No, because the end of the universe was a time, rather than a place.

No,..."


Couldn't "restaurant" technically work, though?


message 53: by Coralie (new)

Coralie Sorry, it doesn't count as a place name.

TMBookluvr (tmb1981) | 271 comments cool thanks for answering..i'll see what else I have lying around! :-)


message 55: by Lindsey (new)

Lindsey (mamamunky) | 185 comments I have a few questions. 1. Would Neverwhere work for "where"? 2. Would a Doctor Who book such as Doctor Who: The Stone Rose work for who? (In case you don't know, his name isn't Doctor Who, its the question people ask when he says "I'm the Doctor" 3. For a time or date would evening, afternoon, or hour work? Thank you!

Just for information (in case it makes a difference), "The Restaurant At The End of the Universe" is the actual name of the restaurant in the book.

Sorry, I take that back. It had another name. "The restaurant at the end of the universe" was what it was known as... a nickname, so to speak.

Yes to Doctor Who, no to Neverwhere.
Yes to evening and afternoon, no to hour.

Diane ~Firefly~ Does either A Misty Harbor Wedding or Smoky Mountain Tracks work for the place name?


message 61: by Manday (new)

Manday | 307 comments Do these two books work? My grammar is horrible, but I think this is right:

How Proust Can Change Your Life: Not a Novel and Still Missing

Where the Evil Dwells by Clifford D. Simak
[book:Why Call Them Back from Heaven?|75706..."

If Misty is the name of the harbor, and Smoky the name of the mountain, rather than describing the wedding and the tracks, they both work.

Yes, that is fine. Still is an adverb in this case.


Jayme Pendergraft | 762 comments Hi Coralie,

Would Firefly Beach work for the place name? It is the name of the place in the book. Thank you!

Misty Harbor is the name of the town and Smoky Mountain is the name of the community, so they count as place names, not adverbs, correct?


message 66: by Coralie (new)

Coralie Yes, to Firefly Beach, Misty Harbor and Smoky Mountain.


Jayme Pendergraft | 762 comments Thank you!

Muddrose22 For the answer to How would you accept Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency?

I will let you have it because I think this is the hardest Q & A of the lot.

Muddrose22 Thanks!

Terri FL (territhemuse) | 615 comments Here's an adverb suggestion for anyone who likes international literature. I'm using this one. There a Petal Silently Falls: Three Stories by Ch'oe Yun

A) Those Who Save Us
B) Raising Kane - Kane is the main character...

yippee!!


message 74: by Leigh Ann (new)

Leigh Ann (leighannflyingonsilverwings) Would City of Ashes work for WHERE?


message 75: by Coralie (new)

Coralie Leigh Ann wrote: "Would City of Ashes work for WHERE?"

No, because it is not the name of the place (please correct me if I am wrong), just a description.

Thanks! I hadn't even read through the whole messageboard:-)

Rach (rachlovestv) | 261 comments Ok, I know this challenge is almost over, but I'm trying to shift some books around, and was wondering if Sunshine would work for the second book of C (who). Sunshine is the main character's nickname. Not sure if nicknames were allowed, or if it has to be given names. :) Thanks!


message 80: by Coralie (new)

Coralie That sounds fine by me. If that's what she's called, that counts as a name as far as I'm concerned.


message 81: by Rach (new)

Rach (rachlovestv) | 261 comments Awesome! Thanks, Coralie!
