We'll start a new round of the book title game. Simple name the title of a book that begins with the last letter of the preceeding book.
For example:

NIGHTJOHN
Agreed! Great game!
Okay, know how most books have "the" at the begining of the titles? Does that count as the first word, or like in alphabetizing, can we skip it? If so, my name is
Eyes of the Dragon... if not you can ignore my title <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
No Defense <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Animal Farm <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I was in that play in high school. I was a pony I believe, with ribbons in my hair.
To Kill a Mockingbird
(we've got a ton of them out here... and they all park their butts in front of my bedroom window and make all kinds of wonderful noises that you just HATE to hear when you're trying to sleep... read this book hoping it would calm my mockingbird/homicidal tendencies <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> )
Devil's Bride
One of my favorites by Stephanie Laurens. Not very "literary" but fun to read. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Evil Under the Sun
Jeez we're getting lots of "E" titles <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Nitpicker's Guide for Classic Trekker's
(Yes, silly book, but try reading it sometime while you watch the show!)

Typhoon
hehe! This is great, all my books are alphabetized, so if I can't think of a title I can just go look at my shelves (yes I do know how odd my house looks <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> )
Night of the Jackal
our books are by area - sci fi in one section, feudal Japanese in another, Irish alone, etc <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
New Commentary on the Code of Cannon Law
(just so we have a "W" book)
So do I post to the first one done? Or the second?

W= Winter King

It's a fun children's book that discusses the many uses of string, rope, line, and knots, from rigging sails and clotheslines to tying packages and sewing buttons.

I too love Hank. When my oldest son was in 5th grade this was the one series that got him reading. He wrote the author a letter and received a nice note back.
