The purpose of the A to Z challenge is to read through the alphabet by Title or by Author, or both if you’re really ambitious!
The rules:
- Author must be by last name
- You may exclude a, an and the from the title
- Books can be in any format
- Books can be any genre
- Books can be used in other challenges
- Books must be read from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013 (books maybe started in December 2012, as long as it’s finished in January 2013)
- Review the book that you’ve read. It does not have to be a full review, a sentence or two on Goodreads is more than sufficient.
At the end of the year I will select two winners.
- Prize #1 – One book up to $10 from Amazon or The Book Depository
- Winner will be selected at random from list of all participants
- Prize #2 – One book up to $15 from Amazon or The Book Depository
- Winner will be selected at random from list of participants who completed the challenge (if you complete both the author and title challenge you will receive two entries)

ReplyDeleteIt's so funny you are commenting right as I'm compiling a list of what books I own already vs which I'll have to buy and which are coming out in 2013 to cover all the letters of the alphabet! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to it even more now because my mom last night decided to join me on this challenge. Because she doesn't blog or anything like that I will put her progress along with mine. I'm sure along the way she and I will end up reading some of the same books from time to time.
Thanks!
