I'll have to work on it later. I did notice #2 jumped right out at me! By the way, apparently, according to whatever my computer is using, there's a type on the URL you gave for the link.
ReplyDeleteOkay, done! I may have gotten them all, but I'm not sure about #4 and #13. I did have to look up what a muscadine was to do #5! That was fun. I wouldn't do so well if the books were newer.
DeleteI only copied the link that was on the meme, so who knows if it's still good? Likely not.
DeleteThe only one I couldn't get was 15. I have no idea what that one means.
ReplyDeleteThis is one cool quiz! Thanks for sharing. Be well, my dear.
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it.
DeleteA P.S. to my comment; I think you have an extra "w" in the website link.
ReplyDeleteI think it's fixed now. Thanks.
DeleteThis is great. I think I got most of them but I need to forward this to my sister. She'll love it.
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of fun, isn't it?
DeleteGot all except #7
ReplyDeleteGone with the Wind?
DeleteI missed that one in my first go-round. After my second review.....ohhhhhhhhhhh.
DeleteOh brother. Some are easy like Brave New World, While I lay Dying, Sun also Rises, Red Badge of Courage, etc. The others, will have to work on a bit.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny which ones pop out to you and which ones don't.
DeleteAhh this is so fun! I think I'm going to take this for my blog too if that's okay?! I got a lot of them but some of them stumped me.

ReplyDeleteUpon first glance, the first and last book titles jumped out immediately!
ReplyDeleteYeah, a couple of them are obvious. (Although what's obvious for one person isn't for another.)
