January 2026 - June 2027

Let’s read books to spell out the books of the Bible.

Rules:
* You may spell out as many or as few books of the Bible as you like.
* Titles (articles don’t count) and authors' first or last initials (middle initials don’t count) may be used to match the letters in the books of the Bible.
* Q, X, and Z may be found anywhere in the title or author’s name.
* Each book counts for only one letter.
* Books may be any genre and any length.
* Please share the finish date for each completed book.
* Please post your completed books of the Bible as you go (instead of reposting the entire challenge at the end).
