[Trish, Annular Mod]

First time through: completed: 12/12

In the end, I gave up on my plan to try to do the whole challenge using words in the text.

Word in the text: “We hurried through the dark shrubbery, amid the dull moaning of the autumn wind and the rustle of the falling leaves.”

Fall leaves on the cover, and word in the text: “It had been the kind of fall day the state of Maine was known for.”

3. Foliage - Drowned Country, Emily Tesh - 18/09/21
Word in the text: "They were green with the foliage of an unending summer that had endured, suspended between one instant and the next, for millennia."
