Bonus
For our over-achievers who just need some extra words because the above weren't enough...
Unlike with the 10 words above - you must find the EXACT word to claim these bonus words, and I try to make them hard.
hefty
mud
snake
tunnel
wandering
and a bonus bonus
grandiose
To prove that you have found the word, please quote the page, percentage or LOC (Kindle) and include the sentence in which it appears.
Audiobooks are allowed so long as you can quote the page/%/LOC and the sentence. (Eg Using whispersync or finding that sentence in some other way.)
You must find the actual word or the word's root word must be at the core with the meaning essentially remaining the same ~ just turned into a noun, adjective, adverb etc. No prefixes or hyphenated extensions. An extension is allowed where it is often the accepted spelling eg goodbye or good-bye.
Where a word has more than one meaning, either meaning may be used. Eg coast (beachfront) or coast (moving without effort) etc
Please post all entries, updates, final posts and questions in this thread.
RULING for the BONUS words
If you are one of those super-cray-cray/OCD/overly ambitious/organised or bored readers who wish to find words from PRIOR months that are missing in addition to the current month's words, you may use an additional three (3) words per book. These can only be allocated to prior month words.
So you may allocate three words per book to the current month's words, AND three words per book if those words are from PRIOR months' and have been carried forward.
