This may be too high-brow for most of you, but promise me you'll give it a whirl. The object of the game is to find books whose titles are particularly amusing when appended with "...in Your Pants." I'll start with some selections from my book group:
Waiting in Your Pants
Little Children in Your Pants
Liars and Saints in Your Pants
A Changed Man in Your Pants
Pattern Recognition in Your Pants
Never mind, I knew it was too sophisticated for the likes of my readership. <guffaw, guffaw>
Big Lies in Your Pants in Your Pants
The Perfect Cup in Your Pants
Angels & Demons in Your Pants
Dancing Barefoot in Your Pants
Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell in Your Pants

That's like when you read a fortune from a fortune cookie? Always add "in bed" at the end. Once you know this, you'll never look at a fortune cookie the same way ever again.

That reminds me of a game to play at a Chinese restaurant with a group of friends:
At the end of the meal (after a drink or two, perhaps?), everyone opens their fortune cookies and reads them aloud - but adds "in bed" to the end.
Now, doesn't your game look a little more sophisticated? >G<

I have been keeping a book journal for ten years, so I have approximately 775 titles to go through. Thanks for providing me with this diversion...here are just a few:
Necessary Madness in your pants
Water Witches in your pants
The Bone Collector in your pants (eeeuuuuwww!)
The Persian Pickle Club in your pants (double eeeuuuwww!)
A Fine Balance in your pants
Truth & Beauty in your pants
The Perfect Mile in your pants (hmmmmm....)
I wonder if it would be good if we used "in your knickers" for British books like:
Pride & Prejudice in your knickers.
Wuthering Heights in your knickers.

I just finished reading All the Pretty Horses (in your pants). But then, what wouldn't sound pretty funny appended by "in your pants?"
