A to Z Reading Challenge

This challenge looks like fun :-) If readers would like to take part, please head on over to Joy's site for more info.


Requirements:

~ 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 either list, etc.)

~ complete the challenge in the year 2008

~ enjoy the experience!

Richard Awlinson is possibly a bit of a cheat cos it's actually a pseudonym for a group of writers. However I think I'm balancing it by only mentioning the three books in the series once instead of three times !

Right - that's the easy ones that I've already read in the not too distant past, I've got a Heinlein book to put in authors when I finish it and then it's looking to keep on reading for the rest of the year :-) 13/26 on books and 11/26 on authors so far.
