 Here Are The Suggested Rules of the Game: 1. Please play on the most recent correct post. 2 Please verify that no one else has posted while you were preparing your post. 3. The title of the book cited must have one word, at least, which is the same as a word in the previous title. 4. The repeated word in the new title must be other than an article ("a", "an", or "the"). 5. The repeated word must be spelled exactly as the word was spelled in the previous title. E.g., "prune" is not the same word as "prunes", and "loyal" is not the same word as "loyalty." 6. The repeated word must be in the title as shown on the title page of the book--not, e.g., part of the series name unless such is part of the title as shown on the title page. 7. A hyphenated word is one word, not two: e.g., "thunder-clouds"; and if used must be repeated in full, not in part only. 8. If you have read the book it would be informative that you so indicate and tell when you read it, if you can. 9. Try to use Touchstones. Put brackets around the title and double brackets around the author. If Touchstones don't work, try using an html link. Last play: The Mystery of the Glowing Eye by Carolyn Keene My play: Interference: A Mystery Story, Illustrated With Scenes From the Paramount Photoplay by Roland PertweeMessage edited by its author, 10月 30, 2009, 10:48pm. The Town, by Conrad Richter (read 14 Dec 1958) (Pulitzer Fiction prize for 1951) Touchtone goes to a different book. Sorry, I don't know how to correct that. And author comes up red and nobody has ever told me how to correct that, either. Cross Bones by Kathy Reichs All these bones...must be Hallowe'en!

Sorry, the present 138 wasnʻt on the screen when I started writing 139; I responded to the present 137. #141 No problem, RP, we obviously posted at the same time. It's happened to me and when I go back later, I am surprised to find a post above mine that I hadn't seen before.

Monarch Notes Series My Home is Far Away; an Autobiographical Novel
by Dawn Powell To Schmerguls (#165) Whatever reading I have done of Spenglerʻs magnum opus was done in the 1950s, possibly the 1960s, too. It took the form of doing more than just scanning it, but not reading it from cover to cover. I remember arguing with a Fascist-leaning unpublished writer who was something of a Spenglerian. I asked how do we know (if we are somehow paralleling the Roman Empireʻs history) that we arenʻt, say, at the stage of the Punic Wars, and not at the Teutoburger Wald Battle (which at the earliest is where Spenglerians say we were --as of the 1950s.) He scoffed at that admittedly somewhat negative idea and said, "No, weʻre definitely moving into the decadence." Message edited by its author, 11月 6, 2009, 12:42am. (Playing on 201):
