	Is it worth mentioning that "head" needs one more letter to be half the word?

	I'd be interested in a half price book called Turtle Wombat.

	Kept thinking Jack and the Beanstalk. -____-

	'Tortilla Flat'! I've even got that on the shelf behind me right now, but I've never got around to reading it...maybe that's why I missed it. :/

	Totally thought it was Little Wombat at first.

	Good quiz, but I would suggest making sure that each word has an even number of letters. The way it is now, there is inconsistency with odd-numbered words - sometimes you make the larger "half" the half you show and sometimes it's the half you hide.

	"alom, Absa." hehe I see what you did there.

	I JUST READ Tortilla Flat and didn't get it. Instead, I guessed "Vanilla Flan," which I think would make for a pretty tasty book.

	What in the world is McElligot's Pool? to keep us from getting 100%? It was just odd to have a few letters missing from one word and many letters missing from the other

	since you were pretty consistent about including punctuation, why did you leave the hyphen out of moby-dick? my understanding is that even though the whale's name is moby dick, the title of the book is moby-dick.

	@laschmela: LOL, I guessed Vanilla Flan too! @witz1960: It's a kid's book by Dr. Seuss.

	WeaselKing1000:	Dec 31st, 2011 at 17:27 GMT	4 points
	@witz1960 In each case, half of both words is missing. So proportionally it is consistent.

	head Revis should be shead Revis.

	In on Qui, we've got less than half of the second word to go on. On the other hand, we've got more than half of the first word, so maybe that's fair. (And I don't really expect you to change it to ɔn Qui›, although that would be fun....)

	It should really be "tch-11" on here, imo...:)
