Has anyone chosen books for No. 36 the seven sins?? I can't see anything initially on my tbr shelves that fits. I've got a book called "Mean Spirit" which fits with greed/avarice The category does say "makes reference to" so it doesn't have to be the actual word. Anything about being proud or to do with seduction (for lust) for example would work. I agree it is harder than I thought it would be when I picked it of a list of choices - sorry!

Thanks Suze

I thought of Grapes of Wrath immediately, that one is long overdue for me.

adelynechan , sarita , rosemary3 , I have taken it upon myself to change category 64. The letters Q and Z appear in the title Near on impossible, and as we're not getting out to scour charity shops - Mr P can lump it. So... 64. The letter, Q, Z or X appear in the title. Obviously, if you want to go with the original - that's fine! geminii - sorry Suzanne, also meant to include you in this!

I was about to give up - then it occurred to me that "Queen Elizabeth" has a Q and a Z... but there are remarkably few books on the market that have her full title! Totally on with the change I have TBR books that fit!

Guys some help please, would you say Vendetta in Death could work for one of the 7 deadly sins? Could it be classed as Wrath?
