I’ve only read a few of these:
If Life is a Bowl of Cherries, What Am I Doing in the Pits? by Erma Bombeck
Who Moved My Cheese by Spencer Johnson and Ken Blanchard
Why Can’t Somebody Just Die Around Here? by Gerhard Maroscher
Does This Beach Make Me Look Fat? by Lisa Scottoline and Francesca Serritella
I’ve read others by the great Aloise Buckley Heath, sister of William F. Buckley and aunt to Christopher Buckley. I’ve read a few of Christopher’s books, too, though not the one included in this post. I’ve read another book by David Lodge and several by Agatha Christie. I do need to give Dorothy Sayers a try.
Why not join the fun next week? You can read the rules here.
Ooh, you thought of some good ones. Now I want to read Why Can’t Somebody Just Die Around Here?
Thanks for stopping by a moment ago.

WHY CAN’T SOMEBODY JUST DIE AROUND HERE? made me chuckle until I looked closely at its subtitle. So sad! Now, I’m interested in the book, though. I’ll have to check it out.
Happy TTT!

Erma Bombeck always has great titles for her books! She’s so funny — this one is a great choice for the topic. I’ve never heard of that particular Agatha Christie, but I do love the sound of the title. Great list!

I started doing my version of this and came up with two of the titles you have:Who. Over my cheese and Why didn’t they ask Evans but I couldn’t get to 10 titles just based on books I’ve read or own but am yet to read. So I abandoned it, yiu fared much better than I did.

I just researched it! lol. I started with my reading log and went from there. I can’t remember titles to save my life–that’s why the reading log on Goodreads and in a blank book/diary

Pre-phone glued to hand days I carried a small notebook in my purse with book titles, magazine articles-whatever to look for at the library or book store.

I will look through my book log to see if there are any book titles that ask a question. I can’t remember any. Your list was fun to look at.
