The 52 Book Club: 2025 Challenge discussion

For this category, pick a book that has a similar (or identical) title to another book. You don’t have to read both books, just one. (But if you find a way to work the other book into the list too, bonus props for you! Could be a fun option for prompt #52?)

The Serpent of Venice

The Outsiders

The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton

"Cat's Eye" by Margaret Atwood
(Catseye by Andre Norton)

The Witches and The Witches: Salem, 1692

I’m reading ‘The Woman in the Window’ and ‘Man in the Window’ for this prompt and prompt 52 (Redo one of the previous 51 prompts)

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail both by Hunter S. Thompson.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland / Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll

Queens Gambit by either Elizabeth Fremantle or Walter Tevis

Scarlet

I'm undecided on this at the moment but I'll find one sooner or later

I See You by Mary Burton

The Secret Lives of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd

"Sleep Softly" by Gwen Hunter (Dr Seuss's Sleep Softly Book).

The Truth of Me by Patricia MacLachlan. Similar to The Truth about Me.

I plan to read Never Have I Ever -- handy because it is a BC selection for one of my groups this month. And, has numerous books with the same or very similar titles!

I'm currently reading The One: A Novel by John Marrs, almost identical title to The One by Kiera Cass.

One of Us is Next by Karen M. McManus
Completed: January 4, 2021

(Similar to One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus)

I read The Thief which is similar to pretty much any book named The _____ Thief.

Brotherhood in Death by JD Robb. Similar titles in all of this series.

similar to many books

Something Fishy (A Sanibel Island Mystery #2)

Completion Post:

Just finished reading: "Yesterday" written by Felicia Yap (★★★★☆) it is a science fiction thriller mystery set in a world where a protein destroys humanity's long term memory where people could only remember what happened a day or two before and depends on journals to function. It also makes things rather difficult in a murder mystery, when suspects can't remember the incident. This book shares its title with another book written by Fern Michaels, which I have already started reading for challenge #52.

Yap fully exploits her provocative premise in a world where it is divided into Monos and Duos, people remember a day or two respectively. The narrative moves between past and present and back and forth among the three diaries and the detective investigating the murder.

The Borrowers Avenged

Honor Yourself
Similar to Honor Thyself

Legacy

Invisible Man and THE Invisible Man

I chose Invisible Man also.

I read The Henna Wars by Adiba Jaigirdar, 3 Stars. Sounded close enough to The Henna Artist for me.

A Study in Scarlett- Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

A Study in Scarlet Women - Sherry Thomas

I picked The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid (similar to The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton) for this prompt. I really enjoyed this one.

The Survivor by Gregg Hurwitz https://cdnbookworm.blogspot.com/2021...

Gilead

I am going a little outside the box and reading Gilead. Gilead is the new nation in The Handmaid's Tale so I always thought this was a sequel to the Handmaid's Tale until I read Gilead's summary.

I read Code Name Helene’, which is similar to Code Name Verity.

IQ84 by Haruki Murakami

I read Dead Reckoning by Michael Corbin Ray and Therese Vannier (who happen to be friends of mine). I found numerous other books with this same title by many other authors, including: Charlaine Harris, Dick Lehr, Caitlin Rother, Daniel Sheppard, Christy Barritt, Emma Walker, Ronald W. Doerfler, Michael M.D. Baden and Marion Roach, Dawn Lee McKenna and Axel Blackwell, and Pandora Pine. Believe it or not, the list goes on.

Hush-Hush by Stuart Woods
