This thread is for spelling only. If you want to discuss and ask questions go to this thread.
How does this work?
Each mod has shared a 'hidden treasure' book title to start off the game. The goal of the challenge is to spell out these titles using the first letter of the books we finish reading. We will be working together as a group to spell out the titles. When a book title is completed, a book will be randomly selected from the books that spelled out that title to take its place. There will be four titles on-the-go at all times, so you can read whatever you like, or plan out your books to help us complete the titles faster, it’s up to you.
How to Participate:
Every time you finish a book, you post it on this thread. The first letter of the title, with the exception of words such as an, a, the, and and so on, will count towards our pile of letters that we use to spell out the book titles.
Example:
The Man in the High Castle
Philip K. Dick
June 1
5*
('M' would be the letter used to complete one of the four book titles)
It is completely optional, but you may add a star rating if you would like to let everyone else know how much you enjoyed your book.
Important Notes: Every book must have its own post to count. Posts with multiple books per post will only have the first book accounted for. Mods reserve the right to decide which letter from the book title counts.
So dust off your TBR shelf, find a comfy chair, and help us to spell out as many titles as we can!
