I know, the title probably makes no sense. Well, I had a difficult time think of an idea for the September challenge. So, I've finally decided that the challenge is to read manga with titles starting with the first letters of manga we've read over the past few months. For example, for Skip Beat, the first letters of both words are S and B, you you would read two manga volumes, one starting with S and the other with B. There are 21 letters altogether and they are: S, B, B, B, G, A, C, H, K, O, H, S, H, C, A, B, S, A, L, C, O

So, the challenge is to read 21 manga with titles starting with those letters.

Kristen | 1392 comments I think this is a very interesting challenge! I'm in! Just to be clear, if I were to read four volumes of, I dunno, Black Bird, it would count for all four of the Bs, right? Also do we have to read the letters in order?

Yes, four volumes of Black Bird would count for all four B's. No, you don't have to read them in order, but I would appreciate that you either post which books you read in the order above or in alphabetical order for organization.
