[Piyangie]

Thank you, Pink and Zoe. And Zoe, it is so nice of you to take time in suggesting the classics for missing letters. Really appreciate it. Thank you. :)

[Rosemarie]

Xingu is available as a free ebook. It is a short, entertaining story.

Thank you, Rosemarie. I will check on that to fill for letter X. I'm looking for short stories to finish the challenge as I have quite a few under my belt to finish for the year. :)

[Pamela]

I'll second Xingu as a good, quick submission for X. It's very entertaining.

Great job! What a nice list of classics. Love your Z choice--going to steal that one. :-)
