I finished Circe by Madeline Miller, I enjoyed it
2. Was it difficult to find titles that fit?
Not at all

2)I didn't think so until I realized I overlooked an 'A' on the original book I had picked out for this prompt.

Police, by Jo Nesbo

2. Was it difficult to find titles that fit?
It definitely was challenging. Most book titles tend to have the letter ‘t’.


I read :
1. A Book with a Title that Doesn't Contain the Letters A, T or Y: Recursion by Blake Crouch
Like Dark Matter I found Recursion to be a really interesting scify read and I thought it was unique and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I had some difficulty finding a book for this topic. For most of this year I was going to my library and choosing ones at random. A friend of mine pointed this out for me after I told her I was having trouble.

Personally? No, but I have lots of other options that work.

I re-read Catching Fire. Every year, I like to re-read at least one series.
2. Was it difficult to find titles that fit?
This prompt was easy to find and fill since I wanted to read this one at some point this year.

I read Mr. Fox by Helen Oyeyemi
2. Was it difficult to find titles that fit?
It was relatively easy to find something to fit. I am trying to read a book by every author (that I haven't read already) on the Abe List of 100 Essential Female Writers. I started looking around at books by these authors and I found this one. What was difficult was following the plot of this book.

Normally I'd say no but that's such an amazing book, I refuse to stand in the way of you reading it!

I just finished that book, and I found it so sexist that it actually made me mad.

I read Becoming by Michelle Obama. I rated it ALL the stars. :)

2. Was it difficult to find titles that fit?
No, I also have read Goldilocks (Laura Lam) and Drive this year and still have Gone, Swing, Go, Kindred, Inferno and Origin on my TBR!
