I got 8/10 - missed Troilus and Cressida and Coraline. Loved the quiz! I haven't read anyone else's answers, but I assume the link is that the titles all contain the name of a female protagonist.

1 and a half (didn't read the question properly) plus 2 Wrong Titles but the Right Author. Oh Well! 😄 A slight improvement on your last Quiz. Perhaps the Brain Exertion is improving my minimal muscle memory 💪

4...until the next! The quiz idea is very fun (and great for learning about/being reminded of books to read).

Missed two. I did not know about the trial and I never read “Mrs Dalloway”. I liked “Orlando” though. And after a long assignment on something else, I planned a protest letter from Mr. Roochester’s bed at all the shenanigans.

I got 6, I think others have already got the link but they're all named for their female protagonists. The quiz is a lovely idea :)

Well, I only got 5/10 - but all off the top of my head, no Googling. (Rebecca, Lady C, Jane Eyre, Alice, Anna K.)

The obvious connection is that they're all eponymous.

Well done, Jon! The connection is a bit more specific than that - what type of name appears in all the titles?

A female name, and just one.

I did much better this time - but only 3/10. I must up my literature game!

I didn't get Charlotte's web or Coraline. Is the link that they're about female protagonists?

That's a hair's breadth away from the answer, Anne got there first in a dm, I'll dm you now...
