Another great teaser Tinman. Keep it up.
Had fun working this one out while in review. Good Job.
that was cool. Got four and a half I am reading Angels and Demons right now
I've read, and liked most of these books
Also, sorry for the bad correction, I completely forgot to change the missing letter portion .

Good teaser tinman. Enjoyed this one.
Thanks everybody. I'm glad you liked it, I tried to put good books in. Don't worry though, I'm in the process of making Part II
very nice, some were easy, some i havent heard of (gonna add to my list of books to read, though). ... quick question, is that how sematary is spelt? is it not like a regular "cemetery: (i dont think thats the right spelling, either, i just thought it started with a C) if not, then sorry for the annoyance. great teaser.
but i just googled it, and "earnest hemingway" is actually ernest hemingway (no A in first name). im pretty sure...
Cemetary is spelt with a C, but in his book it was kids who made the "s"emetary and they didn't know how to spell.
Also, ernest hemingway spelling is being corrected.

I guessed at Masque of Mercy and came up with Mosque of Mecca. Then I guessed at "Bleachers" and got it! I got all the rest right, too!Thanks.

With a nigh infinite number of books to choose form, can you take two seconds and theme the quiz? It's such an incongruous mash of popcorn novels, famous works, etc. Having never heard of it, I got Mosque of Mecca as well. Guess I need to read more Robert Frost.
I count one too many "a"s in the letter list.
I did prett good without really keeping track of the letter list. Some were easy, but you got me on a couple of them. Liked this one a lot.
jandjfrench - I thought that too, and then remembered that I had been too correct in my spelling of "Sematary". LOL
