Any and all of those would work.

Yep. Pretty common saying. It works.

Yes it would.


message 112: by Nicola (new)

Nicola | 173 comments Would either Marry Me (Marry Me, Maddie) or Hot Cocoa work for the single book option?

Sorry, Nicola, those won't work. You're looking for something that's a common saying when the word "and" is in between. So, lost & found, boy & girl, Mr. & Mrs., etc. Marry & me or Hot & cocoa wouldn't work.

Nicola | 173 comments Ok, I'll keep looking!

How about homes and gardens, as in Deader Homes and Gardens?


message 116: by Eugenie (new)

Eugenie | 2 comments Can I use hunting and gathering?

Homes and gardens works.

Marie-Anne | 950 comments Can I use Do or Die in "Aye Do or Die"?


message 120: by Eugenie (new)

Eugenie | 2 comments Thanks Kristi


message 121: by Kristina Simon (new)

Kristina Simon (kristinasimon) | 11213 comments Marie-anne wrote: "Can I use Do or Die in "Aye Do or Die"?"

No, it should be two words that can be linked together by an "and" not an "or." Do and die won't work.


message 122: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 891 comments How about Sex, Gossip and Rock & Roll using Rock and Roll for the one book option?


message 123: by Nicola (new)

Nicola | 173 comments Can I use Mother and Son in the book "My Mother, My Son"?


message 124: by Kristina Simon (new)

Rock & Roll works.

Mother and son work.


message 126: by Nicola (new)

Nicola | 173 comments How about four and score, as in units of time, for Four to Score by Janet Evanovich?


message 127: by Kristina Simon (new)

The time unit fourscore is actually one word, not two. So, no, sorry, that won't work. You're looking for two words that are commonly connected with the word "and," if that helps.

Nicola | 173 comments Alright - just trying to place Four to Score, and don't really have a spot for it


message 129: by Jared (new)

Jared | 1 comments Is there a word that covers these couplings? Obviously something better than coupling, like anagram, metaphor etc
