The Lost Challenges discussion

The general rules of Scattergories are you are given a list of categories and a time limit. Then the letter dice is rolled and you have to come up with something that matches the letter and the category.


The object of this challenge is the same sort of thing as the board game. We give you a list of 12 categories/words and a letter and you find items that fit those categories in your books. The goal is to find all 12 items. You may use a book to fulfill as many categories as it fits (you don't have to read 12 books this month...don't worry!)

The first 6 categories will stay the same, the second 6 will be announced each month.


Please remember to add a link to the book, the author and give the date you finished reading it.
You also need to post the sentence and page/loc# for items 7-12.

Frozen Food - Fruit Gypsy Moon (10/30/19)
(view spoiler)[location 2893, 47%
"So this is hell. I'm the gossiping wolf toy that's nice to play with, while the vampire is the forbidden fucking fruit that hangs so low it's suspicious. It's absurd," I angrily tell my very silent omega. Leiza gives me a firm nod of agreement, but I feel placated right now. "I have a minor pack living in her house and she still thinks I'm less masculine than Damien fucking Morpheous?" I rant on a little. (hide spoiler)]

I wander into the kitchen in search of coffee and find a pot waiting for me. The fridge contains my favorite creamer, newly purchased by the expiration date. I hadn't realized he noticed such small details. I don't think I've ever seen Jafar in the morning before. (hide spoiler)]
Personality Trait - Fierce Thunder Hunter (10/18/19)
(view spoiler)[location 834, 27%
"Rusty, shush!" Rusty? He didn't look rusty to me, although his colour could suggest where they got the name from. However, he looked fighting fit…and pretty fierce. The dog stopped when Chloe reached back, grabbed my hand and shoved it under the dog's nose. After a sniff, the dog licked me once before rubbing against Chloe's legs. (hide spoiler)]

Thanks JoAnne :)

Hi JoAnne,

I found a great thing that is cold, but it's singular instead of plural. Is frostbite okay, or since I have plenty of time, should I keep looking?

Thanks!!

Hi Joann GMRA - Great minds read alike! I just noticed, as your post is just below mine, that we both read Far From the Madding Crowd. I hope you enjoyed it! I read it as a teen and now 50+years later re-read it and its a different book. With this read I felt much more frustrated with how he cast Bathsheba and some of her decisions, but I did enjoy the basic story very much,
Denise
