I think you're mixing up this thread with another one: http://www.librarything.com/topic/293116

Here you want titles beginning with the next five letters of the alphabet.

"titles beginning with the next five letters of the alphabet . . ." (34-35)

Now I'm confused.

O follows N, and P follows O, why then two Ds and an F? Should be Q, R, and S, no?

sorry; I fell off of the rules of "ABCʻs" again,
and went onto "One Thing Follows Another".

Is the "Search" function working for everyone?
I havenʻt gotten anything onto th screen from
my last 10-15 Searches -- except, sometmes
an error message: "Null is not an object."
If not an "object", then what is it? Who said anything about "null" anyway? And if I find out what "null" is, what am I supposed to do about it?

// I have trouble with the search function too, I have 'no results' at any word I search for ,Site search is down for the time being, Tagmash does work: https://www.librarything.com/tag/ //

I've never played before, so please tell me if I'm doing something against the rules. I see that I have been left with U V W X Y. I'm going to skip the X and take Z instead.
