As you may have guessed, we are now in the heart of summer. It is a time for picking up a good book, sitting in front of a fan, and delving into another world. So, to aid you in your search for that “perfect” summer book, I offer this quiz. It works like this: I’ve taken the actual title of several books, and turned them into alternative titles that might have been used, but weren’t. How many can you guess correctly? Hint: no words in the real titles are used in the alternate titles.
