!! Everyone is only too happy to help, and if they aren't let us know, we'll go beat hem up for you, cut of their Amazon account, something! LOL.

Like the boss said, just keep asking!

OK. I've got a couple of items I want to make sure are OK with the boss lady.

Celebrity
I'm reading . There are two quotes I found that make me think the Spider is pretty famous.
"The most feared assassin in the South." (pg5)
'"You are the Spider after all, known far and wide for your skill and prowess."'

So, I'm wondering if the Spider counts as a celebrity.

I was also wondering if antechamber would work for foyer. If not, no big, I have others I could use this week.

Most feared assassin in the south sounds like a celebrity to me.

And Antechamber would be a foyer.

Thanks!

Hey all I have an outing planned with my nephews this afternoon so I won't be around all day. I think this weeks words are pretty easy so there shouldn't be to many questions. I'll be around for a few hours more to answer questions, just not all day like normal.



I do want to point out that for the bonus Green. You have to find the actual color green in the text or tittle of the book, no shades of green. If you find green on the cover then it needs to be at least 50% of the cover. The cover can be shades of green.

Thanks for clarifying. I was just about to ask :).

Would saying someone wolfed down there food work for wolf?

NVM, I just noticed you said it won't.

I know I've read the answer to this somewhere, but I can't find it. Can you claim the word if it's on the author bio page?

I know it was discussed, but I am not sure where either, And I don't fully remember the discussion.

I believe we went along the lines of it needed to be individual to the book. So the generic author bio used for any of their books no that would not work. If it is an author note or letter to the reader that is specific to that specific book not everything the author writes then that I would take.

Thanks Dawn!

Dawn, just wanted to be sure before I claimed it - will you take privy for bath room? Same thing as WC/lavatory etc.

Yes I would take all 3 of those for bathroom.

Thanks Dawn!

Dawn I had a couple of animal questions for you.

Bear hug?
Wolf whistle?
wolf at the door?

Sheila wrote: "Dawn I had a couple of animal questions for you.

All will work.

Animals can be real, fake or even figures of speech.

Humans with names/nicknames of animals will not work. Animal words used as verbs will not work ie. snaked, wolfed, dogged, bear (a weight)...

Thanks Dawn

Sorry if I'm repeating another's question:

what about describing a person as 'a lone wolf'

would that count?

Yes.

Would soy noodles count for pasta? If you need the whole sentence please let me know.

Noodles are pasta Heather.

Yup, noodles are noodles to me. Soy, wheat or rice it's all good.

Will this work for pasta:
As I lay channeling spaghetti
OR
He apparently talked to spaghetti as I did my best impression of wet noodle?

"He apparently talked to spaghetti," will work.

Ok thank you Dawn! I just wanted to make sure before I started reading my book.

They are not the same, the soy one is just gross. Lol!

lol, ok, I'll give you taste wise they are not the same. I just meant it's all good for the challenge.

Dawn, I'm hoping spaghetti carbonara will work?

Chaitra wrote: "Dawn, I'm hoping spaghetti carbonara will work?"

Yes it will.

does chicken noodle soup count for pasta?

I would say so, it has noodles, and they count!!

Yup I'll take chicken noodle soup.

Yes it will."

Yay, thanks!

Is this cover blue enough?

I love Amy's covers!!

Me too!

Would "the walls were lined with enough books to make her squirm with pleasure" work for bookcase/bookshelf?

Alyssa wrote: "Is this cover blue enough?

"

Yes, I'd take that as blue

Melanie wrote: "Would "the walls were lined with enough books to make her squirm with pleasure" work for bookcase/bookshelf?"

If there is another near by sentence that states shelves, yes. But just lined with books could be stacks of books on the floor all the way up.
