A to Z Song Title Challenge

[jingles]

A - Z Song Title Challenge
Duration: Open

This challenge is original to SCC!



Thanks to Barb for this wonderful challenge suggestion!

We all have a favorite song or four, right? For this challenge we will do an A to Z challenge using the titles of our favorite songs, along with the first letter of each title word of the book you choose to read.

It works like this: Using the letters A to Z, make a list of your favorite songs using the first letter of the song's title to fill in the A to Z part. For the hard letters Q, X, Y and Z, the letter need only appear in the song title. Then to complete the challenge, you will read a book where the first letter of each title word can be found in the name of your song. There's no minimum word count, but all words do count (a, an, the, etc).

Here is an example:

A - American Pie (Song) = Port Mortuary (Book)|Patricia Cornwell
B - Blinded By the Light (Song) = Two By Two (Book)|Nicholas Sparks
C - Cool Night (Song) = Lilac Girls (Book)|Martha Hall Kelly
