Book quiz maker in need of inspiration

Hi,
I'm 23 and I come from Norfolk, England. I am definitely a big fan of books. I've got plenty anyway :D I'll read pretty much anything, I don't have a specific genre that I prefer but some of my favourites are Carl Hiaasen, Jayne Ann Krentz, Anthony Bourdain and Janet Evanovich. I like poetry and the classics like Homer and Dante, so quite a wide range of interests.

The reason I decided to try books forums is that I've recently started working for an online book quiz http://thebookquiz.com/ I'm trying to come up with interesting quiz topics. It's a drag and drop quiz so you drag the book title to the author. Anyone who has a minute can go over and have a look to see what I mean. If anybody wants to make their own quiz you can do that to. Also any feedback on the site would be appreciated. So basically I'm looking for interesting themes and titles for the quizzes because I'm running out of ideas.

Looking forward to any suggestions.

I'm going to move this out of the Intro forum and to the General Discussion forum.

Some of those quizzes are pretty tough! Nice challenge though...

What about a quiz where the book titles are also the titles of songs? Girlfriend in a Coma, For Whom the Bell Tolls...

That's a really good idea. I'll definitely be giving it a go. It might take me a while to come up with 10 song titles though...

Would you say that some of them were too hard? I'm trying to keep the balance on each quiz so most people could get some but also put in one or two really obscure titles.

Thanks for taking a look anyway :D
