NYT Strands today (game #148) – the answers
The answers to today’s Strands, game #148, are…
- MEET
- LEARN
- STUDY
- READ
- RENEW
- BORROW
- BROWSE
- SPANGRAM: PUBLICLIBRARY
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
No issues here for anyone who loves books, which I’d wager would be most people choosing to play Strands each day. The theme clue didn’t entirely give the game away, for once, and when I uncovered MEET by accident on my first guess, I wasn’t sure what the concept here was. But I understood a little more once I found LEARN, STUDY and READ, and the remainder fell into place easily.
