Overview
I love these A to Z, contains a number, character is named, and so on challenges. But they aren't quite arbitrary enough. So!
This is 1 prompt for a book whose title contains one of the 1936 most commonly used words in the English language, but only the ones whose rank is a square number. Why square numbers? Why the top 1936? I dunno, I felt like it. (Also the best frequency list I found only went up to 2000).
You are welcome to interpret 'contains' as you wish - a suggestion would be to allow partial matches if the word is clearly linked ("yours" for the prompt of "your" or "byway" for the prompt of "by") but not for solely overlapping letters ("lawn" for the prompt of "law" for instance).
