A book by any other name

Struggling to come up with a decent title for the not-so-sekret project. Having failed at several other methods I'm now compiling a list of suitable verbs and nouns, then playing random mix & match. I'll probably wind up with a title like CHASING KIBBLE or DEATH BY SEMI-COLON.

Luckily I don't need a title at this stage of the game--it would be nice to have, but it's not an absolute requirement.

Reading: Finished DEXTER IN THE DARK by Jeff Lindsay, the third novel in his Dexter series. I enjoyed the book, but not as much as the first two, largely because of the continuing evolution of young Astor and Cody into budding serial killers. Interestingly enough, based on the first season of Dexter on Showtime, I get the sense that this is one of the areas where the television show and books will diverge. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the new season on Showtime which starts next Sunday.

well, maybe they would, since your books are going to be very different - and his are placed in fiction. I am guessing this one will not be?

Its worthing throwing in, along with one or two other recommendations, I guess. Something Strange doesnt have the same ring, though.

I will probably toss that one into the hat, along with a couple of others I came up with at lunch.

BUY THIS BOOK DAMMIT, has a ring to it, but may be a tad aggressive :-)

I don't know though, it might work. After all, Steal This Book was always a good selling title.

Maybe some reverse psych - Dont Buy this Book would attract a new audience.
