From Escape with Dollycas:
Details
This challenge will run from January 1st, 2019 until December 31st, 2019.
You can join anytime. You do not have to post a review of the book. Books can come from any genre.
You do not need to link up each spoonful.
Make a page or a post or a GoodReads shelf where you will keep track of your spoonfuls. I keep track of mine on my Challenge Page.
Crossovers to other challenges are allowed and encouraged!
It’s an alphabet challenge!!! The challenge is to read one book that has an author whose first name or last name starts with every letter of the alphabet.
So there are two different ways you can set up your own A-Z Reading Challenge.
A – How I plan to do it: Make a list on your blog from A-Z. Throughout the year, as you go along, add the authors with the book you read to the list. Towards the end of the year, you can check and see which letters you are missing and find authors/books to fit.
OR
B – Make a list now of 26 books, picking one for each letter of the alphabet.
For example:
A – Amanda Flower – Toxic Toffee (An Amish Candy Shop Mystery)
B – Lucy Burdette – A Deadly Feast: A Key West Food Critic Mystery
C – Sheila Connolly – The Lost Traveller: A County Cork Mystery
D – Denise Swanson – Leave No Scone Unturned (Chef-to-Go Mysteries)
Books can be read in any order and all formats – print – e-book – audio – are acceptable for this challenge!

I’m up for another try at reading one author from every letter of the alphabet. I’m not going to list out authors just yet, but hope to find all once I start reading.
