Classics: Three Sisters
Authors: Rita Mae Brown
Book Bag: Bridgit Jones' Diary? (guessing on this one)
"Dinky Hocker" is making me nuts at the moment - I remember reading it as a kid, but cannot recall the author.
Non-fiction: Underground.
There was a Chekhov film festival here a week or so ago and I cannot believe I missed every single film. Next year I will not miss anything.
The last has to be Bridget Jones' Diary, but I don't know any of the others.
I'm not looking at other comments so I can play long, so forgive the repeats.
Children's: M.E. Kerr. I've never read her books, but I know of her through her association with Louise Fitzhugh
Classics: Three Sisters
Non-Fiction: Underground -- love this one. Love all Macaulay, actually.
Book Club: ??? Isn't she the one who used to be married to Rushdie?
Authors: Rita Mae Brown
Book Bag: Bridget Jones, I think.
Harriet, yes she did use to be married to Rushdie.
Children's: M.E. Kerr
Classics: Three Sisters
Non-Fiction: Underground
Book Club: Evidence of Things Unseen
Authors: Rita Mae Brown
Book Bag: Bridget Jones' Diary
As a group (especially with Harriet's help), we got all but one, the Wiggins novel.
The only one I knew was authors, but other people already answered it.
Kathy, We're all just showing off, anyway. I should probably offer prizes for the first answer in each category some Friday in the future. That might add some interest to the game.
