Topic: What Book Am I?

Posted by: kaddarsgirl

Subject: What Book Am I?
Date: Sep 02 12

This works like the movie and people threads. You ask yes/no questions, and the person who correctly guesses the book gets to pick the next one.

Books can be either fiction or non-fiction, must be classified as a novel or novella. This means no plays, poems, or short stories.

I will begin with:

What book am I?

The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

not Lies or Grisham.

I believe most readers will know the author, he has written over a dozen books...

I was thinking Gore Vidal but he has written more than ten novels.

You say historical/biographical - would the subject be a political figure? Military figure?

"Bury my heart at wounded knee"?

jabb's got it...Dee Browns's sad saga of the mistreatment of the American Indians.

I remember reading it as an undergraduate---extremely disturbing, and one of those books that makes you ashamed of your own country and some of its very ugly history.


Ok, let's shift gears. I am a work of fiction.

Reply #237. Sep 14 12, 9:06 PM
