Holiday fun - a literary quiz

It’s been a minute since I last posted on this blog, but with the holidays approaching, it seemed like a good opportunity to post something. If your family or friend group is anything like ours, you’ll often sit around after a big meal and enjoy some sedentary entertainment. A decade or so ago I came across a clever book quiz with ten questions which our family enjoyed, and which I’ve added to from time to time. It’s now up to 25 clues, and will hopefully provide some enjoyable diversion for folk who enjoy reading and quizzes. Each of the 25 clues leads to a well-known book whose title has been changed by one letter.


Here’s an example:
Clue: “Tolkien was in a fender bender and sent his car to this, the best panel beater in Middle Earth”:
Answer: “The Lord of the Dings”

Here’s the quiz sheet to print off and give to participants: QUIZ SHEET

And here’s the answer sheet: ANSWER SHEET

Enjoy!
