2021 A-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, or even a letter inside one of the words. We're pretty flexible so don't sweat it!

Articles (i.e. "a", "an', "the", "of", "in", etc.) can be skipped in titles. It does not have to be only Amish fiction, it can be any fiction or non-fiction. Whatever you read in 2021 will qualify!

I am sooo sorry Diane. 8-(
I thought I was deleting my duplicate comment and inadvertently deleted yours. Apparently I should NOT do things after midnight!
