Nancy | 2838 comments I borrowed this game from the Romance Readers Reading Challenges group. The game is a variation of a Treasure Hunt, where a specific detail is chosen, and the challenge is to find a book where that detail occurs.

(To post a book cover, click on the add book/author link on top of the comment box, search the book and when you add, be sure to select cover instead of link.)

Example:

A book with a dog in the cover.

Response:

Shiloh Season - 2000 Kids' Picks by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor

Let's start:

A book with a horse in its cover.
