I do not know who started this, but it sucked me in when I read it on We Be Reading. It will probably pop up on facebook soon enough.

You had some great fits! I actually did a meme like this on Facebook about a month ago but you had to answer similar questions with song titles from a single band/artist.
ReplyDeleteKristen -- thanks for introducing me to this one. It was fun to do and harder than it looks.
ReplyDeleteI also did the song title one on Facebook, and will probably post this one on there, too. I'm much more inclined to do things like this on FB than my blog. Not really sure why that is.
ReplyDeleteI might try this one. It's clever and a challenge. I might not be able to find books to fit all the questions!
ReplyDeleteI really liked your answers! It seems like filling something like this out would be so easy when you see someone else do it - but I had such a hard time!
ReplyDeleteI really love your advice and that you've read Sometimes A Great Notion, it's one of my favorites :)
I love this! I'll have to do it too when I have a chance.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Will do on my blog and post it next week :)
ReplyDeleteHa, excellent fave time of day! I'm loving the funny fits; someone else's I saw had Laundry for "You fear..."
