	Great quiz! These are definitely harder than a normal scramble because they're not words that you would see and identify easily.

	Five globes for using realigns in a scramble.

	I stared at what was actually Wharton for the longest time trying to figure out what it wasn't accepting Hawthorn. Phantom h got me.

	Good grief! First time ever I've scored at the 50th percentile with just two correct answers :-)

	@Meltha there's an E at the end of Hawthorne. You imagined TWO letters.

	I thought I was doing terrible with 50% correct until I saw the stats. Those were hard!

	Did anybody else say Wolof for Folow? I think I have had too much Sporcle.

	I've read most of these authors, and pretty recently too. High School helped me get 100%.

	Hard, but awesome! Unusual to have a literature quiz with Austen as one of the least guessed…

	Tough one. I must've forgotten that there are still words printed on paper somewhere out there!

	I'm ashamed, as an English major, to see how many I got wrong, and they're all very recognizable authors that I've read. :(

	I so utterly disagree with this quiz. When you get a mixed word quiz, you expect to have English words. These are not English words, rather than vocabulary what is necessary to succeed on this quiz is the awareness of some authors that some people think are good writers. This is NOT appropriate for a mixed word quiz as a vocabulary puzzle, rather it is appropriate for the literature section (For example you wouldn't put a similar quiz of African capitals as a vocabulary section and then dismiss it when people don't know Windhoek; you would put it in Geography where it belongs. Regardless of accessibility this is no different.) As an English class hater throughout all of high school and college, I feel that this quiz was so thoroughly out of place, and as a sporcle challenge I couldn't avoid doing it once I realized what it was. Therefore I rate the quiz one star, and my disdain.
