I haven't joined an actual challenge in quite a while, other than the Canadian Book Challenge which I haven't officially completed in a while, or the RIP challenge, which isn't a challenge for me when most of what I read is mystery and suspense books. Anyway. The challenge is now hosted at Carolina Book Nook; head there to sign up.
I participated in the What's in a Name for many years, from 2008 until 2014 when I DNF'd with 3/5 books read. But I'm feeling the need to make a list of possible books, and this is the perfect challenge for that. The topics this year, with my possibilities are:
- An ampersand – &
- Truth & Beauty - Ann Patchett;
- Love & Gelato
- Serpent & Dove
- An antonym
- City of Saints & Thieves
- An Irish Doctor in Peace and War
- 4 letters or less
- Girl by Edna O'Brien
- Gone by Lisa Gardner,
- A given/first name
- Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass by Meg Medina
- Still Alice by Lisa Genova
- Rebecca;
- Reference to children
- Lost Children Archive by Valeria Luisella
- How to Build a Girl - Caitlin Moran
- One of the 4 natural elements – water, air, fire, earth
- The Water Rat of Wanchai by Ian Hamilton
- Disappearing Earth by Julia Philips
- The Man Who Played with Fire
