The contestant said "Ronald Reagan", while the correct answer was intended to be "Harrison Ford"... at the end they gave a correct score to the contestant

Which leads me to a trick. If you can't find a well-known book title, you can write your own book, give it a title with the 11 letters, and make it well-known before the contest ends
The trouble is what does "well-known book title" mean. How many languages is well-known book translated in? 2 or 10? How many results have I to find writing well-known title to google? Is it 200.000 enough or not?
List of the most famous books should contain 100 titles according to some people, 10.000 according to others...
