[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Question: I am doing authors and since I read 2 Jennifer Brown and 2 Laurie Halse Anderson books this year can I use them for J, B, L, and A since there is first and last names or does it have to be different authors?

[Gisbelle]

Different authors would nice, but that's cool too.

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay. I will keep them for now and if I read a book with another author with that letter I will switch it. (: Thanks.

[Gisbelle]

That sounds like a plan :) you're welcome. Good luck! Author is a tough one. Last year I couldn't finish in time.

[Trisha]

I have a question. Does it have to be the protagonist for option C, or can it be any of the main characters? Like can Augustus be A for the The Fault in Our Stars even though Hazel is the protagonist?

[Mandiann]

I am doing authors too. I am trying to do just last names but I think this is going to make x and i really hard.

[Trisha]

Another question - if there are two protagonists in a series can I put them both in? Like, one for book one and the other for book two?

[Gisbelle]

Trisha ~ as long as the characters are significant in the books, it's fine. If they just pop in one scenes or so, it's not gonna work.

As for the second question, no. One book for each character.

[Gisbelle]

Mandiann wrote: "I am doing authors too. I am trying to do just last names but I think this is going to make x and i really hard."

I stuck with U

[Mandiann]

I plan to read something by Lisa Umber.

Gisbelle, I think you misunderstood Trisha's question. The way I understand it is that she wanted to use two books in the same series, ie/

Megan The Iron King
Puck The Iron Daughter
Ash The Iron Queen

Even though all three are from Megan's POV, Puck and Ash are main supporting characters that appear quite often.

[Gisbelle]

If it's a series, I don't see why not. I read too fast X|
