The A-Z Reading Challenge

This challenge was too cool of an idea for me to pass up! It is hosted by the bookie blog The Thoughts of a Book Junkie. The challenge consists of reading twenty-six books that each represent a letter in the alphabet. I have been able to comprise a list where I won twenty-one out of the twenty-six. This also supports my goal of reading a large number of books that I already own this year.

Here are my twenty-six:

A The Archivist by Martha Cooley

B Bitter is the New Black by Jen Lancaster

C Confessions of a Triple Shot Betty by Jody Gehram

D The Dewey Decimal System of Love by Josephine Carr
