2 authors challenge

[Jamie (The Perpetual Page-Turner)]

Any good ideas for this challenge? The only one I thought of is The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society but I recently read that and I don't really feel like reading it again so soon.

Just a clarification for this topic -- It's for task 5.8) Let's Find Out If Two Heads Really Better Than One - Read A Book That Has More Than One Author.

This is not for Donna Jo's Task, choose 2 authors that are RELATED?

Correct?

[Jennifer]

Some others -

Vancouver by David Cruise and Alison Griffiths

The Rule of Four by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason

This is not for Donna Jo's Task, choose..."Yes Donna Jo's task requires two books vs. this one that requires one with two authors that can but don't have to be related.

[Natalie]

Many non-fiction books, especially biographies of famous poeople that are not authors by trade, are written with someone (who actually knows how to write) or have more than one author. Just a thought for anyone still looking for a book.

[Sara ♥]

FYI - Cynthia approved us reading a book where more than one person wrote the book under a single pseudonym, like the three Krista mentioned in message 9, above.

[Rora]

I'm planning on reading Sorcery and Cecelia or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer. I was supposed to read it for the summer challenge, but I don't think I'll get to it.

Perfect idea! I have been meaning to fit that in for THE LONGEST! You are awesome, Cait!

[Jessica]

For those with books-about-books love, Nancy and Lawrence Goldstone have authored several books about their mutual love of book collecting. Since they're spouses, their books would also work for Donna Jo's task.

Another non-fiction option is Adrian Levy and Catherine Scott-Clark, who co-wrote The Stone of Heaven (which is about jade) and The Amber Room, about the famous lost Russian treasure.

Except for my task they would have to write books separately, not together.

Jefferson Bass

Jefferson Bass is the writing team of Dr. Bill Bass and Jon Jefferson. Dr. Bass, a world-renowned forensic anthropologist, founded the University of Tennessee's Anthropology Research Facility -- the Body Farm.

They have written a series of 'Body Farm' novels. Bones of Betrayal A Body Farm Novel being one of them.

Cynthia, for this task, I was thinking of reading Click, which has chapters contributed by different authors. Would that count?

[Nicki]

I presume Pride and Prejudice and Zombies would work as it's by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith?

[Megan]

Where the Lilies Bloom is by Vera and Bill Cleaver. I read it ages and ages ago. I remember it made me sad.

Just came across another series co-written by two authors.

[Krista]

I don't know why I feel this compulsion to post to this thread... but today I found another pair of writers that have written books together. I thought I might as well share the info.

Lawrence Goldstone and Nancy Goldstone
