YA Book Gang!! discussion

Ok guys for 2014 there's going to be the classic ABC Challenge.
So you go from A - Z and you can use either the title of the book or the authors name cause really x, y, and z are really tough ones to find in titles alone.
So anyone joining post below and tells us what you're reading :)

We post what we're reading here?

Yup you can if you want :)

Okay!

For the authors names do they have to be the last names in order to read them?

First or Last, it doesn't matter :)

Here's what I've got so far :)

i dont understand can someone explain to me what the classic ABC challenge is?

Basically you just read a book with each letter of the alphabet in the title. So for A you would read Angelfall and just choose books that correspond with each letter of the alphabet. The hardest ones are X, Q, and Z. But it's just read a book that starts with each letter of the alphabet. Oh and you don't The or A at the beginning of the book title. So, The Wizard of Oz would be a W book not a T book. I hope this helps.

so are they books you've already read or you read them in order to complete the challenge?

You read new ones to complete the challenge. :)

Except, this one started at the beginning of the year, so you can probably count anything you've read in 2014 towards the list. The goal is to read one book with each letter this year.
