Twenty Questions: Name the book I am burning.

The only questions I'll answer are those that can be answered "yes," "no," or "irrelevant."

Unless you ask the $64,000 question, which can't be answered as above. That one I'll answer.

I wonder if this will take off, or if it will sink.

So:

What book am I burning?

23. HERE IS THE ANSWER - I'm sorry, but I have to leave now, and probably

won't be back online until Saturday. I wish I had time to stay and finish this. I really didn't think it would take off.

I burned The Murder Room by P.D. James.

Thanks for playing!

24. Wait--! Why did you burn it?

Did it offend your ladylike sensibilities with rough language or unsettlingly violent scenes?

Or did it just suck out loud? :evilgrin:
