Just 2 left. Any help appreciated.

14Ac "Following common ending to text, it comes before a book title" (6) L?L?T?
Could it be LOLITA. Haven't any reason for suggesting this, but can't think of any other word.

31Ac "In the end, one who doesn't believe in fighting shows a belligerent gesture" (4) ?IS?

Thanks to any posters who can solve these.
