Book Haven discussion

This is similar to the book cover hunt, but instead of looking for something on the cover, you look for something in the plot of the story. If I said "fire", you would name a book that includes a fire somewhere in the plot of the story. This will be very easy for you if you have a good memory...

1. Fire
2. A male is turned into a vampire
3. A Dragon gives birth to its young
4. Best friends fall in love
5. The main character is betrayed by someone he/she trusts
6. The main character is trying to break a curse
7. The female has more than one love interest
8. Has vampire hunters in it
9. A coven of witches are in it
10. The villain is psychic

Sookie Stackhouse Dead As A Doornail. Her house is set on fire. I am a cheater. I looked this up in the Wikipeda. However there are so many fires in Sookie Stackhouse Stories. LOL! Let me see Bills house catches fire in Dead Until Dark I think. The latest book Dead Reckoning has Merrolottes fire bombed with Sookie inside. I remembered that cause I read it in June. Sookie Stackhouse Fire Starter. ;)

Right on Lisa East of Eden. Steinbeck rocks. I love Canery Row best myself. Fire is the grand finale of The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. Love that story cause I am from Tulsa, back living in Tulsa, and I am one of the outsiders. Most of the places in that story are the places of my youth.

19. Pride and Prejudice

1. The Fire-Eaters
