15.4 - Inside Out
Kathy G. wrote: "Does this one work for love/love'sLove's Unfolding Dream"
Yes, that works for love/love's.
Kathy G. wrote: "Can I use the same word combo for book two?Love's Enduring Promise"
Either of the books you've asked about will work for the ONE book option. They both have Love's in the title and Love in the series name, giving you the combination of love/love's. Is that what you're asking?
Oh--- I was confused--So I only need ONE book.
Thanks!

If you're doing option B then, yes, it's a one book option.
Leslie wrote: "Would Wicked Lovely work? The series name is Wicked Lovely?"No, sorry, one word needs to be found within another word (even if one of the words is just the plural or possessive of the first word). They cannot be the same word
Delmy =^.^= wrote: "would this one work -->The Witching Hour(witching/witches)?"
No, sorry, one word must be found intact within the other word. You'd need a book with the word witch in it to match with witches or witching.
Ann A wrote: "I found one on my TBR for the one-book option:Farm City: The Education of an Urban Farmer"
That works!
Deborah wrote: "So for option BCat Tricks A Magical Cats Mystery series"
There is no mention of the series name - "A Magical Cats Mystery" - on the Goodreads record. Without it, this book will not work for option B.
Threads - Threadville
I decided that this request would not work as "threads" is not found in "threadville".
How about this one instead: Reap What You Sew?
Sew - Sewing
Deborah wrote: "Not even a picture when you click on that link. Sorry:) Try this one
Cat Trick
"That works!
Elizabeth wrote: "How about The Leopard Prince (Princes trilogy #2)?"Prince/princes works.
Bea wrote: "How about this one instead: Reap What You Sew? Sew - Sewing"Sew/sewing works. And, you're right, the first one wouldn't have worked.
For the one book option, would Murphy's Law work? Series name (per goodreads) is Molly Murphy Mysteries. Thanks!
Kate S wrote: "Does the combo the/other work?"Yes, that works.
Michelle wrote: "For the one book option, would Murphy's Law work? Series name (per goodreads) is Molly Murphy Mysteries."Yes, that works.
Emily wrote: "How about The Things They Carried with the/they? Thanks."Yep, that works.
Does this work? Reason to Breathe The Breathing Series. Breathe/Breathing as the combo for option B.
Angela wrote: "Does this work? Reason to Breathe The Breathing Series. Breathe/Breathing as the combo for option B."Sorry, no, one word must be found intact within the other word. Since the "e" in breathe has been dropped in breathing, this combo will not work.
Thank you for your quick responses Kristi. I will go back to searching for this one.
How about here and there: Can't Get There from Here or There Are No Children Here: The Story of Two Boys Growing Up in the Other America
Amy wrote: "How about here and there: Can't Get There from Here or There Are No Children Here: The Story of Two Boys Growing Up in the Other America"Yes, the combination there/here works.
Coralie wrote: "What about 'the' and 'other' as in The Lottery and Other Stories?"Yes, the/other works.
Hi Kristi.I wonder if Catch as Cat Can works for Option B? (cat/catch)
If not I will re-read Men Without Women (men/women)
Anne (Booklady) wrote: "Hi Kristi.I wonder if Catch as Cat Can works for Option B? (cat/catch)

Yes, Catch as Cat Can works for option B. Men Without Women does, too. Your pick!
Sandra wrote: "Would Knit Two work for the 1 book task (knit/knitting)?"Yes, that works for option B.
Bekka wrote: "Hi there! would these two work for "For":Help for the Haunted
and
The Last Days of California"
Yes, "for" can be found intact within "California".

Thank you!
This is a TOUGH challenge! I think I found two books that will work for option A. Fangirl and The Coldest Girl in Coldtown. Girl is found completely in the word, fangirl.
Would this book work for one book option - The Chocolate Thief and the series is "Amour et Chocolat"?

Yes, chocolat is found intact in chocolate so it works.
