15.5 That’s So Random
Using this , Hit "Give Me Some Titles" once. Have a pen and paper handy or copy/paste the generated titles to record your results. Read a book with a word* from one of the six titles generated in the title or subtitle. *Articles (A, An, The, etc) and prepositions (in, on, of, etc) may NOT be used. Plurals and possessives work and removing a plural or possessive works as well. Required: Include the six titles when you post.

The Seventh Heart by Marina Fitch .

My titles were
Seventh Heart
The Weeping Wings
Bridge of Snake
Emperor in the Mist
The Nothing's Guardian
The Death of the Tears

Fandury | 957 comments As far as I understood this task you do not need to find the exact title the generator gives you, as these are random generated word combinations, but only a book with one word found in it.

On of my generated title was Professional Door, so I will read
The Door to Lost Pages

Fandury is correct, you could use a book with any of these words in the title/subtitle: Seventh, Heart, Weeping, Wings, Bridge, Snake, Emperor, Mist, Nothing's, Guardian, Death, Tears


Jayme(theghostreader) (jaymetheghostreader) | 3035 comments oh ok, i misunderstood

Coralie I cannot get the link. Is there anything I can do?


message 10: by Julia (new)

Julia (julia103) | 2645 comments If a word is possessive or plural in the random title, does it need to be an exact match?

One of the generated titles is "The Blade's Teacher". Would I be able to use The Assassin's Blade?

Plurals and possessives work and removing a plural or possessive works as well.

Christine | 903 comments Just to make sure, there is no minimum length of the word we are using to match as long as it is not an article or preposition, correct? (My generated list includes the word "Man". I just want to make sure this three letter word is acceptable!)

LouLouReads | 221 comments Just checking that I've understood the possessive/plural thing properly. If one of my titles was The Flower's Window, can I use Flowers for Algernon (changed from possessive to plural)?

Erin Nicholson (ecaracap) One of my titles was "The Thief's Shores". Would I be able to use a book with the word "Thieves" in it, or is that too different?

that's ok- it is in the task description, Plurals and possessives work and removing a plural or possessive works as well.
