For those not familiar with the challenge, here are the rules:
Read 26 books with titles that begin with the letters of the alphabet.
Examples:
O - Opal
T - The Sun Dwellers or
S - The Sun Dwellers
For the letter "X or Z ", any book title with the letter X or Z in it is acceptable.
If the title contains the word THE or A it can be omitted if you want.
You can sign up anytime, and you can backdate books if you know when you finished it, as long as it was done in the year 2019.
ANY BOOK IS ACCEPTABLE, including graphic novels, novellas, etc.

It always amazes me when you can find books to fit the entire alphabet! Kudos! :)
I'm impressed not only that you actually DO this challenge, but that you always rock it and find something!
Rita & Jeanie:
Thanks! I enjoy the challenge of finding books for the letters. Most of the letters are easy, and only take as long as they do because I add the extra rule for myself that I can't use more than one title by any one particular author (not to mention, I also did the author version of the challenge this year, and added the rule for myself that I couldn't use the same book for both the author and title challenges). But some of the letters - especially things like "Q" and "Y" - are a real challenge to find books for that I both want to read and that fit the letter, especially after having done this challenge several years in a row now.
