Is there any restrictions? I found Hear My Sorrow: The Diary of Angela Denoto, a Shirtwaist Worker, New York City 1909 Are there any restrictions on children's books?
Mod
The standard rule for using children's books in the SRC, which is spelled out in the Rules of the Challenge, must be met. So, no, this book won't work.
that's what I thought. I will find something else
I'm just checking these words are long enough - "inn" and "in" together? They are on the homophone website.I was thinking Jamaica Inn and Written in Red or A Stranger in Olondria.
Mod

Yes, inn/in works.
The Homophone site lists:Bell / belle
would
Bells / belles
work?
Thanks!
Mod

Bells / belles

Thanks!"
Yes, Bells / belles would work.
Checking on these two:Empires of the Sea: The Siege of Malta, the Battle of Lepanto, and the Contest for the Center of the World - SEA
Last Chance to See - SEE
Mod
Empires of the Sea: The Siege of Malta, the Battle of Lepanto, and the Contest for the Center of the World - SEA
Last Chance to See - SEE"
That pairing works.
Are numbers OK? Like The Fangirl's Guide to the Galaxy: A Handbook for Girl Geeks and Jack of Fables, Vol. 2: Jack of Hearts? TO/2
Mod
No, sorry. The homophones must be complete, stand-alone words and be found listed on the homophone site, which has all the numbers spelled out. So TO/TWO can be used but not TO/2.
Please confirm "sea" and "see" as homophonesThe Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley
All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
Mod
The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley
All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr"
They're on that homophones list. They work.

Homophones are words that sound the same but are spelled differently. Read TWO books with matching homophones in their titles/subtitles. Example: Sail and A Gun for Sale (sail/sale). The homophones must be complete, stand-alone words and, for the purposes of this task, they must be found listed on this site: Homophones. Plurals and possessives are allowed as long as both homophones are plurals or possessives.
