Book Quiz

Okay, here we go. You can be tagged if you want to be. It's really fun to do. Even though I've read hundreds and hundreds of books, I had trouble remembering the titles of 30. But once I found the titles, I remembered what the story was. At least I have that much. :) If you do decide you'd like to do it, please leave a comment; I'd love to see how you answer. Enjoy!
