Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ

geez, i am already starting to stress about finding a good "q" book. i am doing low octane/first names for the simple reason that i was reading an "a" and "b" first name when i decided to join the challenge.

i need a "q". also, any suggestions for some of less common letters. "x", maybe?

Quo Vadis.

I'm just stuck on Quentin Blake at the moment. Maybe he has some longer books you could use?

Actually, I searched for Quentin by author name, and Xavier and Xiao and got a few options. Haven't read any of them but is a possibility for you :)

I am reading an autobiography of/by Quincy Jones for my Q book. It is called Q: The Autobiography of Quincy Jones. It is coming up next on my list as I am on my P book right now. :)

i may read that, cherie. the only other thing i can find is a vampire-y type series, and that's not my thing. i also find a book called The Wrong Kind of Muslim( ) by qasim rashid that looks interesting. i am just starting on p, so i have a bit of time to choose.

how did you do that? i am having a hard time searching by first name.

I just clicked the filter by author radio button, and typed them in. I searched the whole names, not the letter. For Quentin I had to get through all the Roald Dahl books with Quentin Blake as an illustrator.

Not a perfect system, and especially as I find Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ search function the worst search function I have ever had the misfortune to use (really? you won't find The Garden of Evening Mists when I type garden of evening mist? I didn't realise not having an s is so confusing and illogical your computer can't make the leap with the 99% of the information! BAH!), but worked a little

I've moved this topic to the Year Long Challenge folder.

There are a few female authors with the first name Queenie. Again, not ever read any of them, but there's a few that look interesting.

Yeah, there are not a lot of authors out there whose first name starts with a Q. I had a hard enough time just finding a book title that sarted with a Q - that I wanted to read.

I did a Google search for "names beginning with Q" and it came up with 45 names.

I ran a GR search by author for Quinn and Quentin.
Here a few names that came up. Quinn Taylor Evans, Quinn Fawcett, Quentin Blake, Quentin Carter, Quentin Tarantino, Quentin Reynolds

You might find somethin to read from one of them. :) Hope this helps you, Lurk42.
