Could I beg for author title in the one sentence?

Huxley did what... and why do I have Edith Wharton in my head somehow?

Hell, had I known you were looking for books, I'd have pulled mine out for you. I don't even remember what all I have anymore tho. I've read so many of them the titles and authors kinda blend together.

Sorry about that... I hit enter and it had submitted before I could go back and put in the authors.

Another...
