WINNER  WINNER  WINNER!!

The Golden Willow -- not a household word, but the third book in Harry Bernstein's trilogy; it's the story of his 70 years with his beloved Ruby.

Congratulations, JoanP

I don't think I've ever heard of a golden willow, but the letters fit...

Here's one...the only clue is that the title is a tie-in to something or other.  A two-way tie-in, actually.    Oh, and it's fiction.

We'll have to hear from Joan then.  She was close, but not quite there.

Sorry, no "o" this time, bluebird...

Sorry guys...
Not so good at multi-tasking.  After this, I 'll take a BLANKO break, I promise!.  This is a  "hot mess!"

Sorry, I didn't notice the I in your last post, Jane.  Missed two of the R's  and the T too.
I'll go back to see if I've missed anything else... whew, a bad day here!  Can someone put me out of my misery and solve this?

G I  R  _        _  I  T  _        A           _  E  A R _         E  A  R R I  _  G

Letters guessed:E, T, R, I, G, O, A

WINNER!  WINNER  WINNER!

That's it, bluebird!  JoanK almost had it - and then I had trouble adding all the letters...I'm so glad you pulled me out of that!

The two tie-ins to SeniorLearn Books - first, the Pearl Earring and Pearl Buck.  The author of Girl with a Pearl Earring was written by Tracy Chevalier, and Tracy's Remarkable Creatures is running very  well in the current poll for the next October Book Club Online discussion.  Hope you've voted!

 Congratulations! You're IT!
