Welcome to:

Title Mania!

Title Mania is a simple game which should be a lot of fun! NO peeking at titles and authors, this brain teaser is intended to rack the old grey cells: entirely from your own memory!

Simply give the title of a book which begins with the last letter of the title before it: *

Ex: The Good Earth:
Answer:How Green Was My Valley.
Next: A book title which starts with Y

* We'll ignore A, An, and The in titles for this game.
** You may choose to IGNORE any title ending in Y and take the next letter to the Y instead (Pat rule!)
*** You may ignore numbers and take the next letter back..

How far can we go?

Let's find out.

Enjoy!

Hi Gumtree,

You keep me on my toes! It's like I've never read a book. All the titles have flown away whether titles I've read or just seen in book reviews.

This was a book written by committee. Someone had the idea of getting a number of well-known authors of the time to write one chapter each of an erotic novel. I didn't read it, not my sort of thing, but I gather it wasn't any better than you would think.

I remember watching the movie Sand Pebbles. It was disturbing. A great movie but I can't bring myself to watch it a second time, even after all these years.

Devil's Valley

Andre Brink - He was one of the first to write in Africaans and to speak out against apartheid in his writing. Devil's Valley isn't his best but it starts with a D.
