So some of us at the Book Barn have been really enjoying Scrabble lately. We figure that there are at least a few of you out there who enjoy the game as well. So we did a little combing, and found a list of every legal two-letter Scrabble word, with their definitions. Now you can stand up to anybody who challenges your right to play the word “Hm” or “Nu” or “Qi.” You’re welcome.

If you like Scrabble, you might also want to check out the book “Word Freak” by Stefan Fatsis. Fatsis is a sportswriter and frequent contributor to NPR’s “All Things Considered.” To write “Word Freak,” he immersed himself in the world of competitive Scrabble. The result is really interesting and really fun to read, even for casual fans. You can pick up a copy at our downtown store, if you’re interested.

Here’s hoping you’re all having a good summer so far!
