Read4life Thanks, @AsYouWish 💙❄️💙. @Lauredhel Same 🤣🤣🤣 3d
AsYouWish @TEArificbooks Maybe….😉 3d
AsYouWish @Lauredhel 🤭 I mean I couldn‘t make it too easy! 3d
Sarahreadstoomuch Ok if I jump in and start playing? This seems like a fun challenge ☺️ is it one word per book? Or could you use the same book for a couple words (especially if going back to past months)? 1d
AsYouWish @SarahReads Of course!!!! Glad you found us!! You can use one book for all the words, you can use a different book for all the words, you can use an image on the cover of the book, etc. It is very flexible and you can use the words however you want. I also accepted variations of the words (love - lover, lovely, etc.) If you have any questions please feel free to ask! Everyone is super supportive and we all have the same goal - read books! 💙💙💙 1d

If you guessed that the #WickedWords Book/Movie this month was Son In Law, you were correct!

I know what you are thinking - ummm… Elizabeth that is only a movie not also a book! Well you are technically correct, but there are books based on the themes in the movie, so I am counting it, lol! Also I couldn‘t pass up the chance to use this movie because it is definitely a holiday tradition for me to watch it!

CoffeeNBooks I haven't watched this movie in sooooo long! I might need to watch it again. 😁 3d
AsYouWish @CoffeeNBooks I am amazed at how much it still makes me laugh and it is one of the movies I pretty much have memorized!! 3d

I don‘t have a specific word to share today, but I did see this post from Merriam-Webster this week that I think is worth a share.

#WeirdWordWednesday @CBee

I ran across this new to me word last week. I'm trying to jot words down as I stumble upon them. Not sure I would call this one weird but I found it interesting and thought you might too.

A toast to weird, wonderful and interesting words!!! 🍾🍾🍾
Happy Wednesday!

CBee Weird is used pretty loosely 😊 Great word!! 2w
TheSpineView @CBee 👍🤩🌞 2w
BookmarkTavern That one is fun to say! 2w

And here's my November roundup for #WickedWords @AsYouWish

Every one is a graphic story this month! Gay time travel romance, Ohio cult horror, a graphic memoir by a Wuhanese-American, true crime nonfiction, and a charming spooky graphic novel with a Ghibli vibe.

AsYouWish Yay!!!!!💙💙💙💙 1w

I just got an Amazon delivery that said "liquids" on the package, which made me wonder whether Amazon can read minds (I wanted to order some alcohol for Christmas presents, but haven't yet).

Dear @CaroPi Thank you for the #HHS #HauntedHollowSwap package! The book sounds intriguing and I'm honestly amazed that it has rounded corners. The chocolate is perfect, especially since I've just made tea and was looking for biscuits. ?

julesG @wanderinglynn Thank you for organising the swap. 😘😘 1mo
wanderinglynn Awesome! 🧡🎃🖤👻 1mo
CaroPi Sorry that I didn't send the proper package but glad that it arrived for Halloween. You didn't get a second book? I sent two of them 1mo

CaroPi Also since you read so much I wanted to play safe 😉that is why I decided the encyclopaedia 1mo
julesG @CaroPi No worries, it had that paper thingy inside. Just for a second I was uncertain whether I had ordered the alcohol already and plain forgot about it. The second one might appear in the next days. Or it came with a different delivery provider and is in my postbox - Amazon is weird like that. Will venture downstairs and investigate. The encyclopedia is a wonderful idea. I didn't even know this particular book existed, which is the beauty of 1mo
julesG Swaps. You get books you didn't have on your radar, but would have got for yourself. 1mo
CaroPi @julesG hello! according to Amazon you got the second book in Saturday. Can you let me know if is there? Worry about it 1mo

If you guessed that the #WickedWords Book/Movie this month was Remember the Titans or We Are Marshall you were correct!

I read Remember This Titan a while back and was struck by the real life coach of this team and everything he went through during that year and since! He is quite the guy and I highly recommend his book. I have not read November Ever After yet, but it is high on my TBR!
