The Bookshelf Above

I went out of my way to make these books as anonymous as I could. Some, of course, will still be quite recognizable, since there aren't so many books to choose from with an image on the spine. But I defy you to name them all! Mwah-ha-ha-ha!

I believe number 5 is MTA's Lederhosen book.

Because the art no matter how small it appears here is still very recognizable.

I hope I am right. :)

5. is the Clue of the Linoleum Lederhosen, indeed. ;)

4. is not The Book Thief, but another Thief.
7. is not Abhorsen, but another in the series.

Whoops! What I meant to say:

4. The Thief Lord

Is #6 The Light Princess?

Yeah, that's the Disreputable Dog!

Lirael is correct.
How did you guess the Light Princess?!

Because of the "ess" and the "Mac."

Is it right?

I think I see Blood Meridian by McCarthy (fifth from the right)...

Yes, Light Princess.

No, Blood Meridian.

#9 is Opie and Wells, Wee Willie Winkie (My Very First Mother Goose).

11. Stellaluna?

I think the third from the right (I lost count from the left) is Ella Enchanted. I was thrown off because that's not the edition I own.

Editorial Anonymous said...

Not Ella Enchanted.
Sorry

This was a long time ago, but I didn't see it!

Most seem already gotten but:

2 - Lion the Witch

Next to Lireal - Good Masters Sweet Ladies

Blue one towards the end - So Sleepy Story

Last one - Follow the Line Through The House

TELL ME IF I AM RIGHT! :)
