Nice job Lanie! and your "Z" and "X" can be anywhere in the title, they don't have to be the first letter :)

[Nancy]

There is actually a book titled X. I read it last year for this challenge.

[Nancy]

Lanie, I just noticed your first book was Animal Farm and your last book was called Zoo.

[Lanie]

Lol. :D

[Victoria]

Well done, Lanie. Although, there are more books with an X in the title than you might think. There are even some with "X" at the start of the title.

[Jen]

Way to go, Lanie!

[Janie]

Getting closer to halfway now :)

Awesome, Jenny!

[Donna (BookDragonGirl)]

WOW! Great job Jenny!!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Thanks guys!

[Jen]

I'm so close! Just need J, N, & X. Any suggestions?

[Nancy]

I don't know what you like to read but those above I just came up with and I have read and enjoyed.

I always have problems with J's too!

I've realized through challenges like this that there aren't a lot of 'J' books. At least ones I haven't read before. lol. :)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I have to figure out a "J" book as well!

[Karen’s Library]

I have put aside for my J this year, per Nancy's recommendation!

I used one year and there's a Joe 2 to use for another year. :)

[Nancy]

I'm glad I was able help you out Karen, LOL.

I have 7 books to go.

:) You ALWAYS give me great book recommendations, Nancy! If you're reading it, chances are I'll like it so I usually go look it up and end up buying it too! ;)

I still have 10 books to go! I've been reading nothing but duplicate letters lately! :(

[Victoria]

Nancy: That's awesome! Good luck finding your last seven letters.

Karen: That's great. Hey, we're only half way through the year, so you still have plenty of time to read those last ten. Even if a mad scramble to find the last couple of books for the final couple of letters you need in December is required again. ;)

[Nancy]

Karen, I've been reading a lot of duplicates as well. There must be certain letters that are used a lot in book titles. I noticed S is one of them! LOL

[Victoria]

Nancy wrote: "Karen, I've been reading a lot of duplicates as well. There must be certain letters that are used a lot in book titles. I noticed S is one of them! LOL"

Yes, S is one of the easiest letters to get. I always find that J, U, X, and Y, tend to be the most difficult.

[Karen’s Library]

One year I found myself reading ALOT of I's!

[Nancy]

Maybe it's subconscious on our part. I want to read Swan Song and then I tell myself no it starts with an S! LOLOLOLOL

I put Six of Crows as my X. Another S book! I just need to read it.

[Karen’s Library]

Ohhhh that's a good X!!

[Nancy]

It's been on by to-read list at the library for a while, LOL.
