Anna I have been playing this game in another group and I find it so fun, so why not play it here!

So the rules are simple; we start with a book title and you have to think of another book title which has one of the same words within it. For example - The Timekeepers wife - you would say - The Time Bandits (they both have time within the name).

The & A- doesn't count.

You cannot use a book title which has already been used.

Books used so far

A bit random, but sounds fascinating!

Life of Pi

So you can't use anything with only one word?

message 8: by Anna (new)

Anna You can use books with one word and you can use that word for as long as it takes.

You cannot use the same book title twice, so now you cannot use Life of Pi.

The Kill Order

You cannot use 'The' to carry on the game. You must find a book title with the words 'kill' or 'order'

Does that make sense?

Nah, it's a game so I don't think you'd get disqualified. I don't know what happens though, I guess you can just change the word? :p
