OK, this game is similar to Ron's Geography game. It's basiclly the same thing, except we are going to use titles of literary works. I'm going to stretch and say you can use authors and the titles of famous poems. NO SONGS, THOUGH! And PLEASE be honest and not go look up something. If you can't think of anything, just admit it! Let the games begin! My favorite play: Romeo and Juliet(For those who don't know, the next response should start with a T) Have fun! "Where there is great love there are always miracles" -Cather "Love heals everything, and love is all there is"- Zukav |
