Felicia | 15003 comments You can post your questions about The A to Z challenge here! :D

Questions:

Q: Should books be started at April?
A: Books that are started in March but finished in April can be posted in April for points. However, they cannot be used for a letter.

Q: is there any specific genre to follow?
A: Nope! You can read to your hearts content! :D Just gotta remember your covers are how you will be finding letters!

Lyra Creates | 5 comments Quick q: what if I'm reading a book that has S and W for objects and my partner is reading another book with different letters, how do we put them in chronological order according to alphabetical order?


message 7: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments You can only use one book for one letter. So you'll have to choose which letter you're going to use your book for. If you are reading a W book but the last book posted on your teams review thread is an S then you need to wait to post until the letters in between have been posted by whoever claimed those letters.

Does this answer your question?

Cindee | 2596 comments So the letter is for an object not book title?????


message 9: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments Exactly. You are using objects on the cover to find your letters.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 9905 comments How creative can we get? For example would https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

work for 'yellow letters'?


message 11: by Felicia (new)

Felicia | 15003 comments You can get as creative as you want. With the covers. So the picture. So if you were to remove everything regarding the title author name series name or if it says best selling author or anything like that. Take it off the cover and when it’s gone you can use anything else that’s on the cover.

Yes, you have to wait until the team completes the round of A-Z before posting for the next round.

Esther | 1829 comments If there is a person on the cover of a book, and their name begins with a certain letter, could that be used as an object? On the cover of my book, a girl is on the front named Zinnie. Since her name begins with Z, would it work for that letter?

I'm going to go with no on this one because the object would be 'Girl" or "Girls" on the cover. As for Z, don't forget that you can use other editions of the title. So if you have a book with an edition that has a Z word in it - you can use that.

Esther | 1829 comments Ok, thanks!

Celia Buell (semi hiatus) (celiareadsbooks) | 3944 comments For X, does the cover object have to start with it or just have it in it? For instance, if I read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Harry Potter, #2) by J.K. Rowling can I use "phoenix?"

So when claiming a letter the object has to start with that letter. For X, you can use any edition of a title - where the word has to start with X - or the author's first/last name starts with X.

If the br is within this group it will count. It doesn’t have to be with someone on your team specifically.
