We Love Lisa Kleypas discussion

Spell April Challenge

Duration - April 1st - 30th

A new month means a new month to spell! As with all our Not Too Challenging Challenges, you get to decide how to make this one work for you. The idea is to spell the name of the month, April, or what April means to you.

Some Ideas -

You might want to spell out April, or Flowers, or April Showers.... it's up to you.

Example -

B - Bad Moon Rising (Dark-Hunter, #18) - Sherrilyn Kenyon
R -
E - Eden, Cynthia - Deadly Fear
E -
Z - Zoe Archer - Warrior
Y -

Please post your status updates including the number of books you plan to read, if you know, and the number you've actually completed, like this -

3/14, 2/10, 3/9, etc...

The only restriction is that you can't begin reading before April 1st.

Congrats, UM Dhestiny!

Thanks, Lisa!!! I wasn't sure I'd be able to pull it off in time because I'm reading so many for the other April challenges. Only 5 letters in April, but making them fit... I wasn't sure! LOL

OOooh, that reminds me... May Challenges have to go up soon.

Congratulations, Dhes!!
