Very true! And the more years you do the challenge, the less there is for those pesky letters! lol


message 7: by Shelby (new)

Shelby Suderman | 2182 comments FINALLY got the letters C and J! The C in particular was really bugging me. There've been books I knew I was going to read this year starting with C for so long but I just kept not getting to them!


message 8: by Shelby (new)

Shelby Suderman | 2182 comments Annd I've just started the second row for the letter 'S'. I kinda figured it would be a popular one.

I remember doing this challenge last year and I had so many books for some letter and then struggled to fine one for others...lol


message 10: by Shelby (new)

Shelby Suderman | 2182 comments I'm planning to do the Read What You Own challenge next year instead. Looking forward to not scrambling to find letters for that lol. Though I did find some new favourites like X.

I think I'll only be managing Title Challenge and not Author Challenge this year. Reading Stephen King all month threw Authors off big-time. lol

I made the same decision yesterday and I'm really happy I did. That challenge always makes me really stressed out and distracts me from reading the books I own. I will probably do the same thing for 2018.

I've been wanting to do this challenge for years, so I'm really glad I'm finally doing it, but I won't be attempting it again anytime soon.

Only 3 left!
