I know what the book is. I have it figured out. And you were right Justine, it was just one click away. Well, actually more like 5 or ten. But still I am convinced I know what it is!

It must be something by Shampoo.
Trouble? Blisters and Bruises?

Or maybe “Girl Power”?

OMG Justine!!!! I know it!!!!!!!!! It involves lodgers, lying and lie detectors, and DNA race testing. To know how i know this, click on the “next novel” tag.

Am I right? I am. I’m amazing.

hillary!: And why is it that Justine always forgets an ‘L’ in my name? Fixed. To answer your question: A) Yours is not the only name I misspell. B) See this post.

I can’t think of any! My father was into punk and grunge! ARGH! The girliest music I listened to as a kid was No Doubt, and that was because of my mammi!

OMG, Carie, how could you forget Nancy Sinatra and her white go-go boots?

Okay, so maybe it’s just me…

I was on the lying/DNA track last night, but my brain has now been stuck on “Sweet Little Lies” for 12 hours, and Fleetwood Mac isn’t an all-girl band *or* from the 1990s.

And obviously, the new novel is something about lying and DNA and maybe even aliens… At least, that’s what I gather from her “one click” hint. Of course, this goes against my Veruca Salt/Seether theory.

Let’s start focusing in on songs from the nineties by all girl bands that have something to do with lying, okay?

Okay, I’m taking off my Internet Detective Hat now…

all i can think is These Boots Were Made for Walking. but i stink so much at music that i don’t even know who sang it and when!

By: Gary B. Phillips

I immediately thought of Veruca Salt. I think they were an all girl band… I’d guess that the song/title is Seether.

Laura: You’ve all had masses of hints. There will be no more.

By: Laura

The Breeders? Indigo Girls? TLC? Destiny’s Child? Dixie Chicks? Wilson Phillips? En Vogue?

I think we need a hint here. Is it an actual girl band with instruments or more like a girl group with just singers?

And me, I remain content that none of youse is even close. My secret is safe!

It’s gotta be “Capri Pants” by Bikini Kill.

By: Dave H.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who immediately thought of “Walk Like an Egyptian” and Banananananananarama.

Given Justine’s new boots, though, I think the new novel must be “Cowboy Take Me Away”. I’m sure J is a huge Dixie Chicks fan.

That would be Stay with Shakespear’s Sister of course. Shouldn’t really be to difficult to get some fanatsy elements in that one.

You better hope and pray that you’ll make it safe back to your own world. You better hope and pray that you’ll wake one day in your own world …

Well, obviously it’s Sleater-Kinney, “Things You Say”. Obviously.

So it’s 4 Non-blondes – What’s Up?

And it is all about trying to climb that great big hill of hope?
For a destination?

Hmm . . . since you said ‘band’ rather than ‘group’, I’m thinking of riot grrrls. Hole?

You is all wrong. And not just wrong but massively off-track. Yay! I win!

naaah. walk like an egyptian. that must be it. and don’t tell me that was from the eighties – henceforth i will think of justine’s new novel being about luscious susanna something doing crazy-lovely dance bits.

When you say all girl band combined with 90′s, all I can think is Spice Girls.
