Listening Library Part II: Books With Titles Taken From Popular Songs

It's unfair, really, that everyone asks rockers to write their autobiographies, but no one asks authors to record albums. But the scribes get their revenge when they sell a few extra copies of their books by stealing titles from popular songs. Were Guess Who fans enraged to discover that "She's Come Undone" was a coming-of-age novel and not a kiss-and-tell about Burton Cummings? If I knew any Guess Who fans, I'd ask them.
