do you guys want to re-do this challenge next year and make it a re-occurring thing?
This was a tough challenge, hahaha! I don't think I'm gonna complete it.We could redo this challenge next year.
Thinking I would love to join a challenge like this7
Yeah, I need to look over my Challenge... i'm so close :)
When does this challenge end? I just joined the group and I'm interested in this challenge.
Ends end of the year but you can backdate to include any books you have read this year that fit
I'm having trouble with X and Z. Lol.
LOL! Dee, when you say Q X and Z have to be somewhere in the title, the word still has to make sense with 'A Misters Cat'. For instance, I read Quintana of Charyn, but no matter how I spin it 'The Ministers Cat is a Quintana Cat' doesn't really work, lmfao.(I'm struggling with J, Q, V, and Z.)
Q...you can read something with "Queen's" in the title. I really don't see how I'm going to do X and Z. Gah! It's maddening.
Yeah, I thought I had one like that but I read it last year.
Hmmm... what about "quick, quiet, or quaint?"
I'll definitely check that out. I tried just putting q in my search for my books and it didn't pull up anything.
I hear ya. I did that with "q" as well. You can always read a quick Harlequin... ;) That's what I'm going to do if I can't find anything quickly.
J, Q, X and Z in the title anywhere works ;) but bonus points if you can find a word that works ;)
If you like zombie books, that would be an easy title to get your 'z' :) X is a tough one! I was lucky to have just ordered a book with the word expedition in the title - it sorta worked, I think? I'm not too good with playing 'Minister's Cat' - what sounds okay with me may not pass as acceptable. I might be interested in doing this again next year. I have a zombie book that I haven't read yet LOL!
I'm almost finished. As said some letters have been very difficult, for Z I had a book with Zanzibar and for Q I had an old English word Quent (from Quentins) which means fifth!
LOL, I love Zombie books. But usually they don't actually say 'Zombie', but you're right. I could totally do My Life As a White Trash Zombie. I have that one, and didn't even think about it!I'll take my Quintana and forego bonus points, hahaha. That means I just need J and V.

OH, I saw that book and it looks really good! I'll have to see what you think of it when you finish.
How do you search for book titles containing needed letters on Goodreads? Or do you Google it?
No, I'm going into 'My Books' and on your right is a little gray 'search my books' section. You type your letter in there, and then I'm sorting mine by 'date read', putting everything without a date on the top.For J, I'm gonna do
, and for V I'm gonna reread
. (I loved Willing Victim, really great little erotica!)That will complete me! Okay, now it's time to buckle down!
That's a great way to find books. Thanks Wendy! I might just read White Trash for that reason. hehe!
Don't forget "Sex" or "Sexy" for X :)I read the non-fiction book "Sex with Kings" about the mistresses of European kings. It was fairly interesting. Although I am worried I am going to come up a couple books short this year. Too much grading to get done!!

So, are we going to try this again for 2013?? I feel like I need another go at it. :) And it is a great way to force someone to read a variety of books I think.
Since I'm new to the scene, I would like for this to happen in 2013. I'm in!! (Started the third reread of Outlander today)
I hope we repeat this challenge! I loved it. It helped me beat my Yearly Goodreads challenge.
I'm not opposed to redoing this challenge for the 2013 year.Let us hammer out a few things and we'll get a new one posted.
Horray! Excited to try this for 2013!
Give us just a couple days and we'll have new challenges posted for you. We're working out the specifics.
