Well, Book Riot is just over a month old, and it’s been quite a month. So much here on the site that it’s a little tough to recap, so instead of another round-up, we put together a crossword consisting solely of authors, books, words, and ideas that have made our first month such a hit. If you get stuck, searching the site will probably help you out, (though some of the clues are from Tumblr, Facebook, and Twitter.) So take a shot and see how you do. Answers will be posted in a couple of days. Good luck and happy Sunday!
