B: The Body in the Lake by [auth..."

Agnieszka, you're already in...see your earlier post.

[Agnieszka]

Oops, thank you :-) Just deleted the second one :-)

[Sandra]

Is it just the first word in a title that counts? (Minus the articles)

[Jonetta]

Yes.

[Sandra]

I guess the title Mr. President will only count for "M"?

[Jonetta]

I think so.

[Sandra]

Seems like all my book titles either start with "W" or "M"! lol

[Jonetta]

I've been lucky so far.

[Sandra]

I've read 3 or 4 already that I can't use for this challenge because of duplicating letters. :(

[Sandra]

Not sure I'll ever complete this - all my book titles now start with letters I've already used. Using only the first letter of the first word in the title is hard. I've looked through my entire March reading list, and there's nothing I will be able to use. :(

[AliciaJ]

I'm having the same problem Sandra. Especially since I'm trying to use mostly non m/m books for this one. I haven't run across a single J book yet. :(

[Jonetta]

Alicia, any reason why you're not using m/m books? I'm using every genre.

Well done, Nikki!!! That was fast.

[Quynh]

Wow Nikki! Congrats. You're a fast reader :D

[Nikki ♥]

Thanks Jonetta and Quynh!

[Sandra]

Very nice, Nikki! Congrats on completing the challenge.

None of the books I'm reading now match letters I need to finish. I could go looking for books to complete it, but have too many other books to read on my schedule to do that right now.

[Quynh]

Same Sandra. Or I have books overlapping same letter.

[Sandra]

Quynh wrote: "Same Sandra. Or I have books overlapping same letter."

Yes! I have a lot of that. Seems most of my books start with one of a few letters. lol

There are people tagged in the first post, does that mean the challenge is only for them? Or can any of us join in ?
