Using LINQ to remove elements from a List

Question

Say that I have LINQ query such as:

var authors = from x in authorsList
              where x.firstname == \"Bob\"
              select x;

Answer 1

Say that authorsToRemove is an IEnumerable that contains the elements you want to remove from authorsList.

Then here is another very simple way to accomplish the removal task asked by the OP:

authorsList.RemoveAll(authorsToRemove.Contains);
