Maybe I'm just overthinking too hard. LOL!

Would this work..."

Yes! I think a lot of people overthink, especially if English is your first language. Whatever your mother/parent language is can frame how you think about and approach language.

It's my second, so I still think in agglutinative chunks, and have to parse into English.

There is this book “How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia” that probably fits the prompt

Yay! I can't wait to hear how the book is. I haven't read it, but I was looking through my titles, too.

While I do want to get to this, I may not have the time to this month since it's filled with books for Women's History Month and Nature/Ecology Books Month.

I do want to read it so it may be one I hold off until April.

Would Where They Found Her count as a complete sentence or is it more of a fragment?

[Linda]

Cathern - no, sorry. It would be a clause.
(If they had eliminated the word "where" it would have worked).

Clara.lyc - no, that's not a complete sentence. It's a dependent clause.

[Trish]

I reckon this counts: For Whom the Minivan Rolls. I certainly haven't come across any other possibilities yet.

[Linda]

Trish -- that is not a sentence. It is a prepositional phrase.

"We Are Watching Eliza Bright" was brilliant. I loved the "Greek chorus" style of unreliable narrator. I've only seen that in one other book, The Ladies Auxiliary by Tova Mirvis.

It look me a minute to settle in, but I wound up really enjoying that aspect of it. Then We Came to the End uses 1st person plural, but's not so much a "Greek chorus" type of narrator as it is a just a plain "we". I've never heard of The Ladies Auxiliary, but I might check that out!

someone you trust
we hunt the flame
someone else's bucket list

"We Hunt the Flame" would qualify.
