I'm almost done with the prehistoric thing (about 30 minutes left), was just too tired to finish it yesterday evening. Will start the darkness book ..."


Great progress with the books!

I was thinking of keeping this card, since we are finally filling in our current cards. But am going to discard that Kat card. It just doesn't seem worth spending gold to battle for such little rewards.

UGH, and this one looks impossible to beat! 25 attack! and 65 health... I don't think it's worth the effort...

Discard this card? Or use the healing potion and fight???

35559 Ok Camilla! I'm off to bed, but will get started on it tomorrow! I've finished my #4 book, but no hurry for posting that one as it's for the series/weapon.

35559 I found a book for suffixes - The Opposite of Loneliness, that I can read.

So if anyone has a book title with a word ending in -ness that would work. Dark-ness, Aware-ness, weak-ness, happi-ness , madness, sadness, goodness , kindness for some examples...

We would then complete that card.

35559 Camilla I think that will be great. The suffixes are easier to find, so we could complete that card fairly easily :)

35559 I'm currently listening to Adventures In Human Being by Gavin Francis for Bones on Cover- it will complete that card.

35559 CARD 2 Prefixes and Suffixes

I could give or take this card personally... so let's see what all of you think.

Prefixes-A prefix is a letter or a group of letters that appears at the beginning of a word and changes the word’s original meaning.

Examples: Non- , A-, Ex-, Trans-, Tri-, Sub- , Anti- . circum- , Pre- , Re- , Semi- , Post-, Para-, Semi-, Super-, Sub-


Suffixes-A suffix is a letter or a group of letters that is usually attached to the end of a word to form a new word, as well as alter the way it functions grammatically.

Examples : -acy, -al, -ance, -ity , - ist , -dom , -en, -ate, -ive, -less , -ly, -wards, -wise

Book Ideas

Prefixes:
Para- The Time Paradox or Paradox Love

Magn- Magnificent Devices or Magnificent Bastard

Suffixes
-Less : Deathless Love or A Little Harmless Sex
-ness: Hearts in Darkness ; Beautiful Darkness ; Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness ; Magic or Madness


I found Suffixes were easier than Prefixes

Great! i'm so unsure about how to deal with those long reads. I've got 3-4 of them and just hate to exchange them in.
