Everyone loves Jimmy Fallon‘s hashtag challenges, and for good reason – he comes up with super great prompts, and with the possibility of five minutes of fame on the table should your answer be chosen, really clever people are always willing to throw their tweets into the ring.

It's time for Tonight Show: At Home Edition Hashtags! Change the title of a book to make it fit with quarantining, and tag it with #QuarantineABook. Could be on the show!
