25.4 - KmarieD's Task: Readerboard Names

I have never finished this challenge twice in a row. And finishing has never been that common either. To celebrate this accomplishment, you will be using Readerboard names to complete this task.

This is a 2-book task.
Choose two options and read one book for each.

Option 1:
Read a book where the single author's first and last initials can be found in YOUR Readerboard name and/or mine, KMARIED. For this option, letters can be repeated.

Option 2:
Read a book with at least three words in the title where each word starts with a letter in YOUR Readerboard name and/or mine, KMARIED. For this option, letters can be repeated. You may ignore the subtitle unless you need it to reach the 3 word requirement. If the subtitle is being used, all words in both the title and subtitle must fit the requirement.

Option 3:
Read a book with a stand alone word of at least four letters in the title, subtitles excluded , that can be made from my Readerboard name, KMARIED. Letters can only be used as often as they appear.
Required: State the word

Examples of words: dark, dear, dare, mark, mare, make, read, ream, raid, dream, marked, dire, mire, dime, made, maid, arid, ride, demark, admire, dike, amid, media, aimed

Yes, the initials can come from any combination of your name and my name. They can all be in yours, all be in mine, or one from each.

Josh | 44 comments I am just checking: for option three, do the words need to be standalone? For example, would "darkness" be allowed since it contains "dark," or does "dark" need to stand alone?

Thanks!

It needs to stand alone. I will get the task updated.

I will update to say you can ignore subtitles unless you need to reach the word requirement, then all words will count. But I don't think many people would be able to use that option with subtitles because the letters might get tricky.

No. The title has to have at least 3 words in it, but all words in the title need to start with one of the letters in the readernames.

for example: An Instruction in Shadow with 4 words in the title

The first letters of each word are: A, I, I, S
A can be found in either your or my readername
I is found in my readername and is allowed to be repeated
S is found in your readername
