Guess the Table of Contents!

So you know twenty of the entries in the book - but can you guess the other eighty? You have a month to make your best guesses for the other eighty, before they're revealed. Whoever gets the most correct the fastest gets a free signed copy of the book.

Here's the rules:

• Mail your guesses to contest@rejectedprincesses.com by the end of day, September 9, 2016.
• You have to guess all eighty - or as many as you can - at once.
• One guess per question, and only one email per entrant - any followup emails with adjustments to your first guesses won't get counted.
• If nobody gets all the questions correct, whoever got the most correct the fastest wins.
• Some entries break standing RP traditions - a couple have been alive in the past fifty years. At least one is a group as opposed to an individual. Several have been at least mentioned on the site before.
• If you're unsure as to the spelling of some names, just do your best, I'll probably be able to tell what you meant.
• If you're related to me, I can't have you enter this. Sorry, y'all - I'll get you books anyways.
• A lot of the hints are quite difficult. They're meant to be.
