message 1: by Haley (new)

Haley All right. So the way you play this game is to say: "Find me a book with ______ on the cover.

First person to post the picture of a cover with the asked for object wins, and asks for something new.

For example:

I'd ask: Find me a book with fruit on the cover!

Someone would respond: Twilight (Twilight, #1) by Stephenie Meyer
Find me a book with a bug on the cover.

And so on.

(To post cover images on the message, go right above the comment box you're writing on and it says: "add book/author". Click on that, type in the book title or the author's name, choose it, and then make sure "cover" not "link" is selected at the bottom)
