Megan BG (meganbgreads) | 1562 comments Ok, question...

Would "Street" count for "Tree" since it has "Tree" in its entirety in it?


message 153: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments Megan, that's a good question. According to the rules in the first post, it counts! It's up to you whether you want to use it or not.

Thanks! I was searching my books by word and I actually don't have any that contain "Tree", "Grows" or "Brooklyn" except "Street" (and the original title). I'm not certain I'll use it, but I've marked it as a possibility.


message 155: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments That's a great way to do it. You might find something better once you see what others are reading.

I've marked down The Plum Tree for mine, which made it onto my to-read list without me actually knowing much about it. It sounds interesting from the reviews, though, so I'll keep it at least for now.

Cassie Iturrino | 14 comments For #23......can I use Earl for he word PEARL in the book title I choose?


message 192: by Cassandra (last edited Dec 28, 2015 11:43AM) (new)

Cassandra | 5832 comments Cassie - according to the rules of this challenge, the entire word needs to be in the title of the book. So Pearly would work for Pearl, because Pearl is found completely within Pearly (it's hard to think of words that contain pearl), but Earl is missing the P. Does that make sense? There are lots of books that have Girl in the title, so that might be an easier word for that task. Let us know if you need recommendations!

Welcome to the challenge, Gwen!
