November 2010 Reading Challenge

[Yz the Whyz]

November's Reading Challenge is called Paranormal Acrostic.

Duration: November 1 - November 30, 2010

You take the letters in the word P-A-R-A-N-O-R-M-A-L, for each letter you find a book which either has an author whose first or last name starts with this letter or a book which title starts with the given letter. If a book starts with the articles: a, an, the, you have the option of ignoring them or not.

As usual, you may post your list in advance but no reading until November 1st.

Happy reading, everyone.

You can read up to three books, that doesn't have a single paranormal element in its storyline.
