As a general question, how do people remember the fifty words they're looking for when reading paperbacks/e-books? Is there a certain method to your madness? Can I search for words in an e-book after I've finished it or is it a matter of identifying the words as you go? Any advice would be greaaaaatly appreciated.

My memory isn't great so I look the words up on my ereader either before or after reading it, then count them as finished after I've completed the book.

I'm the same as Beth. My memory is not good at all so I count them after I finish reading the book. It's fun for me to see all the words.

I've only started doing this challenge this year, but most of the words (about 40), I can find in the first 2 books I read for the month which is crazy and cool, lol.

I look after I finish a book. Kindle books you can search. Or you can sometimes find words using Amazon's Look Inside and Google Books.

It is a lot easier when you read e books. I used to have a list on paper when I read more print books.

I have a little notebook and I write out the 50 words I'm looking for. Then when I find it I can write it down right away and add it here later. But for ebooks, I really appreciate the search function because I can miss words.
