| Loved it. Until my brain decided to mix up Roald Dahl and Charles Dickens for some asinine reason |

| I liked the quiz, and it was a perfect use of this new format. I think it would be kinder to alphabetize by last name. |

| I don't understand the point of putting in just one extra that doesn't get used. Not that it was particularly deceptive, I just think if you're going to go that route than put 5 or 6 extras in. |

| I didn't know that E.B. White had written Stuart Little, or that Stephen King had written The Shawshank Redemption... but those being my last two answers left, I felt pretty confident in my guess that Stephen King had *not* written Stuart Little. |

| Alphabetical by first name proved a bit tricky. |

| Great Idea for a quiz! I really liked it! I only got like 3/4 of it but it was still great!
My favorite would have to be Tarzan! Nobody really knows who wrote the original books so I think it was a great choice! |

| Maybe it's just me, but I would have found it easier if the authors were alphabetized by their last names instead of their first names. |

| I agree it would have easier if alphabetized by last name, but I thoroughly enjoyed the extra challenge of having to think of the first names/initials. Great Quiz!! |

| Toad of Toad Hall is the first of several dramatisations of Kenneth Grahame's 1908 novel The Wind in the Willows. It was written by A. A. Milne, with incidental music by Harold Fraser-Simson.
Has anybody tried A.A. Milne for Mr. Toad? |

| Alphabetical by first name is flat out silly! |

| @midnightdj: I think it's the only way, given the game format. It certainly didn't detract from the quiz for me - nice range of characters. |

| When I saw Alexandre Dumas was on the list, all I could think of was that scene from Shawshank Redemption where Heywood mistakenly calls him Alexandre Dumbass. And wouldn't you know it, Andy Dufresne eventually popped up as a question. It made me laugh. |

| 4 stars and would've been 5 if you had alphabetized by last name, which is just plain common sense. |
 | clapifyoulikeme: | Apr 28th, 2012 at 21:35 GMT | | 11 points |
| Five stars, though I too would prefer the last name order. BUT I prefer it as "John Steinbeck" not "Steinbeck, John". So I don't know if you *can* alphabetize by last name and keep them in that format. |

| Great quiz! It wasn't that hard to look through the list for authors (especially as they were knocked out), so I didn't care too much about the alphabetization. The only one I had a question about (Puss in Boots) came next to last for me, so I didn't have an issue. |

| Great quiz! I knew most of the characters, but I didn't know who created them half the time. I like how you included modern literature characters, but.....no Percy Jackson???? |

| The point and click lends itself so well to these match 'em up lists. Another great quiz from LTH! |

| @AlexRandom's comment: You can never be sure about such things...Ian Fleming gave us both all those James Bond novels and "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"! |

| Sorry about the alphabetization issue everyone but there's not much I can do about that unless you prefer "Steinbeck, John" as @clapifyoulikeme mentioned. |

| I agree, there should be a way to alphabetize the answers. |
| OwenHerring: | Apr 29th, 2012 at 09:06 GMT | | -1 points |
| The easiest way to alphabetise the answers is to leave out the first name. Most authors are sufficiently well-known by surnames. |
 | RonB: | Apr 29th, 2012 at 16:15 GMT | | 9 points |
| It was a great quiz. The alphabetization was easy to get used to. It's kind of anal retentive to obsess on it. There was plenty of time to finish even if LTH had alphabetized by MIDDLE names! |

| This one was very easy. The hardest part was searching out the author's name due to the odd alphabetization. |

| @RonB is right on with his comment. Get over the alphaetization folks. It's really not a big deal. |

| Sporcle literature quizzes always seems to include only books that have been turned into movies. |

| @dougbutcher I think it's pretty obvious that A.A. Milne is supposed to go with Winnie the Pooh :) |

| Sorry, that sounded really snobby. I thought the quiz was really fun! But including Suzanne Collins just seemed weird and random. |

| Although not a problem for me here, I alphabetalize surnames/things by putting them in alphabetical order in the Data page and, under Options, leaving the 'Randomize order of answers' and 'Put answers in alphabetical order' boxes empty. I merely randomise the order of questions. |
| LTH: | May 15th, 2012 at 16:19 GMT | | 1 point |
| @Cortez, now why didn't I think of that? It's a little too late now, but they are now sorted alphabetically by surname. |

| At the time of this writing, the answers with slashes (ie. pen names) are not being accepted properly. They come up as wrong even when clicked for the correct clue. |
