Task 25.8 - Beth F's Task: Backwards Alphabet Code

The Backwards Alphabet Code is very simple. All you have to do is make a list of all the letters in the alphabet, and then make another list right next to it, of all the letters in backwards order. Kind of like this...

A = Z
B = Y
C = X
D = W

...and so on. Please refer to the help thread for a complete listing.

NOTE: Books with the genres "Sequential Art", "Comics", "Comic Book", and "Manga" may be used.

The total combined page count for both books MUST be at least 500 pages.

NOTE: ebooks without print versions cannot be used for tasks requiring a specific number of pages. If you read an ebook or audiobook use the page count for the mass market paperback if one exists. If there is no mass market paperback edition, use the paperback edition and if no paperback is available use the hardcover edition.

For this task only, ignore the articles that begin a title: a, an, the.

Book 1 - Ignoring the articles "the", "a" and "an", read a book whose title begins with a letter in the left-hand column.

Book 2 - Ignoring the articles "the", "a" and "an", read a book whose title begins with the letter in the right-hand column that corresponds to the letter you selected from the left-hand.

For example:
(1) D = Dad Is Fat
(2) W = Wintergirls

(1) P = The Pact
(2) K = The Knitting Circle

(1) H = Heart of the Matter
(2) S = The Shining
