2018 A to Z Reading Challenge

[Barbara]

Is anyone interested is trying the A-Z challenge again this year?

Here's how it works:

You want to try to use each letter of the alphabet for a book you read. It could be the title or author's first or last name. We're pretty flexible so don't sweat it! It does not have to be only Amish fiction, it can be fiction or non-fiction also. Whatever you read in 2018 will qualify!

I'm in again this year!
