	Shouldn't the 'Editor Pick' tag next to the quiz's name have disappeared when the quiz was published?

	Very clever quiz! I approve!

	I agree, travelinheel09. I like the compact, symmetrical nature of the ladders. The presentation is pleasing to the eye. Very well done!

	Oh now I get it! And I guessed lorn for "politically conservative" and got it for something else haha

	Good work: as separate quizzes these ladders wouldn't amount to much, but together they make a great quiz. Greater than the sum of its parts, I think.

	I spent a while thinking "what have the authors got to do with this?", then I realised and thought "Ah! Now that's clever!"

	Easy once you figure out each book. But very clever! Well done.

	Big_E- how is it easy once you figure out each book? Only the first and last clue in each column have anything to do with the book.

	@chiefyratain: Because the first and last clues are among the most difficult. The words in the middle of the ladders are pretty easy by comparison. Just look at the stats.

	A fine quiz! I had to disagree with NY_MOB and the stats (palindrome!), but maybe I'm just well read. It was rather easy to figure out the clues when you knew the book only because its much easier to go both down and up the ladder.

	This was a great quiz. I fav'd it :)
