Welcome to the challenge, Renee and Makayla!
I keep thinking we need to have a level 2 of this with new words that you go to once you finish the first one. People could just stick with the level they have already. Probably mostly stems from all my books that I can't make fit into a category :) Need a verb book category!
But it's going to take me awhile to finish this one anyway :)

Can a witch be a profession? It was a natural gift but she used it for Wicked, Inc.
