Buzzwords Challenge

 Books and Lala sponsors the Buzzword Reading Challenge on Storygraph. The goal is pretty simple--just read one book per month which has the following prompt words in the title. I decided that I just don't have enough reading challenges, so here we go for one more...

I'll post my tentative picks below and will update as I go along.

January--There/Their/They're: There Is a Tide by Agatha Christie (1/14/24)
February--Positive/Happy Words (sweet, cute, joy, etc): A Fete Worse Than Death by Dolores Gordon-Smith [fete = fun frolic/carnival]
March--Character Name in Title: The Moneypenny Diaries by Kate Westbrook (2/29/24)
April--Nature Related Words (earth, dirt, grass, ocean, etc): Cold Bed in the Clay by Ruth Sawtell Wallis (4/30/24)
May--"Every": Crows Are Black Everywhere by Herbert O. Yardley & Carl Grabo (5/17/24)
June--Same word twice (or more): Old Hall, New Hall by Michael Innes (6/12/24)
July--Measurement Words: Death in a Small World by Laura Colburn (7/20/24)
August--"Like": Nothing Like Blood by Leo Bruce (9/4/24)
September: Senses (and related words): Death in a Pheasant's Eye by James Fraser (9/19/24)
October--Relationships (mother, father, sister, friend, etc): Wicked Uncle by Patricia Wentworth (10/22/24)
November--"Only": Only in Books by J. Kevin Graffagnino (11/24/24)
