Here is a new idea. To start it off I have took a name of one my favorite books and changed one of the words to COMM.
(A easy one)
COMM, Ask Not.
1.. Must have more than one word in the title of book.
2.. Name of author
3.. First reply gets to go next.
EDITed to clarify.

One assumes that if no-one can guess your book you 'win'? In that case why not choose a book which only has a one-worded title?

Answer anyway you can. (Minus a Search Engine) Friends, relatives, aliens....doesn't matter.
As to books, any group will work.
example: Green COMM and Ham
example: COMM 451
Don't answer these two, they are for an example only.

That's what I get for posting late at night after having a late night previously.
My bad.
EDIT-How about this: The COMM? Considering how many possibilities there are for this then maybe Weasel should make a rule preventing this one too.
