message 1: by Hallie, I'm all about the books (new)

Hallie (inkyhallie) | 5470 comments Mod
Ìý

This is popular in many places, so I decided to make one here too.

Read books starting from A to Z. You need not do it in order. Just take the first letter of the title into consideration. Authors are not allowed if you are doing a book A-Z.

Similarly, if you want to do an Author A-Z, use the names of authors instead of book titles.

Duration: Nobody cares.

Can't believe I found a chat about this challenge. I started this challenge about half way through the year have a couple of letters to go but might update my progress on here. I am finding it really interesting and challenging... makes you think about the books you pick up and read. :)

Well I do love my books. I am kind of aiming to get this challenge finished by next summer time. Also these are all the books I red this year and as I said I just love books and often find I read too much :)

Bookfairy (pepperthymed) Could stick some classics in there, if you haven't read them, like U-Ulysses?

message 27: by Elaine Mullane (last edited May 02, 2017 08:50AM) (new)

Elaine Mullane || Elaine and the Books (elainemullane) In 2012 I did a 52-book A-Z Reading Challenge. It basically translated as a book a week and I did both Title A-Z and Author A-Z.

The full list of books is on my page under the shelf "2012 52 Book A-Z Reading Challenge" if anyone is looking for suggestions of titles!

I might just do another one this year and pick either title or author.
