Btw, Blacktop Wasteland is written by S. A. Crosby, not Colson Whitehead. And the book ROCKS!

A: Animal Money by Michael Cisco
B: Blacktop Wasteland by Colson Whit..."
Thank you for correcting Stephanie, I first noted the titles only without authors and must have been confused then. There were so many more titles on my list, among them Harlem Shuffle. It was really hard to narrow down, but at some point I was thinking on doing a double challenge.
I like your (half) list too :), The Fisherman is one of my all time favorites, I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you Michael, I've got my fingers crossed for you and everyone here!

See you all in the next year, happy New Year! 🎇
* status update December 13th, reading my Å now, and still have my Q and V left. I'm optimistic though :D
I'm trying to go for 29 - including my native language's (danish) letters Æ, Ø, Å using the same rule about just being a part of title. I'm not especially confident I'll reach the goal, as I don't like reading books in Danish, but a challenge isn't supposed to be easy all the way right? Lol
Question: is it a common rule here that titles starting with 'The' it's the word after that counts for first letter?
A: The Adversary
B: Bus Driver Man
C: Carnivore
D: Don't Kill the Dog: A Short Horror Story
E: Echo
F: The Family Upstairs
G: The Ghosts of Northgate: Book 2 of The Ghosts of Northgate trilogy
H: Hex
I: The Inheritance
J: Just Like Mother
K: Kisscut
L: Left to You
M: Man, Fuck This House
N: Nothing But Blackened Teeth - (hate this one with a passion)
O: One by One
P: Pieces of Her
Q: The Masque of the Red Death (i listened to the audiobook, but admittedly I think my mind might have drifted away, ad I didn't see the ending coming...need to do it again some day)
R: The Rats
S: Stolen
T: Twelve Nights at Rotter House
U: Undone
V: Viral Lives
W: The Woman in the Woods
X: Exits A collection of contemporary urban legends
Y: Your Life or Mine
Z: Baker's Dozen
Æ: Savnede Sjæle ( The Missing Ones
Ø: Ø
Å: Stjålne Piger ( The Stolen Girls )

A: The Apartment by S. L. Grey

C: Come Closer by S..."
Thanks! I’m also on a book non-buying challenge so I had to pick from books I already own! Which made it pretty easy. I figure I’ll put a little check mark or something next to a title after I actually read it.

Yes, it's a common rule for English that definite and indefinite articles (the, a, an) are excluded for alphabetization purposes.
