GOAL:
Going from A - Z, and using authors’ first or last names, read the alphabet. For "X" and "Z" you may use authors with those hard to find letters in their names. Unless, of course, you're a ‘purist.’
Yes, you may use an author twice, once with their first name, and again with their last. In that case, you still need to read two different books.
Duration: January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021
You may read in any order, start at any time of the year. You may 'back date' to the 1st of January, if you desire.
* Please Note: There is another challenge that is "open-ended" (not yearly) that is posted here.
