I added the words I got from Harry Potter! Done with that one already! Picking up this one now!

Belle wrote: "I added the words I got from Harry Potter! Done with that one already! Picking up this one now! "

Wow! you've read all that today? I've only managed to read one chapter, and got all 10 words from it lol

I'm commited, plus The bookshop books are actually a quick read! But I think I'll stop at More weird things for today cuz Ive got a headachae

I changed one of mine. I figure Kite would be harder to find than Magic and since I just did I better use it

yeah, I was thinking that we could do that as well, change words :)

Do you think Apple would be a harder one? I just got it and wondered if s should make a switch. Too bad we can only use 10 words a book, I'm thinking I could have half the list with this one lol

I did switch Rock for Candlelabra because there's no way I was passing that up.

Apple is an easy one, I got it twice already, I got Anniversary, Beach, Beer, Ballet, Costume, Garden, Hunt, Jeans, Napkin, New York, Rose, Snow, Celebration,

so you can skip those ones, I already finished More weird Things and already Started My True Love Gave to Me

:)

Dang girl you're on a roll. I started a Nymphania and have found Birth and Game so far.
BTW I've already marked off snow

I updated!

So you didn't have New York? I found that
You have Teenager and Rabbit twice

I have New York! Sorry! I guess I forgot it when I edited.

I fixed the Teenager one! it says New York now!

I got it changed :-)

I updated and also switched out wind/breeze for hot chocolate

wohoo! we're on it! btw why do we have 49 and no 50?

You have RABBIT listed twice (under both book shop books)

I fixed it! I have Wind now! Gosh I'm not going into copy and pasting again lmao xD

Belle wrote: "I fixed it! I have Wind now! Gosh I'm not going into copy and pasting again lmao xD"

LOL so that's what happened. I wondered why it was the same sentence. I though surely they found enough new material for another book and didn't need repeats.

I just realized after one day we're halfway done! We might be able to finish this by the weekend

Of course we will! aren't we like, the bestest? or what? xD

I haven't finished My True Love Gave to me, but however, I found plenty of words that we could use, if anything more important shows up, I'll change it! :)

I switched Stone for Parachute

Joyce! I think I'll have to delete Weird things customers say and More weird things word list since a rule says the books must be at least 150 pages and they're 130 and so, I'll try to ask Hanna if I can put the books together and that it counts just as one so we don't have to lose all 20 words but just 10. u.u

Ok Joyce! I talked to Hanna and She said it was ok! The Words I dropped were:

-Table
-Apple
-Beach
-Napkin
-Spring
-Wind
-Spider
-Scarf
-Rabbit
-Music

Updated

Oh Joyce, if you need any of my words, let me know!

Belle wrote: "Oh Joyce, if you need any of my words, let me know!"

Ok, I updated my words

I just thought of something! I'll be reading Sinner next maybe it'll metion Sam at some point

Yeaaah I'm trying to see if I can found a book with word Hayride in it, is the one that worries me most!

I know! I haven't been able to think of a single book that would have it

So I cheated and used the little search thing on the ebooks I plan on reading. Found haystack 4 times but no hay ride.

I found hayride! I remembered there was a book I read in January for a challenge where they went on one. It took some searching for the book and then another copy but I got it and I will reread it.

YAY!!!!! OMG OMG!

I updated! I made some rearrangements so here are the words that you should mark:

*Football
*Fork
*Flower
*Rock
*Table
*Tomato
*Uncle
*Basket
*Celebrations
*Frog

If there's any trouble tell me!

is there any I need to unmark?

Nope, just mark :)

Ok I swear I'm starting Sinner tomorrow, I actually need to read it for another challenge too lol.
I have a book about mermaids so I read it after and knock off that word at least.

ok! I just finished reading Since You've Been Gone, Here are the words you can check:

*Centerpiece
*Sam
*Decorations
*Liberty
*Orchard
*Perfume
*Rabbit
