July 2013 Reading Challenge!

[Amy (DemonKittie)]

I am going a little easier for this challenge and you can pick how easy or hard by your choice of word. Pick a dream vacation location and use the acronym to pick your books and spell that word.

Example words are:
Italy
Paris
Venice
Alaska
Tower of London
The Statue Of Liberty

You can use the letter in any part of the title if you like such as:

L - Living Dead in Dallas by Charlaine Harris
O - Once Dead, Twice Shy by Kim Harrison
N - The Nymphos of Rocky Flats by Mario Acevado
D - Speaker for The Dead by Orson Scott Card
O - The Lords of Salem by Rob Zombie
N - Going Nowhere by Kimberly Lauren

Enjoy!

[Jenelle]

sure! I think it took me longer to choose a place than anything, because I went from my book of the month list as a jumping off point :)

so I picked Cape Cod, as all of these books are either books of the month for July, or stuff I have been meaning to read and haven't gotten to yet...


C= Tent City

A= Noah's Ark

P= The Peacekeeper

E= Enclave

C= The Caves of Steel

O= Outpost

D= The Moon Dwellers

Not so much a vacation spot as a place I hope to end up.
