Other than Animal Farm (classics) I got nothin'. I am half-convinced that The Tetherballs of Bougainville is an April Fool joke.
Classics: Animal Farm
Also, the Kingsolver novel is The Bean Trees.
I don't know the others.
This game is more fun as a blog tool, in your hands, than it was as an actual game stuffed in my closet. :)
Alison, the answer may strike you as kind of like an April Fool, but I did not make it up.
Karen, I'm glad you like playing it this way--I don't know a group of humans who could play the game face to face and have as much fun with it!
or a group of animals or aliens, either
Frances the badger
Michael Crichton
Animal Farm

Wow, that's the most I've ever gotten in a single week. I own this game but I've only played it once, I was so awful. Might be just the thing for a readathon break though.
I knew a few, but not all, but Frances! definitely my hero.

Authors: I don't recognize the pen name, but I suspect Michael Crichton (even though it took me three tries to spell his name)
Book Bag: Isn't this just called The Tetherballs of Bougainville? Is this a trick question?

Book Club: Bean Trees

I own this game too and I agree, Jeanne actually makes it fun. I only have one friend who is willing to play it with me.

Good work--and Harriet got them all again, including the kind-of-trick last one!
I suck at this game. I wouldn't play this IRL with any of you. Nor with aliens or animals.
:)
Care, pretty much EVERYONE sucks at this game. But if we played it IRL there would be pie.
