I can't remember what was decided in a case like this:Mette Ivie Harrison
Can the Ivie count as an I?
I don't see why not.Although in that case all initials would count. eg. D.H. Lawrence could be used for D, H or L.
It is not a name I would use but then I don't think the I is a tough letter to find an author or title. Maybe that's just me but I can understand why you want to and so I have no objections.I don't think I will be joining the october word challenge, because I have ordered some books to help me finish my a-z challenges which I then of course have to read and I don't believe I can use them in this challenge. Maybe next month.
I really enjoy finishing the Word of The Month challenges. I've been neglecting the A-Z challenges because of it - the books I got for them are staring at me accusingly from their place on my night stand.
Maybe it's just because for the book A-Z I just have one book to go and got that one yesterday and for the author A-Z I just have three to go. One of them I got today together with another book that according to bookdepo was by an author named Young but is by an author named Reynolds. So I am a bit unhappy. Can I sue them for puting the wrong name on their site? It's not that I don't want to read this book but I can't use it in any challenge that I can think of.Anyway It means I only have to read 4 more books to finish these challenges and that takes precedence for me. It isn't that I don't like the word of the month challenge because I do and everytime we vote I really try to pick a word that matches what I have lined up but then something comes up and another challenge takes precedence. I did complete a couple in the beginning of the year, maybe because then everything will fir in the A-Z challenges I don't know.
By the way I bought X-Isle on your recommendation. I will probably start it this weekend.

You use the first letter of a book you have read in October (A, an, the.. you can leave out). Or you can use the first letter of the Authors name or Surname.
Good luck everyone!
