    The fact that you correctly got these highly-regarded Politzer Prize literary novels that I've never heard of, and yet got completely stumped by Where the Wild Things Are 🤣

    Funny, Klara and the sun was the very first clue I solved basically straight away but was totally stuck on others that you sailed through :D Also, what's a bit weird: I also guessed Trainspotting and when I did the test, it was correct. You typed it in wrong (transpotting) so I thought that's why it wasn't accepted but then for you The Railway Children was correct. Seems like they might accept several different solutions as long as they fit the image. Anyway, that was fun :D Well done, Jack, you nailed it! 👏👏

    I was at the edge of my seat waiting for you to guess Klara and the sun. It was the first one I found, but I think I was tipped off by the colours of her T-shirt, as they matched the book cover I had seen in book shops.
    I had the same reaction as you when I (finally) guessed Demon Copperhead.
    I was completely stumped by The waste land, and didn’t guess the bunny/monkey book correctly cause I thought it was a bear suit the kid was wearing - and confusingly enough there IS (apparently) a book called Hare vs Bear 🙈

    I'm not as up on recent novels. But I got all the ones from older books, including the one that stumped you, "Where the Wild Things Are." Little surprised you'd never heard of "The English Patient", it's not only a famous novel, but it was made into a movie that won the Best Picture Oscar.

    The trash bin and the lion had me completely stumped. Tbf, I hadn't heard of either of the titles, so it was really hard to guess. Some of them you can guess just from context, but especially the lion was almost impossible. I started just googling random words that sound like lion and beauty 😂 I'm surprised you didn't get Where the Wild Things are! Considering it's a very well-known book, and it's basically the main character in the clue. Then again, I can understand your brain not being in a 'kids' book' frame of mind.
