    Randomly pick three book titles that all start with the same letter and post them. You have to have read at least one of the titles you post. The person who posts next has to pick a different letter to start with, and they get to guess which of your titles you have read. If they guess one right, post with three new titles and a "So-and-so gets a point." You get a point for every title you guess right. We'll keep this up for three pages of posts, then count up the points. Whoever has the highest score wins!

    Okay... I think you've read all of those! :D

    So do I pick a new letter? If that's right, then I pick R.

    I think that you would also post the book titles.

    You're correct!

    JORDAN gets 3 points.

    (You were supposed to go ahead and put three more books. :)) No problem.

    Hm. I think you've read at least Rasmus, if not the others.

    Sky Island

    Stuart Little

    (the) Sea Fairies

    Does that count? What are we supposed to do about "the"?

    You are partially correct. I have read at least one more of those books. Rebekah, is a point gained or not?

    The problem with this game is that it is very hard to think of two book titles starting with the same letter that I have not read. I don't really keep a running list of books I've never read.

    You don't have to post two that you haven't read. You can post only one that you haven't read, or none at all. . .

    Is this game too confusing?

    I choose 'C'

    Chosen by Ted Dekker

    Circles of Seven by Bryan Davis

    Crispin by Avi

    So I get three points and the next person has to guess which one I haven't read and also post a new letter and three more books. Right Rebekah?

    I think you only get a point (or several) if you guess right.

    I'm guessing you haven't read Circles of Seven. Now what?

    Wrong. The one I haven't read is Crispin by Avi.

    I guess you then decide on a new letter, post three books, and somebody else guesses which one you haven't read. Then that person posts a new letter and three books and so on.
