[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Oh my gosh, you all are superstars! I'm worried I won't complete this challenge :P

[Sherrie]

Thanks David! You will complete the challenge. I have faith in you. :-)

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Why thank you for saying that! You gave me faith in myself :)

[Caedy]

You can do it David! You are awesome! :D Also, bought Fire Country for my birthday (and plan on catching up on my unread stuff by you very soon!)

[DeAnna]

You can do it. You just might have to force yourself. Besides, it's only March. You've still got 9 months to go!

Thanks ;) I'll do my best!

[Denise]

You can also look on the letters in your to read list and and look which one you feel like reading, if you do that once in a while I'm sure you will complete the full list! (:

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Good idea, I also forget to do that and just read the book people have been recommending lately lol :P Peer pressure!

[Denise]

Haha most of the time I don't know what I want to read next so I just look what is most read or best rated, or the most pages or all opposites.

[Victoria]

It's still only March, so those who have several letters left still have plenty of time to finish the challenge. :)

Lol you're making a hard challenge even harder! You might want to consider Angelfall for A, it's spelled as one word ;)

[Lola]

yay I just added Fire Country to my list for this challenge :). As I just finished my re-read of Fire Country. The first book I read with an F this year :p.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Ooh yes, perfect! I need to write some Z and X books lol

[Victoria]

Tanya,
That's an interesting way to make it more of a challenge. Good luck with it!

David,
Yes, you do need to write some x and z books! I like zombie books, but it would be nice to have some Z options that aren't zombie books for those who don't, since it seems like most of the Z books out there are zombie themed.

[Denise]

Holy, I searched for z-words in English in my English-Dutch Dictionary and it's less then one page! The Dutch dictionary I own has 7 pages of z-words.. Why did I want to take the English titles?

But David, I've got a suggestion: "(the) Zebra and the....." you can make a child book of it and let me draw illustrations so they will let me go to the illustration-school-thing I want to go to haha ^^. That's a win-win-win-situation. And if you always wanted to write a child book a win-win-win-win-situation. You can make a series of it book 2: "the Xylophone of the Zebra" and I don't know which letters are hard anymore... Haha oh well I need my sleep anyway.

[Victoria]

I'd be happy to read a children's book about a zebra... I especially like the idea with the xylophone, since I think it's a cool word, LOL!

Lol!!! Sounds like a winner to me!!!!

Exactly! It could be a Z book that's not zombies but still dystopian or paranormal or something :)

[Victoria]

Yes. Exactly!

[Meaghan]

I promise a 5 star rating for both in order to finish this challenge! This rules said nothing against reading children's books...

[Beatrice]

Meaghan,
It's lucky for me children's books count, because a fair few of the books I read in general are children's books. My excuse is that since I write children's books I have to also read them, LOL!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Denise wrote: "Haha David, now I have Hall Of Fame stuck in my head, though I don't really mind. Haha - off topic --"

Lol!' Off topic is sometimes good, like now ;)

[Denise]

Haha I'm barely on topic lol
