June

[Tr1sha]

Another number challenge for June. As usual, read classic books or short stories in any language you prefer. As June has 4 letters, the challenge is to find the number 4 in a book title or the year of publication

For example,
4:50 from Paddington by Agatha Christie - title
1984 by George Orwell - title & also publication date 1948

Too difficult? Then cheat! Read a classic book that you would recommend as a 4* read to other people in the group. Have fun!
