Sorry I missed seeing that, Amy.

That makes sense. This is a ya apocalyptic story.

No problem. I just didn't want you to start something for the challenge that you might not otherwise want to read.

Thanks. So far, I've been able to pick only things from my TBR. I'm sure I'll have to hunt farther afield when I run out of those, like for some of the early years when that's all that's left, but so far so good.

[LynnB]

I'll take J for name in title. Please :)

[Amy]

This list may be of help for the "character in title" category:
Books containing character names in the title

Based upon the rules we are following not all of the books will qualify, but there are certainly a number that will.

Please add W for name in title to my list. Thanks!

I checked out the link and found names in titles that would work for everything except the X. Even Z (ie. Zach) isn't really that difficult to find. Thanks for the link, Amy!

Glad to help!

[Kay]

I can do Name in Title: K

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Kay wrote: "I can do Name in Title: K"

It is yours Kay!

[LynnB]

I'm going to give up "W" for Name in Title. I started the book I was going to read and just cannot get reading it. Ugh.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

OK, Lynn. I will add it back to the list.

[Bea]

Would The Day Lincoln Was Shot work for L Name in Title? If so, I will take that one as I have the book out of the library.

[Bea]

I also have books for First Name F and First Name I, if no one else wants those.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Bea wrote: "Would The Day Lincoln Was Shot work for L Name in Title? If so, I will take that one as I have the book out of the library."

I think the final say from Tien was that it has to be the given (or first) name of a main character in the book. Since Lincoln is his sur name, I don't think it will work. :)

I can give you First name F and First name I, though.

[Bea]

Thanks, Lyn M. I wasn't sure about the Lincoln one. That is why I asked.

I will do F for Faye Kellerman and I for Isabel Allende

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Gotcha

Interesting, Bea. I hadn't chosen any yet (too many others to finish first), but those were exactly the authors I had been thinking would fit for those letters. Glad you're going to do them. :)

[Sherri]

Going to try Your House Is on Fire, Your Children All Gone for the Y title if I may.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Sherri wrote: "Going to try Your House Is on Fire, Your Children All Gone for the Y title if I may."

You have it, Sherri. BTW - I have heard that is a fantastic book!

[Susan]

I'll take author's first name X. I found two books by authors with the first name Alex that look good. One of them is even on this month's shelf.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Thanks Susan!

[Susan]

If Sophia wants to post The God Box, by Alex Sanchez, which she just read, I'll release my reservation for author's first name X so she can have it.

[Sophia]

I'll launch it just as soon as I recover from being hit in the Pages tower. ;)

[Susan]

I'll take name in title "Z", then. I know Zachariah didn't work, but I think Zahrah the Windseeker will.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Gotcha Sophia and Susan.

You sure can, Sophia. I will put you down for it. :)

[Sherri]

Might I have the O Name in Title? Thanks!

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

My reading has slowed due to health and work; so, I want to release First Name F & I. Anyone else have books they can read for those two?

I still have a book to read for Pages Tower before I can post here...and am concerned that my POTS partner not be left high and dry.

[Amy]

I can grab first name I for either Ilsa Bick or Inger Ash Wolfe. Both authors are on my to-read shelf.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

Thanks all. I am switching first name I to Amy and releasing first name F to anyone who can read it. Although I don't think it matters, much as everyone has pretty much forgotten about this tower, I think. There hasn't been any activity for quite a while.

[Bea]

Lyn M, I finished First Name G but need to do my recovery task before posting.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

I'm working on a recovery task, myself. ;P

[Susan]

I completed one of my reserved scripts (author first name O), and would like to reserve T for name in title.

Sorry Susan, for some reason I missed this before. My boys are here for a week, so my focus has been hit or miss :P I will cross of first name O as finished and put you down for name in title T. :)

No problem. No rush, really.
