The A-Z Reading Challenge is hosted by Joy (who also hosts the First in a Series and Young Adult challenges (see links list)).
Rules:
- align the author’s last name or the title of a book (excluding “the”, “a”, etc.) with its corresponding letter in the alphabet- enter a different book for each author and title (total of 52 books)
- complete the alphabet lists anyway that suits your fancy
(i.e.: complete each list separately in alphabetical order, read both “A” entries, then “B” entries, fit whatever you’re reading into any list, etc.)- complete the challenge in the year 2008
For this challenge, I won’t be doing a list of books to read, but instead add titles/authors onto the list as I read them. I think it’ll be easier that way, plus fifty-two books for one challenge seems like a little too many to plan so rigorously. I don’t like to have too much set in stone. I like a bit of freedom in my reading choices (I’ve seen some people plan their entire year’s reading beforehand, with a schedule as to when exactly to read a particular book. I could never do that).
