Michael My titles are selected, and I will update them as I read them. Luckily we can use the first letter of any word in the title, and even series names, which helped with a few of the letters, especially 'X'. I've taken some liberties with the formatting of the titles because I like my letters to line up all in a row...

I'm excited about this list - time to start reading!!

message 76: by Michael (new)

Michael Do series names count? For example, Dawn (Xenogenesis, #1) is part of the Xenogenesis series, but none of the books in the series actually have the word "Xenogenesis" in them. What do you think?

Yep, for this challenge you can use the title or the series name, but not the author's name.

These are the rules according to Sheri's post, Dec 19, 2012 11:21am:

... you can use any word in the title...

example- "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" can be used for D, O, S, A, or B


Hope this helps!
