I would prefer that you put the title, even if you are claiming the letters from the author's name.
No need to put the title.

I would prefer that you put the title, even if you are claiming the letters from the author's name."

So, I start with the title, like this :: B-Bleach, Volume 1: Strawberry and the Soul Reapers, by Tite Kubo ???????

Is it correct, this time ???????????


.

Or, like Shirley's two books, both the book and the author need to have the same letter, somewhere ????????????

Yes

Both the book and the author don't need to have the start with the letter, only one or the other.

Ok.

Ok, I was confused. I was getting this mixed up with another challenge. You only need to put the author's name, not the book. I'll put in an example on the first post.

Mine just by accident had the letter, sorry if it led you astray. This one is a great challenge.
