15.10. Would I Lie to You?

In honor of Tell a Lie day (April 4), read a book with LIE found intact in the title/subtitle or author's name.

Trish (trishhartuk) | 3688 comments Does it have to be "lie" or can it be liar or lying?

The task requires that the letters "LIE" be found intact in a word in the title/subtitle.

yes, since the 3 letter combination is in "lies." A book with "believe" in the title would also work, since the 3 letters are found intact.

Pia Great! And I just found a book that also fits here:

The Comfort of Lies by Randy Susan Meyers

S.L. Berry Will Lie work? I am asking because it has YA (young adult) as a main page genre.

There is no restriction on the use of YA books in the challenge (unless they also have Childrens or Kids)

Sorry, no. Illustrators don't count as authors.
