Going an easy way out. Too much work to look through books for other books so I found the list on the Storygraph challenge for this.

One sticks out:

NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity

The Little Paris Bookshop mentions a lot of books. There is a list at the end of the novel.

So there's a trick of opening up books in your Kindle and clicking on the "about this book" and occasionally there will be a "books mentioned" section there. Here's some of what I found:

Americanah mentions Light in August and Cane

Love, Rosie mentions Ulysses and Sushi for Beginners

The Supernatural Enhancements mentionsThe Sacred Fount: Henry James (Literature, Classics, History) Annotated

Tune in Tokyo: The Gaijin Diaries mentions Underground: The Tokyo Gas Attack and the Japanese Psyche

Alexandra Benedict's Christmas mystery/thriller books mention a ton of Agatha Christie

The Boy on the Bridge mentions The Ship

The Girl with All the Gifts mentions Never Let Me Go and The Waterbabies: A Fairy Tale for a Landbaby

Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg mentions The Femine Mystique and The Pirates of Penzance

My Fairy Godmother is a Drag Queen mentions Persuasion

Eloquent Rage: A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower mentions Waiting to Exhale, Deenie Disappearing Acts and The Color Purple


One of The Magicians books by Grossman mentions A Game of Thrones and The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. Another mentions Hamlet.

Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America mentions The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness, The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration, The Souls of Black Folk, The Autobiography of Malcolm X, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, The Fire Next Time

A Kiss Before Dying mentions Strangers on a Train

The Passenger mentions The Girl on the Train and Luckiest Girl Alive

Slaymentions The 48 Laws of Power

The Book of Speculation mentions The Lady of the Lake and Treasure Island

Ready Player One mentions Nation

Ban This Book by Alan Gratz is a kid's book about students who create a secret locker library after their school starts banning books. Great source if you like kid's books, or want to buddy read with a kid in your life.

The list:

Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark
Matilda
Harriet the Spy
Wait Till Helen Comes
It's Perfectly Normal: Changing Bodies, Growing Up, Sex, and Sexual Health
From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
The Egypt Game

These series are mentioned, so I would say any book in the series counts.
Junie B. Jones and the Stupid Smelly Bus
The Adventures of Captain Underpants
Welcome to the Dead House

I'll be reading The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row which is mentioned in The Many Lives of Mama Love: A Memoir of Lying, Stealing, Writing, and Healing

If anyone is in the mood to read either 1970s-1980s horror or 1980s-1990s teen books, there are the books Paperbacks from Hell: The Twisted History of '70s and '80s Horror Fiction and Paperback Crush: The Totally Radical History of '80s and '90s Teen Fiction that mention all kinds of books to choose from.

I’m going to read War and Peace which was mentioned in a book I read this month ( well technically last month since it’s just past midnight)

Thank you so much for this list:

I will be reading Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

Another couple (non-Polish) books mentioned: The Magic Mountain and Sense and Sensibility

The Uttermost Farthing by R. Austin Freeman is referred to throughout Owls Well That Ends Well (Meg Langslow #6) by Donna Andrews
This book is free on Gutenberg. It was first published in 1914 and I became so curious about it, I am now read it as well! It is a mystery!

Both Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson and The Black Stallion Returns (Black Stallion #2) by Walter Farley are mentioned in No Nest for the Wicket (Meg Langslow #7) by Donna Andrews

I’m wrapping up The Husbands by Chandler Baker (for the same title prompt) and in it they mention books read in a book club:

“The Underground Railroad�� by Colton Whitehead
“Educated�� by Tara Westover
“Normal People�� by Sally Rooney
“Where the Crawdads Sing�� by Delia Owens
And “a book about children who spontaneously combust�� which is “Nothing to See Here�� by Kevin Wilson

I’ve already read all of them but thought the list might be helpful for anyone wanting a excuse to read one of these popular books!

Reading All I Ask for my book with under a 3 star rating but it mentions Autobiography of Red, This Wound Is a World, Night Sky with Exit Wounds and Chelsea Girls.

Will edit if there are any more.

I just finished reading Yellow Wife by Sadeqa Johnson (for the prompt: a title starting with letter Y) and these books were mentioned:

Oliver Twist
Emma
Jane Eyre

Patriot: A Memoir mentions
-Resurrection
-Madame Bovary
-Oliver Twist
-Vanity Fair

For right now (it may change later), I'm going to read The White Van by Patrick Hoffman. It was mentioned in In the Galway Silence by Ken Bruen.

Not sure if this would count, but I'm thinking of reading Carry On since it was technically mentioned in Fangirl even though the book didn't exist yet.

Cathern wrote: "Not sure if this would count, but I'm thinking of reading Carry On since it was technically mentioned in Fangirl even though the book didn't exist yet."

I would totally count it.

I've read Fangirl and had not even considered Carry On even though I have those books.

I finished Gather The Daughters and she mentions Call of the Wild by Jack London many times.

I am currently reading Want by Gillian Anderson and my Secret Garden by Nancy Friday is mentioned so many times (and I'm only 25% in).

Gone with the wind mentions Les Miserables

Water Memory mentions Lucky Jim several times.

The Van mentions The Man in the Iron Mask and Lord of the Flies

Excellent I'm currently reading:

The Abduction of Betty and Barney Hill: Alien Encounters, Civil Rights, and the New Age in America and the author mentions

John Fuller's book:
The Interrupted Journey: Two Lost Hours Aboard a UFO: The Abduction of Betty and Barney Hill .

'The Interrupted Journey' has been on my shelf for a long while so since I'm getting back into aliens/UAPs (UFOs) now seems like a good time for it.



UPDATE:

I read the introduction to The Abduction of Betty and Barney Hill: Alien Encounters, Civil Rights, and the New Age in America. The author makes it clear that he doesn't believe the couple was abducted by aliens so I look forward to his take on what he thinks happened.

I am curious though to read The Interrupted Journey: Two Lost Hours Aboard a UFO: The Abduction of Betty and Barney Hill so that I could compare these two books.

Currently reading The Disordered Cosmos: A Journey into Dark Matter, Spacetime, and Dreams Deferred and in the introduction the author mentions Cosmos so I might add this one.

Though I was also reading The Abduction of Betty and Barney Hill: Alien Encounters, Civil Rights, and the New Age in America and that author mentioned The Interrupted Journey: Two Lost Hours Aboard a UFO: The Abduction of Betty and Barney Hill which is also on my TBR.

So I don't know which to choose!

The Harry Potter series is mentioned in Lonely Castle in the Mirror.

mentions:

The Bluest Eye
and
Their Eyes Were Watching God

Floating Hotel uses some of Shakespeare's sonnets as a plot feature.

This is easy. In his book The Rise and Reign of the Mammals: A New History, from the Shadow of the Dinosaurs to Us , the author mentions the previous book he wrote called The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs: A New History of a Lost World

Ron wrote: "This is easy. In his book The Rise and Reign of the Mammals: A New History, from the Shadow of the Dinosaurs to Us , the author mentions the previous book he wrote called [book:The ..."

Depending on how you interpret the prompt, one could use books mentioned in the cover blurbs or "Other Books By This Author" section for this prompt.

Yeah true.

Blush by Jamie Brenner is about a book club that reads several books; I added them to my TBR when I read it, so I would remember them -- as I loved this book club! So these books will all count for this prompt:
Scruples
Lace
Chances
Mistral's Daughter

Black in Blues: How a Color Tells the Story of My People mentions The Color Purple, Beloved, and Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo if anyone still wants some Black History Month reads!

Just finished The Messy Lives of Book People and caught mentions in it of:
On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland / Through the Looking-Glass
Frankenstein: The 1818 Text
The Very Hungry Caterpillar
The Accidental Tourist
Such a Fun Age

So if any of those are on your TBR, they fit this prompt!

In the book The Storied Life Of A. J. Fikry I've come across Infinite Jest, and The Monster at the End of This Book.

The Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde is a treasure trove of tips, as the plot is set in other books

The Sentence by Louise Erdrich is set in a bookstore, and includes multiple lists of the narrator's favorite books. One list is just called "Sublime Books," and I went with Postcolonial Love Poem by Indigenous poet Natalie Diaz. It absolutely was sublime:

I read The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware, who mentions this book in one of her later books, One Perfect Couple.

It was an enjoyable, twisty thriller - and both Winnie-the-Pooh and The Bell Jar get a mention in it!

Oh, thank you for posting this. I have it planned myself.

Even though I completed this prompt, I still think about it with the books I currently read.

One book that keeps coming up in various books is The War of the Worlds. Maybe that's my sign to finally get to it again.

I found another book where the author references previous books. On page 13 of Middle of the Night by Riley Sager, he references:

Final Girls and
The Last Time I Lied

The Last time I Lied is the better book, IMO

Super helpful since The Husbands is already on my TBR list!

I'm in my "graphic novel era" and am currently reading Graphic Medicine Manifesto and it mentions Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood, Dykes to Watch Out For and Elmer early in.

Cathryn wrote: "I'll be reading The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row which is mentioned in [book:The Many Lives of Mama Love: A Memoir of Lying, Stealing, Writing, and Heal..." Great choice!

Rachel wrote: "I'm in my "graphic novel era" and am currently reading Graphic Medicine Manifesto and it mentions Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood, Dykes to Watch Out For, The CF Diaries by Andrew Godfrey, Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary, Marbles: Mania, Depression, Michelangelo, and Me, Stitches: A Memoir, and I Am Not These Feet

Edward Eager makes sure to mention E. Nesbit books in nearly all of his own novels! Which is how I found them as a kid, as he intended.

I read A Christmas Carol. It was mentioned in the Afterlife of Holly Chase, which I read end of last year.

My current plan at least is to finally read Gilgamesh, I have a copy of either the epic itself or possibly Myths from Mesopotamia: Creation, the Flood, Gilgamesh, and Others I can't remember which edition.

I'm sure it's mentioned in many books but specifically in There Are Rivers in the Sky which I read earlier this year.

If anyone is in the mood to read a Judy Blume book, a lot of her early books are mentioned in the book The Genius of Judy: How Judy Blume Rewrote Childhood for All of Us (Wifey, Are you there God? its me Margaret, Deenie, Forever, Tales of a Fourth Grade nothing, Tiger eyes, Starring Sally j Freedman as herself, Then again maybe I won't, and Its not the end of the world are some of the ones mentioned)
