Romance Readers Reading Challenges discussion

M-A-Y

The idea is simple: you take the letters of the month, and for each letter you find a book which either has an author whose last name starts with this letter or a book which title starts with the given letter. Remember to disregard all the articles: a, an, the...

The duration of challenge is from the beginning of the month to last day, but you can post your list ahead of time if you want to.

Challenge Duration: May 1 - May 31, 2010 (Remember, don't start reading before the 1st)

It's a 4 letter month so this should be quick and easy, but there's that letter Y which can make it a bit tricky...
