Nice idea, more difficult than I expected. One correction, you left the starting "a" in "Anmlfrm".

Y is a vowel most of the time. And it is definitely is a vowel in the two titles you picked.

Really nice quiz! It was a wee bit daunting at first, but I managed.

Agreed with sproutcm; also, "lsss" is a totally sweet clue for this puzzle.

I noticed "lsss" was in the comment section but not in the current quiz. So, what was the answer for "lsss"?

Y is not a vowel, so it can't be Ulysses... perhaps that's why it's no longer in the quiz?

@Bulletchewr6: Y would be a vowel in the title of Ulysses

Good idea - choices were a little obvious, but I enjoyed it, much as I enjoyed the missing vowels quiz that came out last year

Always the same books in these quizzes (anagrams, vowelless, opposites) - it takes away a lot of the challenge knowing the books are going to always be among the 50 most read books of all time.

Y would be a vowel in the title but as many would assume it to be a consonant I would guess that's the reason it vanished?
I finished it with 2:43 left on the clock.... and that leaves me to wonder, as only 14% got them all, do I actually use vowels in real life?

"Little Women" is quickly becoming the "Kyrgyzstan" of Literature quizzes. It appears in too many quizzes, everybody's heard of it at Sporcle, but no one actually has any first hand experience with it.

Little Women is a great book, but it is becoming over used in the quizzes. Someone should put Little Men (Another book by Alcott)in a quiz sometime just to see if it screws everyone up. Also, people should stop using the same book over and over. The idea behind the quizzes are good, but using the same books time and again makes them easy and boring.

No, technically there are only 5 vowels. Y is first and foremost a consonant. Just ask Carol Vorderman. Kudos for avoiding hrrYpttr & thlrdfthrngs though!

Note also the "y" at the end of "gtsby" and see just how my argument is winning, despite popular misconceptions.

Y in English is a consonant in the onset and a vowel in the nucleus. It's a simple linguistic fact. In the onset it's the consonant phoneme [j] and in the nucleus it's one of several vowel phonemes depending on the word. There's no two ways about it. As such, it'd be swell of thgrtgtsby got rid of its vowel unless anyone would care to prove me wrong.

(Sorry if that comes off as 'hostile', it's a great quiz, but that was more for the commenters than the quiz creator; it's still wrong, but yeah, otherwise good quiz.)

The first five were so easy I thought I would whip through this one. I ended up having trouble with only three (Tale of Two Cities, The Time Machine, and Treasure Island) and still finished with 1:30 left.
