Hidden Books at National Book Tokens is here

[KatBurglar]

Always and enjoyable (if incredibly frustrating) visual puzzle guessing the titles of 20 books.

Who's playing this year? How are you getting on?

I knew there would be a thread. I have 19, I'm stuck on the bin one.

Two left:

Belle - guessing something Beauty - trying to think outside the box

Travel books - all set in New York is that significant?

Read all the clues but still stumped. Help!

@Mothership4two Where in NY?

@Mothership4two more specific than NY

You're nearly there with the first one.

@AnneShirleysNewDress it's a famous poem

Thank you @Stokey. I did the poem at school but just didn't click 😆

Thank you and @Stokey I have read that book but don't know much about NY layout! DS stayed with friends in that particular area last year as well.

Oh god, that bloody "lion", it drove me to despair - and it's one of my favourite books, too!

I've just got the science revision to go.

Still can't work out the lion that is not a lion + beauty

Got14 all by myself but needed this thread for some help with the others. The Bestsellers and Lion were horrendous. Annoyingly I did think there might do the Best sellers one but still didn't manage it.

Interesting to see things that others have got stuck on. The Natural History one was the first one I got because of the child's costume. Used to be my favourite book though.

I've just got the science revision to go.

Very popular book last year and you need to have them before you can revise

@Mothership4two the "lion" is a word that sounds like lion - actually nothing at all to do with lions.

I’m on 19 and still can’t get the lion one

I got there! How much time have MNetters spent, collectively, on this thing today? I've lost several hours to it.

@HalfasleepChrisintheMorning Famous literary novel from about twenty years ago

This may be a bit random but it not far off the TV series about H but you need to translate belle.

Got it! Thank you

Just finished, kicking myself over the kids reading at the front!

I wish you could click on the images and see your answers rather than just the message saying you've done that one. I think this was easier than last year or maybe I've just been reading more!

Ugh that lion one was awful/bit rubbish. Didn't help that I hadn't watched the TV show that kind people were using to hint - or heard of the book!

Thanks for helpful hints

This book went to court!

Great thread, thanks to everyone for the clues especially inmySpareTime who saved my head and my wall!

The lion one annoyed me as it is a far better clue for beauty and the beast!

I'm stuck on the Greek women and the pet dragon - any more clues?

@AppropriateAdult

Greek women - the place is where Helen comes from

Pet Dragon - put Dragon into the search of an online bookstore.

I have eight and am so stuck!

Morris Dancer and paramedic??? Seems like if you don't know it, you can'tguess it. But I now want to read a love stpry between a Morris dancer and a paramedic!
