message 7: by Rachel (new)

Rachel A. (abyssallibrarian) | 3268 comments Very interesting challenge. I came up with 20 (or 27, if you count the Harry Potter books separately -- I thought of them all, but wrote down Harry Potter 1-7. That might be cheating, lol).

Here's my list:
Harry Potter 1-7
Great Gatsby
Little Women
Jane Eyre
Pride & Prejudice
Emma
Persuasion
Northanger Abbey
Mansfield Park
Little Men
Anne of Green Gables
Secret Garden
Pendragon
My Sister's keeper
Mercy
Nineteen minutes
The Pact
Songs of the Humpback Whale
Harvesting the Heart
Handle with Care
House Rules

No idea why I automatically thought of the classics first, and not books that I had recently read. Then my mind seemed to play "word association" and each book I thought of reminded me of another...hence the Jodi Picoult chain.
