It's always good to have an exit strategy; but I would prefer Four Quartets...

[@Maeve_Ever_Books]

Thank you for this tag! I’m excited to see how many books I have that fit these prompts.

[@GenreBooks23]

I look forward to seeing it..

[@Tristan-L-Space-Books]

I'm finally getting around to doing this tag. It's a fun idea! The Magic Goes Away sounds interesting 🤔

[@GenreBooks23]

I look forward to seeing your responses!

[@mediumjohnsilver]

Books I bought after being intrigued by the title:
_Things To Make And Do In The Fourth Dimension_
_All I Ever Needed To Know I Learned From My Golf-Playing Cats_
_The Encyclopedia Of Ignorance_

[@GenreBooks23]

Ha, they sound excellent!

[@ReadingIDEAS.-uz9xk]

Hi Gavin, thanks for the tag. Will have to put my mind to this! A diverse choice you came up with. Happy reading.

[@GenreBooks23]

I look forward to seeing the results (and what you consider shocking)!

[@RaynorReadsStuff]

Nice responses to the prompt. Really interesting g 😊

[@GenreBooks23]

Thanks Debs!

[@AaronReadABook]

Look to Windward is one of my favourite Banks, I had even forgotten or didnt know they were from the Wasteland. Stars In My Pocket Like Grains of Sand is one that always sounded poetic to me.

[@GenreBooks23]

Ooh, not read that one, but have read some Delany this week for 1960s week of Rocket Summer :)

[@BookChatWithPat8668]

Wonderful responses to the prompts, Gavin! I really enjoyed hearing about your choices. Thanks for doing the tag.

[@GenreBooks23]

Thanks for tagging me, fun as ever. Just recorded the one for next week!

[@BookChatWithPat8668]

@@GenreBooks23 awesome! I’ll look forward to it!😊

thanks for letting me know about the real name of this tag! I personally thought that the “shocking title” was the hardest one to come up with. Depending on the kind of books one reads, it can be really hard for a title to shock someone… especially if someone has a steady diet of true crime books. Which suddenly makes me realize that I could have put “Hell’s Princess” (about a murderess whose name I can’t remember) down as a shocking title; I couldn’t bring myself to finish the book… possibly I tried reading it too soon after “Devil in the White City”… which would have also fit this prompt. I should have watched your video before making mine. Your mentioning true crime reminded me that I have actually picked up some books with. some legitimately shocking titles.
Since you don’t tend to re-read, are you more inclined to read library books instead of amassing a collection of them?

[@GenreBooks23]

Afraid not, I do have a collection! There will be ones I will, at some point, want to return to. For most of the rest, onto eBay they go!

[@tahlia__nerds_out]

@@GenreBooks23 well, if you are even possibly one of the reasons I find good book deals on eBay, I thank you. 🙃
