01. A book with a main character whose name starts with A, T, or Y

[Pamela, Arciform Mod]

If you want a book that includes all 3 (I'm trying to find one)- Catch-22 does. Unfortunately, I've read it a number of times.

[Veronica]

I read Clap When You Land for this prompt. It is highly rated and I can see why. It is, I believe, the first book I've read written in verse which took me a while to get into the rhythm but once I did, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I just discovered The Five Wounds on Overdrive.
It's being featured on "Together We Read" from Feb 7 - 21. It's the story of Amadeo, who lives with his mother Yolanda, and is joined by his pregnant teenaged daughter, Angel.
This would also work for topic #43: a book set in a small town or rural area.

And there's Tíve, Yolanda’s uncle and keeper of the family’s history-- you get A T and Y!

[Guylian]

I read The Christie Affair by Nina de Gramont.

[Dana]

Just finished Alice's Adventures in Wonderland for the first time.

[Tracy]

I had everything planned out but this seems to be the year that I'm slotting in random books as I read them. My original plan was A History of Wild Places, but I just finished The Grace Year (main character Tierney) and loved it! If I keep up my pace the rest of the year maybe I can get to my actual plans :-)

[ANB]

I chose Gormenghast (I finished Titus Groan before I started this challenge and... for all that he's the titular character, Titus is really not in it very much because he's a baby at the time.)

[Joy D]

For this prompt, I read:
Adam Bede by George Eliot - 4* - My Review

[Laura]

What are you reading for this prompt, and do you have any recommendations?

I am reading Unforgivable Acts: A Legal Thriller by Laura Snider. The main character's name is Ashley. I also follow (and love) a series by G.K. Parks in which the main character is named Alexis Parker.

[Pamela, Arciform Mod]

someone mentioned How High We Go in the Dark by Sequioa Nagamatsu which has all 3 (although the book doesn't really have main characters). The Y was hard- most books seem to have an A or a T but to find a book with a Y and also a T and A was hard!

If I had failed to find all three, I was going to read The Hidden Palace which at least has a A and Y.

[Shannon]

I am reading The Sentence by Louise Erdrich. I love her books and the main character in this one is named Tookie.

[Kira]

You're going to love it! For next year's challenge, I'm going to nominate "A book that Tookie recommends" (the publisher has a list: http://harpercollins.com/audio/thesen...)

[Madelynn]

For this prompt, I read The Grace Year. The main character is named Tierney.

[Stacey]

I recently finished Hope Valley by Haviva Ner-David about the unlikely friendship that develops between a Jewish-Israeli and a Palestinian-Israeli woman in the Galilean valley that separates them. Tikvah (which means hope in Hebrew) is one of the character's names.

[Barbara]

by Amy Harmon

It wasn't my cup of tea, but if you're into Historical Romance, you should read it!
Some recommendations I have for you guys are:

Annie
The Shining
The Princess Diaries
The Diary of a Young Girl

[Siobhan]

I read The Lotus Palace by Jeannie Lin, where one of the leads is called Yue-Ying. Such a good book!

[Adam]

Starting Anna Karenina.

[Azuki]

I just finished The Sari Shop Widow where the main character is named Angali.

[Nicola]

I keep missing this challenge! I'm mostly buried in university work but I'm going to make time for this. I have read some books this year so I'll start back filling from those :-)

For this first task I think I will make my 'character' the House of York from the war of the roses :-)

Pamela, so am I! I loved The Sentence. She has a great back list that I now want to read too.

[NancyJ]

I had a lot of options for this, but after moving things around I chose these two (if I can finish two whole rounds):

The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver, "Taylor" and her daughter "Turtle"

The People We Keep by Allison Larkin, "April"

[Pam]

I decided to go with a book that had the name in the title and read Vincent and Theo: The Van Gogh Brothers.

[Evelyn]
